Sex in the City

1.00 credits · Undergraduate

This course addresses how cities have fostered both commercial and noncommercial sexual cultures, sexual communities, and sex districts over time. Students will examine the histories of male and female prostitution, the development of non-heterosexual urban communities, cultures of urban romance, visual representations of sex and cities, and the histories of gender, race, class, politics and culture that structure these issues of sex in the city.
