What can I expect from a Human Sexuality college class? (besides the obvious)

Asked by rockfan (14632points) June 20th, 2017 from iPhone

And for those who have taken it, how was it? I’m taking it this fall. I’ve heard from many people that some professors attempt to embarrass the entire class in order to break the ice before talking about extremely sensitive topics.

I took it in college. It wasn’t all “OMG this is a condom going on a cucumber”. Mostly shit about gender roles and so on.

And there could be things to break the ice. My econ 201 professor tossed panties at the class once.

And when I was in college nobody had laptops in class. And smartphones wouldn’t be a thing for a decade.

My god. Teachers must be so miserable now.

In a college course, they figure most students know the basics. But they talk about arousal, and different way people are aroused. And they will discuss a lot of different kinks and fetishes and arrangements and combinations.

I would imagine they’ll also talk about consent being crucial and date rape drugs.
