PHIL 201 - Philosophy of Sex and Love
Students taking this course will learn to engage with a variety of important and puzzling issues related to sex and love. They will read philosophical texts that grapple with issues such as what it means to sexually objectify someone, what a sexual orientation is, the ethics of sex work, the nature of love and friendship, the value (or disvalue) of marriage/monogamy, and others still. Students will develop and refine their understanding of these issues by engaging critically with a variety of points of view concerning them. Through this process, students will gain useful tools for reflecting carefully and critically on some of the most important issues in many people¿s lives - those relating to sex and love - and they will have the opportunity to apply these tools in written work.
