Our daughter seemed pleased with the C she had received in her human-sexuality course. "If I had gotten an A or a B, Daddy would have worried," our daughter explained. "And if I had gotten a D, I would have worried."
A funny story, said Dennis Dailey,
professor of social welfare, of a
newspaper clipping on his office door.
Unfortunately, it's also painfully true
When it comes to teaching people about human sexuality, "the notion is, if you keep them dumb, they won't do it," he said.
Dailey, who teaches a course on human sexuality, doesn't agree.
"Almost 80 percent of us have sexually repressive childhoods," he said.
Both courses are more popular with KU students than they were about 10 years ago. There are long waiting lists to be admitted into the classes each semester.
Phil Huntsinger, associate professor of health education, teaches another human sexuality course. He aims to help students understand their own sexuality and to help them accept the sexuality of others.
In his course, he said, he tries to convince students that they have the right to be sexual beings.
Both professors say their classes are popular because college students, who are at crucial junctures in their lives, have more questions and concerns about sexuality than many people realize or admit.
"A lot of them are really hungry to learn about sexuality." Dailey said. "Many of them will pick the person they'll spend their lives with while they're here. They need to learn about their sexuality."
He said he didn't think that today's students were more educated because of the sexual revolution of the 1970s.
"You can't tell me that there has been a sexual revolution," he said. "There's more openness, yes, but they have the same level of knowledge, the same level of guilt, and the same level of shame as before."
Hunters views it as an educational problem.
"People away from here assume that college people are so scared to talk about sex," Huntsinger said. "They're not. They have a lot of questions."
Very few people receive any sex education in high school or junior high school, and if they do, it is minimal, he said. Kansas does not require sex education in its public schools and keeps no figures on how many school districts teach it.
"A lot of guys haven't heard of that stuff except from their buddies," he said. "They've heard jokes about it, but that's all."
Many questions concern basic information about topics such as birth control. Huntsger said.
Maja Materic, Wichita senior majoring in computer science, who is taking Dailey's course this semester, said her high school sex education was typical of most people's. The boys and girls were taken into separate rooms and talked to, she said.
She said she thought her parents also were typical when discussing sexuality.
"You always wondered what the boys heard," she said.
"My mom was very open about it,
and my dad was closed up," she said.
When洪少衡studied at University of Manas in 1973, he helped create the health education ma
jor. A sexual education course was included in the program, he said.
Over the years, the class has changed its emphasis from methods of teaching sex education to general information for students who are interested in the subject of sexuality.
Huntsinger, who has four grown daughters and describes himself as family oriented, said he tried to be perfectly frank with the students he taught in his human sexuality courses each semester. Many of them see him as a father or older brother figure to whom they may come with personal problems and questions.
The class covers almost every aspect of sexuality, from anatomy and physiology, to research on human sexual responses, which have been done by Masters and Johnson in the last 20 years.
Class lectures and discussions range from birthing procedures to abortion, and from gender roles to sexual disorders.
Renee McGhee, Lawrence senior majoring in chemical engineering, is taking Huntinsinger's course partly because she wants to attend medical school. The more she knows about physiological and psychological aspects of sexuality, the better she will relate to patients, she said.
She conceded that the course had one drawback.
"Every time you say, I'm taking sex ed," everyone immediately lauds." she said.
Dailey, who has about 150 to 200 students in his human sexuality classes each semester, spends a small part of the semester on anatomy, birth control and sexually transmitted diseases. The rest of the time he spends on psychological aspects of human sexuality.
His goal, Dalley said, is to help people become sexually healthy.
Dailey said he was very open about what he said in class and how he said it.
"Most students are really happy to have an adult talking to them so openly about sex," he said.
He doesn't care whether his students agree with what he calls his strongly feminist views.
Instead, he said. "I tell them, 'I have my ideas, you have yours. Take the information I'm giving you and do with it what you want.'"
Mataric agreed that Dailey didn't promote his own views or premarital sex.
Dailey, who said he was the only certified sex therapist in Douglas County, regretted that students had few places to get sexual counseling on campus. Although Watkins Hospital, the psychology department and the University Counseling Center all offer general counseling, KU does not have a sex clinic as some universities do.
He is certain that KU needs such a clinic because of the number of students who ask him for help with troubled relationships or sexual disorders, he said.
Mataric is taking Dailey's class with her boyfriend, a practice that Dailey encourages.
Many people asked questions in class, Mataric said. Students also may put anonymous questions in a box to be answered.
Mataria said class discussions helped her and her boyfriend talk about their views, especially about topics such as stereotypical gender roles and intimacy.
"The whole point of the class is to make people feel more comfortable." she said.
