Minor offers a cross-disciplinary look at a relevant topic: SEXUALITY
BY NORA SIMON nsimon@kansan.com
The University made a human sexuality minor available beginning this semester through the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program.
John Younger, director of the WGSS Program and co-coordinator of the human sexuality minor, said he thought adding this minor would make students conscious of how sexuality can be expressed in many diverse ways by different people.
"It heightens your awareness of the construction of sexuality," Younger said. "Since sexuality is socially constructed, our expectations of sexuality change over time, and they certainly differ in different cultures."
Previously, courses exploring human sexuality's role in various parts of society were divided across the University, with no formal organization or program of study.
Now, the WGSS Program has integrated many disciplines into one cohesive program of study, including anthropology, classics political science, communications and history.
the WGSS Program and that the issues were important for life after college.
Kati Elmore, Wellington senior, is already a women's studies major and is now working toward the minor. She said she thought that the minor helped expand the topics already being explored by
"This minor, I think, is helping us take classes and learn things that can be applied to the real world," Elmore said. "I was interested in it because of what I want to do after I graduate. I'm really interested in talking to high school students or maybe lobbying against abstinence-only education. The more you can learn about human sexuality, the more you can teach about it."
18 hours of sexuality courses, research or other work, according to the WGSS Program Web site. The first required course is a sexuality survey course. Students can choose between "Health and Human Sexuality" in health, sport and exercise science, "Human Sexuality in Everyday Life" in social welfare and "Human Sexuality" in psychology.
Kelsey Sewell, Leawood senior, said she would start working on an undergraduate honors thesis about men and women's sexual expectations for themselves and their partner during sex.
"Other people should want to participate because sexuality affects everyone, and the more you know, the more you can relate to other people," she said.
Maggie Horigan, Manhattan freshman, said she had hoped to major in human sexuality and was excited to hear about this new minor.
She said getting a minor in human sexuality interested her because she would like to study the subject in the future, after finishing her undergraduate degrees in psychology and women's studies.
"I find it fascinating that something so natural is so taboo to so many people," Sewell said. "Many people have problems communicating about it, which can lead to problems in their relationships, and if sex could be more normalized so that it was as easy to talk about as something like business or psychology. I think a lot of people would have an easier time being comfortable with their sexuality."
The minor can be extremely beneficial to students of all majors, not just those interested in women's studies. Elmore said.
The minor requires at least
"I think it's good to know why your body is reacting to the interactions you're having," Horigan said. "It's good to have a grasp on your own sexuality."
Studying sexuality across many different subject areas, cultures and eras gives students the chance to look at their own society from a fresh perspective, Younger said.
"Sexuality is so much of what we do and who we are," Younger said. "Studying sexuality then becomes a very powerful tool for studying society."

WOULD YOU RATHER...
Would you rather have sex with Marilyn Manson or White Owl?
"White Owl because I've got the thunder and he'd make it rain!"
Would you rather have sex with Sen. Barack Obama (D-III.) or Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.)?
"Barack Obama, because he is younger, cuter, would perform better and is not 72."
