I am shocked...shocked to find sex being discussed and sex acts being performed by healthy verile young adults put in close co-ed quarters. It is obvious that we need to go back to having seperate male and female education institutions.
So that's the role of state-run universities now, eh?
That's patently stupid.
Their agenda is learning how to have safe sex and being responsible about different sexual situations. Learning how to openly communicate with sexual partners, whether potential or ones you already have. The titles are "outrageous" to attract an audience. The sessions are subject oriented in a way to discuss different sex related topics and what some specific health and safety concerns are and just how to have better communication and social interactions when someone is interested in those specific sexual areas. It isn't like college students aren't thinking about doing things, if they haven't already done them so there might as well be someone helping them learn how to do these things in a way that will help them, either reduce their risk of disease or unwanted pregnancies or enter into better, healthier, stronger relationships.
why is that?
This is what you want to believe. You don't have the slightest idea whether it's actually true or not.
This might very well be a "bait and switch" meant to lure college students in with outrageous titles. However, it could just as easily be "exactly what it says on the tin," and be nothing less than some perverted glorification of everything having to do with modern hook-up culture, literally instructing students on the proper "etiquette" of modern promiscuity.
Frankly, I'm betting that it's going to be both; most likely leaning roughly 80/20 in favor of the latter.
Either way, as another poster pointed out elsewhere, where is the "Successful marriage week?" When will that be scheduled on the academic calendar?
We can have classes on "How to negotiate threesomes," but no classes on "How to keep a lively sex life in marriage?"
I guess those kinds of things just aren't important enough to merit mention, right? :roll:
Again, regardless of the instructors intent, there is an obvious political and cultural agenda at play here. That much is undeniable.
I'm not saying those titles don't actually deal with what they say and actually present that stuff. I'm saying that they do it while including ways to maintain safe and healthy relationships, and not just physically healthy, but also emotionally and mentally healthy relationships. Too few people in the US really know how to talk about their sexual needs. I'll admit I'm guilty of this even. I am only now really breaking out of some of my comfort areas when it comes to sex. But that is why these sort of workshops are great to present to young people. They aren't telling them to do these things, but rather, if they are thinking about doing these things or already doing them, then they should know some stuff about how to make it better overall, including not just more pleasurable but also more communicative and building a healthier and stronger relationship with these things.
They aren't telling them to do these things
You've got to be kidding.
Okay, so you're basically arguing this is exactly what I said it was. :lol:
It's a propaganda piece meant to indoctrinate students into the Left Wing cultural delusion that promiscuity and understanding of sexual perversion are "good" and "healthy" things, which are essential to a person'semotional well being. They simply happen to be covering their asses with their shareholders and the parents of their student body by including some token elements involving "safe sex" as well.
I'm sorry, but I agree with the Conservative students on this one. It is disgusting, and the motivations of the people responsible are beyond transparent.
Again, they apparently think it's perfectly acceptable to have an officially sanctioned "sex week," and teach courses on "How to negotiate threesomes," and "How to get laid." However, never in a million years would it occur to them to teach a seminar on something actually useful in the long term, like monogamy or marriage.
As far as they are concerned, and the Left is general is concerned, such issues are irrelevant, and barely worth considering.
And for the record...
Talk about speculation based on personal beliefs.
There is nothing wrong with teaching college students about having safe, varied sexual encounters, and at the same time, teaching them to build stronger, healthier sexual relationships. In fact, not doing this is why we have so many frickin prudes in this country who feel that talking about sex is going to create problems such as more unwanted pregnancies and/or more STDs. This has been proven wrong. Talking about sex is the best way to prevent these things.
Trying to make young people fear sex doesn't actually help anything and creates major problems with self esteem, especially in the bedroom within a committed relationship. Teaching them to have safe and healthy sex is a good thing. Talking about it, including talking about how to make sex better, how to talk about what they want from certain sexual encounters and how they can feel more pleasure from them, helps them build better sexual relationships, and stronger relationships overall.
Wow, way to completely miss the point entirely.
Liberal academia is such a wholesome and productive way to prepare yourself for a career nowdays. Where do I sign my daughters up for this?!
The presence of a dedicated "sex week" would seem to suggest that this more than a mere niche interest. It would appear to be something endorsed by the school administration.
So if the University sponsored a Holocaust Museum that showed life in a camp, or the collaborators in other European nations, the role the Catholic Church had in it... would you claim the University is endorsing mass murder on an industrial scale????
You seem to suggest much without any real proof, just a partisan line of sight...
the role the Catholic Church had in it
Are they going to give out free Swastika armbands and include courses with titles like "How to search prisoners for hidden valuables," or "How to cook Jews without being a Nazi?"
Because teaching how to give head is just like teaching how to cook Jews
It is certainly teaching and advocating sexual behavior, and within an overtly promiscuous context, no less.
Again, at the end of the day, this would be absolutely no different than having them teach a class on popular binge drinking or recreational drug usage techniques, and slapping some ridiculous title like "How to do a keg stand without throwing up" or "How to score high quality coke without having to go to the bad side of town" on the course.
Yes, there is something inherently promiscuous about blow jobs.
Because blow jobs are just like binge drinking and drug use.
Outside of marriage or a committed relationship? Yes, and HELL yes.
Nope. Not necessarily
Many college students are married or in a committed relationship
Sooo... Yea. Again...
Yes. About 7% are married and another large portion will marry someone they date at college
So I was right. "Many college students are married or in a committed relationship"
College students still often find spouses on campus
First off, even going by your own stats, 93% of college students aren't married.
Secondly, as of 2014, only 25% of the Millennial generation - roughly half of which is now in its late 20s or early 30s, BTW - is married.
Yea... Nice try, bud. :lol:
and why do you find the university to be compelled to only offer instruction which is designed with marriage or monogamy in mind?First off, even going by your own stats, 93% of college students aren't married.
Secondly, as of 2014, only 25% of the Millennial generation - roughly half of which is now post-grad, and well into its late 20s and early 30s, BTW - is married.
Yea... Nice try, bud. :lol:
Again, the simple fact of the matter is that absolutely no part of this so called "sex week" was designed with marriage or monogamy in mind.
and why do you find the university to be compelled to only offer instruction which is designed with marriage or monogamy in mind?
My claim referred to married or in a committed relationship
Learn to read, and try to remember that it was *you* who made the first reference
And try to remember that there are many college students who are not millenials. I know it hard for a millenial to realize that they're not the be-all and end-all of everything, but I have faith in you. You can do it
