UNIT 1: Social and Cultural Foundations
What We Get Wrong About Black Women's Sexuality, Tamara Winfrey Harris, Cosmopolitan, 2016
Women’s sexuality has historically been defined through the eyes of the dominant power culture – white, cisgender, heterosexual and male. Although women of all racial and ethnic backgrounds may face similar types of discrimination, African-American and Black women are uniquely stereotyped as hypersexual – which has a significant impact for many on how they both see themselves as sexual beings and manage their sexual relationships.
Do Boys Face More Sexism Than Girls? Christina Hoff Sommers, Huffington Post, 2013
This article focuses on how boys and girls are treated in school. She shows the many ways that the school experience is more unsuitable for boys than for girls.

UNIT 2: Biological Foundations
Advances in Male Hormonal Contraception, Costantino Antonietta et al., Indian Journal of Medical Research, 2014
The vast majority of contraceptive methods currently available in the world are designed for cisgender girls and women, which ends up putting a greater responsibility for sexual decision-making in different-sex couples on the female partner.

The Female Viagra, Undone by a Drug Maker’s Dysfunction, Katie Thomas and Gretchen Morgenson, The New York Times, 2016
With so much attention paid to and money spent on creating medication for erectile dysfunction, it had been anticipated that a medication that could address one type of sexual dysfunction affecting cisgender women would be met positively – but it was not. Katie Thomas and Gretchen Morgenson explain the issues that had such a negative impact on Addyi’s potential for success from the outset.

What Is Behind the Declines in Teen Pregnancy Rates? Heather D. Boonstra, Guttmacher Policy Review, 2014

How We Can Improve Sex Ed for Boys, Justin Cascio, The Good Men Project, 2013
Much of the formal sexuality education being provided today is done with the needs of girls and women in mind. As a result, boys and men are seen as an afterthought, and transgender youth are ignored altogether. We must do better in being more exclusive of those who are not cisgender and female -- but how?

This Is What Sex Ed for the Intellectually Disabled Looks Like, Monica Heisey, Broadly, 2015
People living with intellectual disabilities are often ignored; when programs do include young people with IDs, the focus tends to be exclusively on avoiding sexualization and coercion. This article discusses what kinds of programs work for youth who are not seen as sexual beings in the first place – in an effort to see people with disabilities as people and not their disabilities.

ves. In discussing how women with disabilities can be misrepresented as helpless, fragile flowers or fetishized for their particular disabilities, these five women correct myths and misinformation about how they manage dating and sexual relationships.
UNIT 5: Gender and Sexual Diversity
Gender Fluidity Has a Toxic Masculinity Problem, Nico Lang, The Daily Beast, 2016
Although gender fluidity is starting to become more discussed in population culture, and in some places, more accepted, the extent of that acceptance is often different based on the sex a person was assigned at birth. Someone who was assigned “female” at birth but who identifies as male, genderqueer or agender, is often given far more leeway than when someone who is assigned “male” at birth and identifies anything other than that.

This piece responds to 10 excuses people often give for not using condoms during sex.
The Evolving Concept of Older Adult Sexual Behavior and Its Benefits, Maggie L. Syme, Generations, 2014
People are living longer, which means they are continuing to engage in shared sexual behaviors into much older age. Ageist beliefs about who can and should be in sexual relationships has led older adults to be asexualized. As a result, healthcare and other providers rarely if ever discuss sexuality-related issues with older adults, leaving these adults without the information and support they need to continue to remain sexually healthy and happy during this life stage.

UNIT 7: Sexuality and Social Issues
Obergefell v. Hodges, United States Supreme Court, 2016
At the end of 2014, 35 states and the District of Columbia had legalized same-sex marriage. The U.S. Supreme Court decision the following year, Obergefell v.

Less to Do with Marriage, More to Do with Equality, Elizabeth Schroeder, drschroe.com, 2015

25 Years of Transphobia in Comedy, Meredith Talusan, BuzzFeed, 2016
Historically, transgender women have been the ill-conceived targets of jokes in movies created primarily for boys and men.

Sentenced to Abuse: Trans People in Prison Suffer Rape, Coercion, Denial of Medical Treatment, Zoe Greenberg, Rewire, 2015
Being incarcerated as a transgender person is far more complex and complicated than it is for cisgender inmates.

Many come to regret that decision.

And Boys Too, ECPAT USA, 2013
While there has been some increased awareness about sexually exploited boys in the U.S. over the past few years, sexually exploited boys are often missed as victims, seen instead as exploiters, pimps and buyers of sex, or as active and willing participants in sex work.

ECPAT-USA discusses specific ways this can and should change.
