Our final unit explored sexuality and the state; or, specifically, how sex and sexuality are discussed and policed both at the state and private level. For this final unit paper, I would like for you to venture an original argument that demonstrates your own understanding of how sex and sexuality are policed and/or negotiated, using the materials from Unit III. once those words are out in social space, there are reactions to those evocations like censorship, violence, and legislation, but there is also acceptance, world-making, and community building. I am looking for you to make sense and make connections between and among the articles that we read for the final unit. What do they all mean, together?
We covered topics such as obscenity, scholarship and dirty work, policing sexuality, sexuality and state violence (like Guild Press and Womack), and social policing. What do these all mean together? What do they all demonstrate about Critical Sexuality, both past and present? You will be required to bring at least four articles into conversation together. As with other unit papers, no outside research nor use of digital assistance like ChatGPT. You will be graded based on your use of course content to support your claim and argument.
One example of an approach would be to use Kiernan and Rubin to consider what happened to Karl Andersson and Louisa Allen. Another approach might be to consider “Dirty work” as it applies to articles like Allan, Irvine, Andersson, and Clark.
This paper must be thesis-driven, 2-3 pages in length, and must cite from at least four of the articles covered in this unit. MLA formatting required and a works cited page must be included.
