This is a major state university. I'll refrain from where, but it is not the Bay Area or any other perceived "highly liberal" colleges.
The instructor asked the 300 students in the lecture hall to say out loud all the words used to describe the words she would call out. She wanted a boisterous response and encouraged everyone to participate and not hold back.
The group of 18-19 year-old's began giggling and squirming a bit.
She (instructor) shouted "penis" and the responses were quick.."dick, johnson, chubby, cock, love muscle etc."
Next she shouted "love making" and the shouts were even louder..."****ing, banging, boning, etc."
This went on to include oral sex, anal sex, masturbation, bestiality, and a few other topics including tools and devices. The class was transformed into both a whispering and giggling frenzy.
She stated the reason was to get everyone comfortable with their own sexuality and to be able to openly discuss it in a group format. She also told the class they would be watching a porno video halfway through the course and critiquing the foreplay and main event as well as the reactions and orgasms of the actors.
I singled out some foreign exchange students by their body language and asked for their thoughts on the class. All but two (I talked with 10-12 students, some in groups), said they were embarrassed and were very nervous about the upcoming week's topics. I asked if this was common-place in their cultures and they went on to talk about their amazement of what is openly discussed in America.
I found this interesting. For many reasons.
I am curious to attend the "porn viewing".
