'Sex Is So Much More than Penis in Vagina': Sex Education, Pleasure and Ethical Erotics on Instagram
Ruby Sciberras; Claire Tanner – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2024
Novel forms of social media created 'by-and-for' women offer potentially new ways of communicating and constructing sex education. In this paper, we consider how Instagram is being used by sex educators to deploy discourses of resistance and erotics to educate about sex. Our method consisted of a combined critical discourse (CDA) and content…

Cassar, Joanne – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2017
This paper presents findings from a study of students' writings about the erotic. These occurred in the form of graffiti and were scrawled on toilet doors for female students attending a higher education institution in Malta.

Ohito, Esther O. – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2023
Theory provokes and stimulates. This theoretical essay blurs the boundaries between academic and creative non-fiction writing to illustrate Black women artists mining self-serving economies of embodied, affective pleasure by crafting womanist erotica, that is, Black woman/girl-centred, eros-charged art, music, and literature. I play with words to…

Gilbert, Jen – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2016

What special intellectual and…

Darnell, Cyndi – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2015
For most of us, sex is a subjective, lived experience that is as unique as our genetic make-up, our upbringing, our thoughts, values, feelings, beliefs and ideas. It is through our erotic interactions, or the absence thereof, that we form aspects of our fluid and mutable erotic paths and identities. Despite the proliferation of sexual imagery…

Cameron-Lewis, Vanessa; Allen, Louisa – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2013
Sexuality education and preventive sexual abuse education emerged from different historical moments and social movements. Consequently, they are often taught as separate subjects in secondary schools. This paper seeks to highlight how this separation denies space for young people to grapple with the concept of consent, the art of negotiation, the…

Roberts, Ron; Jones, Amy; Sanders, Teela – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2013
Available evidence suggests that changes in the funding of UK higher education in recent years have been accompanied by an increased student presence in the sex industry, ostensibly for financial reasons and to make ends meet. The current study comprises a sample of students ("N" = 200) drawn from several universities in the UK. Data…

Isherwood, Lisa – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2004
This article suggests that sex education in Church schools should address the personal as political through proclaiming the liberating potential of incarnational theology. The author suggests that Christian sex educators should be alert to the construction and commodification of desire and its attendant capitalist implications. While resisting…
