The assignments do not include having sex, watching pornographic
tapes, or even tying up a significant other. However, each semester, Psychology
of Human Sexuality is a favorite amongst MCC students.
Courses of this nature began to appear in the American college curriculum
in the ‘70s due to the sexual freedom movement and because kids wanted
to be free of sexual restraints, according to Susie Orton, teacher of Psychology
of Human Sexuality.
