HST 658 Sex in the American City

This course addresses how North American cities fostered both commercial and non-commercial sexual cultures, sexual communities, and sex districts from the 19th to the early 21st century. Students will examine the histories of male and female prostitution, the development of non-heterosexual urban communities, cultures of urban romance, cinematic representations of sex and cities, suburban sex cultures, and the histories of gender, race, and class that structure these issues of sex in the city.
