Week 14 Topic

In my classes, I like to give students an opportunity to pick a week's topic. Especially in this very short mini-course, there are so many interesting topics beyond what I've included in the syllabus. This week, it's your opportunity to pick what we focus on. After the students vote, I will find readings or films for us to engage together.

There are two steps to this process. Frst, please look at the following list and email me if there is a topic you'd like to add to the voting ballot. Second, at the beginning of Week 11, all students will get to vote on what we should consider in Week 14.

The current list of possible topics:

beauty and beauty work
boys love manga
"Comfort Women" and post-colonial conflicts
divorce and romance
extramarital sexuality
hosts and host clubs
love hotels
nationalism
sexlessness
Trans rights and activism

Email me any topic you'd like added to this list by Friday, March 18.
