A Taiwanese university opens a porn course (2 Viewers)

[zstar]

A university in Taiwan has opened a course to teach students how to appreciate and analyse porn movies.

The Mass Communication Department of Providence University opened the course this semester, reports United Daily News.

To pass the course, students must give a 15 minute presentation in which they analyse an audience's psychological reaction to a porn clip from an academic perspective.

One worried student, who did not wish to be named, commented: "If I get a very good score in this course, I don't know how I'll explain it to my parents."

When registering for the voluntary course, students signed a paper agreeing that if the scenes were too explicit, they could choose to leave the classroom

The teacher, assistant professor Miss Chen Mingmei, said no students had ever left her class but some would briefly cover their eyes during the stronger scenes.

More than 50 students registered for the course, and most of them confessed that they had watched porn videos before.

Curiosity was given as the main reason for taking the course and most admitted their parents did not know what they were studying.

Another student admitted: "I am really worried my parents will see the score report when it is mailed home. I won?t know what to say if I get a high score

"However if I fail the course, I can speak to my parents and suggest that maybe I should watch more porn."

Discussions of pornography are significant in feminist theory (particularly radical feminism), gay and lesbian studies and cultural studies. I think you could justify running a course on it.

 

[darkwolfzx]

i reckon porn directors are sponsoring this course to bring fresh blood into the industry.

 

[Rainie]

The uni will probably get free porn shipped to them every week by porn producing companies

But yeah, they got too much funds to spare and perhaps a little too much time...

 

[Pain]

So we talking American porn? Or Asian porn? Or like European. It all depends on the country of origin man. I can't handle Asian porn sometimes. With the insanely hairy pussies and pixelated penis'. Seriously, WTF??

could you even justify feminist theory, gay and lesbian studies or cultural studies in the first place though?

Well, if you're going to attack the arts department at universities in general, go ahead. But pornography studies is as instrumentally valuable as most of the stuff coming out of cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, English etc.

XXXchange.

You are a soulless robot.

Mayhaps, but then there's no reason to attack pornography studies in particular.

Edit: Wooo! I have a second little green square ^_^
