About the event
In Search of Female Pleasure: A History is an enlightening class that explores the evolving perceptions of female sexuality throughout history. From ancient understandings of pleasure and fertility to the medicalization of women’s bodies, we will examine how different cultures and eras have shaped the narrative around female desire. The course will delve into historical misconceptions, such as the once-prevalent belief in "hysteria" as a medical condition and the treatments that were developed in response. By unpacking these ideas, we’ll challenge outdated perspectives and discuss the broader implications of these beliefs on women’s autonomy and pleasure.
We will also explore the history of female sexual anatomy and its scientific discoveries, from early medical texts that largely ignored or misunderstood the clitoris to modern advancements that have reshaped our understanding of female pleasure. The discussion will highlight the influence of religion, patriarchy, and medical institutions on how women's bodies have been viewed…
