<Undergraduate Courses and Programs Sexuality Studies Sexuality Studies is a field that examines sexual identities and subjectivities, communities and cultures, movements and organizing, desires and pleasures, acts and behaviours. The field explores artistic, cultural, economic, geographic, historical, literary, political, sociological and psychological dimensions of sexuality, while also investigating sexual dimensions of arts, economies, geographies, histories, literatures, politics, psychologies and societies. A central mission of Sexuality Studies at York is to examine existent and emergent intersections of ability, age, class, gender, gender identity, ethnicity, health, nationality, race, religion, sex, and sexuality. The field is concerned in part with the dynamics of sexual hierarchy, resistance, and diversity in a variety of Canadian contexts (past and present). It simultaneously works to understand the operations of sexual dynamics in African, Asian and Pacific, Caribbean, North and South American, European and Oceanic contexts (past and present). And it also focuses on sexual migrations and diasporas in transcontinental contexts. Committed to examining lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, transsexual, intersexed, heterosexual and heteronormative identities and cultures, the field also studies alternative ways of organizing sexualities and, indeed, alternatives to sexuality, in the past, present, and future. Students may pursue an Honours Minor BA or Cross-Disciplinary Certificate in Sexuality Studies in the faculties of Arts, Atkinson or Glendon. Faculty of Arts
