UCLA seminar explores politics of sex in the media

Feb. 16, 2012 – Sexual representation is all around us, but how do we detect that exactly? Professor Christopher Mott holds a seminar on Pornography and the Politics of Sexual Representation to teach students how to discern subliminal messages presented by the media. However, they are beginning to learn that there are more issues regarding sex, culture and media that go beyond pornography. In response, Mott has cultivated an environment where students can discuss how these issues have influenced American culture using both an academic and emotional approach.
