This brief Human Sexuality curriculum, offered as part of an undergraduate elective in the Human Services department, encompasses four units that collectively provide a comprehensive exploration of sexuality education in the U.S., the intersection of sex and disability, contraception, and variations in sexual behavior including kink and paraphilias. This curriculum provides varied, current, and accessible information about these topics using resources that students can continue to access for free after the end of the semester.

Unit 2: Sex and Disability dives into the significance of inclusive sex education for individuals with physical, intellectual, and developmental disabilities. It provides in-depth resources and firsthand accounts, extending beyond typical textbook content. Unit 3: Contraception focuses on contemporary contraceptive methods through a hands-on workshop and an on-campus scavenger hunt, emphasizing gender-neutral and inclusive resources. Unit 4: Variations in Sexual Behavior: Kink and Paraphilias explores atypical sexual behaviors including paraphilias, kink, and BDSM using diverse media to present current and accessible content.
Each unit includes detailed lesson plans adaptable to synchronous and asynchronous formats, learning objectives, assigned materials, interactive components, and selected student feedback.
