授業の概要
／Course outline		 This course introduces students to philosophy through problems or “puzzles” discussed in the history of the western philosophy. Those problems are typically concerned with the nature of the world, god, mind, and morality: Where did the universe come from? Can we know other people’s minds? Can machines think? What is it to be morally good and bad? What is it to know something? Each class presents one of those philosophical puzzles and we will think through about them. In so doing we will learn the philosophical and analytical way of thinking, which could enable us to think more clearly and critically when we face complicated problems even in the fields other than philosophy.
授業の目的と到達目標
／Objectives and attainment
goals		 After finishing this course students should be: (a) Able to describe philosophical problems discussed in class, and (b) Able to examine those problems and present their position on them by making a clear argument.

授業の概要
／Course outline		 The gender and sexuality studies use social-scientific approaches to matters related to the sexes such as biological sexes, psychosexuality and sociosexuality, sexual desires, and sexual behaviors.

In the introduction, students will learn the overall territory of the gender and sexuality studies. Afterwards, students will learn three main themes; 1) modern family and working females, 2) matters related to gender and sexuality, and 3) modern history of homosexuality in Japan.

1) Modern family and working females: Students will learn about sex-role “male should work outside, female should do housework and take care of children at home” and modern family which emphasizes an interest to children and family ties at household.
Moreover students will have an opportunity to think about how the norm surrounding a modern family is interrupting working female. On the other hand, students will learn the circumstances of the gender norm which shapes the way of life for males as well as that for females.

2) Matters related to gender and sexuality: Based on autonomy of sex, students will learn that everybody has the inherent right of his/her own sexuality which should not be affected by others regardless of his/her gender. However, in the reality, there is the gender asymmetry. Students will learn that sexuality of females is affected by males.
In order to establish tight relationship as a member of the society without any gender concerns, understanding about the autonomy of sex is inevitable.

3) Modern history of homosexuality in Japan: Homosexuality will be featured amongst sexual minorities. A method based on historical sociology will be employed.
Recently, same-sex marriage and same-sex partnership system have been discussed in Japan. Students will learn that social problems will not be solved only by these factors and gender equality is necessary for it.

Since gender and sexuality are linked each other, they will be taught one by one at the class carefully.
授業の目的と到達目標
／Objectives and attainment
goals		 1) By learning the fundamental knowledge about modern family and employment of female, students will be able to think about what they can do for creating society that anyone can spend their lives in their own ways regardless sexual differences.

2) Knowing about the reality of sexual damages to females caused by gender asymmetry, students will be able to explain why autonomy of sex is essential.

3) Learning about homosexuality in Japanese modern history, students will be able to explain why having establishment of same-sex marriage and same-sex partnership system is insufficient as support for sexual minorities.
