http://sexinthepublicsquare.org/taxonomy/term/718 The taxonomy view with a depth of 0. en http://sexinthepublicsquare.org/node/413 <p>I&#39;m using this photo to inaugurate what I hope will be a cool new feature on Sex in the Public Square. It&#39;s called <i>Sex Symbols</i> (unless someone suggests a better name for it) and it&#39;ll be an examination of material culture connected to sexuality, sex norms, gender roles, and so on. </p><p>I&#39;d like this to have a fairly standard format so that it is recognized as a series across the site. The format could look like this: First a photo of the object (here it&#39;s a t-shirt but it could be anything that is tangible), then &quot;What&quot; (a brief description) followed by &quot;Where/when&quot; (a brief note about where/when the object was found) and then &quot;Why? Discuss!&quot; </p><p> The idea is to talk about what these bits of culture mean, how we feel about those meanings, what kinds of competing messages are out there, and so on.</p><p>Below is the first in the <i>Sex Symbols </i>series.</p><p>&nbsp;</p> <align:></align:><div style="text-align: center"><img src="/files/u1/WalkofShameT.jpg" alt="Walk of Shame Tshirt" height="500" width="375" /></div><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://sexinthepublicsquare.org/node/413">read more</a></p> http://sexinthepublicsquare.org/node/413#comments material culture mixed messages Sex Symbols symbolism walk of shame Sun, 23 Sep 2007 08:20:27 -0700 Elizabeth 413 at http://sexinthepublicsquare.org
