In a year of heated discussions about campus rape culture and street harassment, the merits of sex positivism, and the implications of trans-identity for feminism, we ask what is the future of sex and sexuality?
Have the rules of sexual engagement changed in the twenty-first century and has the discipline of philosophy managed to keep up? How do we start to think afresh about desire, after Freud and into the future? And what is the future for sex as our conceptions of the body are reframed by culture, bionics, and even the law?
Join Katherine Angel (author and academic), Kate Devlin (human-computer interaction and AI researcher), and Rebecca Reilly-Cooper (philosopher) as they explore these questions and more.
