Feminist sexology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Feminist sexology is the study of sexuality from a feminist viewpoint, i.e. with a focus to women's interests. [1] Feminist sexologists encourage activities that promote the self-worth of women. They hope that their work protects the freedom of choice of women regarding sexual intercourse and reproduction.[2]
