14/01 4pm-5pm: "Porn and Feminism" reading group by MAP

Clarissa Müller-Kosmarov — Thu, 09 Jan 2025 12:43:41 GMT

When: 4pm - 5pm, Tue, 14 Jan '25

Where: S2.85

Porn websites rank among the most visited websites globally with billions of visits every month. According to a study from 2018, 91.5% of men and 60.2% of women (ages 18-73) in the US reported having consumed pornography in the past month (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30358432/). The impact that porn has on feminist issues has been discussed by feminist philosophers for decades. We want to explore the relation between ‘Porn and Feminism’ by reading a couple of introductory texts together! By ‘exploring’ we mean to not take certain evaluative assumptions towards pornography for granted beforehand but to get familiar with some of the things that have been said in feminist debates.

We will start by reading the chapter “Talking to My Students About Porn” by Amia Srinivasan (contained in her 2021 book “The Right to Sex” and attached). After that, we will determine the readings successively which is also an opportunity to bring in your own wishes and suggestions.

Where and when: every second Tuesday, 4-5 pm (weeks 2, 4, perhaps 6, 8, 10); room S2.85 (in the Economics department very close to the Philosophy department). We will, accordingly, start next Tuesday, 14. January!

Any questions, suggestions, or comments: map.philosophy@warwick.ac.uk.

Best,

Frido

07/02 1pm-2pm: MAP Panel Discussion - Access to Philosophy - Exploring obstacles and possibilities

Clarissa Müller-Kosmarov — Mon, 03 Feb 2025 17:24:27 GMT

When: 1pm - 2pm, Fri, 07 Feb '25

Where: Cowling Room (S2.77)

We will discuss obstacles and access to doing philosophy, both for students and researchers/lecturers. Philosophy has some surprisingly enduring underrepresentation at the professional level, with respect to race and gender (and class?), and there are salient patterns for PG study as well. There is also longstanding cultural narrowness in the intellectual traditions studied. Why is this? How do these facts affect people’s experience in philosophy? Please join students and faculty members for brief presentations from the panel and open discussion of the issues. The session will be held in the Cowling Room, S2.77. Refreshments will be served.
