Sex Thru The Ages, 12/15

When the students walked into the classroom today, they'd probably note the single sheet of looseleaf paper sitting on each desk, yes.

"Final exam day," Algren said, standing at the front of the room with his arms crossed over his chest. "And, instead of the multiple-choice like we had on the midterm, today we're going to ask you just one question. Please, answer in essay format, to the best of your ability."

It was possible that he simply didn't trust Jim with the photocopier enough to risk another quiz like that last one again.

It was a wonderful quiz, thank you.

"Explain your feelings on how the social concept of sex has changed from the past until whatever point in time you're at at the moment. Yes, that does include the future," Jim added dryly.

"Please, cite any valid examples that you might remember from class," Algren added, because he knew that there were some of those in there somewhere, "or feel free to mention things that you might be aware of through your own experiences or research."

Yes, their research of sex. They were teenagers. Algren was going to assume that it had to have happened with at least a few of them, somewhere down the road.

After some thought, Alex got started on his essay. It wasn't the most detail oriented thing in the world but he explained how sex in the past was sort of a taboo thing, sheltered behind closed doors because it was considered naughty and all and how sex evolved to being something openly discussed and talked about.

Alex, thinking himself clever, cited Professor Algren's moods as an example of how sex had changed since he was always the somewhat glaring one when Captain Kirk got on sex and he was from sometime in the past so it seemed a good example.
