Let me preface this post with the admission that I am not mature. As such, while looking for winter quarter classes, I stumbled upon this gem and couldn't help but laugh. It's a Gender Studies class (of course) and it's Gender Theory: Penetration/Penetrability.
And it's (sort of) what it sounds like. Take a look at the course description and don't get thrown off by all the big words:
COURSE DESCRIPTION: Sigmund Freud famously characterizes women's difference from men in terms of lack. For Freud, women are defined by the piece of masculine anatomy that they do not possess. In this class, we will explore how bodies and selves are sexed according to another rubric: penetrability, or the capacity to be penetrated. For, as we will see, penetrability does not clearly delimit the anatomical basis of femininity, but rather gives rise to an unstable array of bodily and subjective possibilities. Bodies and selves, it turns out, "open" in a variety of ways: we will investigate how literary, filmic, and philosophical/ theoretical figurations of penetrability variously link the opening of the mind and/ or body to the categories of masculinity and femininity.
It goes on from there, but you get the idea. And, may I remind you, I am not mature.
