10. No... but I think providing low hanging fruit to fundies is unwise.
I think the problem isn't the classes themselves... as much as the media guide descriptions... sometimes less is more in these cases.

Not that the professor helps her own cause. "Mindy Stombler teaches sexuality and society. One area of research: the social meaning of oral sex. As in, how oral sex is defined in our culture.

Stombler says, "I would argue that ever since the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal, it's been unclear what actually counts as sex anymore for a lot of americans.""

She is currently writing up the results of a second three-year study of Gay Fraternities. In this project (along with former graduate students King-To Yeung and Renee Wharton) she focuses on how men in gay fraternities negotiate the dual identities of being Gay and being Greek (results published in Social Problems). She is also examining how men in gay fraternities reproduce hegemonic masculinity.

Her latest research project involves unraveling the power dynamic embedded in the practices of oral sex, particularly cunnilingus, and connecting conceptualizations of cunnilingus to public discourse (particularly messages about oral sex sent through music and other media). Key questions include how people view cunnilingus and how individual and public conceptualizations of cunnilingus are mitigated by race, gender, class, and sexual orientation.

I stand corrected it's not a blowjob class... It's a cunnilingus class..
