The theme of the 2009 conference is
sexuality, a very broad
topic that allows us to explore current issues in feminist scholarship related
to sex and gender. The call for proposals
provides some possible topics and areas that might be
addressed, such as biology, culture, and sexuality; gender construction and
sexuality; class and sexuality; sexualizing childhood; sex trafficking; feminism
and sexuality; and the construction of perversity, and many more possibilities
that address this broad field. Details about the conference are available on the conference website link, including the call for proposals and information about keynote speakers Jennifer Baumgartner and Amy Richards.
