Issues of Sexuality in the Teaching Space

This article is based on the author's personal experience of teaching sexuality within the context of a second‐year geography option on social and cultural geography. The paper considers the issues which might surround deciding to teach sexuality and the complex questions around ‘coming out’ as a straight or gay tutor. It also addresses the question, ‘Why should I teach sexuality within my human geography modules?’. The final section of the article gives some brief description of materials useful for teaching sexual geographies.
