Summing up the course


Summing up this course in one word, random! Some parts the course have been entertaining, people sharing some of their strange and funny experiences, on certain topics, with the group. However, some sessions have been much less interactive, with the lecture not fitting in time for discussion, or the lecture having to finishing early.
Some of the topics, you can see, have a forward link between the idea of ‘being bad’ with the taboos that are stereotyped as being bad in society. Such as masturbation, body modification, gambling and so forth. However others, such as ‘being too religious’ and ‘bandits and out laws’ were very disappointing, having little or nothing of interest.
One think that has been made clear though the module is that, most of the sessions have revolved around us having to put something into the session for us to get any interest out of it. Also, that most of the topics covered are still relevant taboos that still reside in society, thus still having relevance for us today.
