Research Essay
Question: How did sexual liberation movements in Australia in 1960s and 1970s impact on women’s or men’s experiences (heterosexual or gay/lesbian)? In what ways can the late 1960s and 1970s be described as an era of sexual permissiveness (freedom)? (can touch on mens sexual experiences too, but mainly focus on heterosexual women)
The essay must be fully documented using footnoting and bibliographical conventions as set out in the ‘Academic Referencing Module’ (ARM) and ‘Academic Referencing Tool’ (ART) available on LMS (Moodle).
