Sexual+Revolution

The quiz paper has been written. Please don't add any more questions. Use the ones below (i.e. the ones not in italics) to assist your quiz revision.


 * NB: Material covered in the first 3 'Sexual Revolution' lectures is assessable in the quiz. Make sure you listen to recordings of Katie Barclay's 2nd and 3rd lectures on MyUni, by following the instructions that Paul outlined in an email to you.**


 * NB: Questions in italics are unlikely to be asked in the quiz because they are either (a) too difficult to answer in a short-answer format; or (b) too obscure (i.e. not focused on a key point that was made in one of the lectures, or on a key event/person/place/date that was mentioned in one of the lectures). **
