Temple University started its first porn-studies course this semester.
Pollitt hopes the course will help students understand sex and sexuality better.
Professor Jennifer Pollitt, the assistant director of gender, sexuality, and women's studies at Temple University, teaches the class, which garnered a lot of attention from students.
The class often has deep discussions about sensitive material that students "sometimes don't even discuss with their closest friends," Pollitt said.
Evelyn Andromeda, a third-year undergraduate student at Temple University, said she went into this class not really knowing what to expect.
