This blog is created by students from Clemson University's spring 2009 course Women's Studies 459 - "Building Bodies: Women's Bodies in Theory and Practice." This class explores the construction of bodies from various methodological perspectives, focusing on five specific areas: theories of bodies; bodies and genders and sexes; “misbehaving” bodies; politics of bodies; and constructing bodies. We welcome comments and contributions to our posts and discussions.

ok I'm really sorry because I don't even really need more posts but I found something else

Ok so this video is a clip with the bodies world director. In one part the reporter asks who will benefit and the director says "all of humankind." I think that in lieu of the story about the French court that is an interesting perspective. I promise that this is the last I'll post on it!

  1. This is soooo Creepyyy! I have seen these exhibits before, but I don't think I have ever heard them describe the process the actually takes place to get them to that state.... I thought of a couple questions, Do they use bodies that are donated to science only? Do they know the identity of these bodies still?
