20:00 – 23:30 Sinterklaas vs Santa Claus Cantus

Room at the back of the Recup

Let’s decide once and for all who the real December Patron is, the holy good old man Saint-Nicholas or the jolly Santa Claus? Maybe if we sing some beautiful songs together they’ll both bring us presents!

It’s an initiationcantus so perfect for those who haven’t gone to a cantus before! We’ll explain how everything goes and what the rules are. Don’t worry, NFK cantusses are not exactly like any other cantus. Anyway, we definitely won’t force you to do anything and are very happy to welcome all of you to get to know the phenomenon a cantus is.

You can buy your codex at the cantus for 10 euro.

Registration for the cantus is mandatory: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf69TF3IMPhYkh6yqA6xQnznMt_xs83Q6JCDBGm3AujbJoEuw/viewform

Price:
– Beer: €12 for NFK members / €14 for others
– Water: €5

IMPORTANT: please bring your own cup, it’s better for the environment! (we’re trying not to add anything to the plastic soup we call ocean)

The doors open at 8PM, io vivat is at 8.30PM

We hope to see you there!

16:00 – 18:00 Medicalization of Female Sexual Desire

HIW Kardinaal Mercierzaal

You’re all welcome on this lecture given by Jacob Stegenga from the University of Cambridge. Medicalization of Female Sexual Desire fits in the serie ‘Understanding health beyond the medical gaze’.

Medicalisation is a social phenomenon in which conditions that were once under legal, religious, personal or other jurisdictions are brought into the domain of medical authority. Low sexual desire in females has been medicalised, pathologised as a disease, and intervened upon with a range of pharmaceuticals. There are two polarised positions on the medicalisation of low female sexual desire: I call these the mainstream view and the critical view. In the full version of the paper I assess important arguments from both positions; here I focus on the arguments for the critical view. Dividing the two positions are opposing models of the aetiology of low female sexual desire. I conclude by suggesting that the balance of arguments supports a modest defence of the critical view regarding the medicalisation of low female sexual desire.
