Overall the class was not bad. Three midterms spaced about 2 weeks apart and then the final. The final however is where it gets diffficult because it "covers everything about equally". Being vague about what's on the final exam can only hurt students, not help b/c I spent most of my time studying for this final, ignoring other finals I had.
Him and Janice (his wife) are very knowledgable... entertaining and informative. The exams can me difficult if you don't attend lectures or do any of the readings, which are interesting because there is so much to learn about human sexuality. Great class, everyone should take it!!!
Him and his wife are GREAT. They know their material trully want students to know it and apply it. You definately need to study for 3 midterms and a final, but it's worth it. It's one of those FEW classes at UCSB that offers material, actually useful in life!!! I loved it and loved the professor-if you need upper division course, this would be it
Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin are so cute!! I loved this class--it was so entertaining. They are good at role playing situations and really bring a lot of humour to this subject.
Sociology of Human Sexuality is one of the best classes offered at UCSB.
The Baldwins are great. The material is interesting and informative. If you attend class 70% of the time and skim through the book it should be an easy A. Not too much work involved. If you know your own body and took any kind of sex ed, it should just expand on the knowledge you already know.
greaaat class. i loved it. MAKE SURE U ATTEND those study sessions, the information they give you make up 90% of the tests. overall, the class was very interesting. i never missed a lecture because the lectures were so fun to attend...other than the guest speaker ones.
Great class, very entertaining, funny guy.

Not an easy A like people might think. But the lectures are enojyable and if you go to them and the review sessions before the midterm and do the reading you will do well. I did all that and got an A!
Amazing class. Everyone who lives in Isla Vista should take it.....
the test are hard
just go to the reviews with a laptop. copy EVERYTHING down. study everything given on the reviews with flashcards. chances are, you will be able to get by answering 4/6 questions with just the information from the reviews alone. lectures are great. readings aren't that bad. overall, this class was super. i managed to pull an A- i would recommend it
Extremely interesting material covered and the lectures are truly entertainment-but you MUST study! Who ever thought a class about SEX would be so hard? I didnt, but you learn quickly what the format is, and you can go off that for the remaining tests.
I liked everything about this class except for the midterms. There is no reason to make sex midterms so hard. I would rather hook up a car battery to my testicles than retake the 3rd midterm.
Very interesting class, these teachers are straight up crazy & its amazing that they actually found each other & got married! lectures must be seen to be believed !but you MUST study & do the reading bc the tests are pretty difficult, but i studied & got an A, but if def wasnt an easy A
TEST FORMAT:6 multiple choice,5Choose4 Short Answer Essays.If YOU CAN GET URSELF 2 READ, and can REMEMBERwhat you read,u will do good on the tests. Short answer questions say things like, "What is depo-provera." Well, if u read the reading ucan easily answer.THEY TELLU EXACT PAGES ONTEST. JUST READ!

This class was very interesting and enjoyable to go to. The tests are very easy if you do the reading and go the review sessions. The class is only an hour and it goes by really fast. There are 3 midterms, but they are very flexible if you need to make up one.
They're nice people. But it is a hard class. I liked the subjects and there is no way you fall asleep in lecute, cuz the topic is just interesting and they're funny. But the midterms and the final are very hard. I took it p/not pass and I passed with a C-. It is NO easy A !!! you have to study !!
Absolutely loved the class and lectures...very interesting topic. Everyone should have to take this class. However, midterms and the final were difficult...make sure you read and go over lecture notes. They also like to throw in Q's from lecture...so go. All in all, loved the Baldwin's & the class.
The Baldwins are two of the best teachers I've had at UCSB. I thoroughly enjoyed their lectures, and I got to know them personally in 152B. They are great people and they truly care about their students' learning. Tests are difficult, but the subject is very interesting.
