Sh-sh-shake that ass

I had my first Sociology & Anthropology of the Body today. I don't know how I ended up a natural science student with an affinity for social science and the arts. I think I am really going to enjoy the class. The professor is awesome. She decided today that 8:30 is too early, so we're going to start class at 9 instead. We discussed the disembodied subject in sociology and how we are now moving toward an embodied subject. Basically, the mind and the body cannot be studied separately because each affects the other. Not overly groundbreaking from my perspective, but apparently this is new to sociology since the '90s.
