taking pleasure back forum

 

Make sure that you put Novemeber 11th as that's the night that "We're Taking Pleasure Back" at the Center on Halsted.

This open forum is sponsored by Project Crysp, LifeLube.org and will be hosted by Fausto Fernos and Marc Felion of podcast Feast of Fun.  It's also the last panel of the season; earlier this year there was forum that dealt with bareback sex and the stigma attached to it, and created a quite divided community at the forum. Listen to it here

This next forum will surely be as controversial as they challenge the idea that the only 'gay sex that 'counts' is anal sex.'

Panelists Gary Harper of DePaul University, activist and spoken-word artist Keith Green, and Samuel Galloway, a sex educator from the Tulip Toy Gallery, will challenge audience participants - andthemselves - to explore ways in which we can creatively give and receive pleasure without concentrating on risk, HIV and STDs.

"I'm excited to participate in this forum because it affords members of our community an opportunity to think imaginatively about our bodies, our desires, and our shared world," said Galloway. "We need to move away from a pathological mindset."

Head over here to sign up and we'll see you at the Center on Halsted on the 11th.

I hope it will be fun and exciting as we explore sex outside of the framework of disease. Too often we get caught up in the downside of sex and we don't appreciate it for all its assets.
