Arse Elektronica
Submitted by Elizabeth on 21 August 2007 - 4:43pmA conference that brings together sexologists, sociologists, technicians, artists, philosophers, and lots of people who, predictably, cross such arbitrary boundaries!
From the Arse Elektronika 2007 "About " page:
From the depiction of a vulva in a cave painting to the newest internet porno, technology and sexuality have always been closely linked. No one can predict what the future will bring, but history indicates that sex will continue to play an essential role in technological development.

Carol Queen's Birthday Party
Submitted by Chris on 10 July 2007 - 2:36pmThe most fabulous Carol Queen is throwing herself a party as she turns a glorious fifty years old, and she wants you to be there! Here's what she's tempting you with:
Disco! (Hey, if you had half as much fun as I did when disco was young, you'd like it too.)
Dress accordingly, or just dress to impress!
Entertainment! A few of my favorite performers will entertain me, and you, with a reading, maybe a lil' dance, or a serenade... Refreshments! A very fabulous raffle! Spin the Good Vibes Wheel of Swag for prizes! And... A ROAST! Yes, listen to my friends and colleagues tell all my secrets. If they leave anything out, maybe I'll tell one of my own!
All the dough generated by the raffle, the wheel-o-prizes, and any friendly non-profit extortion we may engage in will go right to the Center for Sex & Culture! But there's no charge to come to the party. Please drop by if you can! And feel free to spread the word.

Masturbate-a-thon (Center for Sex and Culture)
Submitted by Elizabeth on 4 May 2007 - 11:55amEvent link: CSC's Masturbate-a-thon
From the web site:
Why Masturbate? Why Masturbate-a-thon?
Despite great strides in sex-positive education, masturbation for many remains a taboo subject. We believe:
* Masturbation is the safest sex.
* More masturbation means more sexual self-awareness.
* Masturbation with a partner can be educational and hot.
The Center For Sex & Culture is 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to sexual freedom and safety, offering classes and workshops that continue to promote a sex-positive reality. Come for this good cause. Wank for the greater good. Jill-off in pride and support. Help keep sex education safe, accurate and fun.

Where Does The Money Go?
All proceeds support the The Center For Sex & Culture.
