CINEKINK NYC - CALL FOR ENTRIES
"The really alternative film festival"
February 26 - March 2, 2008
Presented by CineKink, an organization dedicated to the recognition and encouragement of sex-positive and kink-friendly depictions in film and television, CineKink NYC is seeking films and videos, of any length and genre, that explore and celebrate the wide diversity of sexuality. We're looking to blur some boundaries and will be considering offerings drawn from both Hollywood and beyond, explicit or not, with works ranging from documentary to drama, camp comedy to hot porn - and everything in between.
This is not a new subject nor is it one that is in any way surprising given the number of 'discreet' relationships I have been witness to that are, in reality, anything but, While I am the last one in the world to preach on this subject, the story in the attached link is just one more thing that you need to account for in keeping that hidden little secret just that.
With the proliferation of security inspired cameras all over the place in both public and private spaces, the chance of exposure for those trying to maintain a clandestine relationship becomes increasingly more likely. Before venturing out of the deep woods keep that in mind and enjoy the attached article.
As a firm believer in the tenet that the human animal, such as we are, is not - nor was ever - geneteically predisposed to be monogamous, I am nevertheless a proponent of responsible non-monogamy as opposed to gratuitous, anonymous sexual encounters. While each may have its place, the former allows for the development of stronger and more vibrant relationship between partners who are on the same or similar pages when they embark on this journey.
As the host of a group that currently has 3000 sexually explorative member couples, I have been witness to most everything, bad and good, that might present itself in situations of this sort. I have seen couples blossom by coming out and opening themselves up to sexual exploration with others. Generally, these are couples with already strong bonds that are looking to expand their horizons by including others in their sex play - be they one time encounters or ongoing intimate relationships.
