It is with great pleasure that I write that our last event, "Let's Talk About Sex pt. II" was a resounding sucess and really captured the essense of what our initiative is all about. Held last week, the event focused on creating and enhancing dialogue amongst college aged students (who may or may not be members of a local Catholic university) to have honest, productive, and sex positive discussions about S E X. Too often dialouge is cut by oppressive forces at the expense of all others. The irony, of course, being that to the more you don't allow conversations the more vital they become.
Discussing everything from a male culture of masturbation to how sex education can sometimes render BDSM invisible, we deconstructed, reconstituted, and most importantly, imagined. I never cease to be inspiried by the brave voices of young people fighting to be heard. The event ended, of course, with the distribution of hundreds of condoms."Any situation in which some individuals prevent others from engaging in the process of inquiry is one of violence" -Paulo Freire
