Perverts Put Out For The Folsom Street Fair!

Held on the eve of the notorious Folsom Street Fair,
this star-studded spoken word smut salon will
be twisted, sexy, and thought-provoking as always.
Whether it's foot fetish fiction, true-life sex worker tales,
reviews of bad sex toys, or cut-up pornographic
poetry, it's always tasty fun. Candy for the brain
*and* the groin!

Performers will include Thomas Roche, Daphne
Gottlieb, Jaime Cortez, Fran Varian, Jill Nagle,
horehound stillpoint, T.R. Moss, and Marlo Gayle.
Emcees are the fabulous Simon Sheppard and
Carol Queen.

When: Saturday, September 29, 2007, 7:30 pm.
Where: CounterPULSE!, 1310 Mission St., SF
How much: $10-15 sliding scale to benefit the Center for
Sex and Culture. No-one turned away for lack of funds.

Goodreads won't tell me my password. Grr.

Nail. Head. Hammer.

"You know how some people take music and writing and other kinds of art and use it to hurt others and express their rage; some people do this with sex, on video. The problem is not that they feel this way (because we all probably feel this way sometime) and it’s not that they want to express it. The problem is that they do it by using real people, and they make them do things that are physically dangerous and probably emotionally difficult to deal with."

No, wait, read the whole thing.


(also, this made me giggle in instant camraderie: "Being neurotic and writing about sex all day, this is actually something I’ve thought about a fair bit...")
