Pride Western Events
While I still think the name sounds like the alumni association (I liked it better when it had "queer" in the title, off putting for business students’ cv’s but still) Pride Western has done a great job of organizing an October Pride event. From October 11th on, here’s what’s scheduled:
WEDNESDAY
6:30 pm QUEER SEX TOY USE DISCUSSION w/ LIBIDO EROTIC EMPORIUM, room 371 in the UCC
Kelly
Garland from Libido Erotic Emporium for Women will discuss the many
uses of sex toys and safe sex toy use in queer, bi-sexual, gay and
lesbian sexuality. Included in this discussion will be the safe use of
sex toys and accessories, which toy materials are best for use, the
safe use of toys with multiple partners and the benefits of sexual
self-exploration for both the individual and healthy future intimate
relationships.
