Queer Safer Sex workshop on Thursday

Zak Kirwood '12 writes to let us know that there will be a Queer Safer Sex workshop on Thursday.

It'll be facilitated by Planned Parenthood community educator T. R. Richardson, who I happen to know is extremely groovy and exciting. From what I know, she runs the workshop based on the interests of the group. There will be Thai food.
Zak also shares a fun fact: apparently, the penis shoots semen at 25 mph! Buckle your seatbelts, sexually active readers!

Date: Thursday, Dec. 4
Time: 6:00 PM
Place: Usdan 110

Mmmmmm pills and condoms

You know you use those handy bags of assorted condoms, or maybe you use the pill? Time to give some feedback on the wesleyan birth control campaign! What's your favorite condom, wesleying? Mine are those beyond seven/kimonos... anyway.

WesWELL, the Office of Health Education wants to know what kinds of safer sex supplies we should be offering. We have an online survey up through December 1st, so please help us out!

The survey is here.

(p.s. Wesleyan students only, please, with apologies to all the non-Wes Wesleying readers.)

"Fair & Balanced"

Middle School Gives Students Birth Control Pill

Shocking headline, I know, but Fox's clearly unbiased representative - Father Jonathan Morris - presents you with all the facts you need to know to make your decision. Like, the fact that... well, actually he doesn't mention that the school district has already seen 17 pregnancies in its 3 middle schools. That kind of journalistic crap is left to the Associated Press. But boy, he sure does hate socialism and the radical agenda of Planned Parenthood:

"Mr. Verrier’s idea of a trusted adult is based on socialist principles. He has blind faith in the state. We can only assume he has absolute confidence that the trusted adult in question will also make sure his eleven-year-old daughter never misses a day on the pill. He has equal confidence that the trusted adult will help his little girl make "wise" choices about which guys to sleep with. After all, in this twilight zone where it takes a village to raise a child, only the state knows the confidential fact that the little girl is having sex and taking pills."

My guess is that Father Morris' religion is also based on socialist principles, but hey, at least his blind faith is in the right place.

"Planned Parenthood has convinced public school bureaucrats and some parents that more contraception in schools means less teen "pregnancy" (meaning teen "births"), and this is all that matters. They fail to say that more contraception also means more promiscuity (What happens when a teacher gives an adolescent male a handful of colored condoms?), and that more promiscuity always translates into more abortion. They don’t bother to do this kind of math, because in their twilight zone, not all numbers (human beings) have the same value."

Indeed, what does happen when a teacher gives an adolescent male a handful of colored condoms? Promiscuity, of course. Boy, what a crazy day that was when my fifty-something school guidance counselor handed out some condoms in Sex Ed class. Promiscuity everywhere.

I wonder if Fox even realizes that it's unintentionally satirizing itself?
