 NOVEMBER EVENTS Monday, 11/5 -- YOGAPLAY FOR MEN Visit thom grexa phillips' site for detail about this all-male nude yoga evening: http://www.tgpraxis.net/yoga.html. Tuesday November 6, 7-9:30 pm -- TAOIST EROTIC MASSAGE FOR WOMEN Experience the power of sacred sexuality in this hands-on, clothes-off workshop. This 2.5 hour workshop will focus on the female as receiver. Women must attend with a partner. This workshop welcomes givers of any sex/gender identity. We will practice a series of conscious breathwork techniques and Taoist erotic massage, which can lead to extended, full-body orgasm and an altered mind-state conducive to spiritual insights. Honestly, if you're looking to get off, this isn't for you - this is a spiritual, erotic practice that stimulates and spreads erotic energy throughout the body. It is very hot, but it isn't sex as you normally think of it. After the introduction and demonstration, we will practice the breathwork, and you will be guided through a series of different genital massage strokes. Participants will then have an opportunity to give or receive a 40 minute massage with integrated breathwork and coaching. There is no sexual interaction between the giver and receiver except for the massage itself, and all boundaries will be respected.
Destin Gerek is a Califronia State Certified Sexological Bodyworker through the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality.

Ask the Doctors presents: Fellatio! Our resident staff sexologist Dr. Carol Queen and Dr. Robert Lawrence will explore and explain everything you ever wanted to know, but were afraid to ask. Everyone’s invited, so come on in and learn what there is to know about…fellatio! When: Friday, November 9th Monday, 11/12, 7:30-8:30 door -- the SF JACKS For more about this fellowship of men who like to j/o in the company of other like-minded men, visit sfjacks.com. Friday, 11/16, 7:30 pm -- AT YOUR CERVIX Soiree and Support Night Join us in welcoming Amy Jo Goddard and Julie Carlson, whose movie-in-progress is At Your Cervix: a film dedicated to making pelvic exams respectful and pain-free. The filmmakers will come with clips to show and will tell the story of their unique, important project. No charge -- spread the word! We WILL ask anyone who's able to donate to the project so they can finish the film. If you can't make it to the soiree but want to support this great project, see below. "At Your Cervix" is about the ways students learn to perform breast and pelvic exams in U.S. medical and nursing institutions. Featuring Gynecological Teaching Associates (GTAs), the story will illuminate the history of breast and pelvic exams and the reasons so many women have such negative experiences with these annual visits to their health care providers. Many students learn these invasive exams on women who are under anesthesia while in teaching hospitals -- often without their consent! This film will expose this unethical practice and educate viewers about their rights as patients. Our hope is that the film will be a call to action, so that women, armed with the knowledge that these exams should be comfortable, will feel empowered to demand it; and that providers will want to provide the most comfortable and competent pelvic exams possible. We need money to finish the film. IFP (The Independent Feature Project) has agreed to be our fiscal sponsor, so you can donate tax-free through IFP. Any amount you can give will help. To give you an idea: $25 buys a pack of mini DV tapes; $50 buys us DVDs so we can send copies of our trailer to funding agencies and festivals; $100 buys us 2 hours of a cameraperson's labor; $400 will buy us one hour of a professional post-production session; $2000 would buy us a week of editing. To support the project, please go to our website at www.atyourcervixmovie.com and click on the "support us" link. You can make a tax-deductible donation by downloading the form and sending it to IFP with your check, or if you don't care about the tax break, just donate to us through PayPal. Whatever you donate, absolutely 100% of the money we receive will go towards the completion of the film. At CSC: 1519 Mission Suite 1. Doors open and schmoozing starts at 7:30, and we'll start the talk and clip show at 8. Saturday, November 17th 9:30am-5:30pm -- BECOME AN EXTRAORDINARY LOVER (for men who love women) with Danielle & Celeste Participants from recent Become an Extraordinary Lover™ Workshops said:
There is nothing more arousing than watching a woman you are making love to writhe and moan with delight. However, there are very few places to get practical, explicit, and straightforward advice about what turns women on. In this Hands-On, one-day workshop you'll learn everything from the arts of romance and seduction to advanced pleasure techniques. Learn to read women's non-verbal cues, to elicit information about her secret sexual desires, and to keep her coming back for more. You will have the opportunity to practice different kinds of touch on a woman, understand her responses, and receive helpful feedback. The facilitators will cover intimacy, communication and how to give pleasure during a sexual encounter including manual and oral techniques. Tuition is $495. To sign up visit their website at http://www.celesteanddanielle.com/workshopMen.html or call Celeste at (415) 336-3258 or Danielle at (408) 469-1989. About the facilitators: See Danielle & Celeste's bios above, with their 11/3-4 class listing. Sunday, November 18, 3 -- 5 pm -- SEX EDUCATION STUDENTS' SALON Join us if you are a student at one of the many Bay Area sex education programs, or if you're specializing in a sex-related direction in any other field... or if you're just curious about doing so.
