Sex Week at Yale
Khaleej Times Online: "NEW HAVEN (Connecticut) — In a lecture hall on Yale’s storied Old Campus, not long after an afternoon astronomy class has cleared out, a middle-aged sex toy saleswoman is demonstrating her technique and handing out free products to an eager crowd.
“I want you to close your eyes,” Patty Brisben playfully instructs a young man in a pink polo shirt, as she rubs scented lotion into his forearm and, to raucous laughter, reaches for an electric toy and a glove. “Fantasise about having an all-over body massage.”
Welcome to Sex Week at Yale, a biennial celebration that has become one of the most provocative campus events in the country.
Organisers say Sex Week gets students talking about sex in a way that’s more relevant than middle-school film strips, more honest than movies and television and more fun than requisite college health lectures.
“To get people’s attention, we do have to do things a little risque and a little different than other sex education programs,” said junior Dain Lewis, who was inspired to direct Sex Week 2006 after attending the 2004 event.
Yale’s event, which ends toay, includes lectures from dating specialists, a sex therapist and a discussion of homosexuality with a former Catholic priest."
