Godless Perverts Social Club: Purity and Impurity
Sex, activism, religion, food -- the notion of purity permeates many aspects of our lives. It's not limited to the religious right, either: progressive activism is not always good at nuance, and alt-sex cultures that supposedly reject sexual purity often wind up embracing it. But what does purity even mean? Is it ever a useful concept? Is there a difference between purity and setting boundaries? Come to the Godless Perverts Social Club and discuss purity and impurity, in sex, religion,…

Godless Perverts Book Club is reading "The Technology of Orgasm: "Hysteria," the Vibrator, and Women's Sexual Satisfaction." From the time of Hippocrates until the 1920s, massaging female patients to orgasm was a staple of medical practice among Western physicians in the treatment of "hysteria," an ailment once considered both common and chronic in women. Doctors loathed this time-consuming procedure and for centuries relied on midwives. Later, they substituted the efficiency of mechanical devices, including the electric vibrator, invented in the 1880s. In "The Technology of Orgasm," Rachel Maines offers readers a stimulating, surprising, and often humorous account of hysteria and its treatment throughout the ages, focusing on the development, use, and fall into disrepute of the vibrator as a legitimate medical device. Friday, November 17, Borderlands Cafe in SF. All orientations, genders, and kinks (or lack thereof) are welcome.
