Sexy San Francisco

I don't really know where to begin with this blog. As you can see from my previous entries, they are all stretched few and far in between. I have been struggling to keep an up to date blog so that I can pursue my interests in gender and feminist work, but the little distractions that life hands us every day has kept me from maintaining this blog as an up to date piece of work and expression of my mind.

As of right now, I am currently writing this from inside a cafe in San Francisco. I am a native New Yorker, so why am I in San Francisco? I am currently studying sex through the National Sexuality Resource Center, at their Summer Institute program. I have been having a crazy, sexy, beautiful love affair with San Francisco and this program that I am in. I am so intrigued, inspired, and can't get enough of it all, yet at times so perplexed and inquisitive. My occasional confusion only inspires me to want more, to take more in, to savor every taste of what I am being served and hold back the desire ask for seconds. But I can't resist, and I keep coming back for more.

I have learned so much from my classwork, my peers, and my experience. I have studied and found an interest in topics such as sex tourism, binaries, sex education, social responsibility and sexual attitudes, power dynamics, cross-generational relationships, polyamory, genderism, sex panics, kink, and sex for those with disabilities. I hope that in this blog, I will be able to write at least one entry that explores each of these topics just a little bit more.

Here, I have experience a great deal of new adventures. Some firsts include: the PRIDE parade, going to a gay club, samba dancing, learning how to garden and tend chickens, getting an in-depth explanation to the art of "fisting,"taking a trip to a safe sex club (although we just got a lecture in the sex ed room, no tour!), and have just met an incredible number of people from all different backgrounds that I have never known on such a personal level before.

I really have found such a passion with exploring sexuality, sociology, and the San Francisco environment. It gives me the kind of pleasure that is almost as intense as an orgasm.

I'll write more on the topics mentioned above, plus others, in blogs that are soon to follow. I will try to make a list of local resources that I have discovered an been introduced to in San Francisco. Although this blog is in it's early stages with possibly no fans, if you should come across this, please leave some topic ideas for me!

Keep it real, kids. Til next time,
Mea
