• ♺ @KinkForAll #KFADC is a free day of #sex #education presos. Just show up & help if you can. How? http://tr.im/Fh6s More http://tr.im/kfadc #
  • Touched down in Providence. Managed some rest if not sleep on the flight. Got more writing and thinking done on my #KFADC presentation, tho. #
  • Super excited to see @helio_girl once I get off the plane. I'll request & simultaneously offer hugs+cuddles. Probably also sexual favors. :) #
  • Does any1 know if #KFADC will have a #digital #projector? If not, where can I get one to make sure it does? Preferably cheap, rental option. #
  • @livingsexuality Talk to @clarissethorn, who started the Sex+++ documentary #film #series in Chicago. I think she'll offer some good advice. #
  • Working at a #TimHorton's. Mgmt asked me to leave so I buy more. They're still interrupting me. I'll never be back. #customer #service #fail #
  • Up early and heading to #KFADC. Acquired projector, finished presentation in marathon 14hr work session & even managed to sleep. Time to go! #
  • #Opening comms by @nikolasco has started. He's going thru legal reminders. People laughing at the vagueness of the law's definitions. #KFADC #
  • Yeah, space for #KFADC isn't compartmentalizee at all. I hope presentations don't get interrupted by nearby chatter. We'll keep voices down. #
  • #KFADC starts off with @MollyRen talking about #Feederism. Apparently there are (ONLY) 2 dating web sites for ppl who think "fat" is erotic. #
  • At #KFADC @MollyRen says mainstream depictions of #feederism show fat women w/extremely skinny men—reverse gender roles are totally ignored. #
  • "Can you even come out of the #closet on a fetish so rare it's not even on most kinky people's radar…?" @MollyRen says at #KFADC. #feederism #
  • Yet another reason why language is crucial—figuring out the terminology of the sexual stuff helped @MollyRen find partners to engage. #KFADC #
  • Fat activists don't like ppl into #feederism. Why? Maybe cuz it has a particularly bad rap & suffers from mainstream body image, too. #KFADC #
  • Biggest website for #feederism is http://MySpace.com. Ppl there also often aren't on any of either of the two dating websites for it. #KFADC #
  • Next, @Nikolasco is talking abt "Taoist Sexual Practices" for the next #KFADC. Only 1 presentation on at a time? Ppl seem content to listen. #
  • ♺ @KinkForAll: Avail yourself to the amazing shmorgasboard of #breakfast goodies. Bagels, tangerines and bunches of free soda. Enjoy! #KFADC #
  • Taoists believed that #abstinence is particularly unhealthy & can even be damaging to people's, @nikolasco tells us all at #KFADC. Huh…okay. #
  • I wish we had more computers at #KFADC. We have an amazing amount of bandwidth but not enough Internet-enabled equipment for a #live stream. #
  • Yes! @nikolasco is a @KinkForAll hero. ♺ @viviane212: Kudos to @nikolasco for all the (un)organizing he did to make #KFADC happen! 3 cheers! #
  • #KFADC @nikolasco: "I was looking at #taoism Wikipedia page; it says #sex is good, healthy & can lead to immortality. Sounds awesome to me!" #
  • Michael Rios talking at #KFADC about inherent violence in dominant society. #Sexuality is free yet culture has made it scarce and expensive. #
  • "Some people have made the analysis that the only way to have war is to have #sexual #repression," Michael Rios says at #KFADC. Interesting. #
  • Whoa: "for centuries, major driving factor to get #men to join the army is to have the opportunity to #rape women." That's fucked up. #KFADC #
  • Cool! Many others are tweeting at #KFADC. Check out @shadowandfire, @helio_girl & @MollyRen, among others. Or look at http://tr.im/kfadclive #
  • Michael Rios: "Most of us are conditioned to either say 'no' or 'yes' all the time. It's often difficult to actually make a #choice." #KFADC #
  • I'm going to be doing a talk on #adultism & #youth #sexual #oppression at #KFADC next. I'm nervous, but discussions are already about youth. #
  • My #presentation went well. I got surrounded w/ questions & comments afterwards, which is a really good sign. I'm glad I got a video. #KFADC #
  • The "how to start young person's group" presentation is full of tips: choose public venue close to mass transit, etc. Sounds like #KFADC. ;) #
  • Re TNG presentation: I think "advertising for people" and "recruitment" is the WRONG idea. This is not an army. Use neutral language. #KFADC #
  • Disagree w/as much as I agree w/in "young person's group" preso. Agree youth are scared, disagree you'll "lose" 1 if they don't stay. #KFADC #
  • I think the drive many people have to "recruit" people to The Sceneâ„¢ is actually the biggest contributor to creep factor #youth feel. #KFADC #
  • Unsurprisingly, seems that quite a number of presentations at #KFADC are about #youth. Turnout suffered from fear of minors—who ARE present. #
  • Good point! "It's really important not to think about #masculinity but as masculinities" Chris says in his presentation about #men at #KFADC #
  • @MollyRen I disagree; that's just an ageist spin on the discomfort we all feel when groups try to recruit is. Mormons, the army, etc. #KFADC in reply to MollyRen #
  • Dominant paradigm of masculinity sees men as barbarians—interestingly, that's similar to radical feminist perspective. Yup. #KFADC #feminism #
  • ♺ @nikolasco I strongly disagree with conservative theories of #maculinity; even having some trouble listening :/ but important to do #KFADC #
  • "Conservative biological theories see #masculinity as a function of evolution." That's where men=stud, women=slut thing come from. :( #KFADC #
  • @MollyRen I'm pretty sure the #masculinity presenter (Chris) doesn't actually believe these #conservative views. He's explaining them to us. #
  • ♺ @olorwen Time did an article on state of USA women that's interesting in context of conserv masculinity. http://tinyurl.com/yhwhjff #KFADC #
  • Taking a pseudo-break from tweeting in order to take some pictures & make sure the recording equipment is still up & running well. :) #KFADC #
  • Exceptionally difficult to create spaces where #sex & #sexuality isn't eroticized—it should be ok to NOT have a hard on all the time. #KFADC #
  • @writingdirty When @ASimon89 was wearing his sweater he was a lot like the @mrsexsmith in the room too. Maybe the 2 of you should get canes. in reply to writingdirty #
  • One thing I really like about open space meetings & #unconferences is how free I feel to NOT participate in whatever I don't want to. #KFADC #
  • @DarthBitsy Sure, but "promote" is very different than "recruit" or "advertise." I would encourage #community orgs to keep intentions clear. in reply to DarthBitsy #
  • Sarah Taub is leading an "experiential exercise" in remaining connected to another person while you're connected w/yourself. I think. #KFADC #
  • @writingdirty Totally agree. I don't think that would be inappropriate for @KinkForAll, tho. #Sexuality is often connected to #spirituality. in reply to writingdirty #
  • Strongly seconded. :) ♺ @trouthead: [I'm] too much of a spaz to connect w/myself right now. but greatly appreciates the presentation. #KFADC #
  • Loraine Hutchins talking about personal experiences as a #bisexuality #activist at #KFADC. She mentions how 'kink' definitions vary wildly. #
  • Loraine's talk switched into story readings. Very smooth. Although now I'm sadly less interested. Not my fav format but good writing! #KFADC #
  • Gerard & @DDog's #KFADC discussion is on the Q: defining "queer," "questioning," and similar ideas. I like that #queer can mean "curiosity." #
  • Hah! I love that! Best #neologism to come out of #KFADC: "queerious." :) ♺ @nikolasco: @maymaym queer-as-in-curious/interested = #queerious? #
  • #Queer doesn't inherently define what you DO as the words from #GLBT often do. Like #kink, it's much more often about you are ARE. ;) #KFADC #
  • Now at #Youth and #Leadership presentation by Evan. Mostly it's just us young'uns listening, so it's going to be a circle discussion. #KFADC #
  • 3 sessions at once=difficult to choose what I want to go to. That's great. :) Now at @helio_girl's "Wandering out of the closet" discussion. #
  • @shadowandfire Aww…. Evan thought !Youth & #Leadership preso didn't have enough interest, but even w/just a few of us, it was useful! #KFADC in reply to shadowandfire #
  • Everyone seems to have a different "coming out" story. Not all of 'em are about #sex. What might the world be like when nobody has 1? #KFADC #
  • @shadowandfire Aww…. Evan thought #Youth & #Leadership preso didn't have enough interest, but even w/just a few of us, it was useful! #KFADC #
  • "Personal risk is what you make of it" says @helio_girl. That's a very important point. People are vulnerable about different things. #KFADC #
  • "It's about trusting that, by & large, the world is not out get you," @helio_girl says. "And in where it is, I'll get it right back." #KFADC #
  • Amazing how many presentations are eagerly running long. @helio_girl's talk is still on but I'm now at "Gay Sfraight Alliances" #KFADC #GLBT #
  • Fantastic point in #GSA talk: many ppl don't realize how vital a supportive school admin is to running an effective GSA. #youth #GLBT #KFADC #
  • #Youth need support from adult allies. Visibility is very important to have ppl to talk to, to know you're okay. #Signs do help. #GSA #KFADC #
  • Running around like a chicken w/my head cut off to pick up the #timekeepers' role at #KFADC. Offered it to others to spread howto knowledge. #
