For the past couple years, we've been asking folks "Where did the sex go?” In the push for acceptance, many organizations and communities have distanced themselves even more from frank discussions of sexuality. Sometimes it appears that even leather groups are disavowing sex, in what we believe is a dishonest tactic to evade local zoning regulations and liquor laws. In this workshop, we will discuss how we can put sex back on the political agenda.
