A Few Updates...

You all probably got this email, but I usually don't open them so here's the info in case anyone is interested:

Robyn Ochs returns to JMU's campus for two more workshops that will question and stimulate your views on gender and sexuality. Join her as she transgresses the binary categories of gay/straight, masculine/feminine, black/white and/or male/female.

Name: Bisexuality, Feminism, Men & Me

Date: Feb. 18, 09
Time: 12:15-1:15
Location: Taylor 304

Do you know what makes a man "a man"? What makes a woman "a woman"? We will look at the ways in which we are limited by a binary understanding of gender, and explore how the politics of gender tie together the feminist, queer and transgendered movements. Come, and bring your gender with you!


Name: Beyond Binaries: Identity and the Sexuality Spectrum

Date: Wednesday, February 18, 2009
Time: 8:00pm - 9:00pm
Location: Festival Ballroom

Wanna talk sexuality? Robyn's workshop will discuss uses and limitations of the Kinsey scale and other measures of sexual orientation, with attention to factors such as sex, gender, time, and more.


ALSO there have been several new "Target Women" vidz from Sarah Haskins recently. Most of them can be related to Valentine's Day. Highlights include Chocolate, Jewelry, Online Dating, or Diets.

And one more thing... and thoughts on taking turns taking notes at meetings? Then putting the info up here? Kind of like Annie did with how to chart your cycles. Since I haven't been able to make the past couple meetings I think it would be cool!
