  • CDR's Kink Interest & Willingness Inventory
    Name ___________________________ 1 CDR’s Kink Interest & Willingness Inventory Purpose: This inventory is designed to help facilitate communication between you and your partner about your kink and sexual interests, desires and curiosities as well as to gauge your willingness to try things outside your own interests if it means pleasing your partner. Directions: 1. Decide if you wish to fill this out as someone taking on the role of a dominant/top, submissive/bottom or (if the role you like to take varies) as a switch. 2. Fill out your copy of this inventory privately. Try not to rush. 3. Set a time to sit down with your partner to exchange inventories, read them and discuss. This should be outside the bedroom, like over coffee, where there is no pressure to immediately try any of the activities. Rate your interest or willingness on a scale of 0 to 3, as a hard limit or unknown: • 0 = I have no interest, but it’s not a hard limit • 1 = I have very little interest or willingness • 2 = I have some interest or willingness • 3 = I am very interested or willing • X = This is a hard limit. I am not willing to do this under any circumstances. • ? = I don’t know what this is. Definitions: “Interested In” is about your desires. It means that you would like, or think you would like, to experience this activity. “Willing To” is about experimenting with or pleasing your partner. It indicates your level of willingness to try something for your partner, regardless of your own level of interest in an activity.

  • AMERICAN INFERNO by PATRICK DENKER
    AMERICAN INFERNO by PATRICK DENKER (Under the Direction of Reginald McKnight) ABSTRACT American Inferno, a novel, is a loose transposition of Dante‟s Inferno into a contemporary American setting. Its chapters (or “circles”) correspond to Dante‟s nine circles of Hell: 1) Limbo, 2) Lust, 3) Gluttony, 4) Hoarding & Wasting, 5) Wrath, 6) Heresy, 7) Violence, 8) Fraud and 9) Treachery. The novel‟s Prologue — Circle 0 — corresponds to the events that occur, in the Inferno, prior to Dante‟s and Virgil‟s entrance into Hell proper. The novel is a contemporary American moral inquiry, not a medieval Florentine one: thus it is sometimes in harmony with and sometimes a critique of Dante‟s moral system. Also, like the Inferno, it is not an investigation just of its characters‟ personal moral struggles, but also of the historical sins of its nation: for Dante, the nascent Italian state; for us, the United States. Thus the novel follows the life story of its principal character as he progresses from menial to mortal sins while simultaneously considering American history from America‟s early Puritan foundations in the Northeast (Chapters 1-4) through slavery, civil war and manifest destiny (Chapters 5-7) to its ultimate expression in the high-technology West-Coast entertainment industry (Chapters 8-9).

  • DIVERSE SEXUAL PRACTICES There Are Many Different Ways of Having Sex, and Different People Have Their Own Preferences for Sexual Activities
    HIV COUNSELOR PERSPECTIVES Volume 10 Number 4 July 2001 DIVERSE SEXUAL PRACTICES There are many different ways of having sex, and different people have their own preferences for sexual activities. Although some sexual activities pose a high risk for HIV infection because they involve potential contact with bodily fluids such as blood, other activities may place participants at risk because of the particular dynamics of the situation. It is important for HIV test counselors to have a basic understanding about the varieties of sexual expression and to be comfortable discussing diverse sexual practices with clients. This issue of PERSPECTIVES provides an overview of a variety of sexual activities and a discussion of the related HIV risks and safety measures. between consenting adults.

  • Pulling Together: Making Meaning of Extreme Flesh Practices
    PULLING TOGETHER: MAKING MEANING OF EXTREME FLESH PRACTICES By Alicia D. Horton A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY IN CONFORMITY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF ARTS QUEEN‟S UNIVERSITY KINGSTON, ONTARIO, CANADA APRIL 2010 Copyright Alicia D. Horton, 2010 Abstract This thesis puts forth an ethnographic, contextual social constructionist account of the non-mainstream body manipulations practiced at the annual Body & Soul body modification event in Western Canada. The radical practices at this event include sewing limes and other items to one‟s body, flesh hook pulling, and/or receiving “third eye” piercings and cheek skewers; thus, it constitutes an example of extreme deviance subject to negative reactions from outsiders. This research assumes that meaning is discursively and symbolically constituted by people via an active process of claimsmaking wherein competition for definitional control of reality ensues. From a qualitative stance, data were derived from a combination of participant observation fieldwork at Body & Soul and subsequent in-depth interviews with participants. The results demonstrate a trend in the (counter)claimsmaking activity of practitioners of this extreme form of body modification wherein paradoxically the nature of their deviance is reconstructed and aligned with conformist goals via discursive, corporal, and symbolic claims that simultaneously offer an implicit critique of mainstream Western culture. The results are interpreted as part of a discursive competition for definitional control of extreme body modification, strategy in the negotiation and management of a stigmatized identity, means of implicit social criticism, and an unconventional expression of conventional values. ii Acknowledgements Thank you to those of you who have influenced my approach to this research and who have encouraged me to continue on this path.

Körpermodifikationen und Modern Primitivism als Ausdrucksformen einer neuen (und alten) Körperlichkeit Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktors der Philosophie dem Fachbereich Gesellschaswissenschaen und Philosophie der Philipps-Universität Marburg vorgelegt von Christian Klotz aus Lüdenscheid im Jahr 2012 Abstracts Diese Arbeit zeigt anhand des Beispiels der Körpermodikation in welcher Form der Mensch in der Lage ist, sich sowohl praktisch als auch diskursiv mit dem eigenen Körper auseinander zu setzen. Es wird deutlich, dass besonders in den westlichen Gesellschaften seit dem Mittelalter ein großes Unbehagen am eigenen Körper vorhanden ist. This work shows by the example of body modication how humans are capable of engaging with their own bodies, both in a practical as well as in a discursive manner. It is shown that humans, especially in Western societies since the Middle Ages, feel an unease about their own bodies.
