Mosex Curator Sarah Forbes Creates a Curated Photo Gallery of Obsessive Sex Collecting for Visual AIDS

03_large

Beyond the overtly sexual items found in collections, new meanings emerge when the implication of sex is tied to an object. A collection of pills, syringes, viles of blood and condoms is transformed when connected to sex in a post HIV/AIDS world. This selection of "collections" from the Visual AIDS archive is an exercise in perception for the viewer, curated with the unabashed implication of sex and sexuality.

The Deep Throat Sex Scandal

A sinfully entertaining play about freedom.

SAVE 50%
Now thru October 31st*

Performances begin September 17th

Who gets to decide what’s obscene in America? In 1976, it was 12 jurors in a Tennessee courtroom.

Finally the true story will be revealed: In 1972, a hairdresser from Queens made a little movie that grossed over $600 Million (possibly the most profitable film of all time) and ignited the sexual revolution. The Deep Throat Sex Scandal takes you behind the scenes, into the secret world of adult filmmaking and introduces you to the legendary Linda Lovelace and Harry Reems. Follow the bizarre journey from the creation of the movie, through the raids, arrests and the banning of the film, to the political fallout of the ensuing courtroom drama, which launched the career of Allen Dershowitz.

Come see the play about the movie that the government didn’t want you to see.

Performance Schedule:
Tue - Fri @ 8pm | Sat @ 7:30 & 11pm | Sun @ 4 & 7:30pm

Why doesn't America care about David Beckham's Sex Scandal?

Irma-david

Unlike the Tiger Woods sex scandal that gripped the universe less than a year ago, causing the most titanic downfall since Berlin circa April 1945, the cheating allegations against David Beckham haven't exactly penetrated the national consciousness. Why is that?

In Afghanistan, gender roles are reversed when girls often masquerade as boys

Gender-articlelarge

Afghan families have many reasons for pretending their girls are boys, including economic need, social pressure to have sons, and in some cases, a superstition that doing so can lead to the birth of a real boy. Lacking a son, the parents decide to make one up, usually by cutting the hair of a daughter and dressing her in typical Afghan men’s clothing.
