Spit or Swallow - Spoken Word Gig

Spit or Swallow: Sex in an Age of Scandals and Virtual Reality

Who’s afraid of sex? Iloilo is, apparently. There was massive clamor over the showing of Brokeback Mountain, but hushed voices about double-showing porno movies in Mariz, Golden, Kathy, and Vision Theaters—all dead sex dens by now.

Cultural observers say Iloilo is living on a double standard: We penalize prostitution but give out pink cards to "sex workers." We hate perverts but we share sex scandal videos. We hate sex maniacs but we have Catholic priests getting caught making out with students in cars. What’s going on?

It’s because sex doesn’t know right from wrong, black from white, heaven from hell. Join us again at Shellsyd on November 28, at 5:30 PM for a short time. We will go oral as we feature the sexually charged poems of foremost Ilonggo gay poets Felino S. Garcia, Peter Solis Nery, and others. It’s open mic--public and perverts are welcome, but please keep your zippers closed.
