Not since February's Sex Week at Yale has the campus seen such an open discourse on sex and sexuality as it did last week.

Following the appearance of sex therapist Dr. Ruth at a Davenport College Master's Tea on Monday, Branford College on Friday afternoon hosted John Cameron Mitchell, an actor and director best known for his film and Broadway musical "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," a rock story about a transsexual, and "Shortbus," a film controversial for its use of real sex. Mitchell spoke openly to a packed room of students and faculty for an hour, hitting on subjects ranging from gay sex to pornography and masturbation.

That's great.  I would hate to see the people at Yale go a lifetime without having porn or knowing how to masturbate.  I rest easy now.
