Museum Of Sex







I visited the Museum of Sex this week. (There is a $5 off coupon on their web page.) It's a nice little museum that approaches sex as a part of life. There is nothing pornographic or obscene about the museum. There is an exhibit on sex and people with disabilities, which is extremely informative and important for everyone to see. I think there is a tendency to forget that people with disabilities have the same needs as everyone else. There is also an exhibit on the history of sex in films, which included a show of banned commercials from commercial closet. The other exhibit is on fetishes. The museum emphasises that as long as no one is getting hurt, and everything is consensual, there is nothing wrong. Although some of these things were a little too much for my taste, it is good to see how others live. Again, just another way of increasing tolerance.

The museum changes exhibits all the time. Last time I was there the exhibits were completely different. It was a fun and informative day. I didn't want to take too many pictures inside, but I especially liked the new way to use the internet. The other pictures are just the Empire State Building, view form 28th St, the sink in the ladies room and the stair case and "out of this world picture are from subway. Next week is back to work week, so my fun pictures will end and the bitching will return. I know I can retire if I want, but I'm not ready. I'll just keep on going in and find lots to complain about.

Maybe you could combine the bitching with the pictures and take pictures of things you'd like to bitch about?
