Caberet Tuesday.

assistant editor
On Tuesday, March 23, students
filled the Studio Theater for the sec
ond annual Safe Sex Cabaret spon
sored by Trigon. Trigon put on this
night as an “evening devoted to the
eroticizing of safer sex” as a way to
prevent HIV.
In the pamphlet that was passed
out at the door, Trigon gives the two
basic rules for safer sex: keep your
partner’s body fluids out ot your va
gina, anus, and mouth, and don’t
touch sores that are caused by sexu
ally transmitted infections. The pre
sentations that were put on show stu
dents safe ways to avoid those ac
tions.

The evening was divided into
three parts: seduction, combustion,
and manifestation. The seduction sec
tion included presentations on aph
rodisiacs, massage, forbidden fash
ion, and romance in the bathtub. This
section presented information on
foreplay and the build up to combus
tion. The combustion section gave
the audience a demonstration of the
different ways to reach orgasms, in
cluding masturbation and sex toys,
condoms and dental dams, lubrica
tion, lesbian sex, and tantric sex. The
final section of the night, called mani
festation, included a discussion on
AIDS, with refreshments served af
terwards.
