Congresswoman Davis to Speak at Bisexual Conference Featuring Perverse ‘Workshops,’ Erotic Orgy 8/20/2003 GLSEN, Advocates for Youth, Task Force, and GLAAD sponsor radical event
[WARNING: Contains offensive descriptions]
A United States congresswoman will be a featured plenary speaker this weekend at an international bisexuality conference in Southern California that includes a pre-conference “Bi Youth” institute for “attendees who are 24 years of age or younger,” and assorted sexual workshops including a “XXX Sex Workshop” and one on masturbation.
Rep. Susan Davis (D-San Diego) is scheduled to address the third annual North American Conference on Bisexuality at the Radisson Hotel in San Diego this Saturday. According to the conference website, the event will feature “pre-conference institutes, workshops/panels on bisexuality, leading sex researchers, entertainment, and the chance to meet other people interested in bisexuality from the United States, Canada and Mexico.”
In addition to the children’s pre-institute conference, the event will include another institute titled, “Exploring Erotic Touch,” where “We will use touch, massage, imagination and self-pleasuring to awaken the connection between erotic energy and spirituality and between the feminine and masculine in ourselves.”
The website description further states, “Men are asked not [to] ejaculate for 48 hours before the workshop. All participants are asked to refrain from the use of alcohol or recreational drugs 72 hours before and during the workshop.”
The description indicates that bodily fluids are likely to flow at the event, leading Peter LaBarbera, senior policy analyst for the Culture & Family Institute, to observe: “The involvement of GLSEN and Advocates for Youth in such a perverted event should by itself disqualify them from any future involvement with schools. No taxpayer dollars should go to these organizations, which are obviously more interested in promoting radical sexual agendas than the health and safety of children.”
GLSEN holds its own national conference next month in Washington, D.C. According to the GLSEN website, it will include workshops such as: “Embracing Transgender Issues”; “Gender-Variant Youth 101”; “Corsets and Heels: Using Fashion History to Bend Gender Boundaries; and “Creative Writing Workshop for Queer Youth.”
CWA’s Moles speaks out Cindy Moles, area director for Concerned Women for America of San Diego and Imperial Counties, responded to news of Davis’ role in the bisexual conference as follows:
“In an age in which adulterous bisexual men are having homosexual affairs and infecting their innocent wives with HIV, why is a U.S. congresswoman lending the authority of her office to an event that celebrates this perversion? It is deplorable that Ms. Davis would offer to speak at a conference promoting sexual perversion, particularly one that promotes behavior that harms children and victimizes women.”
Moles told C&F Report that to include adults under 24 years old in a “youth” workshop that touches heavily on sexual issues is highly inappropriate, and could lead to adult-child sexual interaction.
“We must always remember that pedophiles and predators go where the kids are,” Moles said, noting that the conference is already attracting people identified with deviant and promiscuous sex. Efforts to reach Davis’ office for a statement, and to inquire whether she was aware of the conference’s debauched nature, were unsuccessful as of press time. On the daily radio show of Concerned Women for America, CWA President Sandy Rios urged listeners to call Davis’ office to protest her appearance at the bisexual event. Davis’ Washington, D.C., office phone number is 202-225-2040; her San Diego office number is 619-280-5353. Concerned readers can also e-mail the congresswoman at susan.davis@mail.house.gov.
GLAAD and GLSEN sponsor Other plenary speakers include executive director Joan Garry of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), which led the successful “gay” crusade to force Dr. Laura Schlessinger’s television program off the air, and Indiana University Professor Martin S. Weinberg, whose bio on the conference website states that he for “13 years had a joint appointment as Senior Research Sociologist at the Kinsey Institute.”
The description of the “Bi Youth” seminar states, “This BiYouth Pre-Conference Institute will provide participants a day and a half of inspiration, experiential activities, dialogue, honesty, networking, and fun. We will be focusing on five areas of life: School and Campus Life, Family and Relationships, Health, Religion and Spirituality, and Love and Sex.”
The conference's “bi youth” institute is being convened by one of the nation’s leading public school pro-homosexual pressure groups, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), and another organization, Advocates for Youth, that is under investigation by the Bush Administration for misusing federal abstinence funds.
On August 16, The Washington Post reported that the Centers for Disease Control was planning to conduct the third audit within a year of Advocates for Youth to look into charges of “possible misuse of grant funds for lobbying efforts.”
“The CDC said the review was in response to complaints from Rep. Joseph R. Pitts (R-Pennsylvania), an advocate for abstinence-only programs. Pitts and 23 other congressmen have questioned whether Advocates for Youth and other sex education organizations are improperly using federal funds to lobby in Congress. In particular, they were concerned about a website that advocates against increased funds for abstinence-only programs,” reported the Post.
Other workshops to be offered include:
On August 7, Bay Windows, New England’s largest homosexual newspaper, reported that STD and HIV infections are rising among ‘gay’ and bisexual men, and that Internet hook-up sites may be a contributing factor to risky sexual behavior, and three studies released last month by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that show that HIV diagnoses for gay and bisexual men have increased by 17.7 percent since 1999.
Other conference activities will include a bisexual art exhibit and entertainment by Rob Yaeger, who describes himself as “the Earth's only bisexual, genderqueer, trans-affectional, sex radical, frequently kinky, Catholic-raised agnostic-atheist, safer sex educating, sensitive but not too sensitive, biologically-born male stand-up commedian.”
In addition to GLAAD, Advocates for Youth and GLSEN, the bisexual conference sponsors include: American Airlines, Avis Rent-A-Car, the California Endowment, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF), the National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR), Bisexual Foundation, BiNet USA, the Intersex Society of North America (ISNA), and LLEGO, “the national Latina/o lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender organization.”
Rep. Davis’ district encompasses the Southern California seacoast from the wealthy northern suburb of La Jolla to the impoverished Mexican border in the south, plus several inland San Diego suburbs. |
