College lectures

ssctThe Study Sex College Tour offers a wide range of lecture topics to choose from. While all of the workshops incorporate content addressing sexual health, sexual pleasure, decision making skills, consent, and gender and sexual orientation, the main focus may be tailored to your individual needs. Here are some examples:

General adult sexuality: Great for students who really want to focus in on decision making skills, sexual health issues and/or want to appeal to a wide audience range.

Pleasure Focused: If you are looking to have your campus group make a mark, these workshops will get people talking for sure! Although these lectures zero in on the potential for pleasure, rest assured they still do address sexual health and decision making skills.

Political Focus: These workshops focus on the morality and ethical issues, court cases, and societal conflicts that lead to heated discussions on Tumblr or Facebook. If you want to leave your participants pondering different viewpoints, while still having a fun time, think about having Megan lecture on one of these topics.

Read on to see what strikes your fancy most.

Getting A Grip: Mastering Your Sexuality

getting_a_grip_2013Do you remember the first time you ever held a steering wheel? It felt weird, didn’t it? To become comfortable with new experiences, including sexual ones, our bodies need time to develop “muscle memory”. Since sexual expression can involve complex interactions with other people, being sexual requires flexible new muscle memory that can deal with all the balls you have to juggle!

Join Megan Andelloux for this two hour long interactive lecture on developing your sexual self-understanding: from becoming comfortable with what you want, to learning how to communicate those desires to partners. You’ll learn more about understanding and entertaining your own wants and need, what other people are secretly into, masturbation techniques (fundamental to exploring your sexuality!) and verbal and non- verbal communication tools. A special focus will be given on how to either give enthusiastic consent or turn people down considerately.

Orchestrating Orgasms

orchestrating_orgasms_2013Freud talked to us about the appropriate “types,” pop culture magazines scream from the shelves that we could be having better ones, and many people experience deep guilt in their quest to experience them. Still, what actually ARE orgasms? For something so celebrated, very few individuals can give a straight definition; people are seemingly just supposed to be grateful if they have them!

The simultaneous mystery and ubiquity of “The Big O” has created a fascination with orgasms, but hasn’t provided a perfect answer to the big questions people ask about them. Fortunately, Oh Megan is here to help!

In this captivating workshop, you will learn about the biological, psychological and sociological issues surrounding orgasms. What types of orgasms are there? How can one have more orgasms? Why do they feel so good? Why do some people struggle to have them? With the use of images, participation, videos, and genital models, Orchestrating Orgasms will bring down the house in a perfect symphony.

Getting Wordy and Talking Dirty…

getting_wordy_2013 Looking for a more perfect union of you and your partners’ desires? Trying to figure out what gets you off and how to say that to your partner? Interested in exploring what an ethical sexuality might look like? In this workshop, Oh Megan will take you through the cultural norms surrounding flirting and hooking up; sexual shame (and how it holds you back sexually); and figuring out what type of sex you want!

Consent is sexy – and integral to your sexy time – in this two hour workshop participants will improve their sexicon with fun new phrases to spice up playtime, learn more about consent and how to tell their partner what they want in bed, and explore the many ways they can get off!

Secret Fantasies will cover some of the more common naughty thoughts people have (like talking dirty, rough sex, and anal play), and debunk sexual myths (like “good feminists don’t use porn” or “you’ll become desensitized the more sexually ‘experimental’ you are”) while giving you the cold hard facts. Finally, Secret Fantasies will help you open the door to a variety of new sexual possibilities, and advise you about how you can explore them in a safe and risk-aware manner.

NSFW

NSFW
Not safe for work? While smut may not be suitable for your school work environment, is it suitable for you? Join Oh Megan as she deconstructs the dizzying dialogue surrounding pornography and works to answer the questions: “Can porn be ethical? Is pornography inherently harmful?”

Through activities, discussion, and media, participants will consider the themes in mainstream porn and ponder whether or not all porn is created equal. Working through the tactics of anti-porn activists and the faulty research they often employ, this session will provide participants the tools to define for themselves what constitutes ethically made porn. Resources for locating sex positive professional organizations, and ethically made porn will be provided at the close of this discussion.
