Thuri Calafia presents...
In Search of Aphrodite
When: 1st and 3rd Friday nights
Where: Portland, Oregon
In Search of Aphrodite - a healing and support group for women
Event Details: This discussion and support group is facilitated by Thuri Calafia, and is designed to help women explore, discover, heal, and nurture their sexuality in a support group atmosphere where everyone has a voice. Admission is free – but donations are always welcome.
Topics will include both new and different subjects, and subjects from past group discussions - all around finding and freeing our truest sexuality. Some nights will be discussion, some nights, ritualized activities designed to help women discover and free the deeper mysteries of their sexuality, some nights will be field trips to local venues for entertainment, refreshment, and blatant acting up! There will be a chance to choose the next session’s topic at every group session, which Thuri will post publicly - both here and at other venues, depending on interest.
Full Topic List (includes but is not limited to) :
Finding Partners - Dating with an Aphrodite consciousness
Erotica vs. pornography
Who is/was Aphrodite, anyway?
The darker side of human sexuality
Contradictions in advertising (sex as taboo, sex as commodity) & other cultural messages.
Overcoming western domestication
The fusion of sex & violence
BDSM and power exchange relationships.
Body image
Gender -based differences in how children are treated
What is "normal" or "natural" sexuality/cultural swings - from puritanical to permissive and everything in between.
Self-discovery in spite of a rigid cultural philosophy - what are our choices, really? (orientation, drive, and lovestyle - from monogamy to swinging to polyamory) .
Sacred sexuality & sex magic
Tantra
Finding and freeing your inner Aphrodite
Labels and taboos
Event Location: none presently in Portland
Event TIME Details: 7pm to 9pm
Directions: Unfortunately, the venue for this support group is no longer available, so the group is in a holding pattern for now. This is only temporary, however, and I will post the new venue for this wonderful group as soon as one is secured.
