- I appreciate and enjoy what this commission does. GASC is very important today, in a time where high AIDS, other STD and teen pregnancy rates directly correlate to a lack of sex education. Furthermore, this year's commissioners have fostered creative dialogues among the various campus groups...where else could you find a Jew, a Muslim, and ["BrentLaabs"] talking about sex? This is also a time when parts of our society are finally recognizing the marginalization and bigotry towards homosexual and transgender inviduals who do not fall into traditional views of sexuality. By fostering a sexuality dialgoue they work to expand societal acceptance of the LGBTI community. Funding GASC only takes about $0.01 out of my pocket, well here is $0.02.

The former is the same logic that the DARE program uses - which is why they don't talk about actually doing drugs, just that you ought not to do them. The consequences of actually doing them are not discussed. Similarly, conservatives don't like AIDS awareness or homosexual discussion in general, because once again, they think people ought not be doing them so it would be best not to talk about them. Any logical person that isn't bent up on emotional prejudices can see just where this approach would lead to - and it's not down a bright and cheery path.

I've heard people say it is a liberal event while it is aimed at education without politics being involved at all. I think the people who focus on GASC using student fees should see where else their student fees go to. Places like the Health Center that give educational sessions on birth control are funded with student fees. Places like the Womens' Center, the LGBTRC, and more are all funded, in part, by student fees. These places all have a goal of educating and improving the physical, mental, social, and sexual health of the students - not some liberal agenda. - ["RohiniJasavala" Ro] - * I can understand the "against" point of view; the Health Center and Womens' Center are focused on health, safety and support. This is pretty much focused on "how to have kinky sex". That said, I support it... but because I support education and discussion of anything to adults. This seems to draw a crowd and is thus in demand... so was the Pixies concert last year. That all said, if I didn't think it was appropriate for adults to be educated on and discuss kinky sex, I would be upset about it. I think it's a healthy edge... there will be "edge" activities that some people don't want, and "over the edge" activities that the majority of people don't want. I could probably find a group of people willing to lecture on zooaphilia, but I think that would be "over the edge". Thus the line is drawn... when the majority of people involved want it gone, rather than a single person or minority. -- ["JabberWokky" jw]	+ The critiques I have read basically take the approach of "This shouldn't be done, so this shouldn't be talked about."

- There has been much to do about a certain Mason who videotaped a public event at UC Davis known as ["Generation Sex Week"]. Controversy surrounds this event due to the fact that Mason videotaped in an officially designated ASUCD Sex Toy ["Safe Zone"], while posing as a liberal filmmaker. I am proud to say that I am the Mason who dared to cross that vague parameter no filmmaker has ever dared to cross. Although I have been the eye of the storm regarding the GASC filming incident, I have never been officially approached by any news media whatsoever or asked to give a public account of what happened. Allow me the pleasure of giving you unreported facts regarding this humorous sequence of events (no seriously, you would have laughed your head off). - - '''["Safe Zone" Safe Zones] simply do not exist, ask your friendly family attorney.''' - When people say what I did was illegal, they do so on the basis that I violated a ["safe zone"], although if you asked any lawyer if he could tell you what a ["safe zone"] was, he would have no idea what you were talking about. Allow me to offer one reason why the vast majority of US citizens and legal analysts have absolutely no clue what these mysterious zones are: the answer is that no such zones are recognized in Federal, State or City Law. This leaves a few nagging questions which must be asked: If safe zones do not exist in any written law, cannot be legally enforced and would not stand up in the court of law, then why on earth am I being accused of violating them? What are safe zones and who has this divine authority to create them? Since no such "["safe zone" safe zones]" are described in any lawbooks known to man, I can only draw the amateur conclusion that they were created by someone (possibly a student) for the convenience of enforcing certain behavioral codes not already implicit in our laws to sanctify the GASC sex toy extravaganza. The Sex Toy Workshops were made possible through student funds, and consequently open to the public; public events may be videotaped. If I make a speech in the center of the quad, I cannot make that quad a safe zone for my convenience because it is public property and by speaking I am making public statements. The same goes to the individuals who participated in public acts of soft-core porn in a lecture hall filled with roughly 200 fellow students. Unless those who participated were blind and deaf, they knew they were performing for the student body. I have some unfortunate news for those who rely on ["safe zone" safe zones] to exempt themselves from public scrutiny: when you enter a ["safe zone"] you exit reality. - - '''Show me a progressive, Ill show you a Libertarian and a Communist.''' - I never said I was liberal. That is a plain distortion of the facts, and I cannot allow it to continue. I said I was progressive. Funny how SOME people define the word progressive. The point of this was to allow me to get past the wall of GASC members at the door who explicitly stated before I crossed that taxpayer threshold that "no conservative filmmakers would be allowed to film the event". I got what I wanted on tape, tape I am glad to produce: their admission that ASUCD and GASC do not treat people of varying ideologies the same. - - '''Intentions''' - I have not released any of the videotape, nor do I intend to in a fashion that would embarrass any of its participants or make a mockery out of the event. My goal was simply to demonstrate the bias that goes by unrecognized by our own University, Bias in direct conflict with the Principles of Community by which I proudly abide. - - '''Something they dont have.''' - People are welcome to say and think what they please. I thank you for your time and consideration of this untold facet of the never-ending GASC saga. I have the blessed assurance that my opinion and record of the events is not based on faint recollections that have been shrouded and distorted by malcontent and fear of exposure. I have something they dont.

Furthermore, this year's commissioners have fostered creative dialogues among the various campus groups...where else could you find a Jew, a Muslim, and ["BrentLaabs"] talking about sex? This is also a time when parts of our society are finally recognizing the marginalization and bigotry towards homosexual and transgender inviduals who do not fall into traditional views of sexuality. By fostering a sexuality dialgoue they work to expand societal of the LGBTI community. Funding GASC only takes about $0.01 out of my pocket, well here is $0.02.

Allow me to offer one reason why the vast majority of US citizens and legal analysts have absolutely no clue what these mysterious zones are: the answer is that no such zones are recognized in Federal, State or City Law. This leaves a few nagging questions which must be asked: If safe zones do not exist in any written law, cannot be legally enforced and would not stand up in the court of law, then why on earth am I being accused of violating them? What are safe zones and who has this divine authority to create them? Since no such "safe zones" are described in any lawbooks known to man, I can only draw the amateur conclusion that they were created by someone (possibly a student) for the convenience of enforcing certain behavioral codes not already implicit in our laws to sanctify the GASC sex toy extravaganza. The Sex Toy Workshops were made possible through student funds, and consequently open to the public; public events may be videotaped. If I make a speech in the center of the quad, I cannot make that quad a safe zone for my convenience because it is public property and by speaking I am making public statements. The same goes to the individuals who participated in public acts of soft-core porn in a lecture hall filled with roughly 200 fellow students. Unless those who participated were blind and deaf, they knew they were performing for the student body. I have some unfortunate news for those who rely on safe zones to exempt themselves from public scrutiny: when you enter a safe zone you exit reality. + ''' + Show me a progressive, Ill show you a Libertarian and a Communist.''' + I never said I was liberal. That is a plain distortion of the facts, and I cannot allow it to continue. I said I was progressive. Funny how SOME people define the word progressive. The point of this was to allow me to get past the wall of GASC members at the door who explicitly stated before I crossed that taxpayer threshold that "no conservative filmmakers would be allowed to film the event". I got what I wanted on tape, tape I am glad to produce: their admission that ASUCD and GASC do not treat people of varying ideologies the same. + + '''Intentions''' + I have not released any of the videotape, nor do I intend to in a fashion that would embarrass any of its participants or make a mockery out of the event. My goal was simply to demonstrate the bias that goes by unrecognized by our own University, Bias in direct conflict with the Principals of Community by which I proudly abide. + ''' + Something they dont have.''' + People are welcome to say and think what they please.
