We're going to: "Sex +++ presents 'Bi the Way'"

2009_04_11_bi.jpg The biweekly film series Sex +++ will once again be meeting at the Hull-House Museum this Tuesday. A gathering of the sex-positive community, this week's topic (sixth in the series) is bisexuality, via a screening of the documentary "Bi the Way."

From the Sex Positive press release:

"'Bi The Way' intimately follows four young (ages 15-29) lives in different parts of the country, testing the waters of our country's tolerance and its concept of “bi” through interviews with the makers of "The OC," Ani DiFranco, sex researchers, Dan Savage, Angelina Jolie, teens, politicians, activists, Alan Cumming, a cage fighter, “change” therapists, the director of "Planet of the Bisexuals," college students, religious leaders, musicians, historians, the guys at Burger King, and the list goes on.

"This documentary highlights young people who are “under the radar” -- questioning their sexuality without really drawing attention to it, or even necessarily being aware that they're doing it -- and uses the main characters' stories as a jumping-off point to explore the larger issues of bisexuality: What does the word bisexual really mean? What are the stereotypes of and challenges to a bisexual lifestyle? Can any label on sexuality really describe a person? And where is our society's sexuality headed?"

RSVP by calling 312.413.5353.

The series repeats on the second and fourth Tuesdays of every month.
