Safe Sex Poetry Reading for World AIDS Day

The Baguio Writers Group and the Ubbog (a group of younger Baguio writers) will be holding a poetry reading on safe sex on December 1 at Rumours Bar in celebration of the International AIDS Day. Entitled: RIBBED, DOTTED OR STRAWBERRY, the reading will have the poets celebrating sex and romance without the life-changing results like pregnancy and STD. Virtual sex, condoms, the ineffectiveness of rhythm as a contraceptive method and bondage are among the subjects of the poems to be read. Ten of the poets would be reading and an open-mike follows. The poems would be the seed of a book on safe sex literature (definitely will not be considered for the Catholic Mass Media Awards) expected to come out next year. Sponsors of the reading are Rumours, Philippine NGO Council on Health, Population and Welfare and DKT Philippines. For more details contact: brutallyfrank@gmail.com
