Dan Savage, a renowned sexuality specialist is speaking at the UAlbany Campus Center Ballroom on Tuesday, February 10th at 8PM. He is better known for writing Savage Love, which is a humurous and often controversial commentary on sexuality. Savage, an open homosexual, describes growing up in a ”loud, argumentative, very catholic family.” The journalist has appeared on The Colbert Report, HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher, and is now the Editorial Director of “The Stranger” –a Seattle based weekly newspaper.
This event will headline UAlbany’s Sexuality Week, which provides students with educational activities that bring up many topics of interest correlating to sex. According to UAlbany’s website, the issues brought up include “gender issues, HIV/AIDS, relationships, identity, and reproductive health.” Other events going on this week include “European Approaches to Sex Education, presented by Carol Strenger” and “Danger Zones: Locating Gender in Hot Spots of Race and Sexuality.” Sexuality week is coordinated by The Middle Earth Peer Assistance program.
