The Museum of Sex

See? Now I have a reason to go to Montana...

It really was very cool and the animal part was well-intended, and interesting, it just comes off a little strange for those that don't have any interest in animal science. I did however learn that bottle nosed dolphins (in addition to turtles) masturbate, and will use the toys the trainers give them for tricks to do so. Might come in handy if I'm ever on some perverse form of Jeopardy... less

I was at the Museum of Sex in NY last week.

Overall, I liked it. I probably could have lived without the exhibit on the sex lives of animals - seeing a turtle use a kickball to masturbate was not my cup of tea, and I may never get the phrase 'homoxexual necrophiliac mallard ducks' out of my head. But the "Rubbers" exhibit was cool, the paperwork distributed to soldiers from the war department on how not to contract STD's and what to do if you did was interesting, and the exhibit featuring sex and the moving image was awesome - even the way it was laid out with old black and white films being projected on large raised platforms on the floor was very cool. It was worth the admission price, and in a year when the exhibits have changed, I'll probably go again.

Has anyone else here been there? What did you think? If you were local, would you go? less

Sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out next time I'm in the area.

As for the ducks, well, in my experience, ducks will jump anything. A dead mallard is actually a pretty tame target for a horny male duck, since it's actually the same species. Roosters, barn cats, goats, an old boot -- ducks just ain't that picky. less
