3. The students where warned and they are all adults
I for one and glad the way the University is handling this. Plus I can guarantee you that everyone single male 16 and up has seen his fair share of nudity and a good chunk of females as well.

4. What it salacious or was it designed to bring understanding to human sexuality?
Also, have the witches been hunted down and burned yet?

8. What am I suppose to tell my children about this????
Isn't that the standard question from tightasses about things that otherwise have nothing to do with their lives?

9. I don't know
I wasn't there.

And I am sure that anyone that complained resembles the late Maude Flanders.

13. What happens between a consenting adult and a XXX lightsaber...
is none of our bussiness.

Jesus Pizza, not to many years ago they used to have the equivalent of tupper ware parties with sex toys in all the burbs.

15. They still do.
It's generally a multi-level marketing scheme like Mary Kay and the like, but they still have them.

14. Welcome to Post-Modernist academia
Sexual issues in any contemporary academic setting are invariably going to be weird, when I was in college there was a course on porn, and is was basically a pervy old professor sharing his video collection and speaking at length about his great love of lesbians...

Appropriate: No
Par for the course: Probably.

16. Ridiculous stunts like this put higher education in a terrible light.
One of the most moronic things I've ever heard. What was the purpose?

Did you see that high speed drill "toy"?

That woman must be a kook - that thing looked like it would cause an emergency visit to the urologist or gyne!
