I am writing this article in response to the campus dialogue about the Alternative Lifestyle Association and the GLBTQA community. I agree that both people fond of the same sex and people fond of BDSM share the similarity that their sexual practices are considered unusual, scary and even evil by our modern cultural standards.
This article is a response to David Brody’s article “The Ugly Truth: Why We Drink”. David claimed that the reason we drink at Washington University is that the students here are particularly ugly. I’ve heard this complaint many times since I arrived four years ago.
