(WASHINGTON DC) -- Is Washington DC ready for a weekend of sex positive entertainment and education from both Darklady and Carol Queen? With security levels currently at "Elevated" -- it's just possible.

Friday, September 08, 2006 Readings & Performances with Portland's Darklady and San Francisco's Carol Queen (CarolQueen.com) Music by "Uncle Frazier's" band Memory Leak (MemoryLeakMusic.com)

Saturday, September 09, 2006 First-Ever Washington DC Masturbate-A-Thon hosted by Dr. Carol Queen, Dr. Robert Lawrence and Darklady. 9:00 pm - 2:00 am $20/per night the Crucible (the-crucible.com) 1816 Half Street, SW, Washington DC.

Both nights are fundraisers for the Woodhull Freedom Foundation and Center for sex and Culture WoodhullFoundation.org CenterForSexAndCulture.com

Friday: The music of Memory Leak kicks off the evening, followed by a Darklady Improv explaining what it's like to be a fallen Catholic girl who grew up to be a professional porn reviewer and a Masturbate-a-Thon organizer. Learn about what happens when she's alone in her shower when she reads "Mother, May I," published in Guilty Pleasures, from Black Books.

Then join the incomparable Dr. Carol Queen, San Francisco's most famous sexologist, for a virtual backstage tour of the Lusty Lady Theater, as Carol gives another wildly popular performance of "Peep Show," her story of life behind the locked doors of the Private Pleasures Booth.

Saturday: Cum for a cause during Washington DC's first Masturbate-a-Thon Fundraiser. Help raise money for sex-positive causes while exploring the good sex available at the end of your own hand. Live Masturbate-a-Thon founders Carol Queen and Robert Lawrence join Portland's Masturbate-a-Thon impresaria Darklady as your evening's hosts

There are three ways to participate: 1) Get masturbation pledges from yourself, friends, or strangers! Minimum total pledge is $20. 2) be a voyeur! Watch the fun from the mezzanine. No cameras of any kind, though! 3) Share a helping hand like they do in Portland by inviting a friend into the Jack-and-Jill-Off Room for some non-intercourse fun.
