Film on July 14:
Filming Desire (2000)
Female directors talk about the reality of an explicit women’s point of view, the desire in their films to “fantasize and dream a new image of themselves”, and how their depictions of sexuality and relationships are correctives.
+ Guest facilitator: Aspasia Bonasera, blogger at La Libertine’s Salon

Great article about a very interesting documentary film series. I think open talk about sex can really educate people into making smarter decisions as well as have a lot more fun in the bedroom (or wherever, of course!).
I think there is a lot of room for discussion about these topics and let's face it, fun but educational talk about sex is rare - but the resources are out there if you look for them!
Thanks for writing Jolie, you have a great series of articles here for lesbians and bisexual women and I look forward to reading more.
Hi Jen,
Thanks for stopping by my page. I post here Monday through Friday, except when I have something going on that prevents me from writing on a particular day. Glad you enjoy the articles and stay tuned for lots more. Be sure to subscribe to my page, as well! I hope to provide endless amounts of information for lesbian and bisexual women. I'm really glad Examiner accepted me onto their team of writers. It has been wonderful so far, and it has also brought me a couple of opportunities so far, as well. There's lots of exposure here.
