Hey sex fans,

Sex EDGE-U-cation with Debra Christina Darling – Podcast #135 – 07/01/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

Debra & Karen And now for something completely different. Ya’ll know how through this Sex EDGE-U-cation podcast series, we’ve been looking at the world of fetish sex, kink and alternative sexual lifestyles, right? And how we’ve been chatting with prominent educators, practitioners and advocates of unconventional sexual expressions and lifestyles from all over the world, right?

Well then, today we take another walk on the wild side. I bring you Part 1 of my conversation with a true original. My guest is the one and only Debra Christina Darling.

Debra self-identifies as a straight drag queen. That’s right you heard me; he’s a straight man who crossdresses, and has done so for most of his life. But what’s so special about that? Lots of straight men crossdress. This is true! But few are as “out there” and as willing to challenge some of the popular notions of sex and gender held by both those inside, and outside, the crossdressing community. I can assure you sex fans, Debra has balls and the attitude to match; thus the drag queen designation, don’t cha know.

You won’t want to miss a minute of this exceptional discussion!

Debra and I discuss:

Crossdressing vs. transvestism.
Her own personal journey and her activism.
Famous crossdressers in history.
Reasons why people crossdress, and the challenges.
The sexual charge of gender specific clothing.
Common myths of crossdressing.
Advice for parents of crossdressing kids.
Male crossdressing / female crossdressing, the double standard.

Debra shares with us several crossdressing resources and invites you to check them out. The Esprit Conference, Karen Williams’ site, The Emerald City and The Ingersoll Center.

The Erotic Mind of René Capone — Podcast #132 — 06/22/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

Judging from the comments pouring in from all over, I guess ya’ll are really enjoying these special pride month podcasts, huh? The last two weeks I featured the brilliant work of Mike. from MikeMen. Today and next week we have as our guest a gay visual artist of a completely different stripe. As you know, these podcasts are part of The Erotic Mind
series. We converse with noted erotic artists from all over the world in an effort to try to uncover something of the creative process involved in this specialized art form.

rene_face Today I have the honor of introducing you to a friend, someone I’ve known for several years. He is charming, funny and oh so talented. He is René Capone.

René is both an artist and a storyteller. In fact, I think he’s best described as an artist-storyteller. He imbues his creations, both lifelike and fantasy, with something of his own nature and life experience. He says it’s the job as an artist to explore the fundamental emotions of life; love, hate, jealousy, fear, anger and passion. And he does his job with a childlike simplicity, which is absolutely remarkable.

René’s work is a refreshing departure from the more explicit work of some of the other artists I’ve featured in this series. But as we’ll find out from René himself, eroticism has many dimensions. If art is truthful, he says, it will also be erotic.

René and I discuss:

The therapeutic nature of his art.
His graphic novel, Hedgehog Boy.
How he got his start as an artist, as an erotic artist.
The distinction, if any, between an artist and an illustrator.
The distinction, if any, between erotica and pornography.

Discover René and his memorable artwork on his site HERE.
