201--Invitations
Let's hear em, gang. You wrote letters to a parent to invite them to parents' weekend and tell them this school is peachy-keen. I know some of you did them for both your parents. I'm glad you had some fun with the idea of different audience. Ok, get up here. Impress me.

301--Family Unit--SEX

All right gang. I have faith this isn't going to turn into a giggle fest, I expect a certain level of maturity. I want to talk about choosing family, especially those you find worthy of a particular lavel of intimacy, such as sharing your self. How do you communicate that you want to go to bed with them? How does a level of personal intimacy related to non-sexual activity determine the reactions of an intimate sexual encounter?

Finally, what are the repercussions of sexual intimacy and poor communication, especially for you at this age. Are you ready for the creation of a family of your own? [Specifically does NOT look at Sydney as she asks the questions]

Ok, gang...hit me.


((interaction will be really sporadic, sorry. Probably not so much with the q&a today, but feel free to go wild. And talk to each other, by all means!))

Tell me your thoughts on sex without intimacy, Chiana. Some cultures frown upon sex outside of marriage...others see it as strictly biological. Others still find sex without consequences damning and feel you should at least experience emotional turmoil. How is it where you're from/ [She is genuinely curious. Chiana always has the most interesting perspective]

Well, I ::laughs:: I gotta say first that I might be, uh, a little bit of an exception, or they wouldn't call me a tralk back there. But, yeah, this...this is definitely a repressed culture when it comes to sex. We still have marriage or beings that mate for life and all that, but, uh, I guess there's... there's less of an expectation of that I guess. Alot of the times sex is...sex is more recreation then procreation. And as for...for only havin' it when your married? ::shrugs:: As long as it's not with somebody else's mate, I've found that nobody much cares when you have it.

::frowns:: I wouldn't say it's without consequences though. I mean, we don't have much in the way of disease, so we don't havta worry about, uh, whatcha call it, STDs? Unless your government happens to infect you with 'em without you knowing. But there's still the chance of gettin' pregnant when you don't want it, if you're compatible, or, say, hurtin' your fiance by frelling somebody else. And while most species don't really care if you frell somebody outside your species? Some really really hate it. Like, the...the male I used to be with. He married and had a kid with this female of a different species, and her brother hated it so much that he... that he killed her and framed him for her murder.
