CatalystCon East Reveals Speaker Schedule, Keynote Address

WASHINGTON  CatalystCon reveals its schedule for more than 70 speakers participating in CatalystCon East, including the Keynote Address.

CatalystCon East will take place March 15-17 in D.C.-adjacent Arlington, Va.

"I was thrilled by how well we did with CalaystCon West in Long Beach," CatalystCon organizer Dee Dennis said. "The conference was filled with people from every area of the sex education community. The seminars and panels were a great opportunity for everyone to exchange ideas and information. We are bringing that phenomenon to the East Coast and are committed to keeping the energy flowing to promote positive change, from the Keynote Address throughout the convention."

Kicking off CatalystCon at 8:30 p.m. on Friday, March 15, is the Keynote Address.

Tristan Taormino will moderate the discussion titled, “Sparking Communication in Sexuality, Activism, and Acceptance,” and the panel will include Ducky Dolittle, Dr. Hernando Chavez, jessica drake, and Mireille Miller-Young.

The panels and workshops planned for CatalystCon East include a look at Los Angeles' controversial Measure B, which mandated the use of condoms in adult video production; a discussion of Toxic Toys; a seminar about sexuality for senior citizens; a discussion of California's Proposition 35, which stigmatizes sex workers as "sex offenders" as part of the fight against human trafficking; and a seminar to help educators effectively teach sexual topics.

The list of more than 70 speakers includes Swedish sexuality experts Suzann Larsdotter and Malinda Flodman, who will present a history of sex education in Sweden and discuss "the development of sex education for Swedish queer women"; sex educators Ducky Doolittle, jessica drake, Joan Price, and Reid Mihalko; academics Charlie Glickman, Ph. D. and Constance Penley, Ph.D.; authors Tristan Taormino and Rachel Kramer Bussel; plus activists, academics, and other experts on sexuality.
