One global company states on its home page that ?Indigenous and proven career management tools coupled with a comprehensive series of integrated initiatives have been evolved, to ensure that employees continue to sustain a high performance culture, while recruitment and selection is based on necessary competencies.?
That is ?just gobbledygook,? Mr. Flanders said. ?The words are not understandable by humans.?

I wrote a proposal for a large project today. It was littered with this
type of writing. I even used the word l everage. By the third time I typed
it, I barely cringed. They eat it up. I would like to know why the pomos
get such a hard time when you can type all kinds of twaddle and a
businessman will cream his shorts over it. If I get better at the twaddle,
I'm going to start sending them spare pairs of shorts or a link to the
Freeballers Association of America. Oh. Huh. If I encourage thelatter, I
guess I'll have to send them a new pair of slacks.

If any one of y'all still are interested in submitting articles for the first Carnival of Sex Radicals and Sex-Positive Feminists (and those who love/want to fuck them..lol), the deadline for submissions remains October 18th; and the date of entry remains October 20th.

I'm sure that the prevailing controversies here on this list of late will be more than enough fuel for discussion...but in case they may not; here are some preliminary subjects for the carnival:

– What exactly constitutes “sex-positive” for you??

–How did “sex-positive” theory evolve out of the “sex wars”??

–What relationship does queer theory have to sex-pos radicalism??

–Why is the Left so schzophenic towards sex-positive radicalism??

–What is the relationship between feminism and sex-positive radicalism, and can there ever be a synthesis, or even a reconciliation??

–How do the varying and diverse communities of sexual practice covalesce into a sex-radical theory and practice??

– (The money question for moi) How in the hell can we successfully incorporate a progressive sexual morality and sex-positive theory and practice into a vibrant and successful progressive political movement??

– Define the different variants of sex radicalism (socialist, feminist, liberal, libertarian, etc.)

– How does race play into sex-pos activism and practice??

– What relationship does explicit sexual media and expression (i.e., pornography and erotica) have in a sex-positive practice…and can mainstream (”male-centered”) porn ever be incorporated into a progressive theory and praxis??

–  What role should progressive men play within the broader role of “sex positive feminism”?? And what about women of color??

-- Finally, how should a sex-positive theory and practice encounter and coexist with more conservative sexual moralities and practices (such as asexuality or consensual abstinence or monogamy...or the acceptance of more conservative sexual politics??

Please feel free to add your own selection of topics to this list.

Send any potential submissions to me either through my email address anthonyk_6319 at charter dot net; or by entering a response to my SmackDog Chronicles blog entry here.
 
If submission is inevitiable, then why not lie back and.....well, submit??


Anthony
