The result, at least according to the video on their website, was somewhere between Eyes Wide Shut and a Victoria’s Secret commercial. Skirt Club Founder Genevieve LeJeune had been to such parties, too, and was inspired to create a sex party where women, in particular, could focus on their sexuality “away from the prying eyes of men.”įlashback: Tina Turner Covers Dolly Parton, Kris Kristofferson on Debut Solo Album I’d never heard of Skirt Club, or a bisexual women’s-only sex party, though I’d certainly been to a number of “play parties,” where people across the gender spectrum did everything from cuddling to coitus. I received the invitation to Skirt Club’s San Francisco launch party on a cold Saturday in January. It’s lesbianism: our little secret, for women whose bi-curiosity has become too overwhelming to ignore. It’s “lesbianism” that lesbians will recognize, but have a hard time endorsing without some irony. This is the kind of awkward, lighthearted, lesbianism many women either had – or wished they’d had – in college. This is Katy Perry singing “I kissed a girl and I liked it.” This is an Agent Provocateur window display.
The invitation to Skirt Club, a women-only, bisexual and bi-curious sex party, tells you one thing, loud and clear: This may be a girls-only orgy, but it’s not lesbianism as you know it.
