Harvard recognizes group promoting safe kinky sex

[The Straight Story]

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Kinky sex has been admitted to Harvard.

The nation's oldest university has formally recognized Harvard College Munch, a group promoting discussions and safe practices of kinky and alternative sex. The school has no record of a similar group being recognized in its 376-year history.

The Committee on Student Life recognized Munch on Friday, making it one of 400 independent student organizations on campus. The decision occurred more than a year after members began meeting informally over meals.

"Applications for recognition are decided by a student-faculty committee following the review of a committee composed of students and administrators," Harvard spokesman Jeff Neal said in a statement Tuesday. "The college does not endorse the views or activities of any independent student organization."

1. Here in Boston a "munch" is a (usually) monthly dinner or lunch

for folks in the BDSM community. They have them all over New England.

2. Don't tell folks in meta about that, word could get on 'The List'

4. I for one don't have any problems with the BDSM community - was into that scene for awhile

When I was in my late teens.

I'd like to note BDSM is consensual and not rape. I and every other Meta poster know the difference between sex and rape.
