Sex Culture in the City Tour is for mature people of almost all ages, nationalities and lifestyles who would enjoy learning about San Francisco's sexual history and culture, and seeing the exciting city where so many boundaries have been stretched and broken. From the sailors and gold-digging Forty-niner miners that founded the city in 1849 and the sex workers and madams digging that gold out of their pockets, to the recent same-sex marriages at City Hall that made news around the world, this tour will touch them all - but only after asking permission first!
We travel through time and the neighborhoods of San Francisco while you hear stories of the first few decades of gold fever, wild days and wilder nights on the "Barbary Coast" (named after the home of hard-living pirates half a world away), in Chinatown, and in the corrupt mayor's office. Then we'll jump ahead about 50 years to the counter cultural revolutions of the Beatniks, Hippies, meditators, commune-ists, and other participants in the flower-power, free-love, and human potential movements who populated San Francisco in the 1950's through the 60's, 70's and - well - until today, really. You'll visit the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood and Golden Gate Park where the hippies congregated and started communes and group "marriages". And we'll make several stops along the way to break things up - an antique vibrator museum and store and the night club strip where exotic dancing started its return to the public stages after a long dormancy. And we don't leave out our alternative lifestyle-living brethren and sisteren. We'll take a drive through the Castro neighborhood where the Gay-rights movement took hold in the seventies and transformed American politics, or at least is attempting to! We'll tell you about the Folsom Street Festival and the Exotic Erotic Ball, huge parties celebrating the wilder side of the sexual spectrum.
Some people (we'll call prudes) believe sex is only for making babies. This tour is not for everyone, especially them. But if you have an open mind and can talk about sex without thinking dark thoughts or punishing yourself, then you should have a good time learning about the sexy San Francisco you've heard so much about. Heck, even if you want to punish yourself, we won't judge you as long as you keep it UN-real - 'cause it's all about playing and acting, right? This tour takes an attitude of irreverent respect toward the subject matter, celebrating humanity's natural procreative impulses creatively, and respectful of diversity in orientation and lifestyle.
A note to you Bay Area residents: When your friends from somewhere else come into town, do they not ask a bunch of breathless questions about San Francisco that may be beyond your knowledge base or even embarrassing? What better way to keep them entertained and get yourself a little education about the other side of the spectrum, eh? And do I need to mention the potential for bachelorette parties?
