LAS VEGAS — Dr. Susan M. Block will give a talk, “The Bonobo Way of Peace through Pleasure,” on Saturday, Nov. 18, at 2 p.m. in conjunction with the “Evolution of Human Sexuality” exhibit at the Erotic Heritage Museum in Las Vegas.
“In a world beset by mass murder — from Las Vegas to Niger — plus unprecedented environmental destruction and confusing, sometimes disturbing sexual relationships, 'the Bonobo Way' presents an alternative great ape paradigm for human sexuality, war, peace, ecology and community, inspired by a role model who isn't even human — our closest genetic cousin, bonobo,” Block said.
Block last visited the Erotic Heritage Museum five years ago when she was honored with a doctorate of the arts from the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, and she reports she is very much looking forward to returning to this exceptional erotic art museum.
“I’m excited to share a very timely message of hope that just happens to be a lot of fun too,” she added.
Block said her talk will touch on bonobo and human sexuality, violence, war, peace, Eros vs. Thanatos, the balance of gender power, as well as building loving relationships and inclusive, “bonoboësque communities.”
