Hi NOMAS,

Please come to discuss this incredible book, "Yes Means Yes," that compiles essays on a gender-equitable and violence-free view on sex! I personally would love to hear what the members of NOMAS have to contribute to this fascinating discussion.

WHEN: Thursday, January 29 @ 6PM

WHERE: Central Square YMCA, 820 Mass. Ave. in Cambridge

After-party: OM in Harvard Square at 92 Winthrop, 8PM

WHAT: Join Jaclyn Friedman from the Center for New Words, Jessica Valenti from Feministing.com, Kate Harding and Toni Amato as they launch their new book, "Yes Means Yes"!

In this groundbreaking new look at rape, the way we view rape in our culture is finally dismantled and replaced with a genuine understanding and respect for female sexual pleasure. Feminist, political, and activist writers alike will present their ideas for a paradigm shift from the "No Means No" model—an approach that while necessary for where we were in 1974, needs an overhaul today. With commentary on public sex education, pornography, and mass media, Yes Means Yes is a powerful and revolutionary anthology.
