So, Saturday night November 18 will be the next live show. We’re all very excited here at Block Studios. A live show! Appropriately enough, it will be the Saturday before Thanksgiving, and we will “Give Thanks for Life, Give Thanks for Pleasure Sex!” Some of my dear friends and delightful acquaintances have already confirmed that they will be here including the amazing Rainforest Princess Annie Body (star of Squirt Salon), the outrageous Mistress Genevieve (featured on Blonde Island) and adorable Amber (Queen Esther on Purim), as well as the gorgeous Chicago Hottie Shay Lynn (star of Eros Day Circus of Sex) and her sultry girlfriend Brea Taylor, the lovely Tai Ellis and members of the Porn Klown Posse. It will be an ultra-fun night. So make your reservations now; become a Block Studios Member.

We’re also gearing up to do a series of Libertine Nights at the Speakeasy, also called Pleasure Sex Salons. Just in case you don’t know, a salon is not a place to get your hair done, nor is it just an online magazine for disaffected liberals. A salon is a gathering of people that is a cross between a show, a seminar, a discussion group and a party. So, though we don’t have the dates yet, we’re planning three salons, four if you count Eros Day. If you’re interested in attending any of them (or watching them online), please email us at salon@blockbooks.com.

So here they are, in no particular order:

So, what is a Block Studios Member? Funny you should ask. Here’s are some Frequently Asked Questions:

How Can I Attend Shows and Other Events at Block Studios?
You must be a card-carrying Block Studios Member to attend a live taping of The Dr. Susan Block Show or any of our other events such as Eros Day, Squirt Salons, Foot Fetish Salons, Pleasure Sex Seminars and Libertine Nights.

How Much Is Membership?
Our membership dues are currently very reasonable. The cost is $25 per couple and $35 for single males. Payable every six months. Membership for single ladies is usually free. Of course, if you’re not economically disadvantaged, you’re more than welcome to support the studios and make a donation.

Why Do Single Women Get Free Memberships?
Because they are usually sexy and often economically disadvantaged. If you want to hang out with a bunch of guys, join the infantry; they’ll even pay you.

What Does Block Studios Membership Get Me?
First, it gives you access to our uniquely exciting shows and other events. Next, it gets you a bunch of new friends, possible lovers, mentors, stimulating partners and, in some cases, life-time soulmates. You’ll encounter all kinds of “sexperts,” from professors to porn stars, local and international celebrities, dommes and subs, artists and nurses, film directors and the girls and guys-next-door. For many members, it’s also a way to make new business contacts, get parts in movies or new jobs. Anything can happen in our beautiful, sensual, magical studios where we practice “ethical hedonism” and the Bonobo Way, as we explore and investigate the delicious pleasures and fascinating complications of human sexuality, love, art and the rest of life.

What Else Does My Membership Get Me?
Your membership also gets you discounts on lots of great stuff in Shopping Heaven (especially important as the holidays approach).
It also gets you invitations to private dinners and other events we hold here at the studios.
If you are a telephone therapy client, you’ll get discounts on all your calls and consultations. That can add up to hundreds of dollars in savings per year.

What About My Friends?
As a Block Studios Member, you can invite friends, lovers or business associates to accompany you to shows ~ such as the upcoming November 18th show ~ and other events, and you’ll have the coolest place in town to hang out.

What We’re Not…
We’re not a swing club, bar or bordello. Sometimes we call Block Studios “Dr. Suzy’s Speakeasy,” but unlike the speakeasies of old, we don’t do anything illegal. As this is not a club or bar, we do not sell liquor. Therefore, whenever you come to an event, you should bring something to drink that you can share with other people. It needn’t be alcoholic. We provide the yummy hors d’oeuvres, aphrodisiacs, condoms, free art, nifty novelties and the romantic erotic ambiance.

So Who Are We Actually?
We are a group of friends, lovers and business associates who like to explore sexuality. Some of us work in the sex field as therapists, educators, publishers, performers, models, dancers, singers, producers, writers, artists, journalists, fashion designers, photographers and filmmakers. Others are lawyers, doctors, businesspeople, politicians, business CEOs, homemakers, bankers, fire fighters or schoolteachers who have an interest in exploring or learning more about sex, love and pleasure, in a safe place outside their professional worlds and even their regular social lives. Block Studios is always respectful of the privacy of our members. We support you, whether you wish to promote yourself or remain very discreet or even completely anonymous.
Block Studios is privately funded by the Dr. Susan Block Institute for the Erotic Arts & Sciences. Our work and activities are made possible through loans and grants from my private sex therapy practice, television sales, product sales, Internet properties and membership dues. A portion of our revenues and our time goes to help save the highly endangered “Make Love, Not War” bonobo chimpanzees and other pet projects of ours, including the Anti-War Movement and Saving Our Mother the Earth.

So…become a Block Studios Member today ~ before the price goes up! ~ enjoy the Pagan Holiday Party Season with us, or join BACKSTAGE, but whatever you do, don’t forget to VOTE OUT THE WARMONGERS! The next dead child could be yours.
