Bonoboville featured in “Your Guide to Erotic LA” by Bennett Cordon | Citizine
“Navigating the erotic playground of LA can be daunting. Not all avenues of exploration are created equal. Regardless, from strip clubs to swinger parties and old-fashioned one night stands, Los Angeles knows how to play. But what you really need is someone to show you around. Why? If you don’t know how to handle the fire, you might wake up burning … and scratching.
Enter Dr. Suzy and Bonoboville, the first place you should start when it comes to exploring sex and sex ed in LA.

Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman interviews Dr. Susan Block | The Psychology Podcast
“We explore how pleasure can be a guiding principle in the good life, when it is tempered with kindness and a sense of meaning. We discuss the methods and positive outcomes of erotic theater therapy. We cover different cultural perspectives on sex, sexual identity, taboos and repression. We take a deep look into the culture of the Bonobo great ape, who is one of our closest relatives in the animal kingdom, to see how they might teach us about forming a more peaceful society – they have never been seen killing each other in the wild or in captivity!”Dr. Susan Block on Releasing Your Inner Bonobo interview

Sylvia Storm Reviews The Bonobo Way: The Evolution of Peace Through Pleasure, Part 2 | E-Read Erotica Reviews
Let’s finish this review with some of the most powerful ecological parts of this book, since they cover some of the most urgent and pressing needs right now. You wonder about the warnings 20 years ago about overpopulation, the wars we will have over dwindling resources, and how our planet is becoming an ever more crowded pace at a faster and faster rate. You see the refugees streaming over borders in massive crowds, wars and provocative moves to claim resources, the over-fishing of our oceans, and you take a moment to wonder if this is the future we were warned about.

Sylvia Storm Reviews The Bonobo Way: The Evolution of Peace Through Pleasure, Part 1 | E-Read Erotica Reviews
“Seriously, this is one of the most important books on conservation and sexuality I have ever read.
It is also sobering and seriously depressing.
I initially walked away feeling biology and tribalism has doomed our race.
I will leave this thought here for a while, so let’s move on to a quote from the esteemed text of Dr. Susan Block:
‘One of the great erotic philosophers of the mid-20th century…'”The Bonobo Way: The Evolution of Peace Through Pleasure, Part 1

“Let’s Talk: How to Spice up Foreplay for a Better Sex Life” with Dr. Susan Block by TV Balaji | The Indian Express
Blame it on lack of time or imagination, many couples forego foreplay entirely or fast forward to intercourse, turning it into a vanilla act. “The word ‘foreplay’ sounds like something subordinate, like an appetizer with intercourse as the main course. It’s fine to skip the appetizer when it comes to food but skipping foreplay is rarely a good idea,” says Dr Susan Block – better known as Dr Suzy – a sex therapist and and the author of The Ten Commandments of Pleasure.

Bonoboville Testimonials: “Two Cars and a House. How I Did It” by Luzer Twersky
“As very few of you know I’ve spent the past year and a half or so living in this RV rent free. Because of that, I was able to travel to film festivals, pursue my dreams, and was generally able to enjoy a fairly worry-free life.
What some of you don’t know is that this RV belongs to and was on the campus of Bonoboville, a community founded by the amazing forces of Dr. Susan M Block and her husband Prince Maximillian Lobkowicz.
I need to say this publicly, if it wasn’t for their generosity I would never have been able to do what I did in the past year and a half. You all saw all my travels and fun stuff and probably wondered how I can afford it. Well now you know it’s because food and housing was provided to me by the wonderful sexy souls of Bonoboville. It’s because of them that I was able to shoot
@transparentamazon without having to worry about taking a week off and losing my job amongst many other fun stuff. It is thanks to them that I was able to go to Norway and become part of the first ex-Hasidic 60s-inspired rock band with HP Gundersen (and we even performed on the Dr. Susan Block show where HP got a striptease during his guitar solo….”☛ READ MORE ☚

“It’s been a joy to convene the first symposium about #Ecosexuality hosted in an academic institution which is located in the region I’ve elected as my third Matria, the Caribbean.
Day One was Thursday, January 28, and we were in the Teatro Figueroa Chapel, a beautiful amphitheater at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez, whose air conditioning system needs urgent refurbishing for calibration and sustainability….”Practices of Ecosexuality: First Academic Symposium Speaks – From Day One in the Caribbean

Sex Ape by Lisa Barrow | Alibi
“Once upon a time, the story goes, the Congo River changed its course, dividing a group of great apes in two. (They were already split off from the apes who would evolve into humans.) Isolated on the Congo’s north side, one group evolved into our famous cousins the chimpanzees. South of the river, subject to a different set of environmental pressures, another group became the bonobos…”

Queefing: How to Get Down With Sexual Embarrassment by Carrie Weisman with Sex Therapist Dr. Susan Block | Alternet
“The term queefing refers to the expulsion of trapped air from the vagina thatoccurs during sex—and unfortunately, it sounds an awful lot like farting.
But as Dr. Susan Block reminds us, “Queefing is very often a sign that the sex you’re having is really hot.”

About Dr. Susan Block
Susan M. Block, Ph.D., a.k.a. “Dr. Suzy,” world-renowned sexologist and leading champion of sex education, erotic freedom and the highly endangered bonobo apes, is perhaps best-known for her groundbreaking specials on HBO. Host of the famous—and slightly infamous—Dr. Susan Block Show, broadcasting on radio, cable TV and the Internet for over 30 years, Dr. Block is a magna cum laude graduate of Yale University with a Ph.D. in sexology from the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, and a co-founder of Sex Week at Yale, inspiring similar college-student-based sex education conferences around the world. A best-selling, award-winning author, Dr. Block’s latest book, The Bonobo Way: The Evolution of Peace through Pleasure, has been acclaimed for its paradigm-shifting vision, humor and sound advice by journalists, sexperts, statesmen, primatologists and porn stars.
Director of the Dr. Susan Block Institute for the Erotic Arts & Sciences, she is a top contributor to the Wiley-Blackwell International Encyclopedia of Human Sexuality, authoring “extended explorations” on “Sexual Fetishes,” “Phone Sex” and “Striptease,” as well as definitive articles on “Spanking” and “Cuckolding.” Recently, she wrote the foreword to the award-winning Ecosexuality collection, and her writings on sex, politics and culture have been published in a variety of publications from Counterpunch to Cosmo to her own Journal. But she’ll never quit her “day job” as a therapist in private practice, helping thousands of individuals, couples and groups, from California to Saudi Arabia, to explore, understand, discipline, enhance, share and enjoy their sexuality.
Married for over 23 years to Pr. Maximillian R. Lobkowicz, pioneering publisher of the first “reader-written” media such as the LA Star, Love, Hate, Finger, The Brentwood Bla Bla and Beverly Hills, the Magazine, the two founded and direct Bonoboville, both a new social-media and a real “socialist/capitalist,” pro-sex community in Los Angeles, known for producing the first reality-based sexuality programs, convivial “Speakeasies,” bonoboësque gatherings, erotic art exhibitions, bacchanalian soirées, life-changing lectures, sex-educational seminars, and priceless moments of communal ecstasy, with a portion of all proceeds going to help save the highly endangered real bonobos in the wild.
