Campus Reform - A public university’s Union Activities Board (UAB) paid $304.69 to purchase sex toys as prizes for a “Dirty Bingo” event, an administrator told Campus Reform on Thursday.  The items purchased as awards include butt plugs, an artificial vagina, vibrators, dildos, lubricant, edible underwear, a book on sex positions, and other items, Lauryn Collier, president of North Carolina State University’s (NCSU) UAB, told Campus Reform in a statement Thursday.  An image, posted to the event’s Facebook page, also reveals artificial vaginas among the many prizes to be given away.

The “Dirty Bingo” event, slated to take place next Tuesday, aims to find “innovative” ways to discuss sexual health on the campus.  “The certified educators plan to use some of the items (those that are appropriate) to demonstrate healthy sex practices,” said Collier in the statement.  The event, which is being funded through mandatory student fees, has drawn criticism from students on campus.  “The fact that a public university is going to spend mandatory student fees on such an event is just repulsive,” said Emma Benson, an NCSU student and state co-chair of the libertarian organization Young Americans for Liberty, in a phone conversation with Campus Reform.  “There is nothing that involves reading 50 Shades of Grey or using a butt plug that promotes safe sex,” she added.

Jason Cockrell, an NCSU student who is hosting a discussion to talk about the criticism directed towards the event, said his opposition stems from the use of student fees.  “I think that it’s patently obvious that this is not an appropriate use of student fees,” said Cockrell. “It doesn’t pertain to safer sex.”

 

Brace yourselves, we got a good old fashioned butt plug and artificial vagina fight at NC State!  If I had a dollar for every time I saw a nerd and frat bro duking it out on their college’s Facebook page debating the merits of butt plugs and lubricants and edible underwear I’d be a rich man by now.

 

 

I guess I don’t really get the controversy here?  I mean we’re talking about what, 300 bucks out of the student activities budget?  Is it really worth this big a stink?  I’m sure all fellas interested in the butt plug giveaway aren’t too thrilled about the trillion dollars you stick into the football and basketball teams.   Little bit of give and take is all you can ask for.   Plus bingo is awesome.  Sure it’s better when you win money instead of an object to stretch out your asshole but whatever.   Different strokes for different folks.  I say let Dirty Bingo happen and just don’t go if you don’t want to.  Easy as that.   Smell ya later dumb prudes.
