Privacy and Content
CONTENT
As a part of our mission to disseminate accurate, sex-positive information to students, KISISS has compiled the information on this site. You may find some racy content in the form of the explicit discussion of sexual issues including, but not limited to, sexual intercourse, masturbation, BDSM, and transgenderism. We work from a philosophy of pan-sexual, universal acceptance and unconditional respect for humans as sexual creatures. We believe that explicit, honest, respectful conversation about sexuality is not only healthy and educational, but also a natural aspect of being a person.
