BACKGROUND Stand Up Smut began in a tiny kava bar called Nalu in Portland Oregon in the spring of 2018. Finally - a place to share adult material that might not be appropriate for other venues! The invitation was for material of a sexual nature, an erotic flavor. That first month a crowd of 40-50 strangers squished into a space that comfortably seats a dozen, and by the end of the night, it had become a tradition. The shares were personal, hilarious, heart breaking, and sometimes super hot. (Kava is a beverage made from a root, that tastes like mud but settles the nervous system, and some say is an aphrodisiac). The event evolved over the past two years - we had musicians, and actors - scenes even! We added audience participation in the form of haikus. Every time we gathered was an incredible, amazing journey of intimacy.

Stand Up Smut is now online, and we have learned to build intimacy on zoom. We’ve discovered all sorts of new possibilities! We’ve had visitors from India, New Zealand, Canada, England - it’s been delightful to meet sex-positive comrades from all over the world. We have also started featuring visual artists who shared their art via screen share, which added a new kind of richness to the stew.

The invitation has always to show up with love and respect for one another as sovereign sexual beings, and that has continued even as we have gone digital.
