THE SEX FILES: The Erotic Heritage Museum exhibit explores the Sex Lives of the Rich, Famous, and Infamous
Itâs not only gambling and âWhat Happens In Vegas Stays In Vegasâ that Sin City is all about. How about education of cultural mores? A venerable museum exposing and exploring the concepts of sexual rumor mongering? We all know that in a political climate where items of clothing as much as Instagram pics can lead to a politicianâs career being shaken, stirred and halted, innuendoes, rumor and the supposed actual items of affairs can be the stuff of media blitzkriegs. This season the Erotic Heritage Museum presents a line-up of three exhibits that explore the rumor of political mishaps and sexual hypocrisy, mistresses exploited (or exploiting) and the many rabble rousers, whether the media or a candidateâs opponent, who gain access to legitimate outlets and sources simply because their claims-true or not-are being made against famous political figures.
It comes down to the power of sex, sometimes even just the âpower of the pantiesâ that sees a career fall.
The American Sex Scandals exhibit, features a collection of âclaimedâ thigh highs, floggers, hand cuffs, a leather vest and corsets from Bill Clintonâs mistress Gennifer Flowers (was ol Slick Willy into kink?), the Sex In The Third Reich exhibit, boasts as much WWII paraphernalia as authentic Eva Braun lingerie, and Sex and the Aristocracy, features both a glittery dress and a bathing suit and other underthings worn by Prince Harryâs supposed mistress Carrie Royale. The museum explores how the media exploits men of high influence and how sometimes those men can lead a veritable country astray with their hypocrisies.
Among the questions EHMâs President/Director Dr. Victoria Hartmann, PH.D./M.P.H. hopes these three new exhibits answer is: âWho is the one with the power in a relationshipâŠthe person in a position of authority or the person who holds their secrets?â
As I have reported previously (see here) The Erotic Heritage Museum is as much known for its 2-floors of galleries, rotating exposes, performances and readings as it is for consistent education through their programs and exhibits.
Dr. Hartmann explains âat the Erotic Heritage Museum, we examine unique intimate relationships, and how they affect not only the individuals, but society at large. Itâs our job at the EHM to disassemble the nature of these intimate couplings and dig beyond the âhe said, she saidâ paradigm which exists across the spectrum of twosomes, threesomes and moresomes. One thing is for sure: the deeper we look, the more we find.â
As always, there is lots to find at The Erotic Heritage Museum with their American Sex Scandals, Sex In The Third Reich and Sex and the Aristocracy exhibits, as well as everything else in the museum this season.
