Such sex and partiesPower playDespite its successful use, Ida C. Benedetto, an experienced designer says, is not a "well-designed" sex party.

According to Mr. Benedetto, who was comparing sex, party, trip of wilderness, funeral and so on to explore 'social experience to change human beings', such experiential designs are "to risk themselves to risk" It is important that the group can control himself ". Whether you are a sex or a party or a funeral of your grandfather, you say that there is "treasure", "encouragement" and "mercilessness" in the process of excellent experiences.

A well-designed sex / party is composed considering "participant's sexual hope" and "how you want to communicate with others". Such parties are for sexually mature participantsGame changerIf you participate in a badly designed sex party, people feel "forced" or you will regret badly the next day you participate. And while having a desire to "connect with others" at a sex / party with a good design, it is said that it is important to face social risks such as disappointment and rejection.

As "investors and entrepreneurs" socially and monotonically powerful people "are dreams of solitary teenagers, but because they actually have the power of social elegance and interpersonal skills It can not be ignored to ignore. A well-designed sex / party, if it is originally a system that does not promote abuse of power, but supports interpersonal. By the rules stipulated, participants will be able to listen to and honor the people around them while controlling their wishes. If my behavior goes beyond a line, it is not mocked from the surroundings, but it is corrected with a respectful and cooperative action.

Women who originally participated in the party should be able to ask how the party is functioning and where they can exit and respect men with respect in words. However, in the Silicon Valley party, it is a big problem to omit the process by using drag. Although the sex part itself is not to be denied, Benedetto stated that it is never permitted for people working in Silicon Valley to design technologies that affect society to do this It is.
