Iraq War veteran David Rodriguez steps into a softly lit classroom at the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco, crosses his legs and sits on a pillow in front of an altar decorated with a rope, a model of a penis and a statue of a Hindu god.
Rodriguez, a retired Navy lieutenant commander who led an engineering battalion that dismantled roadside bombs, is here for a class on sexual bodywork. When instruction begins, he will join his classmates in practicing different forms of masturbation.
They do vulva massage and penis massage and anal massage, said instructor Ariadne H. Luya, who holds a Ph.D. from the institute, an unaccredited graduate school founded in 1976 by an iconoclastic Methodist minister who amassed a large collection of erotic art and pornographic films, including child pornography, that is kept at the school.
We want to get people out of their ruts. Have you been masturbating the same way for 20 years? she asked rhetorically. Hows that going for you? Would you like to try something new?
Rodriguez is funding his studies with the GI Bill, which means taxpayers are covering his tuition to pursue a doctorate in human sexuality more than $20,000 over the past two years.
But in the absence of strong government oversight, Reveal has found a gold rush of 2,000 schools cashing in on the exemption. The list includes schools set up to make a profit by teaching blackjack, scuba diving, dog grooming, taxidermy and yoga. Many are owned by individuals whove gone bankrupt or failed to pay their taxes. A handful are owned by convicted felons

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
That happened a long time ago.
No wonder the VA is going down the tubes. Sick-O.
San Fransicko, run by queers, coprophiliacs, and lesbians.
“Have you been masturbating the same way for 20 years?
Damn. Talk about lasting more than 3 hours...
Mastrubation classes. To prepare students for what kind of jobs? Political office? ( meanwhile, China trains engineers and scientists )
Best reply thread over.
I guess i am self taught
“Have you been masturbating the same way for 20 years? she asked rhetorically. Hows that going for you?”
Can’t complain....
San Francisco needs to be hit with a 10.0 or 11.0
A school to learn how to jack off?
Don’t we have enough law schools already?
Funding for adequate and timely healthcare must be sacrificed so that these important programs are available.
#8: I think you’ve hit on something re “Masturbation classes.. to prepare students for what kinds of jobs? “POLITICAL OFFICE”?
Why not. Congress if full of pricks and assholes. Would seem to be the right preparation for being there.
Talking about “preparation”, I think congressional classes in how to use “Preparation H” would also be appropriate.
[You can fill in the rest of my thoughts on this]
If you’ve been doing it for 20 years you’re definitely doing it wrong
Law school for wankers?
Sounds redundant.
“”a retired Navy lieutenant commander””
What next? Not a shred of shame? Of the mentality that says if the government is going to offer it, I’m going to take advantage of it? Disgusting!
I got to hand it to them
It's extraordinarily rare to find a Priority I or II Vet with a substantial complaint.
But if you're priority VI, it's best you get your care somewhere else.
Personally, I have zero complaints. None.
Timely, efficient, courteous and effective.
But I see some guys with legit complaints every time I go there.
They are my PREFERRED PROVIDER and I have alternate insurance.
Just sayin'.
