...Overall, however, the album fails to keep the listener focused. It's good background music for a Sunday morning cup of coffee with a friend, but, with a few exceptions, Prize is not an album you can just sit down and enjoy...
...great to want to develop profound affective bonds, monogamous relationships, and everything else that Cliff Davidson and Alex Boni-Saenz claim we are trivializing. It's also great to just want to "Enjoy cock," "Have a golden shower today," "Cuff a friend" or yes (horror of horrors) even "Taste Menses." Why are these sexual behaviors sensationalistic, trivializing and fundamentally indecent? As a co-chair committed to recuperating pathologized sexualities and gender identities, I am not willing to re-closet those of us who fall outside monogamy. Public visibility is a small, initial step toward avowing these privately popular but publicly...
Admittedly, it would be unfair to place all the blame on Adams. This past summer, Eliot and Kirkland House both revamped their kitchens. But only Eliot or Kirkland residents, and their one privileged friend per meal, are permitted to enjoy this luxury.

We are in the midst of a war, where our only refuge--or guaranteed meal, for that matter--lies in our home base or the gracious pardon of a member...

They may not yet be ready to speak, yet we attempt to lure them out of the closet with posters that portray lesbian sex and read: "We don't enjoy cock at all." And then, to make matters worse, we claim to be speaking for them, to be representing those who cannot represent themselves. Such paternalism is, again, harmful; speaking for closeted students who are not yet prepared to speak is just as bad as stifling their speech in the first place...
