The
mission of the Museum of Sex is to preserve and present the history,
evolution, and cultural significance of human sexuality.
Three Main Sections
There are Three Main
Sections in the museum, plus a Gift Store.
The First Section features
the History of Nudity and Art. Pictures, posters and
historical
content line the walls (photo below).
Note: Changing Exhibit

The Second Section (on
the 2nd floor) is a multi-media area featuring old "graphic" black-and-white
film clips projected onto giant blocks on the floor of a
darkened room (photo below).

Witness the underground evolution of the
sex-film industry as the Museum of Sex recaptures the clandestine
celluloid of the twentieth century.
Note:
Changing Exhibit
The
Third Section features the museum's "Permanent Collection."
It covers many aspects of human sexuality,
but the vast majority of items reflect America's changing attitudes
about sex and sexuality over the last 250 years.
The collection features Sex
Education, Sex in Advertising and American Technology, Photography,
Books, Sex Exhibits, and Sexual Paraphernalia.  She
looks real, but she's NOT! These are several of the exhibits featured
in the Museum's Permanent Collection.
