Female ejaculation

This article is missing a very significant part of Queen's sexological output, namely her instructional video on female ejaculation. It does exist (I've seen it myself, as a matter of fact). I do not have exact details on it, but I know that GoodVibrations.com, if it does not presently stock it, does know about it (I rented it from their San Francisco storefront); if you call and ask them, they can probably provide the details. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 09:02, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Queen of Heaven

The article is also missing info, even mention, of something Queen is also famous for: her "Queen of Heaven" sex parties. These too also exist; I and a ladyfriend of mine were invited to one, by her and her partner, after meeting at an event in San Francisco. (We did not attend; I know others who have, though.) I don't think they are any form of secret, so they should probably be researched and added to the article. Frankly, they are pretty legendary, and have inspired many others to hold similar private and semi-private events. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 09:05, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Weasel words

This article includes weasel words, such as the phrase "...is perhaps best known for..." These should really be re-written with specific sources quoted as saying this is what she is best known for. Johntex\talk 04:51, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Missing information

The article fails to mention that Queen is a man-hating lesbian who's idea of "sex-positive feminist" activities includes denigrating and humiliating men, such as anally raping them with a plastic dildo.

The article does, in some sense, make mention of these aspects of her work and career, albeit not so perjoratively. i might suggest, if you are genuinely interested in making malekind look better in general, you may want to sign your comments when you decide to use a talk page as a soapbox, instead of just making your vindictive contribution from an anonymous IP like a gutless wiener. --PopeFauveXXIII 00:27, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
P.S. Queen is not a lesbian but a bisexual and the man she is supposedly humiliating in the Bend Over Boyfriend is, in fact, her partner of many years (I think 30+). Benjiboi 14:41, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

The following resume-like material might be useful but needs to conform to the Manual of Style or otherwise be converted into prose as appropriate. -- Banjeboi 06:58, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Absexual

I have recently created an article for this word because Carol Queen was referenced as volunteering it for the DSM-V in the midst of commenting on changes that should occur to various sexual references in the upcoming edition. A link to this is in the article. I am wondering if she coined this originally, or if she heard it from the Betty Dodson interview, or if possible they both got it from a common source or a common slang term in general. It's not something I've encountered but it might exist as popular slang circulated in certain regions so I want to find out. Tyciol (talk) 03:59, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Abusive blanket-deletion by Hullaballoo Wolfowitz

One Hullaballoo Wolfowitz, a person with a reputation for conduction blanket-deletions of contributions without prior discussion, has now been blanket-deleting my contributions to this entry. He did not issue a discussion on this talk-page explaining the reason behind his blanket-deletions of my contributions, but lazily and carelessly tagged them "vandalism". Deleting the "Criticism" contribution and tagging it as supposed "vandalism", thus denying the fact that Queen has some very vocal critics, makes this entry less neutral, not more. Queen is a very sharp and blunt critic herself and her writing, in which she openly attacks anyone who doesn't agree with her, has earned her several critics of her own, whether you and her like it or not. I am re-adding the deleted contributions, and will consider requesting an intervention from the admins if HW attempts to redelete my contributions. I will also consider blanket-deleting all my contributions so far myself, so as to leave this entry in the exact same mess I found it when I first started working on it. Let Hullaballoo Wolfowitz clean the whole thing up all by himself then. 145.18.242.63 (talk) 14:08, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Stop lying. Your edits were flagged by an automated review system for "possible BLP issue or vandalism." I reviewed the edits, found the automated tagging reliable in this case, and removed them with an edit summary referring to WP:COATRACK and WP:BLP. Rather than paying attention to the content problems, which were originally identified by the "abuse filter" process, you chose to reinstate them while posting various personal attacks on me. You're responsible for your own edits, your IP addresses indicate no editing outside of this article, and no edits before yesterday -- but you show an experienced knowledge of Wikipedia processes, indicating that you're a sockpuppet. If you're not going to edit responsibly and in accordance with Wikipedia policies and guidelines, it should be no surprise that your edits are removed. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk)
Hullaballoo Wolfowitz, I have noticed you are continuing your abusive disruptive editing for this entry. You are continuing to blanket-delete contributions without prior or after-the-fact discussion about your motivations. You refuse to explain how deleting the entire contribution titled "Criticism" aids the neutrality of the entry. I am now going to restore the contributions you have again abusively deleted, and am requesting an immediate intervention against you from the admins. Your reputation as an abusive disruptive editor is a matter of public record that anyone who has read your personal talk-page can ascertain for themselves. If you think those editors "hounded" you before, you ain't seen nothing yet.145.18.242.63 (talk) 16:07, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
To 145, first and foremost: because someone removed your edits does not mean that they are against you or that they are engaging in "disruptive behavior." I can attest to the fact that your edits did trigger an automatic edit filter tag, that may violate BLP. And in layman's terms, this means that what you have contributed will most likely need to be re-written as per WP:BLP policy. We welcome any and all positive contributions but baseless attacks here are unacceptable. A8UDI 17:18, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Responding to A8, "all positive contributions but baseless attacks here are unacceptable", denying the fact that a person has critics and sabotaging the entire criticism section is not "positive", it is negative because it makes entries less neutral by suggesting that the subject has received nothing but praise. I am willing to discuss specific critics, but HW went ahead and blanket-deleted the entire criticism section. Would you or he care to explain how a respected feminist doctor at the University of Melbourne criticizing Queen in an article published in an academic resource is "baseless"? Cleary HW is engaged in edit-warring because he wants to maintain the impression that the subject has no critics. Your kneejerk allegation of "baseless resources" in my contributions is hereby rejected. 145.18.242.63 (talk) 16:13, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
(EC) IP145, probably the best thing here would be for you to bring your proposed additions to the talk page. HW has explained above why he deleted your contributions, rather than both sides edit war over them and make this a BLP discussion, why not bring it to the talk page so that other editors can comment and gain consensus to add them? Dayewalker (talk) 17:21, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Daywalker, I would love to "bring [my] proposed additions to the talk page", but it is evident that HW does not want to have a discussion about his blanket-deletion of new contributions. Whatever happened to "assume goodwill on the part of new editors"? All I am seeing is kneejerk deletion, and some vague reference to WP:COATRACK and WP:BLP is certainly not going to help me understand what your automated PoS thinks is wrong with my contributions to tag them as vandalism. If HW was assuming goodwill on the part of a new editor, which he clearly doesn't (read his talk-page for examples of HW repeatedly assuming ill-will), he would have started a discussion himself here on the talk-page, indicating which entries he deleted and why. He has also not explained why he mainted some of the other edits I made. Why were those apparently more to his liking? If he insists that what I am doing is pure vandalism, then why didn't he just go ahead and delete all of my new contributions, instead of just some of them? It's is evident that HW is acting as a sycophant for the subject, not on the basis of wanting a neutral and unbiased entry. Why else would HW sabotage the entire "Criticism" section? He wants to create the illusion that the subject has no critics whatsoever, which is deceptive and makes the entry more biased, not more neutral. Furthermore, he has deceptively deleted a comment I left on his user talk-page warning him that I would not put up with his edit-warring and would report him. He has deceptively deleted this warning so as to create the impression that I did not warn him before reporting him. Care to explain how I am to have a civil discussion with some so evidently unwilling to engage other editors in discussion, to the point that he would delete prior warnings from his talk-page? 145.18.242.63 (talk) 16:13, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Please don't use a good faith question as an opportunity to attack another editor, especially since HW is not the only editor who has disagreed with your edits. As I said, you are welcome to bring your proposed changes here to this talk page for discussion. HW has nothing to do with that. Dayewalker (talk) 18:04, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
I very much disagree with Hullaballoo Wolfowitz's style and deletions in many cases. But they got this one right. That material was a coatrack that aimed at doing nothing but smearing a BLP, and the subject seems to be incredibly well-known and respected as an authority. Most troubling IMHO, was an attack cite equivocating as advocating for the sexual abuse of children. That's patently false, and of course, libelous. Repeating such claims here with non-reliable source is completely unacceptable. If you want a neutral hearing on any source ask at WP:RSN to see which if any of the sources you wish to include are acceptable, and what could they be used to state. In this way you have a foundation to build on to propose new additions in a contentious area. -- Banjeboi 22:11, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
In response to Benjiboi, first "equivocating as advocating for the sexual abuse of children. That's patently false, and of course, libelous", care to specify? You can't, because none of the critics I resourced ever said such a thing; Queen was criticized for her use of the term "consent", which Alfred Kinsey (her academic role-model) defined differently in the context of his sexology than the pedestrian use of the term. Care to explain how criticism on the academic definition and use of terms is "libelous"? As for you suggesting that my new contribtions are "doing nothing but smearing a BLP", if that were the case, why have you and HW maintained the new contribution on "SHARP" by my hand? And the entry on "pompsexual", also by my hand? And me trying to clean up this messy article? Why didn't you just go ahead and delete those as well, and return the entry to the mess I found it in before I stated working on it? If vandalism were the case, you would have deleted those entries as well. So your claims of vandalism are hereby rejected. It is clear that I am not trying to vandalize anything, I am trying to write an article that is neutral and unbiased, not promotional and sycophantic like the entry I encountered when I first came upon it. As for your other statement, "the subject seems to be incredibly well-known and respected as an authority", so is Dr. Sheila Jeffreys of the University of Melbourne, but since she is a Queen critic instead of a Queen sycophant, informing people of her criticism of Queen published in a respectable academic resource must be censored by the likes of you and HW, because you two just can't bare the though of making this entry more neutral and unbiased by having a "Criticism" section that informs readers to the fact that Queen has critics, and very scholarly and respected ones at that. 145.18.242.63 (talk) 16:13, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Amongst other gems we have - Queen's use of the term "consent" [...] places the victim of sex-crimes at the mercy of the perpetrator who alone decides what counts as consent: "'Consent' means the offender perceives the victim as consenting (...) A child then can be seen to 'consent' if it screams, cries, and such but if the molester determines these. This is what is accomplished by WP:Coatracking and it's completely unacceptable especially on a WP:BLP. The other content was also obviously slanted and POV thus violating WP:NPOV, WP:Undue, WP:Harm and let's add WP:RS just to be sure you know references supporting negative content need to be reliable. -- Banjeboi 04:02, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Restoring state of entry before edit-warring

Returned article to the state I found it as per the 27 October 2009 diff. Have fun cleaning up the mess I orginally found it in and researching everything yourselves. I've had it with you sycophants. I am not even going to say "you can't recognize a real honest contribution when you see one" because you sycophants don't want proper contributions and unbiased articles. 145.18.242.63 (talk) 16:30, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

I've reverted your wholesale reversion. If you don't want to work on this article any further, that's certainly your right. However, please don't make massive changes on your way out. Dayewalker (talk) 18:06, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
