[Laurence Horn]

For a lively look, you might want to check out the award-winning eponymous (well, it’s called “Shortbus”, no space) movie:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortbus
"A group of New Yorkers caught up in their romantic-sexual milieu converge at an underground salon infamous for its blend of art, music, politics, and carnality.”
It’s not bad if you’re in the right mood for it.
