“Got Aids Yet?,” asked one sign, and another read “Jesus Christ Has A Pressure Cooker For Every Dead Muslim.” Disgusting, indeed. Imagine the Westboro Baptist Church, only more straggly and less-organized. As I came up the escalator from the ground floor of the Convention Center up to the expo hall where eXXXotica was taking place, I was greeted with audible shouts from the small, almost pitiful crowd of protesters, offended by the idea of people having, and God forbid enjoying, sex. In fact, the most offensive thing at eXXXotica happened before I even went through those double-doors that promised to be the gates of hell, at least according to the throng of protesters that had gathered. If anything, when the eXXXotica Expo was first announced in Dallas, we were expecting something a little less vanilla than what actually went down in the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center this weekend. As far as we know, there was no flood of trafficked prostitutes in the streets of the suburbs or children whose eyes were burned out at the sight of naked flesh. Opening this year, it is a sculptural building with cantilevered upper floors, as well as a 75-foot rooftop infinity-edge swimming pool and a hidden underground lounge.For all the pearl-clutching and handwringing from conservatives and supposed feminists alike, the eXXXotica Expo came to Dallas this weekend without much incident. Hotel Swexan, a new, 22-story luxury property, is rising in Uptown’s Harwood District and will make its mark on the Dallas skyline.
