Hitting the news today: Reuters Health reports on what I’ve been telling you about kids and sex ed — all of us front-line sex educators have been telling everyone — for years (from my Google Tech talk on abstinence education last month to 2006’s Open Source Sex podcast interview about working the SFSI hotlines)… ABC,…

LA smells like… fun!
Me on the plane with Love + Sex With Robots and a priest sitting next to me. (Thanks to the guys at FyreTV for the book!) Actually, LA kind of smells like something’s burning right now. I’m at Eon McKai‘s house and we’re getting ready to go see some porn. In person. I got a…
Bored with sex scandals
Image via erofantasian. First, regarding my SF Chronicle column today — no, I don’t yet know why it didn’t go online until 9:30 am today, why it’s not on the front page as it always is (even though my interview with Phil Bronstein about it *is* on the front page), and why I’m not in…
Hot boy Thursday
Image via Flickr’s men’s underwear pool. The demand was just too high — emails, comments: *hello* Smart Girls’ Porn Club 2.0 (and welcome, boys — my abandoned 450+ member SGPC used to be women-only on Tribe.net and was very popular until the censors showed up). Tribe’s censors are gone, but I think everyone belongs here…
Blue food
Tomorrow I’m meeting with Hollywood executives about something. It’s so sekrit even I don’t know. I am absolutely sure that this is exactly what will happen: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0ASaYAA7oo[/youtube] If you feel like eating more Blue food, aka, product Violet, check out the ad for myself (aka “demo reel”) I was forced in a Thai sweatshop to…
A timely sexblog discovery: The bunny house
Image by Mr. Theklan, via. My recent post about sex scandals has been extremely popular, and the comments are pretty mind-blowing (hey — no puns yet; I’m saving them for my column tomorrow). So it seems like this week on the blog, which seems like a slow week, is much ado about sex scandals and…
Margaret Cho’s Beautiful tour: Do not miss
Last saturday I got to go see Margaret Cho’s Beautiful Tour show at the Warfield, and it was SO much fun and SO funny and all about sex and I’m driving people crazy repeating her jokes all week. So when it comes near you — go see it, I insist. I needed to laugh until…
it’s only a sex scandal if you’re scandalized by sex
Image by Marc Lagrange via Gala Darling. Eloquent reader R sent me a link to what I think is one of the best, most relevant and inspiring pieces of sex writing I’ve seen yet: Against Sexual Scandal by Lauren Berlant. It should be read far and wide; it’s not longer than a page but gets…
Pretty (sexy bald) girl Friday
This week’s PGF is in honor of a longtime reader who wrote me, “I have a request. Please post some pics of some pretty bald chicks on your pretty girl Friday. No, I’m very het and I don’t have a fetish for bald chicks, but I do need a bit of bolstering of courage and…
SXSWi: Sexual Privacy Panel [video, audio, thoughts]
Sneaky pre-panel setup image by George Ruiz. Sexual Privacy Online: it was a hell of a panel. Horror stories, legal aspects, hacker input, Gawker/Fleshbot ethics, being stalked, being outed, deciding what to post and when (or if) to remove sexual content, our rights to privacy — and our right to be left alone. Discussion raged,…
