Racial Inclusivity and Secrets of the Sex Masters

November 23, 2014

I’ve been pretty quiet here on Sex in Words lately (more on that soon) because I’ve been very busy with lots of exciting, rewarding (and some disappointing) projects. One of the good ones was having my writing appear in Secrets of the Sex Masters, an excellent new book by Carl Frankel. I was fortunate enough to be pen the chapter on anal sex —a true honour for me. The book is an excellent resource and I do recommend you pick it up! At the same time, an issue with the book has come to light, one that I am ashamed to …

Honoured to be a Sex Blogging Superhero!

October 30, 2014

I truly am pleased and mildly surprised to be on Kinkly’s Sex Blogging Superhero list this year. Busy times have taken me away from Sex in Words for chunks of time (like, the past few weeks and the next two to come!) and my features and regular posts have waned. Plus, switching to this url has lessened my stats. Sometimes I worry I’ve run my course, lost my audience. I also haven’t been able to keep up with my friends’ blogs…many of home are ranked on this list. But this honour…renews my spirit. After I complete my plethora of events …

New Sex Education Curriculum Consultation

October 30, 2014

I’m sorry, but why are parents being consulted on potential new sex education curriculum in Ontario? Are teachers and government officials not they experts? They set curriculum in all other subject matters…but this, we have to ask parents? If you were to ask parents to do a curriculum survey in any other subject, you’d likely just get glazed eyes and blank stares. I expect no less than a debacle. And why should the parent council head be the one? I am sure there will many who are unqualified or entirely biased. How will these people be chosen? I’ve stayed away …
