Ban Fraternities Because of Sexual (and other) Violence

Being someone who is not at all into “joining” or “belonging,” the idea of fraternities just doesn’t do anything for me. Now, after reading this piece about the alarming rates of sexual assault and other notable transgressions, I am all for doing away with this stupid tradition. I recently ranted to my special lady friend about the emphasis placed on frosh week at universities and colleges—why don’t people just go to school to learn? Same with frats. Go to class, go to the library, go out with friends. Don’t rely on some group of people to somehow prop you up. …

The Hook-up: A Sexy Woman of a Certain Age

Introducing A Sexy Woman of a Certain Age Blogs are a great way for people of marginalized communities—particularly sexual communities—to express their needs, wants, desires, distain, frustration and more. Erica Jagger of A Sexy Woman of a Certain Age has come to express herself and speak to many other mid-life women. About their sexuality, their experiences and their place in sexual communities. Her combination of stunning visuals and expert writing is tremendous. How did you get into sex blogging? I had blogged under a different pen name, on a totally different subject, for three years, and felt that I’d said …

Why Biphobia Exists and How to Repel it with Humour

For too long, bisexuality has been seen as experimentation, a stop-gap to coming out or downright non-existent. Why? Because supposedly smart and intelligent people keep telling us so. The Weird and Troubling History of Bisexuality Studies Fortunately, ideas are changing. Biphobia is still pretty rampant, but if you come up against it, here are some clever ways to combat. I have to remember some of these: The 21 Realest Tumblr Posts On Bisexuality

Long-term Partnership Sex Can Be Awesome!

This article on the benefits of “married” sex is fun and so much of it is totally bang-on! While I wish it didn’t include the term “married,” these benefits of long-term partnership can be the glue that keeps a sex life going. True enough, when these start to slip or other issues arise, well, yes, you can get into trouble. Much like derogatory terms like “vanilla,” there ain’t nothing wrong with long-term partnership if that is what works for you.

Historical Birth Control is Hysterical; Current Access is No Laughing Matter

Weasel testicles, beaver testicles, crocodile dung, pig intestines, onion juice, cola???? You know it had to be men who thought of all these ridiculous methods of birth control. It is wonderful that we have science to help us understand and ensure a woman’s right to contraceptive control over her body. Too bad not all women have those options. WTFP?!—Where’s the Family Planning is looking to help those women.

Ms Naughty: Considering Her Gender

Ms. Naughty, someone I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with at this year’s Feminist Porn Awards and Conference has penned a strong, personal statement on how “cisgendered” just does not feel right for her, even if that would “seem” to be the label our current identification system would use for her. She discusses her gender expression and refutation of gender roles, while at the same time, incorporating a significant amount of her personality and comfort into conversation. It is a truly compelling read. Gender continues to be an evolving conversation and I think Ms. Naughty has just broadened that talk …

Would You Support Sex in Words on Patreon?

Hi Everyone, I like to think of myself as a hardworking sex writer/broadcaster/gadabout, but it isn’t always easy to find work that pays or even pays at all. I am dedicated to sharing sex news, opinions and erotica—as well as helping others get their messages, products and events out there and known. I’ve seen some people have success with Patreon, and I wonder if this model could work for myself and this blog, to fill the gaps when paying work is hard to come by. I could offer a number of little things to entice you to support me monthly …

Becoming Belle Knox Busts Bullshit Beliefs of Porn

If you haven’t seen the documentary Becoming Belle Knox yet, well, click back there and watch it. It is remarkable and one of the best comments on pornography you’re going to find. If you’re not up for watching just yet, this analysis of the doc by Samantha Allen is a great refutation of the foolish thoughts commonly spread about porn.

TMI Tuesday: September 23, 2014: Marriage

TMI Tuesday: September 23, 2014 Happy Monday!  On this week’s TMI Tuesday we discuss marriage. The majority of the questions were submitted by Virtual Sin but I added one of my own. Guess which one? 😉  -H Marriage 1. Do you believe in marriage? I really have no opinion on it. Do it if you want to, don’t feel you need to. I am not interested in it personally anymore. 2. Have you ever proposed marriage or been proposed to marry? What happened? I have. Two weeks before our marriage she left me for the guy we’d been having threesomes with. …
