This post appeared on the Good Vibrations Magazine. The fabulous Greta Christina wrote an article the other day, in which she speculated on the reasons why there aren’t more men writing about sex.

I’ve been following the development of KinkForAll for a while and I’ve heard great things about it. It’s an “unconference” that intends to “inspire a creative, interactive and open environment where everyone feels comfortable discussing, learning about, and discovering the intersections of all kinds of sexuality with the rest of life.” Sounds fun, right?

Yesterday, I blogged about the The Sexual Health, Education and Pleasure Project in Toronto and some of Dr. Miriam Grossman’s backlash to accurate, pleasure-positive sex education.
