Circumcision is a Consent Issue12/26/2022 An Interview with Sex & Kink Educator Winter Tashlin  Bodily autonomy is key to consent. “My body, my rules” is a common catchphrase of the feminist movement — and rightfully so! When we think about bodily autonomy, we often think of the right to choose whether or not to have an abortion or have sex (both of which are incredibly important rights!). But other bodily autonomy issues often get overlooked, minimized, or even scoffed at.
You Don't Learn About the Clit in Med School11/17/2022 An Interview with Gorjus Doc, aka Dr. Tasha Ramsey  If you've ever seen a sexual anatomy diagram, I am willing to bet that it was based on a white person. As much as the sex-positive movement strives to combat oppression, it is still largely made up of middle class white people, and we aren't always as aware of intersectional oppression as we should be.
Q&A with a Penis Artist!9/4/2018 An Interview with Noa Bulbulz  Shortly after I moved to Jerusalem last year, I got a friend request on Facebook from a woman in Massachusetts who I had never met. I get a lot of random friend requests, so I was not especially intrigued. Upon looking at her profile, it quickly became clear that she was an artist — specifically, a penis artist.
Finding the Words for Sexy Stuff9/5/2016  It can be hard to find words you’re comfortable using to describe sexual stuff. There are so many weird or uncomfortable connotations that go along with sex-related words. But having a vocabulary you’re more or less comfortable using makes it a lot easier to communicate about sex with your partner(s), and with anyone!
Since better communication tends to mean better sexual experiences, it’s worth a shot! Summer Tour Recap!8/21/2015 This August I traveled to Maryland and Virginia to be a part of two sexuality conferences, Amorous Revolt and the Woodhull Sexual Freedom Summit. It was awesome to meet so many people who are passionate about creating a more sexually accepting culture!  Typing up zine idea suggestions for people who need a little inspiration in my zine making workshop. Thank you to Reid Mihalko for capturing this moment! (And thank you to njoy for letting me use your table space for a moment!)  A zine someone made in my Sex Positive Zine Making Workshop at Woodhull, inspired by Sarah Mueller’s amazing lube workshop.  An arty penis zine someone made at my zine making workshop at Woodhull.  A close up of one artist’s zine.  The zine I started in my zine making workshop at Woodhull.  A pep talk I wrote myself when I was feeling anxious at Woodhull. It got cut off because a friend approached me in the middle of it, and I welcomed the external support. I am glad to have been a part of the Woodhull experience, and glad for the effort I made in this moment of anxiety. :)  My friends at The Center for Sexual Pleasure and Health let me use some of their table space for Pleasure Pie zines, and I am eternally grateful! It was a great opportunity to put my work out there in a community of enthusiastic, supportive sex geeks. Also, I put up the Thoughtful Penis Series on the wall behind the table, because why not?

Thank you so much to everyone who donated to our Sex Positive Summer Tour fundraiser for making this all possible!!! |
