Wow, it’s been a month since my last post.

If you’ve missed me, sorry about the long absence. It’s been a busy month, and I needed to take some time to get the rest of my life organized. Work is busy and Mark and I have been digging in some “roots”… Read full post »

Yep, it’s monogamish again.

Yep, it’s Dan Savage again.

This one comes to us from the Savage Love Letter of the Day (SLLOTD) iPhone app and was posted on Monday, March 12, 2012. What attracted me to this post was the fact that, while the broad topic is communication and the… Read full post »

This week’s Savage Love really made me stop and consider what it would be like to have an off-limits sexual desire / fetish / kink.I can’t imagine having to spend my entire life resisting my sexual interests and desires — desires which, as Dan points out — we don’t choos… Read full post »

I must say, I’m incredibly disappointed that this is really happening. The passing of Bill HB363 19-10 by the Utah Senate is absolutely ridiculous. Dropping sex ed from the curriculum all together, enforcing abstinence-only education as the “this or nothing” option, prohibiting teac… Read full post »

I just wanted to write a quick post about what day it is today – International Women’s Day!

I think this day is very important to celebrate to recognize women as important people in our communities. Women are the driving force in the world and do 60% of the world’s work.… Read full post »

It’s time for some sexy research!

I received this article from the Guttmacher Institute this morning. It makes a great case for comprehensive sex education. And you know how I feel about comprehensive sex ed!

Note: I’ve added the emphasis (aka bold and italics).

Read and enjoy!

I want my insurance to pay for my birth control … Why, you ask? Because I’m a slut and a prostitute, of course! 

 

Have you heard about Rush Limbaugh’s most recent offensive statement? I’m referring to the one where he called a young woman a slut and a prostitute because… Read full post »

I wanted to follow my first post with a better explanation of some trans/gender issues which will hopefully shed light on the subject. Also, just a note that I am not trying to speak on behalf of the trans* community nor do I  have the experience of being trans*. I write… Read full post »

I read this article this morning, and I found it so interesting that I just had to post it right away.

This has the potential to change the way we understand women, our ovaries and ovum, as well as reproduction in general. This research suggests that women’s bodies, similar to men,… Read full post »

I read this article tonight, and one of the things that struck me was the slippery slope reference made near the end of the article:

“I think the bigger argument, why people are up in arms … is this the first step?” he says from his office in the hotbed of

So, it’s Friday evening and I am sitting on my couch, trying to write a witty and entertaining blog post. Unfortunately, it’s just not flowing, so instead I am going to share a comic I saw on Facebook today. This comic, to me, sums up the current and pathetic state of… Read full post »

What’s a blog about sex without a little romance now and then?

Enjoy a Valentine’s Day chuckle while you read this Huff Post Comedy article.

Enjoy and happy love day!

As our population ages, we as a society are faced with many never-before-encountered dilemmas … one of which is the drastic increase of STI infections amongst seniors.

We’re living longer than ever, and with the advent of sexual enhancement drugs (aka Viagra and its relatives), more senio… Read full post »

Hello everyone,

For my first post, I thought it would be good to go through some terms used in the LGBT (etc) community that you may (or may not) have heard before. These terms go beyond the standard acronym (for an explanation of the acronym, check out Candice’s article here) and… Read full post »

Exciting news! Sex Ed Central has GROWN and now officially includes a VOLUNTEER!

Can you tell I’m super excited about this?

I want to give a big, warm welcome to Jocelyne, who will be contributing to SEC as a volunteer writer. After years of volunteering (which I still do, and you… Read full post »

It’s time for the Catholic School Board to crawl out of the long-gone days of the DSM‘s old school notion of homosexuality (aka homosexuality = mental illness). It’s time for them to wake up and realize that sexuality – in all its shapes, sizes, colours and directions, is natu… Read full post »

I read this article today, and it warmed my heart. Like the author, I believe that same-sex marriage equality is inevitable. Sooner or later (I vote for sooner … now would be good), we will get there!

Please share widely!

You’ve probably gathered that I’m currently quite interested in the topic of monogamy, and more specifically, monogamish. This is partly due to the fact that Dan Savage is having a monogamish week with the Savage Love Letter of the Day app (which I read every day), as well as the weekly… Read full post »

This week’s Savage Love is a good one! Enjoy reading what Dan’s readers have to say about their successful monogamish relationships.

I read this article on The Star today, and it gave me warm fuzzies inside.

Read on and learn about a husband and wife who are embracing their ability to help gay and lesbian couples to realize their dreams of being parents. Heather became a surrogate mom in 2005,… Read full post »

Thank you, FruitTaster, for bringing both of these articles to my attention!  

Let’s be honest … the media is full of sensationalized articles written to shock us and make us think that things are much worse than they really are. What I’m about to share with you is a great… Read full post »
