I am as sex-positive as the next perverted bisexual liberal, but I don't think sex-positivity should be solely the domain of any political party or that it means policing others' sexuality or judging it. There's no "better than" or "less than," if that makes sense.

I think blogging and the ability to instantaneously respond to news items has changed the way we approach all media. We're seeing people talking back to columnists, and going much further in the sexual realm than most papers, even alternative weeklies, will publish. I'm surprised more papers aren't having people do what you're doing with an online only column, and to be honest, I read almost all the media I do read online, and plenty of other people do, too, so I don't know what's stopping them.

Why can't we talk about sex just to talk about it? Because it's fun and silly and gross and exciting and disturbing and confusing and totally hot, sometimes all at once.

I'm one of those always busy type of people, so when there's a lull, I find something to fill it.

I'd really like to see smart sex writing, writing that can take sex apart and try to put it back together, that doesn't just put a box around "sex writing" and give it glaring neon lights but assumes that sex is part of everything else in our lives.

I want my work to be as inclusive as possible, because sex isn't just for some selected group of people, it's for everyone, and I'm open to reading about and learning from all kinds of folks.

At the end of the day, no one knows everything about sex, we all have things we can learn.
