I presented a talk called “A Brief History of Sex” at Sex 2.0 in Atlanta — a conference about the intersection of technology, social media and sexuality. My session gave a quick and dirty explanation of how sex has changed throughout the ages using slides borrowed from the professor who taught an undergrad “Human Sexuality” psych course at my university.
I’d never tried the whole liveblogging thing before, so signed up with coveritlive.com and gave it a go. Tidbits from the conference — with the bulk centered on Viviane’s talk about “how to be a sex blogger” — are below. Disclaimer: For the record, FUNKYBROWNCHICK is a dating blog, not a sex blog. Village Voice columnist Audacia Ray once described my blog by saying I don’t “deliver a blow-by-blow (heh) account of her own sex life — but she spares no details about her constant string of dates.” What’s the difference between a sex blog and a dating blog? Good question. When Audacia asked me, here’s what I said:
“Sex blogs often have information about activities, items and events related to sexual intercourse. Dating blogs often chronicle journeys toward finding relationships — whether casual, committed, polyamorous, intimate, sexual or some combination thereof.”
Learn something every day, huh? It was great to have time to hang out with Audacia Ray, Amber Rhea, Elizabeth Wood, J Brotherlove, Melissa Gira Grant, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Regina Lynn, Tiffany B. Brown and the other lovely folks. Now, for those of you who wanna know more about sex blogging, check out my liveblog thing below. Heads up … I highly recommend you visit Sex in the Public Square right now; many of the other links Vivane provided are NSFW (not safe for work). So, tread lightly. Also, in case you missed it over the weekend, be sure to weigh in on the FUNKYBROWNCHICK.com discussion about good girls vs. dirty girls.
