This month we hosted our second Pussy Party (here is a recap of our first Pussy Party .) There’s no doubt that every Pussy Party we host will have its own unique flavor. WHAT is a Pussy Party, you may ask? It’s a safe space for women to discuss and share the most intimate feminine […]

Blowjob Demo Recap!
The other night Sex Positive St. Louis hosted a blowjob demo. I’ve always wanted to give a demo using a real, live man, instead of a dildo or other prop. The first challenge was finding the right guy for the demo. He had to be someone I liked and trusted, attractive, average-sized, good at receiving […]
Sex and the Seriously Ill
Ed Note: This is a guest post written by B, a 55-yr-old man currently fighting a rare form of blood cancer. There is an undeniably strong connection between sex and physical health. People with active sex lives tend to be healthier. If sex, – especially imaginative sex – is part of your life, you’re likely […]
How I Learned to Stop Worrying (and Love the Porn)
In honor of today’s discussion about smut (join us today at The Ethical Society from 11:00 to 1:00!), I’m going to reprint an essay I wrote back in December of 2010. by Johnny Murdoc When I moved in with my partner, I did something unthinkable: I stopped masturbating. Though we’d been sexually active before we […]
Using Sex Toys Together
Ed Note: This is a guest post by Brandy. There is a very common misconception that sex toys are individual tools designed only for personal enjoyment. On some very basic level, this can be true, simply because most toys are only designed to please one person, physically, at a time. However, that doesn’t mean that […]
Savage U
There are certain segments of the sex positive movement and its sister movements (feminists, gay rights activists, trans rights activists, etc…) that hate Dan Savage. Savage has been giving sex advice for decades now, and because of his quick mouth, acerbic wit, and admittedly stinging sense of humor, it’s easy to go back twenty years, […]
Pussy Party Recap!
A dozen women attended Sex Positive St. Louis’ FIRST EVER Pussy Party, and it’s clear we need to host more parties like this!!! Every woman brought something different to the table. I, for one, brought mini-donuts, because they look like powdered-sugar cervixes, and we were going to see some awesome cervix action that night! We […]
Female Ejaculation Demo Recap!
As we walked up to the house where the female ejaculation demo was taking place, my partner muttered, “I feel like we’re attending a swinger’s party.” I laughed, “Why do you say that?” “We’re going to a random house in the suburbs, we’re carrying a bag full of sex toys, we’re about to witness a […]
Pussy Party April 10!
Attention women: Do you love your genitals? Were you taught that private parts were dirty? Have you ever seen a cervix? Do you know where the g-spot is? Would you like to see a variety of women up close and personal? This is the “Show-Me” State, after all. Come share your vulva/yoni/pussy/cunt/vagina in a safe […]
Travis Mathews on Gay Stories, Media, and His Kickstarter Campaign
Travis Mathews is easily one of my favorite people. Whether it’s his documentary work like In Their Room or his narrative fiction work like I Want Your Love, Mathews is getting at the emotional core of a new generation, and reflecting it back for everyone else to see. Thanks to the magic of the internet, […]
President of Planned Parenthood on The Daily Show
Cecile Richards, the President of Planned Parenthood, appeared on The Daily Show this week. I haven’t had the chance to watch the full extended version of the interview yet, but if it’s all as good as the short part that ran on the air, it’s worth your time. Here are the two parts: The Daily […]
Why We Need Sex Ed – Fabulous Graphic
There’s a lot of talk about shutting down various reproductive rights in our country. This is based on fear and control coming from the patriarchy plaguing our society. (Patriarchy is the fear of the feminine and mature masculine.) These religious-based opinions are downright dangerous. Combating this ignorance are people like Jen and her team, who […]
