O hai. Ur dumped. Plz to enjoy my last Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog post. My gig at Bitch ends today, so the topic is breakups, complete with much oversharing about my own fraught history of oddball breakups (the LOLCat may remind you of one). All things must come to an end…whether by voicemail,...

Is Google A Dater’s Best Friend?...

In Praise of Casual Sex...

Last week over at Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog, we talked about the joy of no sex. In this week’s post, it’s all about the not-boyfriends. I’ve simply never bought into the idea that all sex must live up to the shining heteronormative ideal of candlelight and roses and true love (which,...

No Sex, Please, We’re Sex-Positive...

In this latest post from Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog at Bitch Magazine, I wanted to let readers get the last word on the “Is No Sex Sex-Positive?” post. Between Bitch, Facebook, Harpyness and e-mails I received, it was clear that plenty of women have strong opinions about not having sex, and...

Is No Sex Still Sex Positive?...

Via Liz_Kelly @ Flickr. In my most recent post for Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog, I actually switched from talking about sex to talking about…no sex. This was in response to a brilliant reader comment: Becky I’m interested to know if you’ve ever thought about abstinence from a sex positive...

The latest post from my Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog on Bitch Magazine in which I respond to a reader who wrote: Curious to know what you and Bitch readers think about threesomes.

Newsflash: Summer Flings Also Appropriat...

For those of you enjoying your Labor Day weekend with some end-of-summer sexytime, gather ’round. In my Labor Day post from Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog at Bitch Magazine, I have my say about Glamour’s “helpful” article that promises “6 ways to turn your summer fling into...

My latest (and mercifully uncontroversial) post from Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog at Bitch Magazine, in which I ponder–and overshare about–the pleasures and perils of having post-breakup sex with your ex.

No Sex Please, I’m “Wrinkly&...

My latest from the Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog at Bitch Magazine, in which I commit a wee bit of feminist-on-memoir violence against The Virginia Monologues, Virginia Ironside’s nastily sex-negative new book about the “joys” of being a woman over 60.

Love, (De)Friendship and Facebook...

Does anyone else snicker whenever they get a message saying someone has "poked you?" My latest from Bed, Bitch and Beyond blog at Bitch Magazine, in which I tackle burning questions about Facebook and the sticky issues of on-line breakups, defriending and why you should never put your relationship...
