The Sex Positive Journalism Awards
After yesterday’s post about that Abby Winters beat up, I thought I should post this.
Porn and sex in general often get a bad wrap in the mainsteam media. An awful lot of news stories and articles feature an anti-porn and sex-negative slant that help to create a “bad vibe” when it comes to sex in general.
The “Sexies” are new awards designed to reward fair and sex-positive journalism. Readers are invited to send in suggestions for good stories that:
…present accurate information about sexual health and sexual diversity, who resist the assumption that sex-negative religious minorities represent the rest of the country’s values, and who give news events involving sexual subcultures enough context and background that their readers can get the whole picture.
The submission page is here.
