Just a quick post. Amber Rhea has hosted the latest Feminist Carnival of Sexual Freedom and Autonomy with a fab post here. It’s chock a blog (yes, that was a typo but I like it so I’ll leave it) full of great posts about the intersection of sex and feminism.
And yes, I’m listed in there [...]

These images are from Wordle, a site that analyses text to see which words are used most often. The first image is made up of my del.icio.us tags. The second one is the result of taking all the posts on the index page (back to 19 May) and seeing what I talked about the most.

June is a big month for milestones, it seems. Today marks the fourth anniversary of when I started the Ms Naughty blog. Back then I was using a very simple script and I wasn’t obsessive about writing everyday, but it was a good start.
Four years of writing around five posts a week is a big [...]

Yesterday the blogosphere heard about the frustration of blogger Debauchette, who discovered that porn mag Tight had lifted large parts of her writing and passed it off as original.
Today I find I’m in the same boat. Doing a spot of Google rank research for this blog I discovered that some shit site called Radical Left [...]

The blog has just been through the ringer a little, thanks to a spot of spammer hacking and a subsequent upgrade after hours of fucking around.
Anyway, I’m back again, hopefully it will stay up, especially after I put all the padlocks on the doors, nail the windows shut and load up my virtual shotgun.

This weekend Amber Rhea’s Sex 2.0 conference was held in Atlanta, Georgia. It was attended by various blogging luminaries like Dacia and Rachel Kramer Bussell and was a general discussion of feminism, sexuality and the internet. It looked very cool and various posts are appearing about the event as I write.
Thing is, though, I wasn’t [...]

Violet Blue’s SF column this week, Ugly Violet, and her subsequent blog post has really struck a chord with me. She writes about the way comment trolls dismiss women because of their appearance and the body image issues women have in our culture. This is a conversation we need to be having and one I [...]

I didn’t post anything yesterday and there’s not much to talk about today either. Slow porn for women week, I guess, but my other problem at present is a growing concern that my blogs are taking up too much time.
I’ve got four full-time blogs at the moment (two are for For The Girls) and I’m [...]

It’s been a long time coming but I’m pleased to say that For The Girls now has it’s very own blog.
Actually, that’s not quite true. The members area of FTG has had a blog from the very beginning and I’ve faithfully written in that almost every day. Now, however, we’ve added one that’s accessible to [...]

Wired’s Regina Lynn has an interview with Audacia Ray about Naked on the Internet here.
I liked this quote:
I did an appearance on the Geraldo at Large show in March. In the interview, they asked, “And how is this dangerous?” at least six different times. That’s a question rooted in crazy technophobia that’s all put off [...]

“We knew more about each other than most of our friends knew about us.”
This is a quote from Naked On The Internet: Hookups, Downloads and Cashing In On Internet Sexploration. It’s by a sex blogger, talking about how she cultivated friendships with other women online.
As I flicked through Audacia Ray’s new book, the statement rang [...]

If you’re willing to submit yourself to my Australian accent, you can hear me on the Sex City radio show in Toronto on CIUT FM at around 5.30pm this Saturday night.
That’s 7.30am Sunday morning here. I have to say, I think there should be a rule against 7.30am even existing on Sundays. I am SO [...]

The wonderful Ell runs a very hot, very witty sex blog called Wilful Damage, which has received numerous rave reviews and has many fans. She also Australian, something of a rarity in the sex blog world.
I contacted Ell last year to see if she wanted to be involved in my feature about sex blogging for [...]

Our feature article at For The Girls this month is about female sex bloggers. I had a really interesting time talking to numerous bloggers for the article - with extra thanks to Always Aroused Girl and Audacia Ray.
I am not a sex blogger in the standard sense of the word. While my blog is about [...]
