Karen, there is this guy I like a lot and I think he likes me a lot. We work together and I really [...]

Does age difference matter?
Talking vaginas and orgasms
I am going to the Vagina Monologues in Austin this evening, and I am very excited about it! This will be the first time for me to see the play, although I have wanted to for some time. There are still tickets available, and at $15 they’re a great deal! Eve Ensler will be there [...]
What I learned at SXSW
I learned many things at SXSW Interactive.
First and foremost, of course, I learned that geeks are a lot of fun. There were interesting and relevant panels starting at 10am everyday, and when they ended at 6pm, the parties started and went until 2 or 3 or 4 in the morning. The networking and [...]
Peeping Tom or child porn?
The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals ruled that a man taking a picture up the inside of a 16-year-old girl’s skirt in public is not illegal. How is this even possible? Apparently he was charged as a Peeping Tom - and apparently that law only applies to places where someone can reasonably claim privacy - [...]
1 in 4 US teenage girls has an STD

Instances of rape (including date rape) are [...]

First, again, please feel free to e-mail me privately at wendyharlowe@gmail.com if you don’t want to post comments here. I look forward to hearing from you. I’ve been gratified by the response to my first post, including comments and private e-mail correspondence. (Over the years I’ve worried [...]
Another Guest Blogger
(Written by guest blogger Wendy Harlowe.)
Dr. Rayne has kindly let me weigh in as a guest blogger for the few days while she is at the SXSW Interactive conference; she knows one of my favorite topics in life is sex! I think this blog is playing a crucial role in the needed discussion of [...]
SXSW and a Guest Blogger

Among the really interesting events I will be taking part are the following:
What Teens Want Online and On Their [...]
