So you’d like to write for Sex Calumny, but need some inspiration? No problem… here are some example topics for you to mull over.

In the News - As long as there is no official division between sex and the State, your body is a political topic. Researched reportage and editorials are equally welcome.
Should it be okay for more than two people to marry?
The Playboy Defense - A thoughtful article on the assumptions that make acquaintance rape common and hard to detect on college campuses.

Media Reviews - In the absence of a open, communicative culture of sex, TV and film are responsible for a great deal of America’s sex education. We’re interested in thoughtful evaluations of how specific TV series, books, or films portray sexuality and romance. What kind of sexual message does the piece promote? Does the piece encourage reflection, or does it fall back on stereotypes?

Kinsey (film)
The Almond, by Nedjma (book)

Personal Experience - We can learn the most from each other. Stories of your own experience, whether humorous or serious, might begin a productive discussion.
