Sunday, December 9th, 2007

I love lesbian erotica. I love it because I think that is is sexy and empowering when lesbians share their stories about erotic adventures. So I’m excited that the latest in the Best Lesbian Erotica series from Cleis Press is hitting the bookstores right about now — I can’t wait to get my copy!
My […]

Playgirl Magazine

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

I just got published in the June issue of Playgirl Magazine! Check it out — it’s on a newsstand near you. My article, “When Vibrators Attack,” is advice for the sex-toy sensitive. Some pleasure products are made with chemicals that can cause sensitivities and very unpleasurable reactions! It’s a buyer beware situation, and hopefully, armed […]

Again with New Jersey

Thursday, December 14th, 2006

The Garden State is doing a kick-butt job of making laws! Check out this info, from the National Center for Transgender Equality.
Also, much appreciation to my sexuality scholar friend Melita, a leading expert on all things having to do with polyamory, for alerting me to this opportunity for peace activism.

New Article!

Thursday, November 2nd, 2006

I have a new article out in Curve Magazine! It’s my first time getting something published in their delightful pages, and I couldn’t be more honored. The article is about my favorite toy store, Babeland, and all the fabulous work that they do. Did you know that Babeland is the second-largest lesbian-owned company in the […]

Happiest of Holidays

Friday, December 23rd, 2005

As a Jew who was born on the first night of Hanukah, I’m happy that my Jewish birthday is right around the corner. Tomorrow, I’ll be enjoying the best of the season with my family on the East Coast, in the company of this lovely woman.
This journal will be back next week…

The Female-Friendly Toy Store

Sunday, September 11th, 2005

If my years working at Good Vibrations taught me anything, it’s the value of creating a female-friendly environment for sex toy shopping. So, I wrote an article about it, for ASB Magazine! This is a trade magazine for the adult retail market, and the latest issue just arrived hot off the presses. Imagine a country […]
