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 […]

Book Readings and Radio Interviews, Oh My!

Thursday, December 7th, 2006

Tuesday night was the book launch and first book reading for Nobody Passes: Rejecting the Rules of Gender and Conformity — very exciting stuff, as ten of the book’s contributors (including yours truly) got to read excerpts of our work to a packed house at the San Francisco public library! Earlier this evening, I gave […]

New Book!

Thursday, November 16th, 2006

Coolest news ever: I have an essay in a new book that’s just about to come out from Seal Press. The book is called Nobody Passes: Rejecting the Rules of Gender and Conformity, and I wrote the essay with the fabulous Sandy Chang. We wrote about gender and femme identity and POC identity and a […]

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 […]

Nothing Deep

Tuesday, February 28th, 2006

It’s Oscar night this Sunday, and of course I’ll be watching. I’m a sucker for celebrity gossip, red-carpet mayhem, and sensationalism. My bets are on Brokeback Mountain for winning a bunch of prizes, even though I still stick with my original opinion, written about here.
I have delightful news about my little Brokeback review: Bi Magazine […]

In the article, I got to interview Dr. Nick Baham, a professor at CSU - East Bay, who teaches a class on African-American sexuality, and Dr. […]

Odds-n-Ends

Wednesday, December 21st, 2005

I’ve been getting such positive feedback about “Bisexual Cowboys in Love“, my Brokeback Mountain article! I’m all smiles.
A Canadian friend sent me this link. Our neighbors to the north are getting it right.
Perusing Livejournal brought me into awareness of the Magic cone, which may be of interest to women and transmen alike.
Finally, I finished my […]

Brokeback Mountain

Monday, December 19th, 2005

I just got published again!
After I saw Brokeback Mountain (see 12/8 journal entry), I got to wondering: why was everyone and their mother calling it a gay movie? It looked like a bisexual flick to me. I sat down and wrote about that, then submitted the article to American Sexuality magazine, a very fabulous […]
