is a reluctant sexpert, a feminist and queer advocate, and a walking case study on bad publicity. As a Harvard undergrad, she authored the blog Sex and the Ivy about her college sexcapades and misadventures. Her reputation has never quite recovered.

We do it by promoting women as subjects and decision-makers within the media, training women and girls so they are media-ready and media-savvy, exposing sexism in the media, and creating innovative new media and original content. If you cannot attend, but would like to make a tax-deductible donation to the Women’s Media Center, you can visit the main donation page. Let me know if you’ll be there! I’ll be in San Francisco for a few days beforehand, but will unfortunately be missing the Sex::Tech conference (where some of my favorite folks in sex education will be speaking).

Please pass on these events to your friends and colleagues in California!
