Melissa Gira‘s teaching a class on sex and blogging:

Blogging Sex
Tuesday, October 14, 2008, 7:30pm – 9:00pm
Center for Sex and Culture
1519 Mission Street, San Francisco, CA

Learning how to set up a blog is *so* not the same thing as learning how to deal with what you’re going to say on your blog. Especially if that’s about sex. Your audience may be the dozen friends and lovers who read you every day in a private journal, or it could be as much of the world that you want — and co-workers, family, and a few ex’s to boot. You may write under a pseudonym, or you may want to make a name for yourself. You might write smut, or confession, memoir, or essay: since it’s sex and you’re writing in public, it’s going to get messy sooner or later. Melissa will share some of the more scandalous success stories of where blogging sex has taken a few online personalities you’ve heard of and (since it’s the Internet) some you definitely haven’t heard of yet. She’ll be drawing on her own ten years as a serial oversharer online, and just a little on her stint this year reporting on sex for the Internet industry gossip blog Valleywag.com. If you’ve ever wondered how to write fairly, smartly, and hotly online about your own sex life, come to this talk and workshop with your laptop and your questions.
