Brilliant Women
February 04, 2006
Annalee Newitz She’s a nerd, she’s a geek, she’s a raging polyamorous queer. She does lots of insightful and often hilarious writing about sex and technology.
Carly Milne Fomerly of the fabulous Pornblography. I am hooked on Carly’s writing and can’t wait to see what she does next.
Carol Queen When I first started to think about the fluidity of my sexuality, Carol’s writings made me feel less alone. A pansexual pervert and sex radical through-and-through, her work is a major inspiration.
Ducky Doolittle Fabulous NYC sex educator who has her first book coming out in spring 2006: Sex with the Lights On.
Ellen Friedrichs A brilliant and awesome New York City-based sex educator who I’m proud to call my friend (and former MoSex co-worker). She spends a lot of time shuffling from borough to borough, teaching the gospel of sex education and answering any sex question that falls from the sky.
Hanne Blank The grand madame of body positive sexuality and feminism who deftly straddles the lines of historian, erotica writer and activist.
Heather Corinna Founder of Scarleteen, the incredible sexuality resource for teens. She’s also an artist, writer, and model who dances to the beat of her own brand of feminism.
Jamye Waxman Sex educator, writer and all-around awesome lady.
Melissa Gira Web and digital artist, sex worker and deep thinking busy grrl. Editor of Sexerati, erotic intelligence for a hotter tomorrow.
Rachel Kramer Bussel Writer, cupcake-lover, and bag-carrier – I met Rachel when I was working at the Museum of Sex, and she’s been an immense supporter of the work I’ve done over the past few years.
Regina Lynn Sure, technology and sex go great together. But they go even better with brains.
Susie Bright Erotica writer and editor, sex educator and cultural critic, Susie sets the precedent for a lot of the sex writing and education that’s happening now.
Tristan Taormino Anal sex guru and sex ed dynamo, Tristan has passion for her work in spades.
Violet Blue She may be last on the this list (it’s an alphabet thing) but she is not the least amazing, for sures. Her books on sexuality are some of the best, most fun and most accessible books out there. Also, she’s always saying nice things about me.

How awesome are you? Women thanking/recognizing other women makes my whole day; what a lovely way to start mine.
If I had a hat to tip rather than this ratty bedhead, I’d be tippin’it, lady. Thanks!
