My Girl Boner Book: What’s Changed and What Hasn’t Since the Beginning
I love learning about people’s creative journeys, especially around a big launch time. So with my dream book releasing in two weeks, I thought I’d share a bit more about mine, including some vulnerable parts. If you caught this post, you know that a good six years have passed since I first realized I wanted […]

The Sleeping Beauty Myth and Erotic Desire: A #GirlBoner Chat with Kasia Urbaniak
Growing up, Kasia Urbaniak learned what she says most of us probably did about sex and sexuality, “a very disorganized, irresponsible hodgepodge of misinformation and experimental childlike social testing.” If only she, and all of us, had a resource such as her back then. Now an expert in power dynamics and communication, Urbaniak made her […]

Wild Places to Get Busy: A #GirlBoner Chat with Natasha Chandel
Let’s be real. You don’t need to go to great lengths to spice up your sex life or to keep it smoldering. Everything from trying a new position to indulging in a new dating adventure beforehand can turn up the heat and keep those punch-drunk brain chemicals going. But what if your Girl Boner takes […]

“Trans Inclusion is Not a Delusion” – A #GirlBoner Chat with Blossom Brown
Blossom Brown grew up in Jackson, Mississippi, a city known for southern hospitality, gospel soul music and sumptuous soul food. It isn’t, however, known as a particularly LGBTQIA-friendly region. Growing up, sex talks from Brown’s parents made her uncomfortable due not only to surrounding taboos and her strict upbringing, but because of deeply personal questions […]

Lesbian Sex, Clitoral Stim and Jealousy: A #GirlBoner Chat with Stevie Boebie
If you’ve ever searched the internet for lesbian sex tips, you’ve probably encountered Stevie Boebie. The YouTuber who teaches queer folks how to have sex started out like many of us: learning virtually nothing—or at least nothing positive—about sexuality.

Sexual Discovery and Finding Love: A #GirlBoner Chat with Joan Price
You know that party/networking question that’s nearly become cliche: “If you could have dinner with anyone, who would it be?” Recently I had an experience that fulfilled such a dream-dinner, only it wasn’t planned as such and there was no food involved—though it was definitely nourishing and delicious! During CatalystCon, a wonderful sexuality education and […]
