Advance Warning: Feminist Carnival of Sexual Freedom and Autonomy topics

This isn't an official announcement: I'm not due to host the carnival until June 1st, and there's officially two carnivals scheduled between now and then, but I thought it might be a good idea to get people's creative juices flowing well in advance of that date (deadline for submissions is likely to be May 29th, incidentally, so this is almost exactly 3 weeks' notice).

Topics I'd be particularly interested in seeing covered:

  • Sex and money - what's the relationship between them? Do personal finances affect the sex you have? Anything else relating to finances or economics and sexual freedom/autonomy.
  • Roles played in sex/sexuality/gender/society - either fantasy roleplaying, or changing roles through life (e.g. did you have different roles when you were younger?), or ways in which roles change depending on circumstances.

Don't be limited by the suggestions I've given, please take these themes and surprise me!

When my turn comes around I'll repost this with more info about submitting articles and stuff, but like I said, I wanted to give everyone a chance to contemplate the themes in depth and come up with loads of good stuff.

See you all in June!

Comments Moderation Policy

This blog is intended to be a place where I can develop my thoughts freely and get free and honest responses. Essentially, it is my safe space, and for that reason I have elected to maintain this blog as a moderated space. However, I am opposed in general to censorship and believe that usually the best way to kill a bad idea is with a better one, so very few comments will be rejected. Comments designed to cause offence for the sake of it (e.g. abusive or inflammatory remarks with no other content), or else those that I feel cross a boundary of human decency, are most likely to be rejected.
