- It started when Alice Dreger’s 9th-grade son came home from school and told her that his sex education class was going to be focusing on abstinence. Dreger took a seat in the corner and brought out her laptop. And then she began to tweet.

"You'll find a good girl. If you find one that says 'no,' that's the one you want." HE ACTUALLY JUST SAID THAT.

- A sad day for slutwear: Frederick’s of Hollywood Group Inc., a Los Angeles lingerie brand, has closed all of its stores and will do business only online. Born out of the World War II pinup craze, the company was the brainchild of Frederick Mellinger. He initially opened a lingerie business in New York before moving the shop, renamed Frederick’s of Hollywood, to Los Angeles in 1947. Despite Mellinger’s famous quote that “sex never goes out of fashion,” the company fell behind competitors.

- “I had seen in the flesh what a simple ‘I have herpes‘ could do when said fearlessly, without shame,” Ella Dawson wrote. “Because when a real person — a woman you know and respect — casually mentions having herpes, it stops being a punchline and starts being someone’s reality.”

- The war on sex work is a war on women: In May 2013, Monica Jones, a student and LGBT activist at Arizona State University, was arrested for “manifesting prostitution.” According to the FBI, police arrested over 57,000 people on such charges in 2011. The vast majority were women.

- A Japanese artist currently on trial for obscenity over vulva sculptures says her arrest shows how far behind her country is in terms of sexual equality. She was arrested last year after building a kayak shaped like her vulva and for emailing plans of the boat, which included pictures of her scanned genitalia, to others. If convicted of distributing or holding obscene images for the purposes of selling, Igarashi could face up to two years in prison and a fine of up to £13,400 (2.5m Yen).

- Veteran adult performer Justine Joli’s move into manufacturing and distributing pot-infused edible products, namely marijuana jerky, is (bizarrely) seeing porn and marijuana hailed as “the new business bedfellows” by CNBC.com. Three years ago, Joli, who has performed in about 250 adult films, started up Green Fairy Edibles; today, the star plans on moving away from porn, dissolve her adult website and invest hardily into Green Fairy Edibles. “I’m doing what most entrepreneurs do,” she told CNBC.com. “I’m selling off my life and going all in. … One day of making jerky [makes me] the exact same amount I would make on set.”

- Free The Nipple (the film) follows a group of young women who take to the streets of New York City topless, to protest the archaic censorship laws in the United States. Activist Liv and With set out to start a movement and change the system through publicity stunts and graffiti installations while armed with First Amendment lawyers. The film explores the contradictions in our media-dominated society, where acts of violence and killing are glorified, while images of a woman’s nude body are censored by the FCC and the MPAA (as well as social media websites).

- In 1978, the CIA was caught up in a BDSM Cold War affair. A potential Soviet asset had fallen for a professional dominatrix who made decent money peeing on entertainment lawyers. Also in play was Mary Tyler Moore’s landscaper, merely because he was sweet on the dominatrix and her record collection.

- Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner, who has appeared in all seasons of the popular show, said she stopped her mother in her tracks when she attempted to have a conversation with her about sex when she was 16. “I said, ‘This isn’t necessary, I know everything. I know every single thing that a person can do – and more’. The show is very inventive.”
