Guest Author, August 20, 2010
I was recently given the opportunity to help host the Dallas Pink Posse event on Owning Sexuality. If any of you have met Megan then you know you just don't tell her no.

Have you ever been raped? Did the condom break? Did you have a random encounter with a sexy stranger when you hadn’t thought ahead to bring birth control?

I’m about to teach a series of workshops titled Owning Sexuality, and it’s got me thinking what a big task I have ahead of me. Do any of us do a good job of really owning our sexuality? I think not.
