SEX, ETC. -- A Web site by Teens for Teens

Welcome to the Sex, Etc. Blogs! Young bloggers are ready to sound off about any and everything, and they can't wait to hear what you have to say back.

Just remember, when you comment on our blogs, it'll take a little while for your post to show up. All comments are reviewed by staff at Sexetc.org. So, give us a sec, and your post will be up shortly. Comments posted on weekends will appear Monday morning. If you are wondering why a post never showed up, then it probably broke one of our community rules—see the rules below for more info!

Aphrodite—My Crazy Life

I am 21 years old, of Greek heritage and a junior at Rutgers University who is studying economics. I'm also a sorority girl (no, we aren't all sluts!) who likes to go out and have a good time. That is, when I'm not hitting the books, of course. If the internet and music didn't exist, neither would I; I need both to survive.

Most recent post - "I think she is more enamored with the idea of getting married than she is with her actual relationship. And I do think that at 22, she's too young to get married."

Ryan—Ethics, Not Morals

Hi. My name is Ryan. I will be writing here about my own thoughts in reaction to statistics, conversations I have with people I meet, and other things that interest me. I eagerly await your comments, criticisms, questions, and/or other thoughts about what I present on this Web site.

Most recent post - "But when I think about it, even if we don't talk about sex a lot, we're still being sexual. Even if it's not directly the act, our actions are sexual."

Jinny—The Sexual is Spiritual

Hi, I'm Jinny, a soon-to-be 18-year-old living in New Jersey. I'm a Middle-Eastern, Muslim lesbian who thinks way too much about way too many things. I appreciate lots of things from music to writing, which keeps me very busy, and there is nothing I love more than my hectic, dizzying life.

4/25/06 - "Honestly, how can we not stand in awe of the airplane? Satellites? The Golden Gate Bridge? The iPod??"

Miranda—Get Your Learn On

I'm Miranda, an 18-year-old, comprehensive sex ed activist, feminist, and lesbian from Illinois. I feel passionately about making sure all teens have all the medically-accurate information they need to protect themselves and have control over their own bodies.

Most recent post - "I'm not gonna lie, activist events are great places to meet people. I know, I know, that's not really the purpose, but I have met some of the greatest people and greatest friends I know at activist events."
