(Hello, Nerve readers. I hope you enjoyed the only bit of sex advice I’ve ever given on the internet. Now I don’t usually do that. Or this, either. For you, just for today, an excerpt from my own journal.)
Triumphant, triumphant, joyous, raucous sex. Some virtue in it, to accept that the people who touch our core in sex are not always the ones to shack up with, the ones we love. But there is an enduring rapture: I adore fucking, fucking him, love how we fuck, love that he tells me that he loves how we fuck.
“You have a book here,” he says.
I’m fuck-drunk on this, this joy, this coming Fall. Fucked on possibility. Drunk on the moment. On the sort of pleasure that is all encompassing, that can exceed even one’s own capacity for pleasure, in a moment — can show you what you could be.
I fall in love with this possibility. Not people. I fall in love with the future.

Next week, we’ll be getting dolled up for our first awards ceremony as Sexerati, when I (tricky, eh, with the pronouns?) and my escort take to the de Young Museum to accept the San Francisco Bay Guardian’s Best of the Bay Award for “Best Sex Hacker” — ! (The de Young, by the way, has a great, if not problematic, show up right now, of Deborah Oropallo’s prints combining military & fetish imagery).
Gracious glory is the best kind, though, so here we are, to send you into the weekend with our current favorite sex hacker blogs, bringing the technology of pleasure to its filthy little knees. The future of sex is now, and here’s why:
• Boinkology is the brainchild of onetime Sexerati contributor (and longtime sex nerd galpal) Lux Nightmare, far exceeding its promise to be “Cute. Dirty. Smart.” Lux has been with the internet sex revolution from nearly day fucking one, and it’s a pleasure to still have, after all these years, somewhere this hot to read her.
• Being Amber Rhea, being, Amber Rhea’s chronicle of where sex culture and web culture do meet. She’s throwing the must-do sex & the internet event of the next 12 months, Sex 2.0, the first unconference devoted to sex, all with her super-smart, joyful, feminist & geeky approach.
• Shake Well Before Use, where Ariel Waldman, Twitterati & contributor to Suicide Girls’ newswire (which is actually really quite good, despite their sad approach to no-it’s-not-porn, yeah-right) blogs straddling sex, tech, and advertising. We hear both coasts may be competing for this girl right now; look out (and may the Left one win)!

Jessica Gold Haralson, newly of Nerve and longtime sex blogger, kindly requests the following:
Calling all librarians!
I am currently interning for the sex and pop culture magazine Nerve.com, and looking for the librarian folk amongst you who would be willing to be interviewed.
The interview would be for “Sex Advice From,” a popular series in which a select group of folks give their best advice about tricky sex questions. If you happen to blog, we’ll totally put up your links and publicize your projects in any way possible. If you don’t blog, that’s cool too!
Please e-mail jessica at nerve dot com ASAP if you are interested!
