Good evening.<\/p>\n

I was sharing an old article from Sexuality.org<\/strong><\/a> with a photo subject today, and ended up reading the thing out loud to my friend here in Maine. I had a lot of fun doing that so I thought I would share it with you. The article is called Mixed Emotions<\/strong><\/a>; it’s from an old series called Organic Love<\/strong><\/a>. The topic is three-way sex. So too is the topic of my new entry in Book of Blue<\/em>, called Monogamy<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The series at Sexuality.org contains articles from about 1998 through 2002. When I post old articles about sexuality, I like to give a little caveat that I might say some things differently now; I know more, and I have evolved my language and thinking. But I am always happy to see that I am still true to the same basic ethos and that, in a sense, I was ahead of myself. The older stuff is also not in the style of personal narrative; I was not brave enough, or didn’t think I would be well received. I much prefer my new approach, only because it’s more fun and immediate. But my older stuff has a practicality to it; a bit of the how-to feeling, which is what I was going for.<\/p>\n

I still remember getting an email the first time the editor of Sexuality.org picked up one of my articles — called Coming to the Revolution<\/strong><\/a>, which I originally wrote for Rob Brezsny’s website (hi Rob!). It occurred to me: wow, somebody is taking my ideas seriously.<\/p>\n

This all being said, I bid you good night from a very lovely town on the sea.<\/p>\n

Love and lovingly,<\/p>\n
