Sexuality
Call for Submissions

 

The next issue of Connectivity will focus on Sexuality. The submission deadline for this issue is April 30, 2003. Please submit your article, letters, poetry, etc by email to editor@forge-forward.org or by snail mail to PO Box 1272, Milwaukee, WI 53201

Sexuality is a core component of many adults’ (and teens’) lives. Whether we choose abstinence/celibacy or being sexual only with ourselves, or seek relationships with others (committed long term relationships, anonymous interactions, flirtations, long or short term "tricks"/"fuck-buddies", monogamous or polyamorous relationships), FTM+s/SOFFAs may approach sexuality differently than those who have no trans-involvement.

Issues we hope to cover in this issue include:

  • exploring our bodies - self love and sexuality
  • crusing and flirting
  • trans+ erotica
  • evolving and/or shifting sexual orientation(s)
  • changes in libido and/or sexual interest(s)
  • culture clashes of mixed orientation "expectations" (what people expect based on previous orientation experiences)
  • SM as a tool for expanding and exploring gender/roles
  • BDSM as a component of or full sexual identity
  • learning about non-trans male bodies
  • tools and tips for greater sexual satisfaction
  • negotiation with partner(s) - discussion of comfortable erogenous zones and mutual pleasure
  • sex clubs, segregated bars/organizations, and navigating only spaces
  • safer sex techniques and negotiation
