SEX ON THE HILL / THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2010 / THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN / KANSAN.COM
Note from the editor
I talk about sex a lot. Consider it an occupational hazard. The other day I found myself sitting in Chipotle, discussing orgasms over the phone. Six months ago, I would have been mortified, but now it's just part of my job.
part of my job. Editing Sex on the Hill has prompted some of the most uncomfortable conversations of my life. But it's also forced me to get over my hang-ups about sex. Now I can discuss just about anything without blushing.
blushing. That's the beauty of Sex on the Hill. It makes people talk about sex. This issue has plenty of information about protecting yourself from STDs and unplanned pregnancy, but there's more to healthy sexuality than just that.
just that.
Part of the college experience is figuring out what we like, who we like, and how we like it — and how to nagivate the tricky social situations that surround our sex lives.
So in addition to the medical stuff, you'll find stories about sexual identity, relationships, hooking up, abstinence, the "walk of shame," and even a sexy-time playlist.
To have a healthy sex life, you'll need to get comfortable with your sexuality. Openly discussing tough topics — even if you have to giggle through it — is the best way to over come sheepsinishment. I hope something in this issue gets you talking.
