| | Every year around this time I say to myself that I should write something about the top sexual news stories of 2011. I've avoided it so far in part because I'm not a journalist and don't think I'm really qualified to be deciding what's news and what isn't for anyone other than myself. I think I also avoid it because most of the time that story is presented as a sort of tidy wrap up to the year that was. I find myself at the end of each year more interested in what's left and what's missing. Which is why I spend most of my time compiling a list of sexual losses, those people who died in 2011 who worked around sexuality or gender. I feel like those year end lists (one of which you'll find below) are meant to tell us something about ourselves, or about the year some of us survived. And I never know quite what that is. I'm not completely immune though, and below you'll find the one year end list I have compiled since I started as the About.com Guide to Sexuality. Wherever you are on December 31st and however you may be marking the transition to 2012 I hope you are safe and with someone you love who loves you back. ~ Cory | | Sexual Losses 2011 Taking a moment to remember the workers, writers, academics, and icons that we lost in 2011. | Top Ten Sex Questions 2011 It's a completely unscientific exercise but this time of year I like to look back and see which sex questions seemed to stick most with readers. It's a skewed sample, but for what it's worth here are the most popular sex questions of 2011, follow the links to get the most popular answers. | Writing Your Sexual Story When poet and philosopher George Santayana wrote that "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" he probably wasn't thinking about sex. But I'd argue that it applies to our sex lives as much as anything, and while it might be uncomfortable or painful to look back, it's hard to know how much past events are controlling you without thinking about them at least a little. | | | | | Sexuality Ads | | | | Featured Articles | | | | More from About.com | | | | | | Living with Depression By obtaining the correct medical intervention and learning better coping skills, you can not only live with depression, but live well.
