The Frisky’s on revaluing “pink journalism:”
“I contacted Rachel Kramer Bussel, the erotica writer and editor of Best Sex Writing 2012, and asked what she thought about reputation and sex writing:”
“Sex is part and parcel of our lives and while it’s often treated as a ‘women’s’ topic, obviously it’s more universal than that. ‘Pink’ topics, especially sex, cut across journalism, and touch on everything from health to politics to sports to religion. Best Sex Writing 2012 features everything from a piece questioning the application of child pornography laws to a Village Voice story about men who prefer “fat chicks.” When I’m editing the Best Sex Writing series I look far and wide for approaches to sex that are smart and nuanced.”
