Some of my sexiest online friends and colleagues are celebrating in New York tonight with the 2010 NYC Sex Blogger Calendar Release Party at Fontana's, 6:30-9:30. Sales of the $20 calendar benefit Sex Work Awareness, a non-profit advocating for the rights of sex workers (see mission statement below).
The calendar features sex bloggers Abiola Abrams, Audacia Ray, Calico, Desiree, Diva, Elizabeth Wood, Jamye Waxman, Lucy Vonne, Melissa Gira Grant, Mia Martina, Mina Meow, N, Nikol Hasler, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Sinclair Sexmith, and Tess (most of those links click through to blissfully NSFW content, so be warned).
Sex Work Awareness Mission Statement
We believe that all sex workers have a right to self-determination; to choose how we make a living and what we do with our bodies.
We aim to empower our diverse community by building the capacity of sex worker-serving and sex worker member-based institutions as well as the skills and resources of sex workers themselves.
We also conduct research about sex workers and the sex industry in order to better understand it, develop public education initiatives, and advocate for the rights of sex workers.
