Have you heard about Karma Pervs? Here, I’ll let Jiz Lee tell you:
What is Karma Pervs? In a nutshell: It’s a porn fundraiser. I choose a charity each month – members see sexy photos for a good cause! I post a unique photo set of pictures related to the cause and at the end of the month 100% is donated to the organization. Sign up to support, see pictures, and also enter to win great prizes!

When I first started trolling the internet seeking sex, as one does, I started to notice that next to all the “18+” enter buttons were these little “Underage” exits which linked to Scarleteen.com.
Despite the fact that I didn’t want to “exit” (I mean, who really does that?) I nonetheless found myself curious and clicked over to Scarleteen a number of times over the years. And I still click over, even though I am no longer a youth. A comprehensive sex resource, it’s a great place to explore and learn. This year I also bought two copies of the book S.E.X. by Scarleteen founder Heather Corinna, for my teenage brother and sister, which includes the passage: Genderpalooza: a Sex & Gender Primer.
With all of the devastating news of suicides of gay/gender-variant teens throughout the country, I feel stronger than ever that our culture needs better sex ed — that youth would be well-equipped with knowledge about sex and gender through a sex-positive education which doesn’t shame or ignore minority sexualities or gender expressions. Through online actions by the sex community, including projects such as Sex Columnist Dan Savage’s It Gets Better YouTube video channel project, and The Trevor Project Hotline, National media has picked up the stories. This is a great stride in the effort, considering the statistical average of teens use of the internet and of television consumption. Many people believe what they see, so the more we affirm queers, the more our lives are validated. [snip]
Artists for the update include:
Kira Scarlet, Jeffer, Henri “Ace” Cheramie, James Dale, Paige, and Suzanne Forbes (who drew images of me and co-star Papi Coxxx while we filmed a scene!). Thank you artists!
Expect to hear much more from me about Scarleteen in the upcoming weeks. Heather Corinna is putting together a blog carnival focusing on the importance of comprehensive, progressive sex-ed.
Want to participate in the carnival by writing a post of your own? I’d love that! Email me!
