We're especially excited to see that New York Times Magazine article on Kink.com we liked so much honored with a prize—though everyone who entered is still a winner in our book. Keep fighting the good fight, people! (sexies.org; also seen at aetoday.com)

A slippery fistful?), but it seems a cabal of the nation's most esteemed have convened in some secret fortress of sex-negative doom to create The Sexies: The 2008 Sex-Positive Journalism Awards. The superpower judges are heavy-hitters, ranging from sex educators like Carol Queen and Dan Savage to notorious pro-sex, pro-porn activists Marty Klein and Judith Levine, hopefully coming up with some sort of doomsday testes-shrink-ray to be used on the likes of Bill O'Reilly and his fundie fanboys. On the serious side, they're now taking submissions and donations, with 2007's winners to be announced next year. They explain "sex-positive journalism" in detail on their site, but we just want to know—do our random acts of sex-positive LiveJournalism count?
