NSRC News: healthy sexuality, delivered

Thanks to all of you who have rallied around Caster Semenya. Though her test results have been leaked--shamefully and inappropriately-- NSRC is staying focused on the IAAF in an effort to respect Semenya's privacy. Look for more on the subject once IAAF comes forward with a decision.

Sex:Positions. Your point of view

This week NSRC launches Sex:Positions, featuring the views of sexuality's leading voices. First up:

• Dr. Elizabeth Schroeder asks Obama to fund really comprehensive sex ed in Do the Math;
• Katherine Anne Forsythe looks at Sandra Day O'Conner's injudicious affection in Love Stories;
• Reverend Dr. Carlton W. Veazey , from the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, speaks up about the role of religion in  Sex and Silence.
