Apr. 3rd, 2009 @ 12:22 pm Rewriting the sex question meme

Many people have pointed out that the sex question meme is in serious need of revision, so let's try revising it. I was going to be ambitious and do it all myself (HUBRIS, I HAZ IT), but then I realized it would be both better and more fun if it were a group effort.

By way of explanation, here are some of the problems that were raised about the meme:

- Heterocentric questions ("we know everyone is straight so have you done anything REALLY WEIRD like kiss someone of the same sex 'cause that's WEIRD").
- The questions just aren't that interesting, because they ask "have you done _____" instead of "why do you like _____" or "what's the best way you've found to _____."
- The preponderence of "have you done _____" questions give off a "tee hee, sex is so naughty and you're naughty if you like it!" vibe.

For reference, the old version )

And now, the new version! This is totally a work in progress.

Have at it! Let me know what else you'd like to add, delete, and change.
