[edit] About this project

Welcome. This WikiProject is a group of editors working together on articles about sexology and human sexuality. We want these to be at the level of the best articles on Wikipedia. Articles must be factual, from a neutral point of view and not censored. Please join us.

We also try to reduce edit wars, reverts, redirects, and AfDs. Proposals can be posted below, with proposals followed by votes for and against.

  • To be manually moved to article's talk page or deleted:
  • Lesbianism in erotica, while in pretty good shape, is still in need of expansion in several places, as noted on the "To Do" list at the head of Talk:Lesbianism in erotica. Notably, the article really needs material on lesbianism in erotic literature, a topic on which I'm out of my depth. Iamcuriousblue 00:07, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Top and bottom in sex and BDSM needs work. See the talk page for a TODO list. It's a merger of 9 earlier pages; I've done a fair amount to make it work well, but the BDSM part will need significant editing to be smooth. It also needs expansion; see the TODO list again for that. --Sai Emrys ¿? ✍ 19:11, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
