It would be so great to bring the eSex Experts together and hear what they have to say about the landscape and culture.

I'd like to learn what the real sex advisers (like those mentioned in the panel description) have to say about how to evaluate a sex adviser. Every college paper has a sex columnist now; every alt weekly, every magazine, every website ... and most sex columns are advice, whether Q&A or not. Readers *expect* sex columns to be advisory -- my own column is intentionally NOT an advice column but that doesn't stop people from emailing me questions. This panel would be a good forum for learning what makes a person qualified to dispense advice and what signs we should look for to indicate when a column is for entertainment purposes only.

Oh, Regina, you get it! Everything you say is so very true. Thanks for your comments.
