LOS ANGELES — #SexTalkTuesday has announced that “Edge Play” author Jane Boon will serve as special guest moderator for tomorrow’s edition of the Twitter-based chat show at 5 p.m. (PDT) which will focus on the topic of sex and kink in popular culture.
“We are beyond thrilled to have Jane return to #SexTalkTuesday. This is such a timely topic, as the themes of sex work and kink increasingly appear in our cultural zeitgeist,” said Angie Rowntree, producer of #SexTalkTuesday and Sssh.com founder.
Boon’s “Edge Play” is described as “where ‘The Big Short’ meets ’50 Shades of Grey,'” noted a rep. “Before diving into writing erotica, Jane studied technology and policy at MIT, and later received a Ph.D. in industrial engineering. Jane has also written for publications like The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg Businessweek, Time.com, McSweeneys.net and TravelandLeisure.com.”
Our first exposure to sexual content is often through popular culture, said Boon.
“I remember the first time I saw a Dominatrix on television, for instance. I was transfixed by her confidence and her clothes. A few years ago, I had the opportunity to play a Dominatrix on the Fox television show ‘Gotham,’ and the experience came full circle. I look forward to discussing those sizzling pop culture moments that inspire and intrigue.”
Rowntree added that many Sssh.com and #SexTalkTuesday participants “frequently bring up both the positive and negative portrayals of sex and the sex industry that they notice, so this segment will undoubtedly resonate with both fans and content creators.”
