Washington, DC (PRWEB) June 15, 2009 -- Launching today, SexReally.com (http://www.sexreally.com/) is a new online destination for 20-somethings focused on relationships, love, sex, contraception, pregnancy, and related issues. Sponsored by The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy (http://www.thenationalcampaign.org/), the site is a place where young people can tell their stories, discuss relationships, and learn more about avoiding unplanned pregnancy.
"At present, seven in ten pregnancies among single twenty-somethings are described by women themselves as unplanned," said Sarah Brown, CEO of The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy. "This startling fact is an untold story and suggests that many young people simply are not thinking carefully enough about relationships, sex, and contraception--or the very real risk of unplanned pregnancy. We hope that SexReally.com (http://www.sexreally.com/) (www.sexreally.com) will, in an engaging and authentic way, help people think critically about these important issues."
SexReally.com provides many opportunities for young adults to interact with and learn from each other. With a commitment to being amusing and entertaining, the site seeks to foster conversations about intimate relationships and to address major gaps in young adults' knowledge about the reality and probabilities of pregnancy, the use of contraception, and many other closely related topics. The site will feature guest bloggers and illustrators in the months ahead, and will also include polling, videos, and other content.
The flagship offering of the site is a blog and podcast series hosted by Laura Sessions Stepp, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist formerly of The Washington Post who has written for 15 years about young people and relationships. The podcasts will feature first-person stories on topics such as starting a relationship with sex and the "problem" with nice guys.
"SexReally will not tell visitors how to think but it will give them something to think and talk about," promises Stepp. "We consider this a sex site for the brain."
In addition to Stepp, the two other initial primary contributors to the site are twenty-somethings who want to spark conversation among their peers:Kicesie Drew (http://www.youtube.com/user/kicesie), a top 100 Internet celebrity whose videos on sex and related topics have been viewed more than 100 million times on YouTube, and Danny Rouhier (http://www.funnydanny.com/Home_Page.html), a NYC-based comedian.
"I fit into the middle ground with no agenda and no message other than, 'Hey everyone, here's some information about sexuality if you're looking for it.'" said Drew. "I just want to get people thinking about sex and never jump into something they haven't had time to understand and prepare for."
According to Lawrence Swiader, Director of Digital Media at The National Campaign, "There is really nothing like SexReally.com available for young adults. Most sites that deal with these issues fall into one of two camps: if the site is authoritative, it tends to be boring; if it's engaging, it's often uninformed. We hope that SexReally.com strikes the delicate balance between being a destination that 20-somethings will actually want to visit and being a source of credible information that people can trust."
