Sexuality.org
An incredible site that was originally started by a student organization at the U. of Wash. Be sure to check it out!

Dr. Ruth Online
I have often wondered whether Dr. Ruth would have garnered such acceptance and popularity if she wasn't a tiny, older woman with a foreign accent. Regardless, this site is sure to be popular, even it is somewhat limited. Some good advice, especially about safer sex, but mostly a giant ad for a mediocre CD-ROM.

Alt Sex
Not the newsgroup - but an organization devoted to sex education! Contains lots of great information and links!
