“Welcome to the Feminist Internet eXchange Hub! Make sure you come back tonight for some group sexting – public, autonomous, anonymous, group sexting!” we called to women as they stumbled in to explore our feminist internet exchange space at AWID Feminist Futures Forum: Building Collective Power for Rights and Justice. Sometimes they grinned and asked “what time!?”, sometimes their cheeks reddened and they looked away abruptly. Most were like – “Huh?”

The over fifty women who joined the fun were in for surprises. Surprises about who can really see their messages on a cell phone network. And for those who maybe had never sexted before, it broke down a few pre-conceived ideas they may have had about this much demonized form of sexual expression. Or not!

Inviting feminists to a public group sexting session generates a lot of expectations, and some people that came were just plain curious to see what it was all about, without actually participating.
