Who We Are

SGP was founded to support womxn and femmes as they explore their sexuality without shame, providing an open-minded, non-judgmental, and educational platform to promote sex-positive empowerment. We approach human sexuality through a vigorously sex-positive lens, and we aim to support all our readers and followers in their unique journey to overcome all forms of sex-based shame, whether it’s slut-shaming, body-shaming, or kink-shaming. It is our mission to highlight an array of voices across genders and identities to provide a platform for women, femmes, and other folks to share their experiences, perspectives, and expertise.

Slutty Girl Problems’ Voice

We aim to create content that feels approachable, engaging, and from a unique perspective, all while taking a more high-level, philosophical, and nuanced approach to the complex cultural factors, upbringing, and intersection of identities that shape our sexual beliefs and experiences, and how those beliefs influence our lives, relationships, and expression. While we still value the edgy humor that defined our brand when it was first founded back in 2011, we now strive to take a broader look at sexuality and the systemic, cultural, societal, learned, and subconscious factors that influence how we frame and shape our own and societal perspectives of sexuality.

What kind of articles are you looking for?

SGP publishes think pieces, listicles, exploration pieces, and traditional articles, focusing on sexuality, feminism, activism, intersectionality, identity, dating, and relationships. We receive a huge number of submissions so please be mindful of the following before submitting your post or application. Here are some or our favorite concepts
