Alt.sex
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- The correct title of this article is alt.sex. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.
The creation (c. 1988) of the Usenet newsgroup alt.sex is probably due to the Usenet backbone cabal. Originally due and voted to be assigned rec.sex, it was the cabal's insistence that got it titled alt.sex.
As of March 22, 2005 the alt.sex hierarchy contained over 1,600 groups. There has been little activity, other than spam, in most of those groups for some time. A notable exception is the alt.sex.stories hierarchy.
This entry should not be confused with a web site with a similar name (alt.sex.com) commonly called alt.sex.
