Anarella Martínez Madrid

Anarella (She/They) is the founder of Sex School, now reimagined as XO—a platform built to give voice to sex educators, sex workers, performers, and beyond… who often go unheard. Her mission is clear: to create a space where conversations about sex, feminism, gender, and sexualities aren’t just welcomed but celebrated.

Anarella also works as an Intimacy Coordinator at Erika Lust, where she bridges the worlds of art, sex, and storytelling. Her path into sex-positive spaces began long before XO, driven by years of candidly exploring the intersections of sex, relationships, and emotional dynamics without hesitation or compromise.

XO isn’t about one voice; it’s about many. It’s a collaborative space where lived experiences hold as much value as academic credentials. Here, sex workers and educators come together to deliver content that’s real, inclusive, and practical—leaving behind shame and stigma to focus on what truly matters: honest, accessible sex education.

This is what XO stands for—a platform built for everyone, by everyone. No sugarcoating, just real conversations that matter.
