I’m truly a southern girl at heart. I like to fill my time outdoors hiking, walking my dog, practicing yoga, or in the summer I like to go out on the lake here in Georgia.

Are you friends with a sex worker? Here’s what being a bestie - and an ally - really means.

Personally, I don’t get offended by genuine curiosity, even if the question is annoying or cliché. However, when someone asks me, “What’s the craziest thing you’ve done?” my response is usually a pretty dramatic and dismissive eye roll.

Clinical psychologist and sex therapist Dr. David Ley has long been critical of the sex addiction framework, and wrote the book The Myth of Sex Addiction to explain why. I sat down with him to explore why sex addiction is a problematic concept, and how it contributes to whorephobia.
