So, you want to be a sexologist... (part 1)

I love being a sex researcher: I have no dull days! People with new ideas email to share them and ask questions. People with sexual problems call for help (or re-assurance). Law enforcement ask for trainings on better ways to prevent sexual abuse. Activists (of all persuasions) blog and tweet about whatever either agrees or disagrees with their political goals. (How often do you meet people who are neutral about a sexual issue?) And, of course, there is the natural fascination we have for the material itself. As my father would say,

“If you’re going to think about sex all day anyway,

you may as well get a job at it.”
