stop describing a wedding day as the most important day in a woman’s life. I suspect that the very idea of a single most important day in someone’s life is absurd, but if it does exist, I’m sure “the day you got into Harvard” or “the day you found out your cancer had gone into remission” or, my personal favorite, “the day you had your first orgasm” would be closer to the top than “the day you showed off your $8,000 white dress signaling your make-believe virginity while binding yourself financially and emotionally to a man in front of a make-believe deity.” If I ever get married, it will damn well be the best fucking party in my life, the best accumulation of expensive gifts in a single day, but the most important day? I’m insulted.
I'm Lena Chen, a writer and media producer who's been called a "skank" (by Bill O'Reilly) and "a small Asian woman" (by The New York Times). My favorite part of my workday is the hate mail.
I got started blogging as an undergrad at Harvard, where I started the infamous Sex and the Ivy blog. My life and my Google results haven't been the same since. Nowadays, you can catch me online talking all things sex-related on Sex Really With Lena Chen, a webcast for Bedsider.org, and Sexy Times, a web series debuting in January 2012 on gURL.com. I have mixed feelings toward the portmanteau "sexpert".
