Friend:ok. so i need you to tell me who can i date.
Me:um WHAT? are you choosing from a list of my exes or something? because if so, you can have all of them.
Friend:no, not a list of your exes. just, who do you know who i can date?
Me:who do i personally know? um, there is no one appropriate. everyone is gay or someone i've previously fucked or the person i'm currently fucking ... who YOU CAN'T HAVE.
Friend:clearly, i'm not going to take patrick
Me:the only guys i know are the guys i know biblically. there is no one i can recommend.
Friend:even if you can't recommend someone - you never went long without a date. how did you do it?
Me:i wrote a sex blog and was really indiscriminate, which is how i ended up dating a sociopath for two months, remember?
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".
