As a journalist I write primarily about sexual ethics, LGBTQ issues, alternative sexualities, and sex and technology. My work has appeared in outlets such as VICE, Time, the Guardian, the Independent (UK), the Globe and Mail, the National Post, and Aeon.
You can find a select list of my articles below.
You can watch Glenn Beck make fun of my piece on ecosexuality here.
