Hello. My name is Erica, I'm 22, and I am currently a student at a college in Michigan. I signed up for this site just out of curiosity, but have found myself browsing more and more due to the wealth of knowledge that I feel I might be able to gain here. I will be getting my degree in Psychology (minor in Women's Studies) within the next 6-10 months hopefully, and am considering applying to a graduate school near Philidelphia to recieve my Masters of Education in Human Sexuality. I served for one year as a Sexual Health Peer Educator for our health center on campus, previously worked as a "Romance Specialist" at a couple's store specializing in marital aids (i.e. sex toys), and have been the moderator of the Sex & Dating forum for a message board website geared towards students at my university for almost 3 years now. While I do feel that I have a great amount of knowledge concerning sexual topics already, I know there is a lot more for me to learn. I am especially interested in learning more about lifestyles alternate to my own (especially that of gay men, since it would be difficult for me to ever experience that first-hand), and in general about the experiences, thoughts, and concerns of regular people like yourselves. I love to offer help and give advice in areas that I am knowledgable about, so don't ever hesitate to ask me to elaborate on anything that I may mention in one of the forums. One of my favorite things to help people out with is spicing things up in the bedroom, and I like to think that I'm quite good at helping people find the perfect toys/lotions/lubes/creams/etc. to do so. Thanks for reading through my rather lengthy introduction. I appreciate it. (Also... if you can't tell from my choice of avatar, Sue Johanson from the Oxygen Network is my Idol. I hope to be in her shoes someday)
Love that chin on Sue Johanson! Yes, your introduction is lengthy, but informative! Not a problem. Glad to hear that this site will be a help to your in your future vocation! Wish you great success! Welcome to LPSG, Swtnspycy !
Hey Erica, Welcome to the group. I too dreampt of getting my PHD in Sexual health/education, but settled on Abnormal Psych. Equally thrilling. Enjoy your time here, it is nice to have another pyschological perspective at times:biggrin1:
