About Sex and Psychology and Dr. Lehmiller
Sex and Psychology was created in order to share the science of sex, love, and relationships in a way that is informative, engaging, and accessible. It is departure from most other sexual advice websites, which are run by self-proclaimed experts who base their information largely upon their own personal experiences and beliefs. This is not a personal, opinion-based blog; rather, each article on here is rooted in science and cites or links to the original research sources. The goal is for readers to learn responsible information about sex and relationships and to correct the numerous myths and misconceptions that actively harm our sexual health and well-being.
