Lena Chen

is a reluctant sexpert, a feminist and queer advocate, and a walking case study on bad publicity. As a Harvard undergrad, she authored the blog Sex and the Ivy about her college sexcapades and misadventures. Her reputation has never quite recovered.

Sex Really with Lena Chen

A web series on healthy relationships and sexuality airing on the now-defunct SexReally.com, Sex Really with Lena Chen is an always honest, occasionally wacky, and (mostly) uncensored guide to everything going on in the bedroom. Check out episodes here and keep an eye out for a collaboration with the National Campaign To Prevent Teen & Unplanned Pregnancy on their latest venture, Bedsider.org.

gURL.com

gURL.com, Alloy Digital’s award-winning alternative web portal for tween and teen girls, relaunched its Health, Sex, & Relationships blog in Fall 2010 with Lena as their head blogger. She gave gURLs the hook on hooking up via a combination of blog posts, videos, and advice columns. In January 2012, Alloy Digital will debut “Sexy Times With Lena Chen”, a new web series in which Lena answers love and sex questions from everyday gURLs.
