Well known for his fun and informative approach to education, Lee Harrington has been an active part of the international kink and sex positive communities for over 15 years. He believes everyone deserves a great sex life and is passionate about anything that opens people up to their full potential. In pursuit of this goal, Lee has traveled the globe teaching and talking about sexuality, psychology, faith, desire, trans issues, open relationships, and more.
