FAQ
Am I a subject of some kind of study?
Absolutely not. This is an understandable concern so I will explain why twofold and hope my explanation comforts you when seeking my services. First, all social scientists are expected to adhere to a set of ethical standards when conducting research on human subjects. These standards are actually quite similar to the rules of consent for sex! The researcher must always have the participants informed consent, the participant has the right to withdrawal participation at anytime, and the safety and wellbeing of the participant are the responsibility of the researcher. On a strictly personal level, I would find it extremely unethical to turn you into a study subject without your consent. On a professional level, all researchers are suppose to have approval by ethical review boards. These boards are typically hosted by an institution funding the study like a hospital or a university and they serve like a type of ‘insurance’. No researcher in their right mind would conduct a study without pre-approval from a board. Tip: if you’re ever approached to participate in a study ask to see their ethical board approval. Since I don’t have any, I’m not conducting a study. Easy as that! :)
If you are interested in participating in a study then please visit this section of Dr. Justin Lehmiller’s website.
Are you a therapist?
Again, absolutely not. Therapists are specially trained mental health care professionals equipped with providing care and coping mechanisms for a variety of life situations. It is a legally protected title in most of the world and understandably so, therapists offer an invaluable service to our society! Although I have been trained in similar fields, my skills are of a different set. You may indeed find my services to be of therapeutic value, and if you do then I’m really happy for you! But that alone does not certify my services for said moniker. I am, however, more than happy to work in conjunction with your therapist if you would like to get us in touch.
Why sexology?
I love sexology for one simple reason: due to the interdisciplinary nature of it. One can find sexuality in virtually every academic discipline out there. The arts? Check. Humanities? Check. Sciences? Check. Having that one reference point to string together knowledge is absolutely beautiful and not a day goes by where I’m not grateful for that.
What are your interests in sexology?
While I certainly love sexology for all it has to offer, I do love me some specifics. They are including but not limited to… clinical sexology, penology, sexual and reproductive health, psychophysiology, evolutionary psychology, medicine (neurology & endocrinology), bioethics, philosophy, psychoanalysis, paraphilia, and cross-cultural sexuality.
What is your research?
I do not divulge all of this information for the sake of privacy but I will say that I wrote my masters thesis on the psychophysiology of female sexual arousal and desire.
Can I please have a face pic?
Unfortunately, due to the nature of my research career, I cannot post or provide face pictures. Which is such a shame because I am consistently told it is one of my best features ;) For reference I am frequently told that my celebrity doppelgangers are Natalie Portman, Leighton Meester, and Eliza Dushku.
Do you have a wishlist?
Yes :) You can check it out here: https://cleoharimsc.net/wishlist
With every gift I receive I send personalised pictures to the gentleman who gave it to me for his enjoyment and his enjoyment only.
Do you like to go on shopping trips?
So much so that I offer a special where if you take me shopping at a luxury boutique, then my time for that shopping trip comes free! I find this to be a fantastic ice breaker. We get to cozy up with each other while I feel pampered like the queen I am. After all, who doesn’t like a win-win? If you feel stuck on shopping ideas be sure to check out my wishlist.
Do you accept tips?
Tips are never expected but always appreciated.
