Since I wrote my book “Naked on the Internet,” one of the questions I get asked in just about every interview is: how did you get interested in this topic? And sometimes I draw a total blank when I try to respond, or I just want to say, “duh – cuz it’s awesome.”

In this video, I show how to make a dental dam with your teeth. This is a video reponse to Amber Rhea’s How to Make a Sex 2.0 Condom Into a Dental Dam.

This weekend, as you may have notice from my obsessive live blogging and tweeting, I was at the Women, Action and the Media conference in Cambridge.
