My user name is my real name, and I am a professional sex researcher.

Wikipedia is interesting to me for being a place that permits interaction between people who study sexuality systematically (in theory, anyway) and people who live it directly. I quickly learned after coming here that many of the sexology articles already contain references to the people and organizations that are socially or politically involved in their topics. So, a large portion of my edits are about adding information and references from the scientific literature.

Although neither my university nor my hospital are at all involved in what I do on Wikipedia, some information about my professional research activities and publications can be found on my university website, Dr. James Cantor. Any web search will reveal the rest. Of course, a web-search will also reveal pages about me by Andrea James (User:Jokestress), as well as pages about other sex researchers she doesn't like. I'm hoping she finds time to update it. I've done a lot since 2003, and there must be something she finds objectionable.

If you have a question about the literature on a wikipedia page about sexology, please feel free to ask if I can help.

A pledge

There is a set of three editors, Dicklyon, Jokestress, and me, who have at least a perception of a conflict of interest in a set of WP pages. Various editors disagree on who has how significant of a COI on what. In order to prevent whatever COI I might be perceived to have from effecting Wikipedia, I pledge not to edit article space of the pages listed below, and I invite both Dicklyon, Jokestress to do the same.

		When you came you were in all honesty destructive. Now you are a good editor with good knowledge of WP policies. You could have taken their enforcement personally. You could have been discouraged but you weren't. Thanks for staying with us crazy people. Hfarmer (talk) 12:26, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
