Animal Roleplay: Lee Harrington highlights the great varieties in this 11-minute video on animal role play. There are the many types of animals (ponies, horses, puppies, dogs, kittens, cat, pigs, hogs, and many other non-mammals as well), and a great diversity within each animal (shapes, sizes, personalities, etc.). Lee notes why people play as animals and encourages you to communicate to your partner what you want to do in character. Plus, he discusses important topics such as language, physicality, naming, food, etc. Enjoy a whole new world!

Safer Magical Sex: Lee creatively uses the physical safe sex analogy to explain the protection of our emotional selves within a variety of sexual encounters. Just as we can share (or block) bodily fluids during sex, we can also share (or block) the positive (personality traits, luck, etc.) and negative (sapping of life, bad habits, etc.) energies with those to whom we relate. This 9-minute video helps you consider what types of emotional barriers will best help prevent energetically transmitted diseases in your relationships.

Intricate Head Harness: You are just 8 minutes away from a surprisingly easy, yet beautifully complex head harness! Lee Harrington demonstrates how to create this harness with parachute cord (or thin, silky rope), and he offers many tips (how to avoid rope burn, work with long hair, etc.) as well as explains several safety issues (piercings, glasses, etc.). Enjoy making your masterpiece!

Oh yeah, and it’s poorly lit

What is Pain?: What is Pain? How do we respond to pain? These are just two of the questions Lee Harrington addresses in this 7-minute video.
