Growing up in Denver with a large, complex family, Adé got an early education in sex when they discovered their parents banging it out on the washing machine. During adolescence, Adé explored with both boys and girls and discovered very different reactions when adults discovered the experimentation. Luckily, an early sexual relationship with a neighbor, Quentin, became a safe, lasting partnership when it came to exploring sex. After an unimaginable loss, Adé started to use sex as a distraction. A move to Seattle inspired a new start in learning how to integrate sex into relationships instead of just meaningless hook ups.

Adé asked to give a signal boost to Seattle’s own Black Lives Matter organization. Learn more at: https://blacklivesseattle.org/ 

Cliff Notes: In case any of you don’t know who Taylor Dayne is, she was an 80s pop diva with a big voice and a few club hits to her name, including her biggest hit, Tell It To My Heart.
