If I take my time, I can work up to larger glass dildos or partner sex. When my body is ready, penetration deeply relaxes my whole pelvic area.

It is also significant because it can bring either great pleasure or great discomfort. It can also signify the potential for pregnancy, in the case of penetration with a penis.

Penetration is something I have spent a lot of mental and emotional energy worrying about in this…Read more

Each step in the ritual process leads participants deeper into relaxation, self-confidence, knowledge, and arousal needed for orgasm. I think one very important piece of the Bodysex structure is erotic recess (i.e. the orgasm part) in the…Read more

No matter how long it takes or no matter what you have experienced in life, you can still find pleasure within yourself. Our orgasm will meet us where we are when we remember that pleasure is our birthright.

It actually comes from the body, from activation of pleasure centers in the physical genitals. The mind participates, but is not the primary driver of orgasm.

It helps to create a map of sensations when you have an understanding of the parts or aspects of your anatomy. It decreases confusion and t…Read more

In many ways there was a high degree of unconditional love involved that was spiritual— an amazing degree of acceptance about myself and other people without judgments.”

Even just a few days a week would make a huge difference.

I have tracked it through hormonal changes, exercise changes, and stretching routines. It seems to be an ailment that responds to perimenopausal symptoms. I spent a year letting the pain dominate my perception of myself and preventing me from exercising. It got so bad that I couldn’t walk…Read more

I felt ashamed when other girls would comment on it in the locker room or sleepovers. “Grooming” has remained a source of stress and shame, as it feels like I can never get it right: grooming my pubic hair makes it too course, leaving it wild creates a huge curtain over my…Read more

The time spent nude helps to slowly address shame, fear, and sadness about our bodies and gradually bring in acceptance and comfort…Read more

This trait completely shut down my true orgasm, which is often very loud and devotional. I will praise the Great Mother and/or my partner as I rise to climax. It took time to adjust to my true nature and the devotional frenzy the process of orgasm puts me in. On a good day,…Read more

I began having migraines at age 10 and then horrific menstrual cramps at age 12. I developed the belief that my body was something the self had to survive, not enjoy. And I believed that all of my physical pain was my fault. It has taken…Read more

The head-shaving video and journal entry were revelatory for me. They demonstrated how Betty continuously created spaces where women were free to be stripped down to their raw power and essence. And I loved the phrase “Betty’s Orgasmic Army” in the Ms. obituary. It really does feel th…Read more

What struck me was the process of something being worked on and reflected on internally that then was expressed externally. The red ink drawing of the vulva, the fluid, and the tongue is just breathtaking. It shows the process of development from the pleasure of the…Read more

Her delivery is so honest and the audience is absolutely captivated. There is such an incredible contrast between her appearance and demeanor and the women in the audience watching her. And that story is one of the most devastating personal…Read more
