									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I will just mention two things that stood out for me. The bath tub running water masturbation &#8211; I did that too. The ageless orgasm including after hysterectomy &#8211; I have the same experience: My orgasms have become &#8211; much! &#8211; better with age.</p>

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An orgasm is the release that comes after a build up tension in the clitoris system. For me it feels like a bodily relaxation combined and/or followed by a broad spectrum of &#8220;within-feelings&#8221;, often but not always connected to pleasure.

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For me it has been important to distinguish between the clit-stim I like for arousal and the clit-stim I like for orgasm. Knowing the difference has slowed me down. If orgasm is my goal, I forget the part that really arouses me &#8211; and that is often the most pleasurable part and definitely the part that is needed if I am hoping for a full body orgasm.</p>

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My experience is that menopause has been the best thing happening. It has truly been a time to reflect and transform. I have had no physical complications. No changes in my lubrication. No problems with penetration. No hot flashes &#8211; only, as Betty calls them, some smaller &#8220;heat orgasms&#8221; and every time they happen I just welcome them. I know I am lucky.</p>
