Philosophy and Core Beliefs

Bodysex Philosophy

Bodysex is a process designed by Betty Dodson, Ph.D to help women better understand their bodies and sexuality. There is no failure. We pull back the layers of shame, guilt, misinformation, and trauma to reveal our true sexual selves. Women have the most sophisticated sex organ on the planet, capable of endless pleasure. The clitoris is evergreen. It never ages and women can have orgasms until the end of life. It’s never too late to begin. To embrace the full capacity of pleasure, women need to understand basic sexual anatomy, find the parts that bring us to orgasm, and claim our bodies for our own pleasure.

The rituals practiced in Bodysex Workshops are designed to support women as they connect to their bodies, heal shame, and move fully into pleasure. Bodysex Rituals are learned in an environment of compassion and support. All women in a Bodysex circle are equal. Participants share their own experiences first person. The workshop facilitator serves the group by holding the space and introducing the rituals. Every woman heals herself through the Bodysex rituals, sharing in the circle, and self-pleasure. The intimacy that is inherent in Bodysex often creates a feeling of sisterhood among those who have shared this space together. Pleasure exists for every woman and those with whom she chooses to share it
