Betty Dodson with Carlin Ross
Better Orgasms. Better World.
I went to Carlin’s yesterday. I thought we were going to work/talk as usual, but suddenly Carlin told me that she just received the second cut of the bodysex workshop and we were going to watch it.
I thought, "am I really going to watch the filming of the bodysex group?" Yes I was and so we did.
Whe it comes to sexual imagery, I've always found that the big difference between watching something produced in the US compared to something produced in Denmark was the authenticity the Danish production had and the American production lacked. Well, I guess you just need an authentic cast and crew, and that is what the bodysex workshop had.
There’s so much authenticity, so much honesty, and then there are real women! No 3 hour airbrush make over, no liposuctions, no “oh no we can’t show that, that looks like real skin”… I loved every minute of it. Loved loved loved Betty in her right element!
During the “genital show and tell”, all I could think about was when I would get to show this to a high school class in Denmark! This is what a real pussy looks like, boys and girls! The power of sexual images that aren’t pornography...the importance of sexual images that aren’t pornography!
And yes, I cried. I was moved throughout the entire one hour and forty minutes, though it seemed more like ten minutes it was so captivating. And when Marisa had her cry-gasm, I was hit, and when Carlin started talking about how much this meant to her, it all got to me. It was beautiful. It was liberating. It was something, women!
Intern welcome to the site :)
Sexual love and sex is very important to us all and when it's misrepresented by society and media in a way that makes us feel inadiquate, that has a huge impact on our happiness. To discover the truth is on our side and how beautiful it is, makes me tear up as well.
For Betty . . . after many years
