Hi Dr. Betty,

Earlier this year I discovered bumps on my outer lips. I was told by the nurse practitioner that they were genital warts. She treated them, they went away, and since then I have not had another recurrence even though I have been under immense stress since then due to work/family issues. I have not really wanted to date/have sex with anyone since because I don't want to deal with the conversation of letting someone know if they have sex with me they will be exposed to genital warts.

Dear Dr Betty,

Hi Betty,

I'm a big fan of your website and of your work (I have both your books!) and I'm always coming up with questions to ask you. The question I have for you today is in regards to this really awful episode of the Tyra Banks Show that my boyfriend and I stumbled upon on youtube. We were looking up videos about Sasha Grey, the new porn star, who has a new (mainstream) movie coming out and we came across an interview of Sasha on the Tyra show.

These are some of the responses I received after penning my essay Fucking Like a Feminist where I posed the question: What does fucking like a feminist mean to you?

Dear Dr. Betty,

Dear Betty and Carlin,

First of all, let me say you two women are so incredibly beautiful and inspiring. I have just discovered your podcasts, and they are so funny, and i cannot help cracking up when you do. Stunning people.

Dear Betty,

My dear husband and I were having some fun this afternoon. My question is that when he orgasmed, I was working my PC muscles at the same time which caused him to start laughing uncontrollably. He said it was because the sensation was very intense. He was laughing so hard it made me laugh too. It was a fun experience but one I've never had before. I would like to have a laughing orgasm, seems like it would be a double release. It was fun and a little weird to watch my husband though. Have you ever experienced anything like this?

Thanks!

Dear L,

Dear Dr. Betty,

I am a 27 year old women that's been in a monogamous relationship for 10 years. I have 2 children and I have my tubes tied. For the past 5 years now I have had sexual urges that I can't explain. I have always enjoyed sex, for a women in today's society a little more then most. I have noticed 3 days before my Diva Week starts and about 1 week after I am as Horny as a 16 year old boy.

Dear Betty,

I am 21 and have never been able to reach climax alone or with a partner. I can ejaculate quite easily though, but i worry that its caused from some kind of pressure build up that triggers my bladder as opposed to arousal, as when it happens I don't feel any closer to orgasm and instead just fear it actually is urine. Can this happen? Is it actually ejaculating that with lead up to orgasm?

Hi Dr. Betty!

I am 22, and I have had an orgasm a few times before (thank you magic wand), but only when I let go and not think about whether I am having an orgasm. Last week I started using the magic wand by spreading my legs with my feet on the floor and I had what really felt like an orgasm, but I am confused – so many women talk about their clitoris being super super sensitive after. Mine isn’t really sensitive, after the orgasm (or what feels like it), the magic wand is still going and technically it feels good but I just want to stop for a moment. Is this unusual?
