Hi Betty,

Hi Betty,

First of all, thank you so much for your website. Even with as liberal of a mother as I had to raise me, the down and out details of sex, and overall how-to's are hard to find.

Hi Betty,

I've recently started exploring your site and I want to thank you for creating such an open community. I wasn't raised to talk or even think about sex (not that my parents were strict or very religious--it just wasn't something anyone in my family ever discussed, and my parents are not openly affectionate with each other), and so I feel like I'm a little behind in terms of fully accepting myself as a sexual person who enjoys intimacy. But I'm working on it, I really am, and your site is helping me.

Dear Betty,

How come i can give myself back to back orgasms while masturbating but yet i pull away from my partner when he tries pleasing me. It feels awesome but before i can orgasm i pull away or push myself away from him like it feels so good i cant handle it, can you help me?

Dear S,

When we pull away from some form of clitoral stimulation it can mean

1. You have already had a small orgasm and the clitoris needs to calm down for a few moments before continuing.

Dear Dr. Betty,

I'm 20 years old and started having sex at 16. I'm not sure when exactly it started but I know it didn't happen the first time. Pretty much every single time I have or have tried to have penetrative sex it hurts and/or it tears just below the opening of my vagina. My boyfriend and I have tried more foreplay, lube, different positions etc. It only sometimes changes how bad the issue is not whether or not it happens.

Betty,

I have a question regarding nipple stimulation during masturbation. First allow me to give you a quick background on my wife.

Dear Betty,
