Dear Betty,

I have spent hours looking at your site and all the wonderful photos of genitals. I think every single picture aroused me. I particularly enjoyed looking at the penises and trying to imagine what they looked like as they were being rubbed and tugged upon during masturbation. I myself masturbated several times earlier today just looking at them. The pubic hair, the erections, and the head of the penis are particularly appealing to me. And seeing a man's hand wrapped tightly around the shaft of his penis excites me all the more.

Dr. Betty,

I was 20 when I lost my virginity. As a young girl, I was curious about the aching feeling I had experienced "down there." Mostly I was wondering how I could relieve that ache! Masturbation was not something my mom never told me about or anyone else for that matter. Talk about being out of the loop!

Dear Betty:

I check out your website quite often to profit from your good advice to people who have sexual problems. I also like that you keep up with national sexual politics. The right wing religious censors never give up, do they? Thank god for your vigilance.

Hi Betty,

I've been enjoying your website now for quite a while and recently came to the conclusion that it was about time to register with you.  I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments regarding masturbation.  As a regular devotee since I was about 10 years of age I can say from experience that it has given me much satisfaction and pleasure during good times and bad.

Dear Betty,

I love your website so much I decided I had to make a contribution in order to repay you for all the great information I have gotten from you. So I am attaching two photos of my pussy along with the following info suggested in your article HOW TO CELEBRATE YOUR CUNT about submitting my genitals for you ART GALLEY.

Dear Betty,

I am from Italy and my English is not excellent. When I found your website I read some of your articles and explored it through its sections. I immediately wanted to read your book "Sex for One," which I found really interesting (my husband bought it for me on my birthday).

I think the best thing you do, besides giving so much information about masturbation, is letting people know how unique they are... and yet similar.

Hi Betty,

Dear Betty,
I'm a student at a Southern university and I and my roommate love your website because you support masturbation with no reservations. We women need more Betty Dodsons. Many people still get so uptight when you even say the word "masturbation."

Dear Dr. Betty,

I am one of your star pupils. I say that because up until the age of 29 (I am 30 now), I was sure I would never have an orgasm.

I had my first sex with a boyfriend at 18. It was pretty messy and I had nothing but pain. I went on the pill and we got some lubrication so things went more smoothly but no sign of an orgasm for me. He had good cums and was a nice person so we went steady for 5 or 6 years. But during all that time I tried every position and even bought a dildo and one of those battery operated vibrators, still no orgasms for me.

Dear Betty,

I think I was playing with my pussy at age 5 or 6. I also remember my mother trying to distract me by taking my hand from my pussy and putting it on my teddy bear. That didn't stop me. At ages 7 to 10, I also remember Mother reminding me not play with my crotch. But she always said it with some amusement so I knew it was secretly OK.
