Embarrassed About My Big Clitoris

Hi Dr. Betty,

I'm a humongous fan of yours and you have completely changed my outlook on sex, love, and life in general. So thank you! I have a question for you. When I stand up with my legs pressed together you can see my clitoral hood quite easily, as well as my inner labia. It's all hanging out for everyone to see. Is this normal?

After My Vibe Can I have Manual Orgasms?

Hi Dr. Betty,

I've spent quite a bit of time reading your great posts. I still have a question, though, about orgasm with manual stimulation. I completely agree a woman should be able to bring a vibrator into any sexual encounter-- and I do-- but I would still really love to be able to orgasm without a vibrator. I'm 29 and have never been able to do this.

Am I forever addicted to the vibrator, or is there hope?

Thank you!
J

Dear J,

I Want to Be the One Initiating Sex but I Just Can't

Hi Dr. Betty,

I just discovered your website this week and have found it so informative and refreshing. I have been in a monogamous relationship for 3 years (I am 22) but have never been able to initiate sex myself. I was date raped during high school and only in the last couple of years have I really started to be more comfortable sexually.

How Do I Raise Sexually Open-Minded Children?

Betty,

I find your views spot on and full of clear guidance within the darkness of repression within and around us. To bring us further out of the darkness can you point to some articles or respond with your current thoughts on raising children so as to foster openness about sexuality and specifically the ability to accept and enjoy pleasure as adults later in life?

How Do I Stimulate My G-spot During Masturbation?

Hello!

I'm a twenty-year-old woman, and a big fan of yours. My first sexual partner and I drew a lot of inspiration from your videos and articles last year, and I must say you helped us have a delightful and pleasurable time as we discovered our sexualities together.

My question is about fingering myself! I just love it when partners finger me, using two in an up-and-down motion to really stimulate the inner wall of my clitoris. When I try to do that myself, my fingers get tired after just a few 'thrusts'! Is there a particular technique I should be trying?

What's the Best Lubricant to Use with the Sponge or Diaphragm?

Dear Dr. Betty,

I have been an avid follower of DodsonAndRoss for a couple of years. I would love to say that the work you and Carlin are doing spreads so much good into the world that it is beyond words!  I have been sexually active for about 6 months with my lovely boyfriend and we have been using condoms for most of that time.

As Soon as He Starts Touching Me I Start Panicking

Hello Betty,

I'm a twenty-two year old woman and I have a problem and I was hoping you could push me in the right direction.

I've always had a fairly sexual mind. I know what I like, what sort of things get me off, and so on. I don't have any problem penetrating myself or bringing myself to an orgasm. But I've noticed a different problem that I can't seem to fix by myself.
