Hi Betty

I have recently ended a relationship with a man 36 years older than me. We were together for a short time in the world of relationships probably around 4-5 months. For the first time with him I was able to have a clitoral orgasm through intercourse, it only happened twice but it was amazing to know that it can happen.

Hi Dr. Betty:

Hi!

I'm 17 years old and I'm from Brazil, so chances are my English is not very good, sorry about that. So I've done sex for the first time last year. At first I didn't know very well what I was doing, but after searching a little (and finding your videos) things got much clearer for me. It took me some time and self discovery to be able to have an orgasm and it felt great. But then I tried having sex after smoking pot and it felt like ten times better.

Dear Dr. Betty

I'm not a teen anymore, but I live with my parents. Unfortunately I don't believe they understand I have sexual needs as an adult because they still see me as a kid (because I'm still an University student and I never dated anyone before) so they wouldn't accept the fact that I do masturbate and need sex toys.

Thing is, I'm too shy to go to a sex shop all by myself and I can't order online because of my parents.

What can I possibly do? Thank you so much.

Dear A,

Hello!

First of all: this is a wonderful page and I already read and found a lot of really helpful things.

Hi there!

Dear Dr. Betty,

I am a 20 year old engineering student. For the last two years I have been unable to orgasm when having sex or mutually masturbating with my lover. I can only orgasm alone. This has taken a negative toll on my lover's self-esteem. Lately I have wanted sex less despite having just acquired our own space to play, and he told me that he is now feeling unloved. I think I am turning myself off, before and during sex, with my body image and an unhealthy sexual/romantic upbringing. I just do not know where to start tackling these issues.

Below is a recent question I received from a young woman.  I'm noticing that more and more women want to know "how can I stop ejaculating?"  So I asked some of my friends - the experts - to weigh in:

Dear Dr. Betty,

First of all, sorry if my English is bad, my native language is Spanish. Ok, on with it.

Dear doctor Betty,

As you can see, the reason I'm sending this message is because I'm afraid of having sex and I would really appreciate a wise advise right now.
