Dear Betty,
First of all, thank you for your work, it helped me to recover my sexual self after psychological trauma during my childhood, which stripped me of my sexuality up until I was 20. I had to teach myself how to masturbate at the age of 19, and slowly I became able to orgasm with partners, and enjoy my casual and non-casual sexual adventures through and through. I find sex to be a fun thing to do, I take care of my needs, I love pleasing my partners, I love to show them and tell them what turns me on, I love fucking and making love, I love to shag men and women equally.
Hello Doc Betty,
I'm a 23 year old girl who loves self-pleasure but has never had penetrative sex. I hate using the term 'virgin' because of the image it carries. You say "Virgin", and the first thought that comes to mind is a naive girl who knows nothing about herself, her body, or her desires and simply waits in angst for her "dream" man to show her the wonderful world of ecstasy and pleasure. I'm ashamed to admit it now but, for a long time I did have that mindset. It's sad really, to think that so many females think that pleasure comes only from a partnership. While partnership isn't something I'm against, I've simply opted to not have penetrative sex because I don't feel as if I need to at the moment.
Hey Betty,
I would really like to thank you for this amazing website. I discovered your podcasts/website and fell in love. I am consistently inspired by you and Carlin both!
I am a 19 year old female who is just starting college. I have been masturbating since I was in the 2nd grade or earlier, but at the time was not aware of what I was doing. Later in my teens, I gained some awareness. I am also rather hyper-sexual which is odd because I have very minimal experience. My first sexual experience was with oral sex a couple of weeks ago with a guy who has since told me that he can't be in a relationship at this point in his life. I am afraid that he backed away after learning that I am a virgin.
Dr. Betty,
I'm a 22-year-old virgin and have been suffering from manic depression for half of my life. Four years ago I fell into my deepest depression and developed a mild form of agoraphobia. While going through trial and error with different meds, I was constantly depressed and anxious and I discovered one thing that made me feel better: masturbation and porn. (You probably see where I'm going with this.)
Hello,
So I just started to have a sexual relationship and before the first time me and my partner had sex I had amazing orgasms every time he fingered me or performed oral. And ever since the first time we had sex, which was about a month and a half ago I haven't been able to orgasm. I feel very comfortable with him, and I don't feel guilty about losing my virginity at all. I have started to try masturbating, I have never tried until now, so that I can learn about what I like.
And I can feel an orgasm coming on and then I lose it. I don't understand, am I not allowing myself to be turned on enough? I've been trying really hard to turn off my brain and just focus on how things feel, but it still isn't helping.
Dear Betty,
I discovered your website a couple months back and think that it is great that you are making sex positive information available to people on the web.
I am a 21 year old male who has been diagnosed with a few different mental disorders that make it difficult for me to interact with other people. Naturally this has made it so that I don't have very much experience with women. I've been going to therapy for a couple of years now (not taking any meds) and now feel genuinely ready to pursue a relationship with a women. The only problem is that being as old as I am women expect me to be more experienced or confident than I really am.
Hello -
I'm in my mid-30s and have only had one partner. Recently, we decided to explore and participated in a couple threesomes with 2 men. The result? I absolutely loved it. I loved being the center of attention and now I find myself going online everyday figuring out who's next on the Rolodex! I don't know what it's done to me, but I have never been desired by an adult male, during my adult years, and maybe that is what I find so sexy and thrilling. As for the marriage, sex has never been better. Our experiences have turned us both on and further ignited our already sexually active lives.
Dr. Betty,
First of all, let me thank you for the fabulous information you have on this site. It's truly amazing.
I did a search on the site, and unfortunately, I couldn't find anything on this topic. You see, I'm a rather petite woman, only 5'2"... However, for some reason, I like having my cervix stimulated vigorously during sex. This wasn't always so, and it started developing after I had my children.
Hi Dr. Betty,
I started having sex when I was 17 and it was always an extremely stressful and painful experience for me. I went on to have painful sex for a year until I found an amazing physiotherapist who diagnosed me with vaginismus. With her help I was able to overcome my vaginismus and experience full and non painful penetration. Even though now it may not be painful, it certainly does not feel good. It doesn't feel like anything! I have never been able to have an orgasm and I have zero sex drive. I remember that before I began trying to have sex when I was 17 I was able to get turned on (never could reach orgasm though)
Hi Betty!
How are you? I hear you're talking on some Irish radio show. I'm very excited and would love to know which one so I can listen. Imagine Betty Dodson in IRELAND!!! I'm stunned and delighted!
I was going to write to you anyway to ask what you think about something. I can't find any help here as of yet (or online) for this problem that a man has contacted me with. His English is not great and we haven't met yet as I want him to go and have all his bloods tested before we start working together. But I'm not sure if there are any blood tests he should have that are not within the usual. That's the first thing.
Dear Betty and Ross.
First of all I would like to say that I love you both. For your work and honesty about a subject so deeply covered with lies and misconceptions and at the same time so intrinsic of human nature.
If this letter should have a title, I think this one is appropriate: "Men are all about their dicks…"
Yes I am. Let me explain by telling a little bit about myself.
I am a Brazilian male 30yo, married, no kids.
I'm recently married but we've been together for 12 years now. Sounds crazy I know and it is a little. But she is the best person I know and I still love her very much.
Dear Betty,
I have written in several times over the last couple years and you have always been a wonderful inspiration to my wife and I and we have both learned much from you. She, as I have stated in the past, doesn’t have as much time as I do to read through your site so I have taken the abundance of things I have learned from you about women and have helped my wife in many ways. However, this email has a different intent than the flattery of you and your magnificent work.
Hey Dr.Betty!
So I am a 15 years old female and I have been trying to have masturbation lately to feel pleasure the safe way! I was using an electric toothbrush with a plastic bag over it to massage my clit. ( obviously I don't use the tooth brush on my teeth) anyway I'm not sure if what I was feeling was an orgasm or not.
At first the sensation felt kind of irritating but in a good way if that makes any sense! But I didn't want to stop. I kept it on my clit for a few minutes moving it around and all of a sudden I felt this extra energy and I started breathing heavy. It felt so good and I wanted to stop and not stop at the same time. But obviously I didn't want to stop more. Was this an orgasm? It was short but felt great. Also do you think I'm too young to be masturbating?
I received this thank you card from the NWHN interns and had to post it. Here's my email exchange with Executive Director Cindy Pearson:
Hey Cindy,
I'm very proud of the work that you and NWHN is doing. Finally I'm approaching the set up of the Betty Dodson Foundation. Like most of us dealing in good causes, we are all fighting to keep the lights on! But I do see a time when I will be able to contribute to my friend's good works. These are some challenging times but we all manage the best we can.
Thank you for sending this along. I loved it!
Happy O's
Betty
Hi Dr.B!
It's me again. Not sure if u get so many emails that u forget the names but I've submitted numerous questions to you, and they've all garnered wonderful answers. So here goes nothing. Yesterday my family and I made a 2 1/2 trip (one way) to an ice sculpture exhibit. The ENTIRE trip there my husband NEVER put his phone down. On the way home, same thing. I asked him if he had been facebook'n the whole time and he said no. But I could see he was interested in something. Just as a wicked grin played his lips I saw a very familiar feeling all over his face.
