There are several media pieces coming out about the Bodysex Summit and Betty's life work. We didn't plan it but somehow interest in Bodysex, the certification program, Betty's 88th birthday and her upcoming episode on Broad City = some pretty amazing press.

“Betty started the dialogue by insisting that the clitoris is a woman’s primary sex organ,” says Ross. “Words like ‘masturbation’ and ‘clitoris’ trend with the release of her feminist classic Liberating Masturbation.”

Betty Dodson is equally optimistic and in 2016 declared the arrival of the next wave of feminism: the sexual wave. “We never really dealt with sex before besides birth control and abortion,” she adds. “Here comes the pleasure revolution.”
