As we navigate midlife and beyond, our bodies change, our hormones shift, and unfortunately, many of us have been conditioned to believe that sexual pleasure naturally fades with age. Some of you may have never experienced true sexual pleasure at all. But here's the truth: pleasure is a right to all women, right now, in whatever season of life you're in. Understanding your body, your desires, and how to prioritize your pleasure is vital to your overall well-being.In this episode we're breaking down myths, tackling the realities of midlife sexual health, and empowering you with knowledge to enhance intimacy and confidence. Whether you're in a long-term relationship, dating again, or simply reconnecting with yourself, this conversation is about reclaiming your right to pleasure. We'll be exploring everything from the role of the clitoris, the impact of menopause on sexual function, and practical ways to embrace and nurture your sexuality for years to come. Dr. Laurie Mintz is a professor, author, speaker, and therapist. As an Emeritus Professor at the University of Florida, she teaches the Psychology of Human Sexuality to hundreds of undergraduates each year. She is the author of two popular books, both with published studies demonstrating their effectiveness: Becoming Cliterate: Why Orgasm Equality Matters and How to Get It (HarperOne, 2017) and A Tired Woman's Guide to Passionate Sex (Adams Media, 2009). Dr. Mintz gives presentations and workshops to professionals and lay audiences, including a TEDx talk nearing three million views. Finally, for over 30 years, Dr. Mintz has also maintained a small private practice, working with both individuals and couples on general and sexual issues.

IntroductionSo, you're curious about having a one-night stand. I'm glad you're here! I've had a few in my time; some very successful, some less so. Whether this will be your first one or you're a regular wondering how to make casual sex work better for you, I've compiled everything I know to write this ultimate guide to having the best one-night stands ever.The main difference in preparation depends on the sexes of the partners involved and whether it's going to take place at your house or theirs. Because I'm a cis-gendered female who mostly has sex with men, this article is geared towards heterosexual couples. But I hope that no matter the genitals of you or your partner, you'll find something helpful here. Let's dig in!Before: How To Prepare for a One-Night Stand* Find someone you're attracted to: If you're not attracted to this person, don't even bother going through with the rest of everything else. This night is about you having fun, not pleasing other people.* Set clear expectations with yourself: Decide what you want to get out of this night and if you have any clear boundaries. Do you want to have penetrative sex (penis in an orifice, either vagina or butt) with them? Where is this one-night stand going to take place? Do you want to stay over, or are you going to take your ass home in an Uber at 4 am?* Prioritize your needs first: I'm adding this here because I'm terrible at doing this. As soon as I find a guy who I want to have sex with, I lose all sense of my needs and life priorities. So, be realistic for a moment: Do you have anything you need to get done the day after your one-night stand? The point is to make sure you're caring for your general well-being and not just dropping everything for a random dude you will never see again.* Plan your sleep: There's evidence that women need more sleep than men. How well do you sleep in someone else's bed or having someone in your bed? Can you survive on three hours, or would you be better off with eight? Even if you don't know exactly because this is your first one-night stand, just take a guess, and then you'll learn whether you were right or wrong after the experience.* Set clear expectations with your partner: Communicate with them if you can. Plan where you are going to do this. If it's at your house, is your partner allowed to sleep over? Do you need them out of the house by 10 am so you can go to your yoga class?* Be honest with yourself about your true intentions: If you have feelings for this person and would like to have anything more than a one-hit wonder with them, stop right there. Having sex with them is not going to fix anything. Be sure to do the feelings check-in I've included below.* Plan your alcohol and drug intake: You don't want to be too drunk or high for your one-night stand. Know your limits. A couple of drinks is probably fine if you've eaten, but you do not want to be completely blackout. Bad things can happen, and you need to have your wits about you so you can get the hell out of there at a moment's notice. Plus, sex when you're super wasted is not very enjoyable.* Plan to meet somewhere where you feel comfortable: Don't schlep yourself across the city to a place you don't know. Make this person come to you, like to your favorite lively local bar, or go to a party together where you know a couple of people.* Consider using a highly effective form of birth control: I'm talking about an implant or an IUD, i.e., a coil. Whatever sex you have is going to be a lot more enjoyable when you're not worried about getting pregnant. I have the Hormonal IUD, which I love because it is super effective for preventing pregnancy for up to eight years, and it stops my painful periods, which is a faff that I don't want to have to deal with. If you're already using the pill for your “acne” or some other form of birth control, good for you!If the one-night stand will take place at your house, here are some other tips you might want to consider:* a) Prepare your sex toys & condoms: I'll get more into this later, but you'll want any vibrator, lube, butt plug, and fun stuff on hand. Be sure to have multiple condoms, at least three.* b) Wash your bedsheets, if possible: There's nothing like banging in a clean bed.* c) Have clean towels on hand: Some men I've had sex with will literally sweat through multiple layers of sheets. It's insane, and yes, your bedroom will be destroyed.* d) Have a bit of alcohol in your house: You may or may not want to keep a bottle of wine or beer on hand at home. I don't like to drink that much, but you and your partner might want to.* e) Tidy your house: This is totally optional, but this helps me have less anxiety, at least.If the one-night stand will take place at their house, this might help:* a) Pack the essentials: This might be hard depending on the size of your purse or bag, but see if you can bring your toothbrush, deodorant, a contact lens case (essential if you wear contacts like me), and maybe even a change of shirt for the morning after. You're not bringing your toiletries bag, just the bare basics so that you don't lose your mind.* b) Subtly bring a toy and condoms with you: You could bring a small bullet vibrator in your bag or invest in a Vesper necklace, which is a beautiful piece of jewelry that also doubles as a vibrator. Yay, secret pleasure! And also, stuff a couple of condoms in your bag.Before you proceed, do a feelings check-in.What if I have feelings for my one-night-stand partner?Be honest about whether you have feelings for this person before you have sex with them. I may sound old-fashioned, but my honest advice is: do not have a one-night stand with someone if you have feelings for them. You will just end up having your heart broken. Having casual, easy sex with someone is not going to make someone fall in love with you. In fact, the sex of the one-night stand is basically over in a minute, and that is the end. It's a quickie one-and-done.What if I'm not sure if my one-night-stand partner has feelings for me or not, or I'm not sure what their intentions are?Just be wary of men you actually like or might want to have a relationship with. If you're not sure about your partner's intentions and you might want something more serious with them, my advice is to wait to have sex. You can still fool around with them but try to keep your clothes on.I've had a couple of experiences where I found myself in bed with a guy I liked, and I wasn't sure about his intentions with me. In this case, I like to refuse to have sex with them and see how it plays out. When we part ways, we either never speak again, or we continue our relationship and get to know each other better. By then, we're beyond a one-night stand and have a slightly longer, more meaningful relationship.This is only for partners you might have feelings for or want something more serious with. If you don't want that, and you just think they're hot and want to have some quick casual sex, keep reading!What if I don't have feelings for my one-night stand partner?That's awesome! This is probably the ideal scenario. When you're both using each other to have a damn good time, no one has to feel bad about it. I've heard many women say that they feel guilty or get attached when they have sex with someone. This isn't always the case for me. I tend to get attached to someone I have sex with when I have feelings for them. But if I just think they're hot, and this experience truly is not going anywhere, then f**k it! I'm just in it for the sex, and I won't be messaging them the next day, and that's that.During: What should you keep in mind during a one-night stand?* Use protection when you have penetrative sex: You're going to need protection against pregnancy and STDs. Just remember that nature is a b***h, and people can often carry STDs without having any symptoms. These STDs can cause life-long complications for women, like infertility from Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) if left untreated. The challenge with one-night stands is that if you don't use protection, the situation can quickly escalate. No matter how much fun you thought you had that night, when you're taking Plan B or dealing with HPV forever, it's going to f*****g suck.* Trust your earlier intuition. I've had men promise me all kinds of things when they're trying to have sex with me. “I love you!” (They don't). “I'll love you forever.” (They won't). “That was the best b******b I've ever had.” (Well, maybe that one's true). Regardless, this is why you need to have it clear in your mind before you have your one-night stand what you are willing to do and what you want to get out of it. The wrong kinds of partners will say anything to get you to have sex with them. Have your wits about you and ignore the b******t and excessive sweet talk.* Prioritize your pleasure: It is very important that you, as a female, also experience sexual pleasure and orgasm, if you so choose, during this one-night stand. The statistics around female pleasure for first-time hookup sex are pretty dire. As Dr. Laurie Mintz shares in her fantastic book, “Becoming Cliterate,” “55 percent of men versus 4 percent of women said they usually reach orgasm during first-time hookup sex!” Boo. We can do better than that! Basically, the most important thing to remember is that having sexual intercourse (putting the penis in the vagina) is NOT the most reliable route to orgasm for most females. Sexual intercourse is basically for the male orgasm only. Also, men want to please women. So, how can you have pleasurable sex? “Almost 45 percent of women said their most reliable route to orgasm was intercourse coupled with clitoral stimulation.” I've written a whole article about female orgasms. Here are the most important points for your one night stand:* Mimic the way you pleasure yourself when you're with a partner: That's why I recommend having your toys on hand at your house or bringing your Vesper necklace to your partner's house. Basically, get your partner to assist you using the masturbation techniques that already work for you and that you know you like.* Get the guy to pleasure you in ways that you like but find difficult, if not impossible, to do to yourself: As I mentioned in the article, a tiny amount of butt stuff from my male partner, coupled with clitoral stimulation from my hand or a toy, does the trick very easily for me.* Take your time: You've got all freaking night. What's the rush? If you're a guy reading this article, make it clear to your female partner that her enjoying herself is important to you and that you'll be patient.* Remember that oral sex and “foreplay” is the female's main course: “Quoting Ian Kerner, author of the how-to oral sex manual for men She Comes First, “Most men consider cunnilingus an aspect of foreplay, an appetizer to be served before the main meal of genital intercourse.” However, it's crucial to understand that this “appetizer” is actually the main course for many women—it's the way they orgasm!” (Read “Becoming Cliterate” and “She Comes First”).* Go all out: This is my favorite tip! You've found someone with whom you can safely explore sexual stuff, and then you'll never see again, so seize the moment! Why not experiment, explore, and try stuff you've always wanted to try? Take a bath. Try a new position. Try chocolate or food in bed. Of course, ask your partner what they're comfortable with trying (I always shamelessly ask for a bit of butt stuff, obviously.) And if you're having a good time, or you think they're hot, say so! My best one-night stand was when a guy in Newcastle told me how much he loved my bush, and he ate me out for ages. It was so hot!* Make sure you pee after sex: You might already know this, but don't forget. It's great for helping avoid UTIs, etc.* Get your beauty sleep: You deserve to be a functioning human the next day. It's time to get some rest. If you know that you'll totally struggle to sleep, feel free to call yourself or them an Uber.The Morning After: What should you do after a one-night stand?* Prioritize your health and vitals: While one-night stands can be fun, they can be very depleting in terms of your basic needs. After you're all done, take time to shower, eat, get some sleep, and rest yourself back to health. Consider drinking a Gatorade or Electrolit to get hydrated. If you're feeling super depressed, try to do some light exercise, like going for a walk, and just know that this feeling will pass. Being hungover and sleep-deprived is a recipe for feeling like s**t!* Only have brunch with your partner if you want to: You can keep hanging out, getting coffee or food, or let him cook you breakfast, but just remember that you don't owe this person anything. Don't feel any pressure to keep hanging out with them. Only keep them around if you want to.* Clean your house: Depending on how much of a witch you are, you might want to wash your bedsheets, open all the windows to air things out, and sage-cleanse your house

Be honest, are you faking it in the bedroom? If you are, you are not alone. Studies show that up to 70% of women have faked an orgasm at least once. But here's the real question: why do we fake it, and at what cost? From the societal pressures to perform to the orgasm gap to myths about what sex should look like, the reasons are complex, and in midlife, as our bodies' hormones and desires change, it can feel even more challenging to prioritize our pleasure.

Men who have read the books have also learned how to pleasure women and become better sexual communicators.We chatted about the truth that the clitoris is the source of the female orgasm, how we can close the orgasm gap... AND is it really a real gap or really, more accurately, is it from inattention to the clitoris? Our culture perpetuates this falsehood. We also chatted about orgasm equality, sex ed, the anatomy of the clitoris (IT'S A REALLY BIG NETWORK AND GROWS TO 300 TIMES ITS SIZE FOR AN ERECTION).

In this episode we talk about equality in sex and relationships. We delve into the roots of cultural and religious writings that have informed a male superiority over the centuries, where women's shame around sex, nakedness and physical desire comes from, how we can recognise if our sexual script is skewed/damaged, and what to do about it.  NB trigger warning at 15 minutes where Emma describes the action of rape, it is no more than one minute long. Once again, Emma is fantastic and gives us lots to think about. If you've not heard the first episode she did, Episode 94 'What is Good Sex?' is well worth a listen as well, it is currently one of our most downloaded podcasts. To get in touch with Emma Waring, here's her website Emma's book is Seasons of Sex and Intimacy She also mentioned Becoming Cliterate by Dr Laurie Mintz and Fairplay by Eve Rodsky

The Queen of the Clit herself Dr. Laurie Mitz author of "Becoming Cliterate" is back with another cliterate episode.  Over the years I've realized that we really don't know much about female anatomy and sexuality in the general public.  Like women don't even know about their own bodies and what sexual pleasure really is.  Women don't know that the vagina isn't their entire sexual nether region.  Over and over I hear women say they "think" they have had an orgasm.  Ummmm... you'd know for sure if you had had one, I promise.  And they think that if they squirt they are peeing on themselves.  So listening to all of this I figured we needed to REALLY talk about it openly and who better to have this conversation with than Dr. Laurie.  We start this crucial conversation on this episode.  Let's talk Vulvas, Vaginas, Orgasms, Squirting and more.  And you know this won't be the last episode with my favorite Queen of Clit Dr. Laurie Mitz but you don't want to miss this one. This is a conversation we need to have a lot more of because ladies our sexual health and our bodies are just as important as mens.  No more "thinking" you've had an orgasm - go grab a vibrator and learn how your body truly works so that you can improve your sex life with your partner or even if you don't have a partner still get that very health and needed orgasm on your own.  Sexuality isn't just a male hetero-centric thing.  Women are a major part of it.  Sex isn't something done to us.  Our bodies are not something to be ashamed of.  Let's take sex and our bodies back.   PS check out her epic vibrator earrings.  Y'all I really need a pair to go with my new clitoris pin.  Y'all its way past time that we all became cliterate. Link to order book from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Cliterate-Laurie-Mintz-audiobook/dp/B074NBD66K/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=becoming+cliterate+dr.+laurie+mintz&qid=1640900368&sprefix=becoming+clit%2Caps%2C155&sr=8-1EPISODE 2:19 COCKTAIL RECIPE | Watermelon Splash4 oz watermelon and cucumber juice2 oz watermelon vodkaSplash of lime juiceEdible Glitter from Fancy SprinklesFor all the latest contests and happening behind the scenes:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Karas-Lipsti... Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karaslipsti...To view the antics subscribe to the YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE2P...#karaslipstickdiary​ #cliterate #femalepleasure #femalesexuality #sex #sextalk #drlauriemintz #sextherapy #sexeducation #femaleanatomy #clitoris #vulva #vagina #womensrights #sexuality #sexualhealth #feminist #sexpositive ABOUT KARA'S LIPSTICK DIARYKara Winslow is freelance on location makeup artist based in Florida that has worked in the entertainment and wedding/event industries for over 25 years.  She spent over a decade doing work at HSN both on camera and behinds the scenes for a cosmetic company.  After several years of being away from being on camera she decided to launch her podcast.

Women around the nation cry in fear today as a true war on women has been declared by the Supreme Court overturning Roe vs. Wade.  Women lives, health, futures and financial freedom have just been ripped away.  The access to legal abortions is so important to the welfare of women.  Forced pregnancy is considered a violation of human rights.  Our supreme court clearly no longer thinks of this nation's women as human.   In this episode my guest, Dr. Laurie Mintz (the author of Becoming Cliterate) and I discuss some of the impact overturning Roe v Wade will have on the lives of women and children and how beyond devastate it is.  SEASON 2 EPISODE 15 COCKTAIL RECIPE | Amaro Santoni- 2 parts Amaro Santonin- 4 parts tonic waterRemember to subscribe and leave us some feedback https://youtu.be/d-Wn-6zz6m0For all the latest contests and happening behind the scenes:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Karas-Lipsti... Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karaslipsti...To view the antics subscribe to the YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE2P...#karaslipstickdiary​ #roevwade #roevswade #womensrights #prolifeisprochoice #abortionrights #mybodymychoice  ABOUT KARA'S LIPSTICK DIARYKara Winslow is freelance on location makeup artist based in Florida that has worked in the entertainment and wedding/event industries for over 25 years.  She spent over a decade doing work at HSN both on camera and behinds the scenes for a cosmetic company.  After several years of being away from being on camera she decided to launch her podcast.

Mintz has authored more than fifty research articles in academic journals, as well as http://drlauriemintz.com/books/a-tired-womans-guide-to-passionate-sex/ (A Tired Woman's Guide to Passionate Sex).  We talk about the fact we have been thinking about sex all wrong.

Learn who started researching the orgasm gap in the first place. How many different types of orgasms are possible and do they all come from the clitoris or from many different places – and why do we even care?

Dr. Laurie Mintz is a feminist author, therapist, professor, and speaker whose life's work has been committed to helping people live more authentic, meaningful, joyful—and sexually satisfying—lives through the art and science of psychology. Background story - how she got into sexuality education and therapy? Everyone cares about a woman's libido – but I want to ask – are women just having boring sex? Tell us the stats about orgasmic inequality and how this ties in to affecting a woman's libido The orgasm gap is even worse for the hook up culture – can you tell us the data and why it is concerning. What is her opinion on scheduling sex? She talks about stress and overwork as top reasons for lowered sex life – my women say “oh yeah” but what should they actually do about it. She says that “empowerment in the bedroom leads to confidence in the boardroom” – please tell us more. In her “tired guide” book you say there is no pill for desire – that book was 2009 – now there is a pill and an injection – what are her thoughts about these? If someone asked me to re-do sex ed for our youth – I would include pleasure, vulvar anatomy, the lie that PIV causes orgasms for women – what would you add? I want to ask her about three women and hear her advice A 20 yo single, just starting out A 38 yo, married, kids, full time job – lost her libido, doesn't enjoy sex A 58 yo, post menopause, kids out of the house, husband feels like a roomate What her opinion of us educators not being able to use or being afraid of saying certain words on Becoming Cliterate https://amzn.to/373dMe6 The Tired Woman's Guide to Passionate Sex: https://amzn.to/373dMe6 https://www.instagram.com/drlauriemintz https://www.drlauriemintz.com/ Magnificent Sex by Peggy Kleinplatz https://amzn.to/3C9UelT --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kj-casperson/message

YOUR SEXUALITY IS YOUR POWER. We're so excited to have Certified Tantra, Love and Relationship Coach, Sarrah Rose on our show today. Sarrah advocates for how self-love and healing are necessary for both men and women to heal their relationship with their sexuality. The path to promote a more sex positive culture has NOT been easy and she opens up about this with her upbringing and relational trauma. Let's dive in and find out about these other healing modalities and simply talk about sex. [3:14] Who Is Sarrah Rose? Sarrah explains how a yoga class at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) led her to tantra and its role in releasing emotional trauma inhibiting us from fully stepping into our sexual identities.  [5:11] Misconceptions of Sexuality. Sarrah explains that these misconceptions are gender dependent. Men and women sex is bad or dangerous, or oppsite conditioning in having. Women sex is bad, can't display sexuality. Conditioning to make sexual trauma through, sets a very ripe stage for people to experience a lot of sexual abuse and trauma. Sex negative society [8:00] Sex-Negative Culture. When we shove down our sexuality, which is a part of our biology, the more thwarted and fearful it becomes.  The lack of conversations around sex lead to misconceptions about what are sexuality is supposed to be like. Sarrah emphasizes how self-love is where we can begin in promoting a more sex-positive culture [12:51] Role of the Primal Brain. We dive into a little how our feelings around sex being safe is rooted in trauma stored in the primal brain, internal resistance [17:56] Tantra and Shadow Work. Sarrah and Nina share their own trauma with infidelity and development of performance anxiety. Sarrah explains how shadow work and tantra were two main healing modalities to bring the repressed parts of herself back to our consciousness to integrate and heal them. [25:00] Lacking Sexual Confidence Impacting More Than We Think. Sarrah explains how lack of intimacy or sexual confidence impacts our self actualization in other areas of our lives. She explains this impact through utilizing the chakra system and Maslow's hierarchy of needs. [30:00] What is Tantra? We try to break the taboo around tantra as we ask Sarrah to explain what this is, it's origins in India, as well as the difference between Classical and Neo-Tantra. [33:25] 4 Tantric Basics To Begin Healing. Sarrah dives into how to breath, sound, movement and focus are used and how putting these four pieces together expands your sexual energy.  We jaw drop about generating how movement and manipulation of energy can generate energy orgasms...WHAT THE WHAT! [41:21] Sex Magic. This lovely, empowering  practice that Sarrah describes helps us define the identity we want to show up in the bedroom and further define what we want to experience. [46:00] Building Sexual Confidence and Consent is SEXY. We discuss how using our voice is a big empowering step forward, especially with consent and how changing our mindset to be wealthy with our sexual energy. This all begins with healing our relationship sexually [1:02:00] What Was Sarrah's Be You Not Them Moment? The question we ask all our guests on the Be You Not Them podcast.  We hope that Sarrah's experience and advocacy shed a little more light on what it means to be sexually empowered and how critical tantra is as a healing modality to get our sexual power back. We are incredibly thankful for Sarrah and the transformative work she is doing! You know where to reach us guys.

Valeria interviews Dr. Laurie Mintz, the author of Becoming Cliterate: Why Orgasm Equality Matters--And How to Get It In Becoming Cliterate, psychology professor and human sexuality expert Dr. Laurie Mintz exposes the broader cultural problem that's perpetuating this gap, and what we can do about it. Pulling together evidence from biology, sociology, linguistics, and sex therapy into one comprehensive, accessible, and prescriptive book, Becoming Cliterate features: — Cultural & historical analysis of female orgasm (spoiler: the problem's been going on for ages) — An anatomy section (it's all custom under the hood) — Proven techniques for cliterate sex (it starts with training the sex organ between your ears) — A comprehensive final chapter for men (because you don't have to have a clitoris to be cliterate) By dispelling the lies, misunderstandings, and myths that have been holding us back, Becoming Cliterate tackles both personal and political problems and replaces them with updated outlooks and practical skills needed to change our collective perspective on sex. It's time to finally inform women and men on how to have satisfying experiences in bed that benefit both parties. The revolution is cuming--and Becoming Cliterate offers a radical, simple solution to progress and pleasure for all. Dr. Laurie Mintz is an award-winning college professor.

Mainstream media, movies, and porn have taught us that sex = penis + vagina, and everything else is just secondary. Standard penetration is how men most reliably achieve orgasm. The problem is, women don't orgasm this way. We've separated our most reliable route to orgasm - clitoral stimulation - from how we feel we should orgasm - penetration. As a result we've created a pleasure gap between women and men: 50 percent of 18- to 35-year-old women say they have trouble reaching orgasm with a partner 64 percent of women versus 91 percent of men said they had an orgasm at their last sexual encounter 55 percent of men versus 4 percent of women say they usually reach orgasm during first-time hookup sex In Becoming Cliterate, psychology professor and human sexuality expert Dr. Laurie Mintz exposes the broader cultural problem that's perpetuating this gap and what we can do about it. Pulling together evidence from biology, sociology, linguistics, and sex therapy into one comprehensive, accessible, and prescriptive book, Becoming Cliterate features: Cultural and historical analysis of female orgasm (spoiler: the problem's been going on for ages) An anatomy section (it's all custom under the hood) Proven techniques for cliterate sex (it starts with training the sex organ between your ears) A comprehensive final chapter for men (because you don't have to have a clitoris to be cliterate) By dispelling the lies, misunderstandings, and myths that have been holding us back, Becoming Cliterate tackles both personal and political problems and replaces them with updated outlooks and practical skills needed to change our collective perspective on sex.

For fifteen years, Avery Crown tried to forget her best friend Merritt Lessing. The late nights studying, the whispered confidences, and the little touches that never turned into something more. Unfortunately, her efforts have not been as successful as her TV career as the queen of home renovation. So when she runs into Merritt at their high school reunion, Avery asks for one night with the woman she's always wanted . . . Merritt spent high school pining after Avery, but never made a move-their friendship meant too much. The one time it seemed things might change, Avery chose her budding career. So Merritt did the same, throwing herself into her remodeling business. Now Avery's back, and while Merritt still hasn't forgiven her for walking away the first time, they can't keep their hands off each other. But when their professional paths cross, and it seems like Avery is choosing her career once again, Merritt will have to decide if she's willing to let go of the past and give herself a second chance with her first love.   Get the book on Amazon here -> https://amzn.to/2Icqduw (this link works for Amazon US, UK, Canada, Italy and Germany)   Something True by Karelia Stetz-Waters Publisher Forever Yours On audio: no Synopsis Don't miss Karelia's newest release in the Out in Portland series, Worth the Wait, available this summer! Tate Grafton has a tough exterior, but underneath she's kind, caring, and fiercely loyal. That's why she first started working at Out in Portland Coffee - it was her way of repaying the shop's owner for taking her in as a homeless teenager. Nine years later, the coffee shop is floundering and Tate feels like she's letting life pass her by . . . until she shares an unforgettable night with a beautiful stranger. When the mysterious woman disappears the next morning, Tate doesn't even know her name. Laura Enfield was supposed to be in Portland for only a few days - just long enough to oversee a simple business deal before joining her conservative father on his political campaign. But when the closeted Laura romances an employee of the coffee shop her company is shutting down, things get suddenly complicated. Now, the lies she's told for years are beginning to unravel, and her biggest secret is about to be exposed. Laura can't stop thinking about the barista with the soulful eyes, but after a lifetime of deception, can she finally embrace something true?   Get the book on Amazon here -> https://amzn.to/2E7Arsc (this link works for Amazon US, UK, Canada, Italy and Germany)   BONUS: Karelia Stetz-Waters suggests that if would really like to become cliterate (and watch one of the sexiest pieces of media I've ever seen) tcheck out the OMGYes project.

In our last podcast titled “Real Men Know She Comes First with Ian Kerner”, Ian explained to us the importance of using oral sex to fully please a woman. He calls it “Core Play” because that’s what brings the most pleasure to women. He also created the word “Cliteracy” and tells men that there are no more excuses for being “Ill-cliterate” with women. Ian Kerner says “Down with ill-cliteracy! The tongue is mightier than the sword! Think outside HER box! Viva la Vulva!” His book “She Comes First” is mainly targeted at helping men understand women’s sexual needs better and gives a step by step guide to blow a woman’s mind in the bedroom. As awesome as Ian Kerner’s book is at helping men, it is only half the battle. Women need to know their bodies better and what brings them pleasure. Our guest today, Laurie Mintz wrote the book “Becoming Cliterate Why Orgasm Equality Matters and How To Get it”. In this amazing book, Laurie guides women in exploring their bodies to understand what they like so they can express that desire to their partners to bring them maximum pleasure. Her mission is to close the “Orgasm Gap” that has been affecting women for centuries. This notion that sex is for the man’s pleasure and it’s a woman’s duty to satisfy men is so 1950s. Today’s women need to grab their orgasms by the horns and ride that pleasure beast like the world champion bull rider “Lane Frost”. It’s time to take matters into your own hands…literally…and know thy self or at least know thy vulva. If you don’t know how your vulva brings you pleasure, stop expecting your man to be some kind of Magellan that goes on a lifelong expedition to find your O-face. You need to figure it out and then provide the pleasure map to your partner. Laurie Mintz lays this out perfectly in her bestselling book “Becoming Cliterate” and this is a must read for anyone that was lucky enough to be born with a clit, the greatest pleasure generator ever designed. I know everyone wants to jump online and order “Becoming Cliterate” and get down to business, but before you do that listen to this amazing interview with Laurie Mintz right now.Website: http://drlauriemintz.com/

Girl Talk host Marcia Meier speaks with Dr. Laurie Mintz, author of "Becoming Cliterate," about the orgasm gap between men and women and how to bridge it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/girl-talk-women-aging-sex/support

Today we’re talking about one of the greatest gyn mysteries:  the location, anatomy, physiology & function of the clitoris. We’re calling this segment “Becoming Cliterate.”  To guide us is Dr. Becky Kaufman Lynn, Director for the Center for Sexual Health & Associate Professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology, as well as the Assistant Director of the medical student clerkship at St Louis University in St. Louis MO.  She generally talks about all things involving sexuality & says that the two most common things she hears from her patients are complaints about decreased libido and painful sex, particularly in her patients who are either menopausal or in various stages of treatment & recovery for various cancers.

Becoming Cliterate Dr. Laurie shares the reason behind why she wrote her book, Becoming Cliterate: Why Orgasm Equality Matters--And How to Get It. As a professor to over 150 students a year, she shares the influence her undergrad students had on this book. Two factors that ultimately influenced her was the massive orgasm gap in men and women, and the loss of clitoral knowledge. Listen as she tackles the miseducation that society is subjected to and uncovers some shocking orgasm statistics you don't want to miss. Becoming Cliterate seeks to eradicate the notion that intercourse is the ultimate pleasure for women and the way they should orgasm. Dr. Laurie mentions the book as a combination of cultural analysis and self-help as it brings gender equality into relationships. Reasons for the Pleasure Gap It's not easy to admit that there is a huge gap between men and women's take on pleasure. Dr. Laurie explains why penetration does not give the same level of satisfaction for both genders. Join in as she discusses the other possible reasons for this gap, including body image issues, cognitive issues and lack of training in sexual communication. We hear how the lack of clitoral knowledge plays a key role in the pleasure gap and how this stems from pornography and misinformation. Closing the Gap Dr. Laurie believes that there is a need for a sexual revolution in pleasure equality. Tune in to hear where this revolution starts. She emphasizes that just talking can close the gap. Tips for Women Who Have Never Had an Orgasm Dr. Laurie's advice if you are one of these women: Masturbate!! Join in to hear her 4 steps for your first orgasm. Get ready to know your body better after this! She reminds us that it is important to get the same kind of stimulation when with your partner too. While this may take some creativity, it is achievable for everyone. Apart from this, Dr. Laurie educates us in having good communication with our partners. How to use “I” statements in communicating your needs and/or wants, and how you can be at ease when talking to your partner about this. She highlights that this is your equal right to pleasure. Tips for Men and the Biggest Takeaway Clitoral education is not just for women to understand, it's definitely one of the things men should also learn about. In this episode, Dr. Laurie also shares a variety of ways on how men can open the topic to their partners and help their partners talk about what they want in sex. Remember, sex is intended to be equally pleasurable. Background Laurie Mintz, PH.D. is an award-winning college professor.
