If you are an American between the ages of 14 and 49 reading this, there is a decent chance you have genital herpes and don’t know it.

Genital herpes stigma history: how an innocuous skin condition became “sexual leprosy” and sparked a myth about drug companies.

About 11.9 percent of Americans in that range have herpes simplex virus 2, or HSV-2, the kind most commonly associated with genital outbreaks, and most of them—more than 4 in 5, by some estimates—have no idea. That’s partly because government health officials think we’re better off that way. In 2019, a herpes diagnosis still carries an intense stigma. This type of sex destroys female pleasure. The truth is, most women are sexually starving, even if they are having frequent sex.

This type of sex destroys female pleasure

With an abundance of sex toys, sexual partners and unlimited sex advice you’d assume that women would be humping like rabbits and orgasming left and right. Unfortunately most women’s sex lives are their greatest sources of disappointment. The sad reality is that most people are having mediocre, conventional sex, which isn’t even scratching the surface of their pleasure potential. Even consistent orgasms, whether solo or with a partner, do not guarantee long-term sexual satisfaction in relationships. Is Your Vibrator Ruining Your Sex Life?

"Midlife" Home - Nat Kringoudis. The Radical Possibilities of Pleasure. In 2003, my doctor pressured me to start hormonal birth control in the form of a new plastic IUD that secreted tiny amounts of hormone into the uterus - such tiny amounts, he assured me, that they had no systemic impact at all.

The Radical Possibilities of Pleasure

I had already had a horrible reaction to the single shot of Depo Provera he'd given me years before, and I refused. I then fought him tooth and nail to fit me for a cervical cap. By the time I left his office, I was in equal parts incensed and elated: cervical cap in hand, I was clueless as to how I was going to use it to not get knocked up. I felt bizarrely like I'd won and lost simultaneously.

OneWoman Radio: The OneWoman (ReWilding) Movement

Using story, music and sound, and invoking a non-ordinary state of consciousness that allows us to hear, feel – and therefore know – things beyond the usual ways of knowing, OneWoman Radio offers nourishment to the starved and silenced ‘wisdom ways’ that are our necessary inheritance and responsibility. These wisdom ways, and the unapologetic ferocity and warriorship in service to Life, are anathema to the current structure of global Patriarchy, and the biocidal, biophobic stories, attitudes and actions that are its way. In order to absorb the multiple layers of nutrition within these fires we must listen with our wild ears, taste with our wild mouths. We must lap up this nutrient-dense offering like the unapologetic, unself-conscious voracious creatures.

The Psychology of Stress, Orgasm, and Creativity. “The more closely we analyze what we consider ‘sexy,’” philosopher Alain de Botton argued in his meditation on sex, “the more clearly we will understand that eroticism is the feeling of excitement we experience at finding another human being who shares our values and our sense of the meaning of existence.”

The Psychology of Stress, Orgasm, and Creativity

But in his attempt to counter the reductionism that frames human sexuality as a mere physiological phenomenon driven solely by our evolutionary biology, de Botton overcompensates by reducing in the opposite direction, negating the complex interplay of brain and biology, psychology and physiology, that propels the human sexual experience. That’s precisely what Naomi Wolf, author of the 1991 cultural classic The Beauty Myth, examines in Vagina: A New Biography (public library) — a fascinating exploration of the science behind the vastly misunderstood mind-body connection between brain and genitalia, consciousness and sexuality, the poetic and the scientific.
