Women’s Health Series: Improving “cliteracy,” sexual wellbeing, and the “orgasm gap”

| The clitoris, it's not a legend |
Sex can be a big point of contention and even disappointment for women. Buddhist mindfulness helps. Studies have shown that while men in heterosexual relationships climax around 80% of the time during sexual encounters, that percentage drops significantly for women having sex with men.
- Wait, what in the world's a clitoris? Oh, that
- No, it's actually much bigger: clitoral anatomy

Becoming Cliterate: Why Orgasm Equality Matters -- And How to Get It
Awards have also been received from two major sexuality organizations to recognize it as the best book for promoting sexual health -- first given by the Society for Sex Therapy and Research and second by the Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health.
Studies published in scientific journals show that women who read this book orgasm more, have more arousal, and less pain, improve their body image, and become more sexually satisfied. Men learn how to pleasure women and become better sexual communicators.

| It finally happened! - Really? - Yeah, with sports |
Standard penetration is how men most reliably achieve orgasm. The problem is, women don't orgasm this way. As women we've separated our most reliable route to orgasm -- clitoral stimulation -- from how we feel we should orgasm, penetration. Hey, it's science. As a result, we've created a pleasure gap between women and men:
- 50% of 18-35-year-old women say they have trouble reaching orgasm with a partner
- 64% of women vs 91% of men said they had an orgasm at their last sexual encounter
- 55% of men vs. 4% of women say they usually reach orgasm during first-time hookup sex.

| We're American; let's talk about it. |
In Becoming Cliterate, University of Florida Professor of Psychology and Human Sexuality 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 our ears)
- A comprehensive final chapter for men (because one doesn'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 [American] perspective on sex.
It's time to finally tell women and men 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. More + AUDIO CLIP
