The Internal Clitoris

The Internal Clitoris | Sacred Sexuality | Scoop.it

Consider this: In over five million years of human evolution, only one organ has come to exist for the sole purpose of providing pleasure – the clitoris.  It is not required for reproduction.  It doesn’t have a urethra running through it like the penis, and thus, does not urinate.  Its sole function – its singular, wonderful purpose – is to make a woman feel good!!

Sadly, it is precisely because the clitoris has no function apart from female pleasure that science has neglected to study it as intricately as the penis...

Caution...this scoop isn't for the faint of heart!

Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired. ~Robert Frost If there ever was an area that needed to be more openly discussed among married couples, it’s this one: sex. It is easy to believe that every other couple has no difficulties with the subject. That if you and your spouse are having trouble when it comes to sex, you are the only ones.

Erotic Love Map Quiz - The Gottman Relationship Blog

A surprisingly significant number of people in relationships aren't aware of their partner’s needs simply because they haven’t talked to them about it in the right way. It isn't that they aren't interested, but rather it's just that they don't know how to approach the conversation. The best way to open up to your partner about your lovemaking is to ask them targeted, specific questions.

Couple Builder: Ask How To Make Things More Sensual

Couple Builder: Ask How To Make Things More Sensual | Sacred Sexuality | Scoop.it

How to make things more sensual

In Tuesday’s article, Top 5 Problems With Sex Today, I mentioned that people are getting too much information from the Internet, and not enough from their partner. Getting information from the Internet is, by its nature, impersonal. When we take information gathered impersonally into intimacy we depersonalize that as well. This leaves partners feeling disconnected and lonely in the very arena that’s meant to bond them and create closeness!
