I Fake Orgasms

No girl, we don’t do this anymore to protect a partner's ego. It’s a disservice to YOU. And permission slip to literally not make orgasm the only freaking goal.

Have fun. Maximize pleasure. Get sweaty and messy. If you orgasm, fantastic — but if you don’t, there’s always a next time.

You’re not a damn robot so stop treating yourself like it. Sex is fun! Take the pressure off and go play ⚡️

Sex Is Painful

It’s not supposed to be!

Get yourself medically checked and if there’s nothing “medically wrong” … go seek out a skilled pelvic floor therapist.

My Body Is Just Broken

No it’s the fuck not. That patriarchal conditioning you received as a little girl and in early teens. It’s also probably because you live in your head and just need some Breathwork, breast massage, proper sex education, Tantra and compassion for your gorgeous self. Straighten your crown, Queen.

I Take Too Long to Orgasm

That’s really all. Except whoever told you this is an asshat. Women can take up to 35-45 minutes to orgasm and sometimes just fucking don’t depending on your cycle. You’re not a porn girl actress, you’re a Goddess and Goddesses need time, foreplay, often connection and a partner not afraid to summon her ecstasy instead of force it 😋
