In this episode of The Sexuality Clinic Podcast: Exploring Pleasure and Relationships, we tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in sexual wellness: the female orgasm. Hosted by Clinical Sexologist Roxanna Smallwood, this episode aims to empower listeners by debunking four common myths that can lead to frustration or even shame around experiencing pleasure.
We start by breaking down a key myth - the belief that orgasm should come naturally. As we discuss, orgasm is actually a learned skill, often developed through self-exploration. Another misconception is that an orgasm should “just happen.” The truth is that pleasure and focus play a key role in experiencing orgasm, making it an active process rather than a passive one.
Listeners will also learn why it’s never too late to discover their capacity for pleasure and how societal norms may have shaped their experiences in the bedroom. This episode is packed with insights to help female bodied individuals (and their partners) — whether they’re exploring orgasm for the first time or hoping to enhance their sexual experiences— feel more connected, confident, and empowered in their journey toward pleasure.

Also, as mentioned in the podcast, here are a few notes about the Stronic Petite toy from the Fun Factory site:
AFTER I USE THIS SMALL THRUSTING VIBRATOR, WILL I EVER WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH A PARTNER AGAIN?
Totally. Actually, you’ll probably want it more! Because using a pulsator on a regular basis increases circulation, sensitivity, and stimulation. And that increases your overall desire for sex— we know because that’s what a study using our STRONIC toys revealed. And anyway, who says you have to be alone to use STRONIC PETITE? Get your mini pulsator out for some exciting foreplay, combine the rhythmic thrusting with some oral FUN — or whatever you’re into right now.
