I grew up in a Mormon household and didn’t even know what an orgasm or masturbation was until college. I’ve repressed a lot of my sexuality (I’m bisexual) and even though I’ve since left the Mormon faith I still struggle so much with sex. I was sexually assaulted in high school, so it also might be due to that. However I recently started seeing a sex therapist and today (thanks to my handy vibrator) it just happened!!!!! I’m so happy and thrilled, I never thought I would be able to. My husband is so happy for me too. I can’t really post this on Facebook or tell anyone other than my husband so I thought I’d share it here. Sex education is so important, and everyone deserves a good sex life! I feel so empowered and so much more in control of my life.

Edit: there have been many comments like “why can’t your husband make you orgasm” – my problem with orgasm has nothing to do with him! I have had problems with sex my whole life and my husband has been so supportive in my journey to get better. Obviously the goal is to orgasm together but first I had to learn how to do it myself so I could understand what it even felt like.
