Förutom det innehåller den information om kroppen, klitoris, sex, självförtroende osv. Den har något för all. Den har tom. bildarkiv med alla olika typer av bröst och vaginor.

Några utdrag:

"By the time puberty rolls around we have already been taught "appropriate" sexual response. We perhaps know that any sexual response is bad. We may have been so isolated from our physical sexual self's that we are not even aware of it when we are sexual aroused. This is more true of girls than boys, as boys experience a tell tale erection. We know what "good girls" and "bad girls" are. We know who a suitable mate is, even if we cannot think of them in sexual terms. Teenage girls, and adult women, may not permit themselves to be in situations that result in them feeling sexual, if they categorize those feeling as bad. They may perceive sexual arousal as "being in love." They may tune out any sexual feelings, denying they occur, or they may respond so negatively to sexual stimuli that sex itself is impossible.

Some women do not have many negative feelings toward sex and are openly sexual. They enjoy being aroused and seek out sexual stimuli freely. They do not care who or what causes them to feel aroused, they just enjoy it. Of course society views these "sexual girls" and "sexual women" negatively and labels them "sluts" and "whores." In our confused society, the girl who shuns all sexual feelings is considered more "normal" than a woman who is openly sexual. This is less true than it was twenty years ago, but still very much true.

Orgasm may be more of a mental perception than a physical experience for women, more so than it is for men, as the result of the greater sexual restrictions placed on women. A man's ability to achieve an erection and ejaculate is a symbol of his manhood, a woman's sexual arousal and sexual enjoyment may be seen as "out of control" and "wanton." This is perhaps why women are often times less orgasmic than men as one has to speculate that both are equally orgasmic at birth."

- Att sex ofta tills viss del eller stor del uppfattas som skamfullt av kvinnor är knappast en nyhet. Det är svårt för kvinnor att ta för sig eller uttrycka vad de själva vill i sitt sexliv. Enligt egen erfarenhet och baserat på de runtomkring mig är detta något som är speciellt svårt när man är yngre, och ofta ser en kvinna sig själv som dålig eller destruktiv om hon haft en översexuell period med många one night stands t.ex.

"Even if a woman experiences a desire for intercourse, a vaginal ache, she may find intercourse does not fulfill her sexual needs. She may enjoy it physically, but finds it leaves her wanting more"

- Sant, och vad som desssutom är bra med sidan är att de belyser att det även finns kvinnor som gillar just vaginal penetration och får orgasm utav det, jag har för mig att de nämnde 20-23% av alla kvinnor.

"We make a big deal of intercourse and present the idea that if a couple is having intercourse all their sexual desires will be fulfilled. This can be demonstrated by the way in which Viagra is advertised. Based on these ads, one is led to believe if a man can have an erection all a couples' sexual problems are resolved. It ignores the possibility that a woman may want nothing to do with an erect penis, even though she seeks sexual pleasure, orgasm, and fulfillment. One must always remember intercourse is only one small and optional part of our sexual experiences."

- Om mannen har stånd fungerar sexet, förövrigt kan Viagra även användas på kvinnor. Men få vet om det då det inte marknadsförs åt det hållet.

"Female sexual desire is taboo and seldom mentioned, even more so than female masturbation. If women and girls do not experience sexual desire why would they need to masturbate? Women and teens may be unsure if they experience desire, especially give many would prefer they did not. While male desire and masturbation are acknowledged and often required, female desire and masturbation are frequently denied, suppressed, and ridiculed. When men and teenage boys express desire they are studs, teenage girls and women are frequently labeled sluts when they do the same. As a result, there is seldom a safe place for women to acknowledge, express, and share their experiences with sexual desire."

- Det finns bl.a. en hejarklacksramsa om kvinnlig masturbation som en feministisk grupp slängde ihop. Den handlar om att man ska kunna säga nej och onanera stolt - känsligt ämne, när dessutom ordet manschauvanist nämndes i ramsan så gav det full grogrund för bråk. I varje feministiskt forum jag hängt i har det tillslut kommit någon som citerat sången och yrkat på att den är extremt mansförnedrande. En hejarklackslåt, för kvinnlig onani.

Läs själva, vissa saker håller jag med om, andra inte, men hursomhelst är det intressant läsning.
