Betty Dodson is an American sex educator. She an artist by training, she exhibited erotic art in New York, before pioneering the pro-sex feminist movement. It is a separate from mainstream feminism, which she sees as needlessly political and hostile towards males.
In this video, she talks about masturbation, a form of sexual stimulation of one’s own genitals for sexual arousal or other sexual pleasure, usually to the point of orgasm.
Stimulation can involve hands, fingers, everyday objects, sex toys, or any combination of those. Masturbation is completely normal and healthy sexual activity with few side effects. While some might claim blindness and similar side effects, those are not proven.
