The unknown greatness of the clitoris | Maria Røsok | TEDxOslo

I was 13 in the shower experimenting with a shower head, it felt great and I had no idea why I never said it, I never asked, I was embarrassed, I don't really remember but I remember the feeling it gave me, it was wonderful and he It was only mine. I'm here today to talk about the

unknown

greatness

of the

clitoris

. This organ is the only one in the human body that exists only for pleasure. You probably think of it as a small button, but this particular button is just the tip of an iceberg. an iceberg we are talking about the iceberg of pleasure sexual maturity and self-respect the misunderstanding has its roots in a long history since the name

clitoris

derives from the ancient Greek meaning small hill it was in 1998 just 20 years ago the Australian urologist Helena cones research gave us a complete picture that will help us become better lovers and in better health, but first some clear effects: the clitoris is almost the size of a penis just inside the female body, under the skin, the clitoris has a large body with two arms that extend downward and surround the vagina each of these arms measures between seven and 15 centimeters long the clitoris consists of an erectile TC that is similar to the corpus spongiosum of the penis and following sexual arousal it will fill with blood The head anatomically called the glans varies from half to two and a half centimeters and is covered with a foreskin like the head of the penis thanks and like the penis that they comment on different sizes varieties and shapes served us the clitoris can be large or small or somewhere between a penis is an organ that we know a lot about and everyone knows that it is sensitive, a penis has four thousand nerve endings but the clitoris accesses up to eight thousand twice as many and this makes it the most erogenous zone of the human body The atomic condition of the clitoris is to provide sexual arousal and is important for a woman's orgasm and the good news is that it can be stimulated from many external directions, direct, vaginal, anal, combinations of these and this produces long, short or In series, there is a lot more to the clitoris than most people.

Know and believe me, you are not alone in not knowing it for the past six months. I have shown this plastic model of a clitoris to hundreds of people of all ages and backgrounds. Almost no one can tell what it is, including medical personnel. There are no photographs of the entire clitoris in any book or website, children do not learn about it in school and teachers, nurses and doctors do not learn about this organ during their studies and the more I study and the more people I talk to, I understand that it is a knowledge and research on female sexuality is fragmented and there is little to no real authority on the subject, however, back in the 18th century people believed that a woman needed to have an orgasm to get pregnant, it was also believed that man and woman needed to have a simultaneous orgasm to get pregnant, we can only imagine their clearer approach back then, but the bad guy in this story is Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis according to Dr.

Freud True female orgasms were achieved through vaginal penetration. If the woman could not obtain an orgasm through penetration, she was mentally ill and needed treatment. Playing with the clitoris was for girls, not for a grown woman. Today we know better an interesting American study from 2017, including 52,000 participants, they say that there is a considerable gap between lesbian and heterosexual women when it comes to orgasms. 65% of heterosexual women generally always have orgasms when they are sexually intimate. For lesbians, the number is 86%, so what's your secret? recommend more frequently more oral sex of longer duration six ask for what they want in bed talk to each other and also try new sexual positions women were more likely to orgasm if their last sexual encounter included deep kissing manual genital stimulation of the clitoris and also oral sex In addition to vaginal intercourse, but why should we all know about the clitoris?

Because we care about the health of our daughters, sisters and girlfriends. We know that good and mature sexual health is a roadmap to good physical and mental health, not to mention all. The joy and pleasure it brings Studies show that regular orgasms strengthen the immune system, make you look younger, are good for your heart and sleep, and reduce feelings of stress. I guess you all want a little bit of that, so my message. for you today is to have a closer relationship with clitoral beakers, go out and spread the word and get yourself a good shower head, thank you.
