Oh girl...get a toy

Dear Prudence,
I am a 27-year-old woman and I don’t think I have ever had an orgasm. I have had a variety of sexual partners (both long-term boyfriends and flings) and masturbate regularly. I’ve tried different positions, sex toys, you name it. Sex feels great and sometimes I do feel a sort of release, but nothing as intense as I hear an orgasm is supposed to be. I love sex and don’t really have a problem with the fact that I don’t orgasm (although it would certainly be nice!), but I don’t know how to broach it with my partners. Sometimes men get frustrated or feel like it is something they are doing wrong and it becomes awkward. I’d rather not have to fake it. How do I convince them that I still enjoy sex even without the big finish?

—Am I Missing Something?

  • I never understand people who say they don't come, but masturbate regularly. What's the point? I mean, if I just want to feel nice, or whatever, I'll have non-orgasmic sex. But getting down with myself is all about the finish line. 

    And yes. She needs toys. She should find a friendly sex shop - something well-lit and well-staffed -and ask for help. I don't even bother browsing at my place anymore - I just ask for recommendations immediately, because they're awesome.

    Ahem.  She said that she tried toys.
  • She needs *other* toys, then.

  • this was my first thought too... 

    if you're masturbating and you don't orgasm, how in the world do you know when you're done?

    Do you just fall asleep with your hands in your pants or what?  *cornfuzzled*
