More quotes by Betty Dodson
Because orgasmic sex would lead to women's autonomy, knowing who you are and what we want: Women are not going to follow what some jackass tells us we must do. Not all women are going to get married, be monogamous and raise a family. It will destroy the current social structure based on a sexual double standard that we're currently living under.
Betty Dodson
Masturbation is our first and natural form of sexual activity and if that's inhibited or damaged, then we suffer for the rest of our lives.
Betty Dodson
When I do documentaries, my best information ends up on the cutting-room floor. People have trouble dealing with sexual honesty.
Betty Dodson
A monogamous marriage and family is what some women want - but not all of us. We are mostly doing serial monogamy anyway.
Betty Dodson
If you go out to dinner with someone, you find out what they prefer in food. We ought to be able to have a conversation to find out what people prefer when it comes to sex.
Betty Dodson
Although my Dad was a talented calligrapher and both of my younger brothers were successful, I was the first one in my family to graduate from high school.
Betty Dodson
Instead of being a well-known painter, I became everybody's favorite dirty joke. Come to think of it, teaching masturbation skills is pretty weird.
Betty Dodson
The women working at abortion clinics are really on the front lines and the true heroes of feminism.
Betty Dodson
Women don't run around saying, Oh, I took a Bodysex workshop, and I had so much fun, and Betty Dodson taught us how to blah blah. They come, they go, and I rarely hear from them again.
Betty Dodson
I think I should get the Nobel Peace Prize before I die for ending the war between the sexes.
Betty Dodson
The first thing the male establishment wants to control is uterus and birth. You might call it womb envy. But even worse is the fact we are still using the male model of sexual response for women.
Betty Dodson
I had very little support from any feminist organization. But fortunately my post-marital lover, who had bailed out of academia over political in-fighting, was a one-man support team. He was the one who pushed me to write.
Betty Dodson
The powers that be understand that sexual freedom or liberation with any kind of joy means they are losing control.
Betty Dodson
I used to think masturbation was not really sex because it only involved me. That's a very limited view of human sexuality, and it isn't going to work for women.
Betty Dodson
I consider myself a lesbian, but I'm a bisexual lesbian.
Betty Dodson
The clitoris is the female sex organ, and the fact that we aren't told that when we were small children is devastating. We grow up with no information about the pleasure center of our body.
Betty Dodson
Women who come to see me admit that they've never looked at their sex organ they've never seen their clitoris. Now tell me if that isn't a form of being psychologically genitally mutilated? For them, the clitoris doesn't exist, but we're worried about women in Africa!
Betty Dodson
We all have our individual romantic or idealistic ideas. To get information that masturbation is our basic form of sex is hard, because who wants to admit they're masturbating?
Betty Dodson
The media only wants to get the view of the flaming radicals because they make better copy than those of us who are more sensible. I'm a feminist and I think I've done a lot of good.
Betty Dodson
It's just blind luck when a woman is born into a wealthy family and attends the best colleges and joins top sororities.
