Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of The Decenter. I'm your host as always, Ricardo Lopes, and today I'm joined by Dr. Lori Mintz. She's an emeritus professor at the University of Florida, where she teaches the psychology of human sexuality. And today we're going to talk about her book, Becoming Literate, Why Orgasmic Quality Matters and How to Get It.
So, Dr. Mintz, welcome to the show. It's a huge pleasure to have you one. It's a pleasure to be here. Thank you so much for having me.
So, I mean, your book has a very provocative title. So what is its premise then? Its premise is that over 30 years of research shows us that women have fewer orgasms than men in heterosexual sexual encounters and that this is not about biology and I can get into why and prove that to you but the premise is that the reason women are struggling to orgasm is because our of our cultural ignorance of the clitoris, women's most reliable route to orgasm. And is this something that we find across the world or is it in particular countries?
