We ran a little contest on our Twitter and on our Facebook group today, for people to tell us why they love boobs, because frankly, who doesn’t love boobs? These two entries were chosen as our winners, and they’ll be off to the amazing breast cancer fundraiser Boobalicious tomorrow! Here are our two favourite responses:

“What I love about boobs is that no matter what size your tatas are they will still be perky in the morning when you take your early morning bathroom trip during the chilly winter months.” Adriana Rolston

Thanks for the responses, and keep your eyes peeled for other great contests!

Good For Her is entering their fifth year as producers of the Good For Her Feminist Porn Awards, the largest and longest running celebration of feminist porn in the world. Since 1997, Good For Her has been creating a nurturing environment where everyone can feel comfortable learning about sex and pleasure. Good For Her provides quality sex toys, erotic and educational books as well as DVDs and workshops that empower and celebrate the diversity of everyone’s sexuality.

If you know anything at all about G-Spots and Female Ejaculation, you probably have Deborah Sundahl to thank for it.  Deborah is the driving force behind making the joys of the G-Spot well known in North America and making this special, sacred spot accessible to all.  Between her classic book, Female Ejaculation and the G-Spot and her DVDs including How To Female Ejaculate and Female Ejaculation for Couples, and now, her visit to Toronto to lead a workshop on finding your G-spot and experiencing female ejaculation, the plethora of information this woman is responsible for putting out into the universe is a fantastic gift.

See Deborah in Toronto on October 7th.  For more information and to pre-register, click here.

1) What got you so interested in exploring the G-Spot and Female Ejaculation?

I produced, wrote and hosted the very first commercial video on female ejaculation in 1993 (How To Female Ejaculate ). Before this time, the subject was completely and utterly silenced. It was so taboo, in fact, that you could see people’s faces shrink in disgust as they stepped away from you.  Being a feminist, I was trained in uncovering misconceptions and omissions around the female body. This deep silence around female ejaculation said to me that there must be something incredibly amazing about the G-spot and its lovely fountain. So, I rolled up my sleeves and got to work.

2) Why would you encourage other women to explore this part of their anatomy and sexuality?

Every woman has a G-spot, and it is easily accessible. Every woman can ejaculate because it is our inherent, ultra-feminine nature and anatomical ability to do so. Sexuality is the guidepost to who we are on a deep level, as well as a playful and happy expression that highly benefits our relationship with ourselves and with our partner(s). The more we know about our sexuality, the more pleasure we can have in every aspect of our lives.

3) What can people who attend this workshop expect to learn?

Every single person who attends the workshop will walk away with a working knowledge of where their G-spot is located, what the state of its sensitivity is, and how to make it more sensitive. They will understand the many facets of ejaculating and where they are at with being able to ejaculate. They will identify their personal  ”next-step” in learning how to ejaculate. And there is more! Because you can literally SEE the G-spot with the naked eye, men and women will be able to finally put to rest the question ‘where is it located’ and get down to the business of starting to enjoy the G-spot’s unique pleasures. Now that is progress!

4)  What led you to start teaching workshops?

I strongly feel it is my mission in life to get every woman in the western world to learn how to ejaculate. Why? No part of a woman’s sexuality should be silenced or so severely misunderstood.  Quality of life and relationships suffer, including physical health. I love celebrations, and learning to ejaculate is a joyful event! My workshops teach the techniques and information in my book, Female Ejaculation and the G-Spot.

5) What draws you to work in sexual education and health?

People are shedding their body phobias and sexuality ignorance that we inherited culturally from previous generations. In the doing, they are hungry for knowledge. Since I have immersed myself in every single aspect of female sexuality since 1981, I have much to offer people in their process of erotic self-discovery and restoration of their sexual-physical health and well-being. I strongly feel this is the best ‘work’ a person could do for themselves, and I want to support that journey to sexual fitness.

6) Do you have a website? A blog? A place where I can learn more about you?

People just starting their process of sexual discovery often have questions for me, so I am making myself available for one-hour consultations in Toronto while I am visiting on October 6-8. Please e-mail me through my website, www.deborahsundahl.com.  For more information about me, see my publicity or bio pages on my website, or watch one of my videos on female ejaculation.

7)  What’s something interesting about your career that I might not know?

Was part of the “Bloom in Women’s Erotica” that started in the early 1980’s - a political movement of women speaking out for the first time about their sexual needs, desires and pleasure. This movement has grown into the huge participation that we see today of women (and couples) taking a healthy interest in their sexuality - including freely shopping for their needs at women-owned erotica stores!
