What good sex means to singles in America?

So every year around February, this study comes out, the singles in America survey. And I found it really interesting this year. So let me run through a few things right now, so you know all about what good sex or great sex really means. So this study found that 83% of singles, regardless of sexual orientation, ranked a caring and enthusiastic partner as a top two indicators of good sex, which totally makes sense. I'm always saying enthusiasm so important you guys are always

saying like give me a tip, give me oral sex tips, give me you know tips for missionary and all that's important and I love giving you tips, but if you're not into it and you're just lying there That's not gonna be great sex. So enthusiasm is key. The other thing that came up for good sex is someone who's a good kisser That matters and someone who helps them achieve orgasm So if you've been listening to the show, this should come as no surprise to you that Communication is key and so are orgasms. So it's really back to the basics You don't even have to buy special props or anything to be a great lover. So you can learn to have great sacks, which I think was really important in this that

like really you want to take care of your partner and I'm doing okay. You guys knew this already, right? But I love when it's reinforced. This study also found that singles have definite turn-offs including this one was kind of concerning to me too much talking. I mean, I talk all the time. I guess I dirty talking bad. I'm not like covering like my day and what I had for lunch, but apparently for men and for women too much talking, no passion, little movement, bad kissing, and ultimately not

saying I love you are deal breakers and turnoffs. And when it comes to bad sex, this was interesting. Apparently women are not gonna wait around for sex to get better. So while many singles actually believe that sex improves after a few sexual romps with a new partner, women are 70% less tolerant of bad sex

than men. So when I first read this, I was like, uh oh, the alarm's gonna go off. Guys are gonna be like, she saw my penis. I knew it was too small or she's probably pissed that I, you know, I'd jack you late too quickly. No, no, no. If you go back to the thing that I said at the beginning, it just means you probably weren't paying attention to her pleasure and you probably weren't communicating by your needs. So there you go. Has nothing to do with your penis per say, but everything to do with communication. And what I think about this is like, it's a new era.

Women, you know, we're not relying on anyone else financially, we can take care of ourselves and we're super sexually empowered. So we're not gonna wait around for you guys to figure out that our orgasms matter as well. And the survey also found the best age for sex in women is 66 and for men, it's 64. So there is a misconception that younger people are having better sex,

but apparently that isn't the case. And I just think this has to do with feeling comfortable in your body. You know, the older you get, I don't think you have to wait for your 60 to feel like you're having great sex, but the more comfortable you can get in your body, express your needs, understand what you need, the better sex you're going to have. So this all makes sense, I hope this inspired you to get out there and keep having amazing sex, because it only gets better. Okay, next, I hope you'll enjoy the interview with Bruce and Melody Mureson, the founders of Wevibe. I recorded this live the joe Lou Booth at the adult manufacturer's novelty expo. It's that bi-annual conference that I go to, where the sex toy manufacturers and brands share their new toys and accessories and sex innovations and we have a blast, we post it all over social media.

You'll hear a little background noise, but more importantly, you'll hear one of the top sex toy companies began from the perfect combination of dedication, ingenuity and passion for bringing couples closer together. And then I'll be answering your email questions so stay tuned and enjoy the show. I'm coming to you live from the Joe Bo booth. I'm with Bruce and Melody Morrison. They are the co-founders of Wevibe. They're rock stars here at this conference. They're like the sunniness share of the sex toy industry. They created this amazing toy 10 years ago. 10 years ago. 10 year anniversary coming up. Okay, so I need to know the background.

All I know is that you either even married, correct? We are married. 3.2 kids and a dog, yes. Okay. And how long have you guys been together? That's a melody question. It will be 28 years married this year. Okay, 20 years married. And so I was supposed to say not long enough.

That is a good, you know, you've trained a lot. Tell me about the, what were you guys doing in your lives big before we vibe? Like I want to know how it happened. How you came up with this. Well, we had both been at Nortel's a high tech company in Canada. And during the sort of crash of 2000

and subsequent years, it was about 2003 that Nortel was going extinct. And so we knew we had to find a new career and basically said okay it's time for something completely different and we think that... Sex toys! Sex toys and alcohol and gambling were a recession proof. Recession proof, okay. And so, Melody chose sex toys, so it's nice. Now, I knew I had married a bit of an inventor, because on our first date,

he actually showed me this, you know, file box, and it had some of his drawings on it from the past. Okay. So, what was the invent- What were you inventing then? Oh, just little electronic things in the past. Got it. So you were trying to think, yeah, like sex, drugs, alcohol, and then you think, well I picked sex.

And then tell me, had you had previous experience with toys? Products. No, we didn't. Okay. It just came up in conversation on a long drive back from New York City and knowing Bruce's background in electronics and inventions, it was kind of, it was just a, I guess we kind of just said to ourselves, well, whatever it is in this new creation that he was going to do, it was going to move or go buzz.

Okay. Right. Which we kind of looked at each other and smiled and said, what about a sex toy? And that's where it started. All right. Because... But how did you research? How did you figure out what that toy was going to be?

Well, we knew right away in an industry. You have to pick something that's unique. And so we said, what would we want in a toy? And we asked ourselves the question, is there something for couples? And that's where it started. And it just became an idea as something that would be worn between two people that would stimulate the woman and man.

And that would just fit between people while they're having sex. Which is so smart because really it is the couples toy. It is the first couples toy on the market. And it really was innovative because there is still that stigma that people have around toys. Now it's kind of better. I think because of your products,

you guys have definitely raised the bar. You always create high quality products and you're constantly innovating. But at the time, it was like, yeah, there's still that like this toy is gonna replace me. My girlfriend's gonna leave me if we bring toys in. I'm like, I don't think anyone's ever left anyone

for a sex trip, but you knew couples. Can you teach me? Well, I think the Wevi was actually saved many more. I think so too. Well, yeah, obviously, right? No, obviously, but it has since then, I hear this all the time. Absolutely.

So what kind of research went into it? So like, like if you had you do his mind, I mean, your own sex life at the time? We're not allowed to actually talk about that. You can't talk about the research. I'm just kidding. That's the best part I would think. Let's try a sex story and have lots of sex, right? Well, actually we have a lot of volunteers that do. I'm sure all your friends are like, yeah, oh yes. Well help. Yep. And I think that one of the aspects that made the Wevi catch on was that it's non-falloc and it doesn't really replace

the male. It augments sex and it's very small, it's the size of your thumb and it just fits in discreetly. So, men are not intimidated by it and women love it. Right, they love it. So, we've talked about a lot of the show, but it's the C shape that a woman. I mean, you guys, I want you guys to explain, but it's the C-shape that a woman, I mean, you guys, I want you guys to explain how, and then I want to go back for a second, but

explain to us, in case you're just, you haven't used a Wevibe yet, or the Wevibe couples toy, and we talk a lot about the sink and the pit, how would you explain it? C-shape fits inside. And I say it all the time, so I want to hear the founders say it. It's kind of like- Well, one of our taglines in the beginning to help people understand the toy was it was a dual stimulator that is warm while you make love. And that was the easiest way for people to get that image in their mind of how this toy

was to work. It was both a clitoral and a G-spot stimulator that was warm while you make gloves. Right, so... And a lot of the research went into finding a shape and a feeling and a flexibility that was low profile. So very thin and small and tapered so that it would fit into the anterior wall of the vagina and stay in place during sex. And then the exterior part was was again small and fit between things to stay to the way and so that's from my engineering perspective on things that's where a lot of work went into to get the most power and to the smallest spaces and to make it flexible and comfortable. So what did the earlier like versions of like was it you're mind. So what did the earlier versions of like,

was it, you're mind like, telling them they can wear together, like maybe it would be a, you know, did you have something like with Velcro that maybe attached? You know what I mean? Like, was there other versions of it? Like, well, that could be, she could be wearing this

if something, like a belt went around her and then there was like a bullet vibrator on her clothes. Like, I can just, Well, well, that was the butterfly. Right. It has been around for a long, long time. And the problem with the butterfly we saw was that it moved around too much in it.

There was no real reason for it to stay in place. And so that's why the Wevibe was worked well because the fact that it was actually into the vagina and the tutorial area that it just nestled in there and stayed put. So how was the process of making it just nestled in there and stayed put. So how was the process of making it? How long did that take? It's actually the coming different versions were there.

So it was basically six years from the idea and the patents went in a couple of years later and then incorporated in 2004. And our first sale was 2008. And so by this time we had spent our life savings, mortgage the house, and borrowed money from friends and family. And we deranged actually with one of our good neighbors in case we went belly up, we're gonna live in their basement.

Oh my God. And that's because you really wanted to make this, you're like, I want to do this product. Go bigger, go home. So was there ever time when you were, did to bring you closer to get, how did it impact your... I think if it had failed, it would have done the opposite of bringing us closer together. So it's a very dangerous thing to do.

It is very dangerous. We were lucky. And how did it change your relationship? Well, I think it's strengthened us in many ways. Bruce, he was passionate about it and began his inventive quest. He basically worked away on his own and one man designed it, both the electronics and the form and the molds. And I'd say we tag-teamed it through. We have three children and up the child and the dogs and the making of the toys. That's a lot.

Well, I mean, when I needed him, he came through as dad, but for the running to sports and everything, I sort of took care of the family and allowed him to continue with his quest. When it came time to marketing, then I stopped. And then, like, let's get this out there. So what was the first response as like in the industry? It was nothing like it.

It was just to go back on your previous question. I think it really is a true partnership. I think one of our reasons for success is to realize what one does well and what your partner does well. And really utilize that. It gives Melody as a great eye and a good sense for marketing and lots of the things. And I'm a guiver. So between the two of us and as the business rolled out and expanded, we continued to really

seek out people that did what we didn't do well. Not only working together as a couple of challenging but starting your own business where it sink or swim. I mean I can imagine what you guys have been through and then to actually have it enhanced it. You guys got through the hard parts. Now that there's not always challenges, but just going back to business here,

because that is such a true thing. When you're the entrepreneur and it's your idea, the classic thing, you'd be like, we can do it all ourselves and then it all, but to really realize where are my strengths where my weakness is and then you can both shine and bring in the right team. And I have to save working with your team

for a long time now. Officially, I remember thinking, I met you guys 10 years ago, you called into my radio show, which I loved. And it was late at night in Canada, I was like 11 p.m. in California, as everyone's going, you guys called in, and it was the first time I'd ever talked to you,

but your team is very impressive. Like everybody who works with you, but you know, I've had a chance to travel with them and aerophrame, you guys have really selected a great, great working for you. Yeah, very fortunate. Yeah, you are. So how what's that like so you realize that both of your strengths are and then to kind of bring

in the other. I think if you set a good example and yeah as I say find people with excellent skills that where you're short and they're strong. That is the thing. And I think give people the rope, give people you know the opportunity to shine on their own and take pride in what they're doing and not. I've started numerous businesses in the past and seeing a lot of other entrepreneurs struggle and it's often what they call founderitis where you have a real tendency of not wanting to let go and to stay involved in too many of the details and so it's very hard to let go of your baby and to back off but it's very hard to let go of your baby

and to back off, but it's the right thing to do for the business and it allows it to mature and grow. Yeah, but you've done a good job with that. And you still make all the toys. You guys still invent all of them. And what I've seen is that you don't just say, we gotta just do me 10 toys, it's your better to just whip something out

and get out of the market. You spend a lot of time. Years. Years on each product. Like years and years. Like you have an just whip something out and get out of the market. You spend a lot of time years on each product, like years and years, like you have an idea for something. And tell me about that process. Like I think that that is really raised the bar

for a lot of the other manufacturers, or it should. Oh, I think it has. I think that there's numerous manufacturers over the last decade that have clearly risen the whole. She's like, oh, look at those wee vibe. We gotta do something now. Well, it's not only us, there are so many others that I think

from an industry point of view, the whole presentation is much more women friendly as opposed to the smot and the triple X sort of side of things. And we've been very fortunate to have started this voyage right as the societal was becoming more and more accepting of sex toys and they're not seen as dirty or negative, but it's actually, I guess, societal permission to enhance people's sex lives. And I think that the attention to materials and toxics and the beauty of design, if you'll see it,

through on here there are hundreds and hundreds of beautiful toys and bright colors. A lot of things like the manufacturing of paying attention to noise and quiet. So really truly quality things because when we started this, I think the technology in the 2000 was basically 1970s technology. So it has really come a long way.

And now technologies to the point where now, you know, our ToysRoll cell phone app connected and are really trying to get up to the right first. We do have a really the leaders. I mean, that we connect app, we love. That is so brilliant. I mean, that's, we're talking about like enhancing intimacy

and bringing couples together. I love the we connect app. I mean, I think it's just, that's, we're talking about enhancing intimacy and bringing couples together. I love the way we connect out. I mean, I think it's just amazing that couples can be, you know, long distance. So, you know, in the next room, if they could actually control each other's pleasure, using their toys, it's just so smart. It's pretty cool.

Yeah, I don't know, and I was doing that. So, what else do you guys, is there anything you're working on now that we don't know about? Yeah, you guys, this year was a busy year because you had so many great partners come out. I was like, every day that's in the box. He's always working on something. You tell me. on now that we don't know about yet. This year was a busy year because you had so many great parents come out. I was like every day that any box is working on something. Are you telling?

Well, not as yet. But there are always big, exciting things coming. Yeah, and I think in terms of the process, it really is, and that's why we're here is to be inspired by what's going on and listen to people. And a big going back in terms of the success factors is to really, really listen. And I think that's what I've attributed a lot of our success is that the designer in

me listens to the woman in melody. And that's a big challenge just to find out how to translate something that's hard to define like sexual preferences and what feels good and what doesn't into a mechanical electron object. And so that's all about listening. And I think that's what we do here is listen. And we listen and look for holes. What could be done better?

What could be further enhanced or done completely differently. And so some of the products that we just have come out over the last year were, one of them was three years in development. Which one? The Wish. Oh, the Wish. And it is, but that's the way it goes. It was planned to be about a year, but it was three.

And then other products are sort of a year to two years, and it's because you want to get it right, and we only have a handful of products, and so we're trying to put everything we can into the few products that we do make. And I think that it's a long process. We don't realize it from the time you engineer something and design it and then make prototypes, we do it in Canada, in-house, we are all handmade and then we have a very good group of testers in the various backgrounds. Do you do the same, how does it happen? So they all use cinema prototype and then they all do-

And they feel we have scientifically feel, you know, questionnaires and forms that allow us to do data analysis on because humans all have different likes and dislikes and there's often a bimodal distribution where you've got half the population will like something and half the population won't and try and tease out what it is that people like and what it is that people don't like and that it just allows you so then you would go through another design and refinement stage and then finally getting it

into mass production and then the whole marketing side of things. So it's a very long process. Yeah, I mean, I love that you do, I don't know how many other brands really spend take that time. So I'm curious in these last 10 years, what have you learned about sexuality or couples,

it's a bit of a, that has surprised you. That's a good question. What? Hi, I have surprising, well, or is it surprising that it's actually a lot of common sense? So it's not surprising. No, but that's... And I'm sure it is.

You're like, oh, women and men, we get turned on different, whatever it is, you know. Yeah. Yeah. I can't think. I think one of the main things that we've seen change over the 10 years is how society is accepting of the the use of toys in relationship and that it actually spices things up and makes it more fun for

couples right and that was our original intention. We were quite a hip to the first show, the launch 10, 10, it'll be 10 years ago in April. Okay. And that was a surprise launch. And we arrived with our one product on the table. Did the two of you? I did. Three of us, there was one other helper, Hilda, she was our first employee. And we came to the show and sat our one product on the table.

And then what happened? What happened? We presented WeVive, basically basically to the world, right? And we had ladies going by the booth and it was a completely different seat shape from the market, yeah. Never seen it before and it wasn't until we actually turned it on and put it in their hand and you could see this look come over their face when we explain to them that it was worn while you make love.

Yeah, mind blown. Yeah. I remember getting mine. I was like, oh my god, I think it was one of the first like free toys I got on the mayor's tester toys, free test. Yeah. But that's how I was like, oh my god, this is amazing. I think Kaya would even be from good vibrations because I was living in San Francisco, told me

about it and then you sense it. And it really was. There was nothing like that. I kind of, I started getting nostalgic for that because it seems like there's a lot of things that have been done, but I feel like that was so innovative. But then all of your toys, even like your take, you know, the Nova and the Rape on the dual stimulation. I mean, and the, I mean, the fact that you were able

to find more G spots with those toys, it's amazing. I thought of something actually that was surprising that, and I'm still surprised by it in a good way, and that is that this whole industry is like a family. When you speak of Coyote and you saw her today, and it's so neat that all of these different companies are competitors, but yet they get together at these shows several times a year, and they all know one another, and I just think that's so neat that it's truly like a big family in this industry. I love that you're saying that I felt the same way I felt so when I walked into the day I thought the same thing I thought, God what a great industry work in and I feel like everybody here is

family and you know we all yeah we're all kind of doing the same things we want to have pleasure. I think at the end of the day there could be competitive products but we all want people to have pleasure so we're all like let's just bring more pleasure to the world so So let's have a drink. It's a much more exciting and making toasters for a living. Absolutely. So I have a question for you guys. I'm Bruce or Melody. What yeah, any trends that you see in the industry, what do you think is happening with sex tech

sex toys the next five, 10 years? Well, we're in Melody and I headed off to the CES show after this. Oh, fine. And that is specifically to look for technologies. And I think that, as I was saying, the sex toy industry used to be back in the 70s. And I really believe that over the next few years, we will see toys that have never existed before,

that have movement and stimulation mechanisms, and truly original things that are going to be happening. And I've seen a lot of progress in the last two or three years, and I think that's just going to continue to accelerate so that artificial intelligence, robotics, all of that is going to hit the sex story in the screen. I'm going to be biobsex robot. I'll test it. I'll test it.

Just for fun. Hey, yeah, there's got to be right. That's test fascinating. Well, I think that's cool that you go to see, yes, and you're like, how can we bridge this technology with products? So thank you both for being here. Is there a good news?

Was there pleasure? Co-founders, inventors, creators, Bruce and Melody. Thank you so much for being part of the family and the industry and really, really, truly raising the bar for everybody. So I hope you guys enjoyed that interview with Bruce andelody, and now we're gonna give a shout out to our sponsors,

Okay, this is from Claire. She's 24 in New York City. Hi Emily, I've been single most of my life. I've had relationships, but they ultimately ended. And I've become really good at being my own person having my own routine. As such, I've not had much experience in the bedroom and find myself making excuses to

avoid dating, sex, and getting close because of my fear of losing my current lifestyle as a single person. How do I help myself get out of my own head? Just go for it and ease my anxiety over having sex. I guess I want the best of both worlds. Claire. Okay, Claire, I read this a few times because you're asking a lot of different things here. And so, and I don't even know that you knew it. Here's a news flash. I think there's might be some intimacy issues going on here. I can totally relate to you that being single

feels really good. It feels powerful. You're in control of your own life and you feel, ah, if I get in a relationship, then I'm not going to be able to do my thing and have my own experiences. But you also mentioned that you had some fears around sex that you don't have a ton of experience with sex. So I can't decide if it's about sex or if that's really just afraid to get intimate and being a relationship with someone. But no matter what it is, let me tell you this, you don't have to lose yourself when

you're in a relationship. Okay. And I'm going to be honest, it took me a while to learn that. I really thought that being with someone took away my power, but we do some of our best growth as a human when we're in the context of a committed relationship. So when we're in a relationship that's open and communicative and honest, we actually didn't get through some of the stuff that's holding us back. So even if the people you're dating right now, Claire, you get into relationship or have sex,

we're kind of just communicating being vulnerable and being yourself because then you're going to learn how to do it when you decide that you want to get into maybe a more serious relationship. And you can also, if you don't have a lot of experience with sex, which again does not matter, it's all about what we learned about earlier in the show, enthusiasm being into it, and then also, you know, having compassion and communicating. So if you can do that, it's not about how much experience you have.

And sex can be more experiential in a long-term relationship because then you really trust your partner and you could explore your sexuality and sexual preferences. So I like clear that you're doing you, you're not obsessed with a relationship and finding the one,

but I also like you to be open to finding someone so maybe kind of look at what's really holding you back and then just see if it feels right. So you can go out there and start dating and you don't have to commit, but just put yourself out there, see how it feels, and I think you're gonna like what you find when you get into a relationship

and you can really have start having sex again and start working on yourself. It'll be a good time, I promise. Okay, this is Hope 28 from Illinois and she says, Hello, Emily, your show is the best, informative and saucy. I'm going to healthy relationship with a wonderful 31 year old. We've been dating for several months and about a month in my fellow found out that he may have a baby on the way with a girl he's dated for a few weeks last year. While the news is devastating, it did happen before we met.

Also, the father is unknown, so there's that detail. I'm not worried about his faithfulness. We both believe we have found the one. My concern is if the baby is his, how do we go from being a couple to a relationship of four? He wants to be a good father, and I want to be supportive, but I can't help admit that I'll have jealous feelings as he experiences such a life-changing thing with another woman.

Thank you, Hope. Wow, Hope, there's a lot to unpack with this one. So this is tricky. It's like, bam, I found the one. And he may or may not be the father. We have to wait for the paternity test. I get that there's a lot of anxiety and there's a lot of unknowns in this situation. And well, it could go either way. If you really

like this guy, it sounds like you both, you know, feel like you found the one. I think you just got to wait it out and see. And I want to go back to something you said here, which is I can't help but admit that I'll have jealous feelings. How do you know? Like, maybe you'll also be in love with this child and be a great stepmom or be a great co-parent with him. So I think a lot of times we should check our language about things that were predicting negative predictions into the future. You have no idea how you're gonna feel.

So, I just want you to check that because we don't know what's gonna happen. So rather than spend the next few months kind of obsessing about all these tragedies that can happen in the future, I would just work on strengthening your relationship with him right now because it sounds like you have a good thing going. I mean, jealousy's gonna happen no matter what relationships or it can happen, and we just have to learn how to deal with it. So, I wouldn't spend time in your mind circling this around and it'll just be a waste of time when you can really focus on enhancing your intimacy with your partner right now. And then you'll deal with the situation when you find out whether or not he's a father.

Please keep us posted because we all want to know. The last email is from Ashley 25 in Boston. Hi Emily, I've been seeing my boyfriend for about four months now and he's the best partner I've ever had in and out of the bedroom. He's the first person I've ever had in and out of the bedroom. He's the first person I've ever been with who puts my pleasure first. From the very first time we've had sex, he wanted to hold out so I could orgasm before he does, but I can't seem to achieve multiple orgasms. I can't even have multiple orgasms, not even when I masturbate. While I'm able to

continue having sex after I come once, I'm wondering what I can do to increase my chances of having more than one oh in a given session. We're super open with one another so I can bring anything into the bedroom and just try it. I don't know where to start. Any advice would be amazing, Ashley. Okay, Ashley, well congratulations on the great sex and a guy who's putting your pleasure first. I love all of that and I love that he's waiting for you to orgasm. And I also love that you can have one orgasm during sex because chances are good, you'll be able to have more.

So the reason why we often don't have multiple orgasms is because we really don't even know how. We know it's possible, but it seems like it's a loosive thing in the future. So I would say the best thing to do is to focus on it when you're alone. So when you're masturbating, flying solo, that's the best time to figure out, well, what exactly happens and how do I learn how to have a multiple orgasm?

But here's my best tips and some steps to get you there. So first, give yourself permission for pleasure. Like you're allowed to have pleasure, you're allowed to have as many orgasms as you want. So you got to relax into it. That's the key to multiples. So when you're alone in your room, and if you're wherever you want to join you for some mutual masturbation, that's awesome too. Enjoy the first orgasm.

So you had one, that's great. But the trick is to stay connected physically and emotionally while you take a break from the orgasm or however you orgasm. So if you're having sex, you might want to slow down, you might even want to pull out, start touching you all over your body, you know, just kind of put your hand over your vulva so you can just kind of breathe, but you still want to stay connected. And again, during masturbation, this might be a little bit easier. And you want to kind of master

this touch on your own. And since most women don't experience a lot of multiple orgasms through intercourse, because a lot of times our clitoris is too sensitive if you have a clitoral orgasm and we just can't take any more touch but that doesn't mean that you can't build up that energy again. So he might want to pull out or just move slower and you can start like indirectly stimulated in your clitoris or again you can touch your breasts move it hands all around your body and throughout all this well you're enjoying the glow of that one orgasm, you want to continue to breathe.

Because if you're doing your head and you're like, is the next one going to come? How is it going to happen? You're going to lose your mojo. So if you get overwhelmed, just focus on your breasts. Because when we breathe into our body, you guys, and this is important for even if you want to have one orgasm, it spreads throughout your whole body and it expands how much pleasure you can actually feel. And it also can enhance the intensity of your orgasm when you breathe. I can't tell you how many people, listeners and friends and people around the office are like, oh my god Emily,

I'm so glad you told me about breathing because now I breathe and when I breathe, I'm able to have more orgasms and my orgasms more intense. So never forget the breath. And they also don't put too much pressure on yourself because when we pressure ourselves, we all know what happens. We get out of the moment, we stop orgasming and we're just wondering when the next one is happening. So I think, again, when you're alone, it would be a great place just to masturbate, you know, using a vibrator is great.

I didn't learn a lot of multiple orgasms until I was on my own and then I'm able to bring it into a relationship. So just breathe, take the pressure off of your self, experiment, and I think it's totally possible. Let me know how it goes. Okay everyone, I hope you enjoyed the show. That was fun.
