I had never heard the word clitoris...

Do you remember when you first read “Our Bodies, Ourselves”? Tell us your story!I first read OBOS at a women’s group meeting my sophomore year in college. I was 19 years old, and had never heard the word clitoris. I owe my first orgasm to OBOS picture, description, and encouragement for self pleasuring. Throughout the years, I have bought countless copies of OBOS for birthday presents for 16 year old women in my life — and have referred to it throughout my personal life and career. Happy 40th anniversary!
