I am a nineteen year old female living in Southern California. Years ago, when I was barely in elementary school, I was physically and sexually abused.
Though I believe I've moved past those issues, I notice that try as I might, I can't have an orgasm. I want to know how I would move beyond this problem and continue with my daily life.

Being as the show is fiction, I can't say it would really work, but it sounds good. So try and learn how to pleasure yourself first. [ qotsa369's advice column | Ask qotsa369 A Question ]

Relax and enjoy the sensation. If you are trying to get off to the penetration alone... stop it! Most women can't get off on penetration (not even the ones who can "o") what you need to do is find what makes you hot there is nothing wrong with giving instructions when they are given correctly. If you are alone and you just want one by yourself then just "explore". I hope you find your "o"
I hope I helped [ ktsu0723's advice column | Ask ktsu0723 A Question ]
Altazuma answered Tuesday March 8 2005, 10:46 pm: Sexual abuse at a young age can often come back to haunt you. Moving on is never quite as easy as we would like. Regardless, unless it is in the back of your mind when you are having sex now, I doubt that it is the cause of a failure to orgasm. As one of the other answer stated, some women have considerable difficulty until they are in their twenties or even never. It does not entirely stop you having a thoroughly enjoyable sex life and does nto need to hinder your relationships. Just relax and be open with your partners and let everything happen naturally. Maybe it will and maybe it wont, but either way do not let this issue dictate how you lead your life. [ Altazuma's advice column | Ask Altazuma A Question ]

MaxwellsSilverHammer answered Tuesday March 8 2005, 8:01 pm: It is an entirely psychological problem that happens to many rape/sexual assualt victims.
If you haven't gone to one or received some form of therapy, you probably won't be able to get over it yourself.
