Squirt, Hydration, and Shame

Can you actually "give" an orgasm to someone or "make them cum"?

Join us on this episode of Shameless Sex as we dive into the world of self-love, partnered play, and the pursuit of ultimate pleasure with the legendary Nina Hartley. As we celebrate Masturbation May, Nina shares her insights on the importance of self-exploration and how it can transform your relationships and overall satisfaction.

Here's what you can expect to learn from this juicy conversation:

* The surprising truth behind the phrase "giving someone an orgasm" and why Nina prefers "trading" orgasms instead

* How to shift your focus from the destination to the journey, and stay present in the moment

* Nina's top tips for helping both penis and pussy owners reach new heights of pleasure

* The importance of individual agency in sex and what Nina means by "the individual is the smallest unit of sex"

* What's new and exciting in Nina's world, including her latest venture, nina.live/nina.com, and how you can work with her

As a sex education icon with over four decades of experience, Nina brings a unique blend of clinical expertise, real-world experience, and plainspoken clarity to the conversation. With a background in nursing and a career spanning adult media, education, and advocacy, Nina is dedicated to promoting sex-positive feminism, free speech, and harm reduction.

Tune in for a conversation that's equal parts informative, entertaining, and inspiring. You'll leave feeling empowered, educated, and maybe even a little bit more shameless. And as a teaser, get ready to rethink your approach to pleasure and intimacy - and maybe even discover a new appreciation for the power of solo play.

More about Nina Hartley: Nina Hartley® is an American sex educator, author, speaker, activist, and performer whose career spans more than four decades.

After earning a nursing degree from San Francisco State University, Hartley transitioned into media and education while continuing to draw on her medical background. In addition to her adult media career, she has lectured at universities, spoken on public panels, and advocated for honest, shame-free sex education focused on communication, consent, emotional literacy, and respect for boundaries.
