Closing the Pleasure Gap

Research has found that far fewer women than men are having orgasms during sex.  When we look at sex and orgasms more specifically, the vast majority of women do not orgasm from vaginal penetration alone. Most women can only experience orgasm with clitoral stimulation. So, what can we do to close this pleasure gap and have more (and better!) orgasms? 

During this episode we talk with Alex Fine, co-founder of Dame Products, who is on a mission to close the pleasure gap by creating toys for sex - with women in mind. Dame’s first product, the Eva, has won multiple design awards. It’s a hands-free vibrator that gives women clitoral stimulation during penetrative sex - unlike anything else on the market. And while this is amazing - she found herself challenged in her ability to advertise her product, while male-focused companies with sexual messages had no problems advertising. Women’s sexual health is an important and integral part of our overall health - and women like Alex Fine are helping to revolutionize women’s sexual health.
