    Ladies, I need A LOT of help.

    Firstly, let me thank all of you who decide to read this, and a special thanks to those who post suggestions for me.

    I am a 22 year old female who has been sexually active for 8(eight) years. In that 8 years, I have had 1(one) orgasm. I don't know if this will help, but I just made a hasty retreat from a 6(six) year relationship involving a man whom I thought I loved.

    The first problem: I have tried masturbation on hundreds of occasions--with toys, with my hands and with a partners hands. I cannot achieve orgasm this way. I have massaged my clit, played with my g-spot and I can't orgasm. Anal sex holds absolutely no interest for me.

    The second problem: Sex has almost almost no interest for me. I can read about sex or role play sex with a very close friend of mine, and I will get horny, but thinking about sex itself turns me off. Watching porn does absolutely nothing for me.

    So, what I'm asking is: Help. How do I achieve orgasm, or get interested in sex with another person? I find men and women attractive but lean more towards the male gender. I do want to get out there in the dating field and if something more comes of it, I don't want it to be just "uhg". Suggestions? Comments? (And please keep in mind, I have no money, am currently without a job and refuse to take pills for anything that isn't my joint pain.) Thanks again everyone for the help.

    Have you ever experimented with other women ?? Could you maybe more inclined to women and are just not admitting it to yourself ??

      I have had sexual experiences with women and it was pretty much the same as it was when I am with a man. Nothing was better and nothing was worse. However, I find that I am generally more attracted to the hard planes of the male figure and men in general.

        Male or female friend? What about thinking about sex turns you off?

          Male friend.
          The whole thing about sex. And masturbation. I can get hot and bothered and feel like I need to orgasm, but once I start touching--it goes away. Same with sex. I can wake up in the mood and start to make the effort and BAM--there goes the whole enchilada right off the side of the bed. It's not really the thought of sex but the actual motions to get there. Foreplay? alright, yea I get it and i can get a little hot and bothered by it, but once sex comes into the picture it's gone. I just sigh, get up and go about my business.

            Have you been 'caught' masturbating as a child? Has anything ever happened that can make you afraid of sex/physical pleasure? Has anyone ever told you something hurtful about your body? Did you feel it was 'wrong' to masturbate as a chid? Were your parents strict about sex and relationships?

            Sounds like it's something mental/emotional that blocks this and it didn't come up by itself.

                I was thinking that.
                But the answer to all of those questions, except maybe the body thing, is a big, fat NO. My mother was actually a professional belly dancer and my father was a truck driver. They both loved me very much and when it came time, had THE talk with me about sex, babies and the like. They weren't strict and I never masturbated as a child. In fact, I didn't even masturbate until I was 16. I started having sex when I was 14 but never got any pleasure from it.

                As for the body thing: I think it might be a self-image type of issue. For instance, I shave the legs, the pits and the jayjay because I find that body hair on myself is unsightly. However I have no problem with hair on other people. (The ex is in the running for the next position as Chubakka) And while I am a little overweight, that has never stopped my from trying to obtain some kind of pleasure and I have no problem getting naked in front of others due to my weight.

                  No, I don't. In fact, the whole idea of a man finishing inside is rather arousing. Unfortunately it's getting it on all the way that just doesn't do it for me.
