Carlin Ross

I started my career in law and resisted going into “sex” until I was 32 and my intention to create a lifestyle brand for women put me on the front page of the NY Times.
It was no accident that I ended up at Betty Dodson’s door to interview her about the current state of feminism and women’s sexuality. Our connection was instantaneous.
It’s been ten years and I can’t imagine who I would have been had it not been for Betty and Bodysex. She has been mother to us all. Welcome to Bodysex.com. We hope to read your comments and maybe see you in one of our Bodysex circles.

The Basic Structures of Your Vulva
Betty has championed the distinction of "vulva" vs "vagina" for decades and there's a very important reason. Your vulva is your clitoral glans, inner and outer labia and your vaginal opening. Your clitoris exists solely for pleasure. Women can enjoy multiple...
The Range of Vulva Styles
