Women who orgasm regularly are healthier, can think more clearly and are more likely to be successful at work, according to The UK’s first Orgasm Coach Dr Lisa Turner.

“Orgasms are the ultimate luxury, although many women see them as totally unnecessary,” says Dr Turner, who claims that orgasms are the most fundamental way for women to raise their energy, increase their health and concentration and perform better at work. But with reports claiming that over 50% of the female population cannot achieve orgasm, Dr Turner warns that women could even be doing damage to their bodies and their careers by not ‘letting go’.

“When a women can’t achieve orgasm, it is a significant energy drain for her. Women who cannot orgasm usually don’t love themselves enough, are afraid to let go, or afraid to be vulnerable and many are underperforming at work or in business as a result of these underlying issues. My job is to help them overcome the emotional problems so they can love themselves, become free from inhibitions and just relax”, says Dr Turner, who runs training and coaching sessions for women wanting to increase their energy and charisma by having better orgasms.

Dr Turner claims that there are five forms of abuse, which can prevent women from achieving orgasm ranging from social isolation, psychological and financial problems through to sexual and physical abuse, but that once they can break through these barriers, they will be able to live more fulfilling and successful lives. In her book due out later this year Turner explains the fundamental link between increased energy and power that leads to a successful career.

“People are naturally attracted to energy. In fact, most power is achieved through sexual energy (think Nigella Lawson and Hilary Clinton). Powerful women have an “X” factor that goes beyond looks. Whilst men lose their energy through orgasm, women are empowered by them and gain clarity of thought. I work with lots of businesswomen who want to achieve more success in business and often, this is the primary stumbling block in their path”, says Dr Lisa.

She adds that orgasms get better and easier with age. More information can be found at www.theorgasmcoach.com

Pricasso, that debonair penis painter from the Gold Coast who looks like a cross between Rod Stuart and the Mad Hatter, has submitted his first painting for this year's Archibald Prize.

His moody pop art rendition of Sexpo hypnotist, Mark Anthony, is pretty damn good in itself but when you consider the fact that he painted it entirely with his penis dipped in paint, it transcends the normal boundaries of 'art' and arrives at a more intriguing place. Just what that is will ultimately be left to the judges of Australia's premier art comp but we're tipping it will be a big hit with the storemen this year.

Pricasso's art and his legend go before him (as does his..er..paintbrush). His works are now being seriously collected not just for their unique freak show appeal (he's the ONLY penis painter in the world) but also for the quality of art that he produces. Already his works have shot up in value from a few hundred dollars to a couple of thousand each. When all other investments are shrinking, Pricasso's are expanding!

If you'd like to have a look at his current portfolio and puchase an original painting before they get out of reach, visit the Sex Party website and go to the Gallery section.

It was sex that made Bettina Arndt famous

As one of Australia's first sex therapists and editor of Forum magazine, Bettina spent her early career talking about sex on television and radio.

She went on to become a leading social commentator, writing features and columns for publications across the country and working on government advisory committees covering issues from family law to childcare and ageing. Read some of Bettina's articles.

Now she has returned to her first love and has just completed an exciting new book on sex. The Sex Diaries looks at how ordinary couples cope with the tensions of managing their sex supply. She has had ninety eight couples keeping diaries for her, writing about their daily negotiations over sex. Who feels like having sex? Who doesn't? And how do they cope if one wants it more than the other? The Sex Diaries is published by Melbourne University Press and will be available 1 March, 2009, in all good bookstores.

Nina Hartleys Guide to Pregnant Sex. Her latest movie offers a sex-positive approach to that oft-neglected subject.

I flew to Minneapolis last month to celebrate the fifth anniversary of feminist-women-owned sex shop the Smitten Kitten (smittenkittenonline.com). Co-founder and owner Jennifer, with her partner Davis, just had a baby, who was then two and half weeks old. Usually they're up to their eyeballs in dildo harnesses and butt plugs, but this trip, these two sex activists were all about cloth diapers and breast-feeding. Their baby was one of the most chilled-out infants I've ever met—he even slept as we partied at a local lesbian bar! The proud parents were so funny: They asked Penny Flame and Adrianna Nicole—stars of my porn reality series Chemistry and special guests at the store's big anniversary party—to pose for some pictures with their son for the baby book! I mean, I'm sure there's a page for "My First Photo With Porn Stars," right? Several people I know have recently gotten pregnant, and as they pore through resources on every aspect of being knocked up, there's one topic that's still challenging to find clear, sex-positive information about: sex.

It makes me think of one of the first essays I read on the subject, in a book by Susie Bright (susiebright.com)—she talks frankly and specifically about some of the sexual changes she experienced while she was pregnant in the '80s. For one thing, she found she couldn't masturbate the same way: "I was stunned and a little panicky. My engorged clitoris was different under my fingers; too sensitive to touch my usual way, and what other way was there?"
