Product Description

Based on the book with the same name, this remarkably powerful video uses detailed demonstrations to help women learn to achieve orgasm. The intimacy of the Becoming Orgasmic program is shared between the woman in the video, her partner, and you. The viewer is also invited to watch as she successfully tests the effectiveness of the program through explicitly portrayed exercises. About women -- but aimed directly at both partners -- this video guides women into an appreciation of their own sexuality, while showing how male partners can offer assistance and support in reaching orgasm.

5.0 out of 5 stars AASECT Sex Therapist gives thumbs up, November 28, 2002

By	Roz VanMeter "passion coach" (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Better Sex Video: Becoming Orgasmic [VHS] (VHS Tape)

After 24 years as a marriage counselor, AASECT certified sex therapist, and online sexuality coach...I found this video to be the best yet for helping women understand and enjoy their sexuality. The real people on the video are an actual loving couple, so there is nothing prurient or porno about the film. Using this video and the companion book of the same name, my women clients have become less inhibited, more relaxed and sensual. Some were already orgasmic but sexually avoidant -- the story helped them learn how to talk about sex with their husbands. I highly recommend this video!

2.0 out of 5 stars Watch Someone Read The Book, September 26, 2003

By	M. Rinehart (Illinois) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I imagine the book Becoming Orgasmic might be pretty good & actually helpful. It seemed like it had some good ideas from what I could tell as the actress on the video read it outloud. This video consisted of watching a couple go through the processes / exercises in the book - listening to her thoughts, and watching her complete the exercises. It wasn't very helpful at all, especially since it couldn't include all the tips or instructions given in the book. I'm not really sure what I was suppose to get out of it. It might be slightly benefical if you also ordered the book but I doubt it.

Also the book and video are geared towards women who have never had an organism. If you are even slightly orgasmic these will not be of any value to you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Keep an open mind, March 27, 2006

By	S. Meads (Clearfield, UT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Better Sex Video: Becoming Orgasmic [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a good video that will help women become orgasmic if they follow the steps that are in it. It is a bit outdated and my husband and I especially were distracted by the 80's clothes. I thought it was good that they used an ordinary woman, not a porn star or super model for this video. I think the video would be more beneficial in combination with the book. For those who do not believe in masterbation, this is not the video for you unless you can get passed that and keep an open mind. I found this video beneficial to see that other women may have the same issues and same hang ups about being a sexual being (ie. religion).

This video does follow a couple that is having sexual issues because the woman is sexually frustrated and hasn't ever reached orgasm. Through some of the exercises she is to look at her body, decide what she likes and doesn't like, contemplate how religion and parents have shaped how she feels about sex, and then she goes through some exercises to explore her body. While going through these exercises you can hear her thought which I felt were helpful because I would probably think the same things.

Overall it is a decent video I just felt that it only touched lightly and too lightly on the religious aspect of a persons make-up and feelings about sexuality and what they feel is right or wrong. If you aren't religious this won't bother you. If you are suffering from difficulty reaching orgasm I recommend this video, try the exercises and keep and open mind.
