Apparently There are 12 Female Orgasms - And This Is How To Have Them All

If you had asked me how many different types of orgasms there were when I was 19, I probably would have said “…there are different types?”.

Sadly, like many young women, the only type of orgasm I knew about back then was the kind I was habitually faking.

But then I bought my first sex toy, and started being more vocal about what I needed in bed, and, because of this, I’ve learnt that there are at least 12 distinct types of orgasms that women can have.

I’ve not had all of them yet, mind you. But to paraphrase my good friend 50 Cent, this year my plan is to get off or die trying.

If you, too, are curious about this kind of 'Dirty Dozen', then just keep reading to find out what they are, and how you can have them.

Pearls are known for being sophisticated and elegant – think Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's or that famous painting of the Girl with a Pearl Earring.

But pearls can also be super sexy. Not convinced? Check out this gorgeous crotchless pearl thong.

I'd had my eye on it for a while, so after working through some body image issues, I decided to treat myself to some lingerie to improve my confidence.

I used to think that you needed a 10/10 body with no jiggly bits or cellulite to wear lingerie, but when my discreetly packaged box from Lovehoney arrived, I forgot all my inhibitions and ran upstairs to try it on.

Here's what happened when I wore my pearl panties for the first time.
