It’s not often you get to see a giant golden clitoris on the stage at the Sydney Opera House, but this blog can deliver the goods. I guess technically it was Amanda Palmer and Alli Sebastian Wolf who delivered the goods, the Guardian newspaper by proxy, and this blog by proxy of proxy. But whatever. All those who don’t read the Guardian or live in Sydney, you’re welcome.
The associated article has a number of interesting facts. The one that really caught my eye was that the clitoris ‘is the only part of the human body that never ages’. That seems suspect. I assume most ladies do no have a Tardis down their pants, so it’s not actually time travelling. Most clitori are probably the same age as their owners. I guess they mean it doesn’t decay with age. Although that seems suspect as well – how do you define decay? I can think of a fair number of body parts that keep working till you die. The clitoris does apparently grow over time, so if we’re looking for things that get bigger but keep working, my stomach would be another good candidate.
Anyway, quibbles aside, I love the idea of a giant glittering clitoris appearing on stage. More events should have that. You couldn’t have paid me to watch the inauguration on Friday, but if there’d been a giant glittery clitoris appearing behind the pussy grabbing pres, I might just have tuned in.
I’m afraid I’ve no source for this tongue on clitoris action.
“Not aging” certainly hasn’t been my experience. Perhaps the nerve bundle at the core of a clit doesn’t deteriorate with age, but the skin covering the clit (and all other parts of the body, erogenous or not) certainly get thinner and more fragile. The result is that “friction” which is somewhat required for stimulation, tends to make these parts of the body sensitive and even sore during sexual activity way sooner than when we were younger.
Whereas younger women may have 4, 6, 8 or more orgasm’s in a short period of time, once you reach the 50’s things slow down and by the 60’s most women are lucky to manage 2 before pieces parts are “worn out” for the evening.
Skill, timing and a light touch in servicing such lovely ladies becomes more important with age.
