There was nothing to let me know why on earth anyone would want to do such a silly thing. When I was growing up-and this was in the 1950s, I’m 74 now-my sex education consisted of, ‘This is how girls get pregnant and here’s why you shouldn’t do it.’ My father was a gynecologist and this is what he thought was all of sex education for me. Here’s a portion of our conversation from June, 2018. So today we’re going to celebrate the mighty clitoris by looking back on a few unforgettable stories from past Girl Boner interviews and episodes, starting with Joan Price, a sex educator, author and filmmaker who recalls when even the tip of the clitoris wasn’t mentioned.

She had found that modern medical science had been making a huge mistake: the clitoris wasn’t only a small “button” on the vulva. Helen O’Connell, a urologist in Melbourne, authored a study called Anatomy of the clitoris.
