Dear Dr. Dodson,

Well! Three months ago I purchased your awesome book, Sex for One, off Grand Opening's website I'd heard your name when I went to a performance of "The Vagina Monologues" in NYC. I also purchased my very first vibrator. An orange number called "The Zippy." Of course I didn't use either tool for quite some time, as my then-boyfriend expressed an awful hostility toward my new sex toy.

Eventually, I cracked the book and read a good deal of it aloud to him, prompting him to acknowledge his own insecurities about his ability to please me, and his "jealousy" of the vibrator.

After reading more about masturbation and Goddess spirituality, I had another burst of courage and threw off the shackles of yet another fully committed relationship to try my hand at dating and making out with whomever strikes my fancy.

Today I wandered down to the Charles River and began reading your book again. The sun was shining, a warm breeze was blowing, and countless beautiful boys jogged past.

I was overcome with happiness as I read Sex for One. Finally, permission to indulge in my desires! I finished it and hurried back to my bedroom. I turned the lights off, opened the windows, washed the dust off the vibrator, and got down with my bad self, just as the Boston Pops began playing a free outdoor concert right across the street.

I came twice in 15 minutes, and it was so much fun! I'm so grateful for your gutsy, bold work. I'm 19, and I hope to conduct my career as brilliantly as you've conducted yours. Thank you so much! You rock!

Love,
D.S.
