Eliza: I’ve never had an orgasm. Catherine Stewart: From intercourse? Eliza: I’ve never had sex. [pause] I tried once. And then again. It hurt....I don’t think I’m normal. [pause] I just don’t like the whole...process. Catherine Stewart: An orgasm is simply a series of muscle contractions. That’s it. It comes from manipulating the clitoris.
