"What about Girl Boners?" August first wondered about this in grade school. While she didn't realize it then, that curiosity set the stage for her eventual career. Throughout that work, she's learned a great deal about obstacles in the realm of femme sexuality. She's also heard many questions about arousal, a topic Dr. Megan has a lot to say about, given her nearly two decades as a sex therapist.

All of these feelings are valid. One thing's for darn sure. We need more conversations and education about it.
