When Self-Love Became Revolutionary
Picture a gallery in 1968, next to the Whitney Museum, where over 8,000 people crowded in two weeks to see something unprecedented: large charcoal drawings of people making love. The artist, Betty Dodson, had expected outrage. Instead, strangers began confessing their deepest sexual secrets to her. One mother hurried her daughter away from what the child innocently called "people wrestling." But most visitors lingered, transfixed, then opened up about their own sexual histories. The message was unmistakable: people were starving for honest conversations about sexuality. This hunger would transform Dodson from a classically trained fine artist into "The Mother of Masturbation"-a title she tried repeatedly to resign from, only to discover the world wasn't ready to let her go. Masturbation isn't a consolation prize for those without partners-it's the lifelong love affair we have with ourselves. This radical reframing emerged at the end of the 1960s when Dodson discovered that guilt-free self-pleasure dramatically improved her entire sex life. The benefits are staggering: sexual satisfaction regardless of relationship status, safe outlets for teenagers, alternatives during pregnancy or illness, relief from menstrual cramps, a natural sleep aid, and the ultimate safe sex practice.
