The clitoris is essential to the female sexual arousal system. However, many couples and women themselves need support in gaining sexual health education. The clitoris has both internal and external pleasure receptors. A female’s clitoris will swell and become engorged when she is sexually aroused similarly to a male’s penis getting erect. For many females, kissing, breast and nipple play, full body massages, and teasing around the inner thigh and low belly areas is important before her clitoris is touched. Many women enjoy having the tease and build up. A female’s sexual, romantic, and intimate partner can learn about how to create desire.
How can a female’s sexual partner build her sexual desire back up?
In a way, a female’s sexual partner can make her want it badly by teasing her. When a female deeply wants her clitoris touched, she may thrust her hips or do what may seem like wiggling. By kissing, touching the inner thighs and low belly first, a female’s clitoris has time to become engorged before being touched.

A female’s romantic partner or spouse can learn how to support sexual desire and the build up in Florida intimacy and couples therapy.
How to touch a female’s clitoris to support sexual pleasure?
The clitoris feels good when sexually stimulated with touch, a vibrator, a mouth, or hands. The clitoris is very sensitive, so it should not be touched without any foreplay. There are about 8,000 nerve endings only for sexual pleasure, where as a male’s penis only has about 4,000 nerve endings. Think of a female’s clitoris as a mini penis, with double the sexual pleasure nerve endings in a condensed area.
A female needs other areas of her body to be touched and caressed before her clitoris is touched. It can be uncomfortable for a female partner if her clitoris is touched too soon, without adequate foreplay. A female may become turned off, frustrated, or have a less than optimal reaction when her clitoris is touched too soon. It can be jarring, uncomfortable, and the opposite of sexual pleasure to feel rushed.
