It might not had been as lively as other talks, but she was brave enough to talk about it with confidence and objetivity. Nice Job!

[PluckySmurf]

As a person who's been single for more than a decade now, I've found my imagination to be my ultimate sexual partner. I truly applaud this presentation.

[vhayashi]

My mind and body are so connected that I can feel things happening (going off inside) by just thinking about them. People Don't even know how magical the female body is. I didn't experience this until I turned 40.

[MyraJaneEstoqueVlogs]

She looks familiar, oh, okay she was in a netflix series about pleasure. She’s really good at what she’s doing. What a brilliant woman!

I'm male, but I am primarily aroused by imagination rather than physical stimulus.

I can't agree with her more. If more couples would take their time out to put away their phones and ignore all the various social medias and stigmas - look into each other's eyes and value the five senses they'd be less divorces. Honestly, people would come to appreciate each other's bodies and the beauty of going on beautiful sexual field trips with one another the world would be filled with kinder, happier people. Don't know about you- but I love walking around with people guessing why I'm always in an amazing mood. It's how I choose to value this life and my gifts.

Remarkable person reading this.. It’s going to get better; all it is a season of opportunity to grow and be better than before. Challenging times are meant to strengthen us, not to break us. Success doesn’t define to what happened to us; it is how we choose to deal with our circumstances. The more you grow and develop as an incredible person as you are, the more things will change for the better. Forgive more (for you), be grateful for even the smallest things (we have it way better than someone else), choose love over ego, choose humility over ego (humility is strength), and finally, invest into new skills so that your future self will thank you. Our lives will change forever the more we grow. Be thankful for the challenges for we know something greater is coming. Love you always - Nathalie ✨❤️

We can take this idea to all aspects of our lives

Welp, this just explained my attraction to girls who like to cosplay while I had a lot of issues with low arousal when I was in a couple XD totally fit with my constant craving for narratives and stories.

[somenathmondal]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience ☺️

[kijekuyo]

This was good to hear. I have been writing a spiritual/sensual/erotic adventure/journey of discovery for the past four years or so. It's hard to finish because I keep getting new elements to add. This talk sparked a couple of ideas that I would like to include. I already have a lot about the roles of environment and senses (colors, textures, sounds, smells, temperature, tastes) and, indeed, some about fantasy. I think this has inspired me to add a little more about the importance of fantasy.

[KasheYan]

Oh dang dipsea stories belongs to her?!

[anisursumon]

That's awesome motivation speaking 💕💕💕

[DmitryKravchyna]

Rumor has it they're still imagining

[CaroleMcDonnell]

Seriously? Is she kidding? How is this new? Sexual fantasies have been around and used by many women for ages.

[StigHelmer]

So many AI generated comments on this channel it's getting silly.

[VinegarPotato]

As an asexual dude, I feel like there is a 99% chance this lady is insane.

[sinafenty]

She lied for 9 minutes and all these fools listened and agreed
