Secrets of the Female Orgasm on Channel 4 review: a powerful look at a taboo topic

It’s the middle of the day, and Yewande Biala is sitting on the floor, watching the woman in front of her masturbate. “I’ve got my hands down, and right away my pussy is coming online,” the woman (who is a sex therapist) tells Biala, who’s sitting at her side. And then she proceeds to do much what you’d expect.

If you’re wondering whether you’ve stumbled into some sort of soft-porn parallel universe, rest easy: Channel 4’s latest documentary is an educational look at something society still doesn’t talk too much about. That is, the female orgasm, and those who struggle to achieve one.
