This is what we’re taught:
Penis. Vagina.
Babies.
We’re not taught -
How to get pregnant.
How to get off. How to CUM.
We live in a society where parents are like - Don’t touch my daughter. Have you met my son?
Sex is stigmatized.
If you’re a woman.
Which brings us to Lora DiCarlo (LD). And a really great orgasm!!!
We’re talking. Full body, blended orgasm.
Whatever that means.
It means - There’s no real path to pleasure.
Women experience different types of orgasms. Who knew?
Lora DiCarlo!!!
After reading about it in Cosmo (of all places).
So, yeah.
Sex ed sucks!!!*
That blended orgasm? It’s one of many female orgasms.* And it’s what happens when you stimulate both the g spot and the glans clitoris.
LD is on a mission.
To build better sex tech.
By asking things like:
Hey - how big is your clitoris? Where’s your urethral sponge?
To a treatment group. That has no freaking idea!!!! (AKA. LD’s friends).
She’ll do what we won’t ;)
Build a sex toy backed by data. Not men.
After all. How many men? Do you know? Who have never came?
Literally zero.
The year is 2019.
And LD builds a pitch deck with 52 functional requirements. (She’s a scientist by trade).
For a bio-memetic device (sex toy).
That feels human. Is hands free. And hits the whole clitoris.
Hell yeah, sister!
She takes that data to Oregon State University. (Top four robotics program in the country).
And she applies for an Honorary Innovation Award from the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).*
In the robotics category.
And yeah.
She WINS.
Until it’s revoked. For being “indecent.”
Crazy. Considering -
Sex tech ISN’T foreign to CES. It’s featured.
VR porn. For men. Oral sex device. For men. Booth Babes. For men.
But hey.
Lora DiCarlo doesn’t back down.
She writes an open letter. And she becomes a martyr. That’s the beauty of 2019. Society is at least trying to progress.
CES says sorry.
And they open a whole new category around health & wellness. (After giving back her award).
(BTW. Lora didn’t just wake up one day and decide to start a biz. It actually took being an executive assistant to realize. “Hey! I can do this”).
Okay.
Let’s address the Insta pic. Of Cara Delevingne. (Super famous model).
She’s part owner of Lora DiCarlo (the brand).* And she’s pretty great at marketing.
BTW. Their products work!
That’s the beauty of data.
It tells a story around what consumers want.
Get this.
Their engineering team can CAD something up. Print it out. And iterate. In a couple days. And it’s how they go from one product to 11 in two years.
So take one from Lora DiCarlo. Know your body. Know your worth.🤝🤝🤝
And that’s the skinny.
* Let’s play a game. Pick up a human physiology book. And try to learn about the female erogenous zones. Venmo request isabella-busacca $5 if you can find anything unrelated to STDs or pregnancies.
* Dr. John Parmigiani at Oregon State became the Chief Investigator for Lora’s project. They used her seed to money to kick off an industry funded research program. Within 8 months, they had a prototype, five patents, and proof of concept. (It’s what scored them the Honorary Innovation Award from CES).
* The entire body of the clitoris is about 4 inches in length. The most common type of orgasm is “clitoral,” aka surface level. That’s because - the g spot is underneath the external physiology and super hard to reach. A blended (magic) orgasm happens when you hit both the glans clitoris and the g spot. This is the orgasm that changed Lora DiCarlo’s life and inspired Lora DiCarlo (the brand).
* Cara Delevingne reached out to Lora DiCarlo. Not the other way around!!!! She tried the Ose product and came 3 times in 6 minutes. So, yeah. No duh she joined the team.
