Betsy Blankenbaker (Author of Autobiography of an Orgasm)
Biographer of orgasms to speak at Indy Reads
Growing up in a conservative family in Indiana, Betsy Blankenbaker learned never to talk about sex. If her mother ever had to have a conversation about “IT,” she would whisper “down there” and point to the relevant body part. But when Blankenbaker, 53, hit her mid-40s, she decided to start researching sex and the body in the hope of reclaiming her own sensuality.
Sexual abuse at age 6 followed by a rape at the age of 40, combined with the loss of a child in childbirth, had left her feeling numb. “My entire genital area represented death to me,” said Blankenbaker. “I was disconnected from my body. I was not going to write about it.”
As she delved into her own sexuality and sensuality, Blankenbaker realized she had a book in her. That project grew into “O: The Autobiography of an Orgasm,” which in turn has led her to put together two anthologies of stories that people shared with her.
Blankenbaker will appear at Indy Reads Books at 6:
