Making love with a person is the closest form of physical intimacy that you can ever experience with someone. You’re naked and you’re vulnerable. Your bodies are entwined and the heat emanating from them stokes the fire that is already within you. The session continues and you both are almost on the edge, ready to experience a feeling that takes you to another world – a mind-blowing orgasm. 

But unfortunately, orgasms, much like sex, are not talked about enough. It is so much of a taboo that most, if not all, women still don’t know what an orgasm feels like. Because no one has given them one and masturbation, well, is apparently something only ‘bad girls’ do.

We cannot stress enough on how important it is to know your body and learn to love it. And masturbating and having an orgasm is one of the finest ways to do so. You start loving your body like never before and are more confident about what you want sexually. What’s more, it also boosts your health.

Albert Pocej, a photographer from Lithuania, is breaking the many diktats associated with orgasms and masturbation. In his photo series, he has captured women experiencing orgasms through masturbation. But more than the physical or sexual aspect of it, he’s showing that even women orgasm. That it’s nothing more than a physical response to the heightened stimulation or pleasure. 

Here are the beautiful photos:

Orgasms are quite a splendid experience so instead of shying away and making yourself devoid of the pleasure, embrace it. It’s worth it!
