[3] Dodson criticized Eve Ensler's The Vagina Monologues, which she believed has a negative and restrictive view of sexuality with an anti-male bias.
Bodysex is a practice developed by Betty Dodson to help women connect with their bodies and erogenous zones, heal shames, improve pleasure perception, and promote self-love.
In the workshops, women were guided to explore their bodies and masturbate together to learn, with guidance, how to have an orgasm as a woman alone and with a sexual partner.
[11] She recommended women put a small towel over their vulva in order to dull the sensation of the vibrator and prolong the pleasurable experience.
[14] A study conducted in 2007 tested the "Betty Dodson Method" in group therapy with 500 previously anorgasmic women.
[15] In a 2021 study, the female techniques for pleasurable vaginal intercourse taught by Dodson ("Angling, Rocking, Shallowing, Pairing") are again described by women.
