“Everyone deserves an orgasm” is a fair way of expressing Diana de Begu’s attitude towards life. Diana is a firm believer in pursuing pleasure of all kinds for the benefit of all people.
As the new season of Modern Love kicks off, host Anna Martin got some advice from Diana on how to infuse sensuality into everyday life. (Hint: cold drinks, hot baths, juicy mangoes)
We also hear Diana’s story of seeking help at a sophisticated brothel in downtown Manhattan. Why should a legally blind 83-year-old woman have to go through so much trouble just to get a sex toy?
