Wow, this interview was so, so amazing. Regena Thomashauser, aka Mama Gena, is truly a renegade pioneer of feminism and female sexuality (is that redundant?). Through her in-person workshops called Mama Gena's School of Womanly Arts, and books by the same name, including (to-be-released in September) Pussy: A Reclamation, Thomashauser offers a fascinating history on the power of female sensuality and sexuality, biology lessons on female anatomy and the possibilities (and fruits of) hours-long orgasms, and advice on how women today can reclaim and master the power of their own sensualities.
In this awesome interview, Mama Gena shares with me:
- Why pussy and what that word really, truly means.
- Why it is so critical for women to learn what pleases their every senses — a practice that guarantees attracting the biggest genuine fulfillment and success in career, parenting and romance.
- Her own journey as a divorced mother to a young daughter, while dating and building a business.
- Why a part of her appreciates that her first post-divorce love affair — with a remarkable, wealthy, glamorous man who adored her — ended, freeing her to manifest her life's work.
- How to nurture your daughters' sensuality even if you are struggling to nurture your own.
- Her reaction when I told her I tried to do a word count on "pussy" in the PDF of her new book, but there were too many to tally.
- The power of PJ (don't know what PJ is? Hint: pussy juice) and right there in my Times Square studio, two grown women harvested applied a dab of her own behind the ear.
Thomashauser is author of Mama Gena’s School of Womanly Arts: Using the Power of Pleasure to Have Your Way with the World (2002), Mama Gena’s Owner’s & Operator’s Guide To Men (2003) and Mama Gena’s Marriage Manual (2004).
