Pencils were handed out so we could practice on an eraser tip the feather light touch recommended for clitoral stroking. Though I was attending the class with the intention of being the “strokee,” after seeing Nicole play Rachel like a Stradivarius, I became curious what it must be like to be an expert “stroker.” So I pencil tipped for a while.

Next came a nuts and bolts non-nude demonstration of an OM session with detailed instructions. Among many other specifics, we learned where to sit (the stroker sits on the right of the strokee snuggled close to her body) and what to say (the stroker always tells the strokee what he’s about to do before he does it).

There was an interminable stream of questions from our group. I say interminable because the class was scheduled to end with a practicum. I was anticipating the moment when we would stop talking about OMing and finally experience it. Come on people!
But the OM facilitators – who bring this class from city to city – remarked that they were surprised and impressed with the depth of questions coming from this L.A. crowd. I don’t know what they were expecting, but it was nice to have my (talkative) people represent.
The practicum was not required as part of the class. In fact, the facilitators explained that the day was officially over – those who wanted to experience a first OM could stay and those who didn’t were free to head out. I attended the class with a partner so I didn’t have to deal – as many folks did – with the wild experience of walking up to a stranger and asking, “would you like to OM?” which essentially is like saying, “Greetings, may I stroke your pussy?” or “Hello, would you please stroke my clit for a while?” Hats off to the brave ones who shyly asked each other and paired up.
There were about twenty couples ready to go. We cleared all the chairs in the room to make space for what was about to happen.
Thanks so much for sharing. Everything about OM seems so sexy and fun!
So glad you are reading my scratchings!
