Is my clitoris normal?!
Question: My clitoris is not like other women's. It is not hooded but is completely hidden under my skin and does not pop out. I have very little feeling when I touch it and have never had an orgasm in my life. Can anything be done to help me?

I can see you're worried that you're not built the same as other women but I don't think you've got anything to worry about. What I'm wondering is how many other clitorises you've actually seen. Images in pornographic magazines are likely to be airbrushed, coloured or distorted in some other way, so there's no real comparison with what normal women are like.
When people talk about the clitoris being hooded, it's not like a man's foreskin that retracts. It just means that the clitoris sits between your labia so when your legs are closed it's not visible. Nobody's clitoris pops out. All there is is a slight swelling, a little bit of a bump around the same diameter as a pea but not as hard or pronounced as that, which is somewhat more sensitive than the surrounding area. Mostly it doesn't do anything. After all, wouldn't it be inconvenient if you got turned on by just walking around or waiting for a bus? When some women feel sexy, though, the clitoris can feel a little warmer, be a little darker in colour and perhaps a tiny fraction bigger as blood flows into the genital area.
You say you haven't had an orgasm yet. However, you don't say how old you are, whether you've known any good lovers or whether you've experimented much to find something which turns you on. I don't know many women who'd have an orgasm just by touching their clitoris. Far more women need to be relaxed, in the mood, and to be with (or imagine they're with) someone they fancy and with whom they feel safe and valued. Even then just touching the clitoris is unlikely to bring on an orgasm. Most women also need plenty of loving foreplay, and then penetration which stimulates the G-spot (conveniently located a finger's length inside the vagina, on the front wall. This doesn't stick out either.)
It's a good idea, though, to explore what turns you on, and to read up about good lovemaking. One of the standard manuals is the Joy of Sex by Alex Comfort.
Good luck and have fun finding out what does the trick for you!
sorry but sicko ^^^^ (the dragon)
If it concerns you then you should really talk to a doctor. Some people will say it's not a problem but then it's not their clitoris so how do they really know? There is a condition that some men get where the opening in their foreskin is too small to fit over there glans, I have heard (but can't verify) that women can have the same problem with their clitoris. See a doctor and let her give you a professional opinion.
it should come out when you get turned on
Normal. There are pictures you can get that illustrate the many different ways that a clitoris can look. Being totally hooded is not abnormal at all.
The lack of sensation may be hormonal. It could be psychological - as in that you have a mental block about it.
The largest sex organ is inside your skull.
Also, not all orgasms are due to the clitoris either.
Do you have a picture?
