Women around the world are being told they can now have an orgasm at the touch
of a button.
The makers of "Slightest Touch" say their device can give women longer, better
and more intense orgasms.
They claim their device can trigger an orgasm without touching a woman's
genital area.
According to the manufacturers, Slightest Touch works by stimulating the body's
sexual nerve pathway.
'Turned on'
Women start by drinking an electrolyte sports drink 20 minutes before using the
device.
They then apply two white electrode pads inside their ankles.
These pads are connected to the Slightest Touch device, which is about the size
of a personal stereo.
If women feel they have problems with either sex or relationships, it's better
to go and get professional advice about the possible causes, before spending a
lot of money on a particular product

With the flick of a switch, women can literally get turned on.
The device stimulates the nerves sending gentle pulses up the woman's leg for
between 10 and 30 minutes leaving women on the verge of climax.
"The Slightest Touch does not provide an orgasm," said Cherisse Davidson, the
company's director of customer support.
"It gently stimulates the sexual nerve pathways taking the woman to a
pre-orgasmic plateau where she dangles on the edge of orgasm for as long as she
wants.
"From there, gentle stimulation can then effect the orgasm."
BBC News Online has been unable to get independent scientific verification that
the product works.
But Ms Davidson, who first tested the device three years ago, insists it is
effective.
"It can be of great benefit to many women," she told BBC News Online.
"I've been using mine for three years and I just love it."
She said the product can help women who simply want to improve their sex lives
and those who have problems achieving orgasm.
However, the Slightest Touch, which sells for $139.95, is not suitable for
everyone.
It is not recommended for women taking anti-depressants, those who are pregnant
or those with some underlying medical conditions such as heart problems.
The product which was launched in the United States six months ago is now
starting to getting attention in Europe.
Ms Davidson said the company had now sold almost 4,000 devices - some to
customers in Britain.
However, the UK's FPA, formerly the Family Planning Association, urged women to
get professional advice before spending their hard earned cash.
"If women feel they have problems with either sex or relationships, it's better
to go and get professional advice about the possible causes, before spending a
lot of money on a particular product," said a spokeswoman.
