A New Swedish Word

Now the Swedish language has its own word for female masturbation. The Swedish Association for Sexuality Education (RFSU) at its congress has decided on the new word "klittra".

"Putting words on women's masturbation gives us the opportunity to talk about sexuality in a simple and less clinical manner" writes Frida Zellinger on the organization's blog.

In November 2014 RFSU announced a competition to find the best word for female masturbation. After first choosing the 40 top favorite words or expressions, the Swedish people voted for their favorites and klittra got 30 percent of the votes.
