In an episode of her new Facebook show Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett Smith opened up with her 17-year-old daughter Willow about sex and orgasms. Here are highlights (via The Huffington Post):

On enjoying sex as a woman: “We as women have been trained that women aren’t supposed to enjoy sex, sex is not for women, sex is for men, pleasure is for men — and honestly I think that’s why so many women that I know have never had orgasms.”

On pleasuring herself: “I think by your age I gave myself multiples first. Multiple orgasms. Yep, I did. I was really into it at one point just because I was in an exploration state and I was abstaining from men. I actually think I went through kind of an addiction too with it. Then one day I was like, ‘Enough, you’re having five orgasms a day.’”

On when she learned about and from who: “My grandmother taught me about self-pleasuring because she wanted me to know that that pleasure was from me. She didn’t want me to fall into the hands of a man and if he gave me pleasure, to think that that was him. She taught me at 9! At 9!”
