I was almost 24 when my husband and I married. By that time, I think, I was so used to denying myself, that it's hard to relax and be sexual. I never really felt like a woman either. I felt rather asexual, like I couldn't grow up.
Some things that have helped me, and continue to help me:
1. Looking in the mirror and telling myself I am a woman, that I am sexy, that I'm beautiful, that my husband likes the way I look.
2. Wearing makeup and jewelry and clothing that enhance my sexuality.
3. Kegel excercises (using a Kegel ball helps me remember). Makes me remember I have lady parts.
4. Take several minutes to touch myself intimately daily. Yep, feels really weird at first. It actually took several weeks before it started feeling good.
5. A vibrator. And actually if I can get myself to orgasm, I want it more- and soon.
7. Along that vein, porn can help. It doesn't have to be really kinky stuff, but just pics of naked men. This can get you beyond thinking that male parts are dirty or disgusting, and eventually increase your desire.
8. Taking pics of myself in my underwear - sending daily pics to my husband and him commenting on how sexy I am. Even better if you have a tripod and camera with a timer that takes several pics in a row. Making a series of pics for my husband was really good for me.
9. While having sex, think about sex. Don't allow your mind to wander. If you feel like doing something, don't discard those feelings/thoughts, act on them!
10. Dirty talk/text. There are lots of examples on the internet (some of them sound really stupid), but just do what feels best to you. Tell your husband you desire him, how your body feels when you think of him, what you want to do to him, what you want him to do to you. Build his desire for you and yours for him.
11. Talk during sex. "This feels good" "could you do this?" "More of that" "touch me here"
It may take a while to get the results you want, but rejoice in each accomplishment, each time you feel even a little sexy. Make note of what got you there as well, so you can repeat the occurance. Of course, you don't have to do exactly what I do, but I encourage you to choose something from my list and work on it. A little at a time is better than not trying at all. :-) Good luck!
