Male vs. Female Orgasm: a steel cage match!

[Oliver Clozoff]

I've always been curious about how the female orgasm feels; is it the same as mine? or qualitatively different?

Of course, women have the enviable advantage of quanity, as you ladies have a much simpler apparatus that doesn't depend on our highly tempermental system of hydraulics (don't you love it when I talk dirty?)

But quantity aside, who has the better deal? On the guys' side, ours is obviously good enough to routinely induce a coma-like state within seconds (I know... much to you ladies chagrin sometimes). And from what I've heard we make some pretty ridiculous faces.

So step right up and plead your case. Don't forget to cite all relevant physiology research to support your position. Warm up your plethesmographs and let the best gender win!

Zeus and Hera pondered this question to, as did many of the great Greek Philosophers. The two placed bets on who had the better orgasm and desided to find Hermes and change him into a woman for a couple years. (And you thought your parents messed you up) As the story goes Hermes was eventually turned back to his natural state and decided that the female orgasm was nine times better.
Hera won the bet.
Zeus promptly got drunk and found a farm girl to spend the night with. That's how Ru Paul was born.

On the SLY

Hera and Hermes bargained behind Zeus's back.
It as a deal they struck to humble Zeus and
Hera would revert the spell only after Hermes
agreed to her terms. When Zeus found out,
to say the least, he found the treachary amusing

since it was a silly bet to begin with.

I always wondered where Ru Paul came from...

 

[Svedish_Chef]

Can I just have one of each please?

 

[Whispersecret]

Hmmm. I can't really say if I think my orgasms are better than a male's, because I've never been a guy! But curiously, men's orgasms are much easier to describe in writing, at least for me. Strange, huh?

If we're talking quality only, I sometimes have orgasms so intense that I continue to get little intermittent aftershocks, even as long as five or six minutes after the initial orgasm. Usually it's because I'm thinking about the just-finished passionate act, but sometimes I'm not thinking about anything and it just happens. I'm not sure if guys have that. I'm also not sure if that technically counts as part of the orgasm or not. If you hooked up all the electrodes and junk to my pussy you might even find that they're actually little orgasms...I don't know.

Maybe we should set up another scientific experiment. Of course, we'd only be doing this for the sake of science. You can lick me to an Olympian orgasm and monitor the intensity of the aftermath. Now, a single test won't be sufficient, so I imagine we'll be at it for a while. Think you can make time in your busy school schedule? <winks>

lucky you

Whispersecret....so intense that I continue to get little intermittent aftershocks, even as long as five or six
minutes after the initial orgasm

5 or 6 minutes later, I just have jism running down my leg.

 

[Whispersecret]

<glances at gatherer, giggling> Well, silly, get a towel!

 

[gatherer]

A warm wet washcloth if you please.

afterwards everything is soooo much more sensitive,
the wash cloth soaked in the warm water, brought back by the lover suggests that there is yet more to be enjoyed.
I like a little hike to the frig for oranges, and to cool off in front of it. Something really sexy about a naked person being exposed in the nighttime by an open refrigerator door.

technicality?

Oliver, do men experience different types of orgasms? i.e. the woman can experience the clitoral orgasm -vs- the vaginal orgasm. Those are not technical terms, just the ones my friends and I came up with to describe two totally different experiences.

 

[CreamyLady]

Oh, good grief. I feel fantastic and energized and good all over; I hope my lover feels happy and relaxed and good all over. He isn't as young as he used to be, and a good night's sleep is a boon to him.

We cuddle, he sleeps, and then we do it all over again.

I can't go into the subtle analyses of this.

 

[Oliver Clozoff]

Never~ NINE times better!?! I think nine times better than what I have now would cause severe permanent brain damage. <making note to self to swipe some premarin samples and phone Stockholm for the next possible "sex reassignment" surgery anyway>

WS~ Your research idea is intriguing. I think we should skip grant-submission stage and proceed straight to "hooking up all the electrodes and junk" to your pussy and see if we can get to the bottom of these mysterious aftershocks. And yes, we'll need multiple trials. Repeatability is the essence of good science.

Earthmuffin~ Physiologically, no differences have been found between so-called "clitoral" and "vaginal" orgasms first postulated (I think) by Freud. Both result in similar increases in heart-rate, skin-flushing, increased pelvic blood flow and lubrication, and the tell-tale contraction of the uterus and vaginal barrel (creepy term, huh?) at a rate of approx. .8/second. And it's thought that both are the result of clitoral stimulation anyway, although this is debated.

But who am I to argue the subjective feelings of an orgasm? If they feel different to you then they are.

Thanks for the great responses. Keep 'em cummin! (forgive me father, for I have punned...)

 

[Whispersecret]

Well, I definitely feel a physical difference between my orgasms. Direct clitoral stimulation results in a MUCH more intense orgasm than one achieved by only vaginal penetration. I understood that to be standard for all women...maybe I'm wrong. We all tend to assume other people are like us. There are no measurable differences between the two types of orgasm? Maybe that means it's all in our minds. But I'm NOT imagining it! The clit ones are stronger! <flails her arms>

<jots down some notes and then tucks her pencil behind her ear> Alas, more questions that need answering. More research needed. Such is the life of a selfless sexual guinea pig. <sighs melodramatically>

 

[Merelan]

"Strictly for the sake of science"? Sign me up.... any other volunteers?

 

[teresafannin]

orgasm

I also feel a distinct difference. Direct clitoral stimulation gives me much more intense orgasms, although I have amazing orgasms either way. Lucky me to have finally found my knight in shining armor,it only took 20 years.

What was that scene in "Manhattan"?

WOMAN: I finally had an orgasm, but my doctor told me it was the wrong kind.

WOODY ALLEN: Wrong kind? I've never had the wrong kind. Even my worst one was was pretty much right on.

dixon .. you finally made me laugh at something on the bb today .. i was feeling so shitty with all the angry stuff ... i am a HUGE woody allen fan ..

 

[Jade]

HEY,

I don't think my "apparatus" is THAT simple Olliebaby!

 

[SimplySouthern]

OK....one thing to say about this...

You ear itches and you scratch it. Which feels better after..your finger or your ear?

(OK..I cheated..Olly and I talked about this yesterday and Ihad all day to come up with a cool answer)

 

[Lovely Latina]

Thought this interesting...

i am a HUGE woody allen fan

Well...who ISN'T a fan of the woody?

*cough*

*ahem*

On the guys' side, ours is obviously good enough to routinely induce a coma-like state within seconds (I know... much to you ladies chagrin sometimes).

Well I don't wanna burst any cum bubbles (as someone so eloquently put it), but a man's tendency to roll over and play dead after the big O really has nothing to do with how hard or how goodly he cums.

There has been a fairly recent study showing that oxytocin, a hormone responsible for the release of breast milk and supposedly for women's orgasmic contractions, also stimulates erection and ejaculation in men. Oxytocin is also thought to cause drowsiness. But because women's bodies normally contain more of it, they may be less sensitive to its surges. So...though both partners may feel the need to nod off after orgasmic release, the rush of that oxytocin cocktail is likely to make a man fall asleep first.

(Holy crap...did I just play defendant for the other team!?)

So ya can't really use the "comatose argument" as a point in case for male orgasms being "better".

Another interesting little tidbit I found was that it has been shown that our threshold for pain rises 100% during climax. Makes ya wonder what they did to those poor test subjects to prove THAT theory. LOL

I may cum back later and describe an actual female orgasm in EXCRUTIATING detail AS it's happening. But for right now...I'm just gonna use a Q-tip.

Jade this is totaly off topic but I just came across your picture and discovered that you are not only intelligent and intrigueing but stunning as well.

Just a thought.

Oh yeah, I concur SS does indeed rule.
