Orgasms from Reading

[LargoKitt]

Has a story ever brought you to orgasm? Not quite the same question as, "Have you ever brought yourself to orgasm while reading a story?" Listening to a story may be a whole nother thread. But...just reading...and you came?

 

[xannatharr]

Not as yet

 

[dirk2024]

No, but I am avidly reading stories here in the hopes that one day, that experience will cum.

 

[nice90sguy]

I've never cum without physical stimulation - and rarely cum without mental stimulation. Lit is for the latter

 

[SavannaT]

Was very young at the time but yes.. “To Save the Ship” it was called

 

[SimonDoom]

No, never just from reading.

 

[stickygirl]

I used to get off on the Thesaurus
orgasm, elicit sexual gratification, relish, savour, amuse oneself, love, adore, spasm, peak

 

[ChuckWolf]

Very close, but no.

 

[InvisibleHarvey]

orgasm, elicit sexual gratification, relish, savour, amuse oneself, love, adore, spasm, peak

I tried that once, but my thesaurus was bad. Not only that, but it was also bad.

 

[Rob_Royale]

Not yet but looking forward to it. As long as I'm not on my lunch break at work.

 

[paulman999]

Usually reading warms me up for a big finish later,mutually with visual stimulaii

 

[big_cane_sugar]

I'm sure I'm not the only one here who's read the Iliad, Johnny Got His Gun, Blood Meridian...

 

[graysilver]

No, never just from reading.

Me either. Does get me in the mood, though.

 

[Whanmore]

Imagine getting a comment from a reader ... "I came in my pants just from reading your scene." lol

I can think of no higher compliment.

"And for their great accomplishment in writing anthro erotica, this year's Pulitizer goes to-"
"Pfft, screw your Pulitizer, dude. Some guy just commented 'Bro I creamed myself from reading words wtf ' on my polar bear Mama story. Peace out "

BTW Anyone from the UK is quite likely to misread the thread title.

 

[lovecraft68]

That's never happened. Not that there hasn't been stories here that I found arousing but in those cases the wife benefits from the effect, I've never gotten off myself to anything here.

Has a story ever brought you to orgasm?

I’m desperately trying to think of what the possible physical basis for this might be. I’m aware of the wet dreams thing (in young men, right, or is it more prevalent than that?). I get aroused reading, sometimes very aroused, but that’s rather different.

It's not impossible for some people to be able to orgasm without direct genital stimulation (and in some cases no stimulation at all). These are called spontaneous orgasms. They aren't common, but they do occur. After all, our entire perceived existence is a series of neurochemical and electrical signals.

Examples:

• Some medications have been linked to spontaneous orgasms in some individuals, such as rasagiline (I am not a shill for the company that makes rasagiline... but I'm trying, damn it!), which is used to treat Parkinson's.
• Persistent genital arousal disorder (or PGAD), which used to be called Restless Genital Syndrome (RGS).
• Nocturnal orgasms, which are considered "wet dreams/nightmares" (yes, wet nightmares are a thing) only when there are genital secretions during said orgasm. Non-wet dream nocturnal orgasms

There have been studies on the phenomena of touch-free, hands-free, and spontaneous orgasms, and all find pretty much the same thing: The brain's a wacky chunk of meat.

That’s kinda interesting. Do you have any links to journal articles? I often find that sex-related research is kinda sketchy.

@EmilyMiller, agreed, a lot of sexual research tends to be male-centric (gee, wonder why?), so finding reliable female sexual studies is a lot harder than finding a million research articles on Erectile Dysfunction. Imagine if we put the same amount of research time, effort, and money that went into ED as literally anything women's health related...

This is just a case study, but it is NIH: A Case of Female Orgasm Without Genital Stimulation

Speaks for itself, really: International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health (ISSWSH) Review of Epidemiology and Pathophysiology, and a Consensus Nomenclature and Process of Care for the Management of Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder/Genito-Pelvic Dysesthesia (PGAD/GPD)

From Nature: Clinical characterisation of women with persistent genital arousal disorder: the iPGAD-study

And one on medication causing spontaneous orgasms: Ziprasidone-induced spontaneous orgasm

Thank you - will try to make time to scan in the next few days

 

[Treeview]

Gotten verrrrry aroused from reading occasionally.

Reading will get me tothe edge but I need abit more to cross over the edge

 

[nice90sguy]

I was going to mention wet dreams, which caused me a lot of teen embarrassment , but I decided that being asleep , I couldn’t be sure what exactly was going on at the time.

I think it helps if you position your book in just the right place. Maybe turn the pages a lot. You might have to go back and forth, back and forth, back and forth...
