Vaginal Orgasms

[Spenser41]

A lady friend of mine said to me, I get nothing from intercourse. I don't even enjoy it. It is ok. You want to send me off? Eat me!

She said MOST women never climax from intercourse. She sent me this to prove her point.

New Study: Glamour Magazine, October 2000

Based on 1,500 women's responses to an online poll at Glamour.com

In response to the question, "Do you need extra stimulation to orgasm?" the women responded:

I need "a hand" 38%
I can do it just from intercourse 28%
I need oral sex 21%
Other 10%
I need a vibrator 3%

This reveals that over the past nineteen years the number of women who regularly experience orgasm as the result of vaginal/penile stimulation alone has not changed, 26% versus 28%. Most if not the majority of women, 62%, need direct stimulation of their clitoris if they are to experience orgasm. It is not known whether "other" included other forms of clitoral stimulation so the percentage may be higher

So ladies of Lit.... how do you rank in this poll?

Well, first of all, i would not trust the results of this poll. It's an online poll of Glamour Magazine readers (actually, I am one) who bothered to go online and take the poll...which means that the results only apply to these women (probably a very specific demographic group) and, statistically, the results cannot be generalized to a greater population (e.g., women in the U.S.). Not to mention, the question is extremely vague...i'm not even sure exactly how to answer. Do i need extra stimulation when? Where? If it's talking about during intercourse, it helps to have a hand, but you can't also get oral sex during vaginal sex....i'm confused. I guess that's just my way of saying, take the numbers and time trends with a grain of salt.

I guess my answer to the general question is that i have orgasmed just from vaginal sex, in certain positions, after heavy-duty forplay. Even in those certain positions where strictly penis-in-vagina sex isn't orgasm-inducing, i still find it enjoyable...but if the guy's just pounding away with no variation in what he's doing then, yes, it gets to be unenjoyable.

mmmm

This is not the only poll I have read. Matter of fact if you do a search on line most women in these polls say they do not have an orgasm from intercourse unless the clit is played with in some way.
Now I have been with a few women in my life (not alot but a few) and unless they were faking it... they seem to have climaxed through intercourse. My friends answer to that is that that is very rare. It is mainly through clit play or oral.
So I am just trying to find out of the Lit women here, can you climax just from intercourse.
Heck I told her I knew women that could come from nipple stim and she said no way. Never... She does not get off on her breasts being sucked on much. Again for her.. the only way is oral on the clit or vibrator.

THat's got to suck and not in a good way.

I can get off with just PIV. Course, we use lots of foreplay, perhaps that has something to do with it. And rarely the same possition twice in a row.
Variety is the spice of life, ya know.

I'm not disputing that very few women can come from vaginal sex without other stimulation. In fact, i think it's sort of tragic that women think, "I'm supposed to be enjoying this. What's wrong with me?" instead of asking their lovers for the additional stimulation that they need. I'm just saying that you shouldn't trust those number as being concrete...in fact, i think it's probably less than 28%.

personally i find it hard to tell....because a lot of time during sex my clit is stimulated at the same time as penetration- either delibratly or more often just cos of the position we're in and general friction. My clit is important- but whether i could cum without it....which is essentially what you're asking....i just don't know. Probably not, to be honest. Maybe I need to find this G spot that everyone on here seems so into....

I remember reading a book on eroticism, published circa 1990, that claimed that the vaginal orgasm is a myth.

Well, it's not. I'm one of the few who can and regularly do have vaginal orgasms. To that I must add, however, that my vaginal orgasms aren't nearly as intense as clitoral orgasms. So, in my experience, if you can't have purely vaginal orgasms, don't worry about it - it's nice, but you're not missing a whole lot.

Guess my SO is fortunate - she can orgasm from all the above; including with penetration and not "extra" stimulation. But I make sure the penetration has plenty of stimulation ... verbally as well as physically. She says that the orgasms are different according to her mood and how she's being stimulated (i.e. orally, fingered, fucked, vibrator, or combo of above).

Not all women do have O's from pentration.


I am lucky enough to be multi O talented and able to O just from someone talking(or typing) what they are going to do to me.


G-spot O's are very different from pentration and clit O's.

I have to respond here, I am 26, and in the past 6 mos, I JUST learned to have a vaginal O, I have to say....It is MUCH better and more intense then clitoral O. They seem to start at my toes....Prefer over Clitoral O anyday.
