The Orgasm

[Esperanza_Hidalgo]

*sigh* ......def g-spot!
I was starting to love the converse.....

G-Spot orgasms feel cool, but I still think the clit is the brain of it all. From what I've studies, the clit is like a mini brain, and all of the pleasure from the various erogenous zones passes through it. Then that lovely little organ has an ability to bypass the parts of the brain that cause resistance, drumming directly to the pleasure centers. I am by no means a doctor, and gathered most of this info just trying to figure out why I orgasm.

I posted on this in some detail way back when. Lemme try and find it --lol I'll s/p it this time so you don't havta link back.

Thank you for the heady response, and I'd like to make a few points. First off, I have no time to an exhaustive literature review because of my schedule at school, and second, I have no credentials because I am simply a humble undergraduate. I do ask that any who are knowledgeable on this topic to please comment, and I will stand corrected if proven wrong by hard data.

In my humble opinion, orgasms can be generated by more than just clitoral stimulation (not that it was suggested that they couldn't). Take for example a wet dream, or premature ejaculation before intercourse, when no outward stimulation occurs. Both may occur without any direct vaginal or penile contact. To assume that an orgasm only occurs due to clitoral stimulation should be examined (again, not that it was stated).

The clitoris is certainly the center of it all, or the "big brain" of the orgasm. A brain that loves power, able to circumvent the neocortex to stimulate the pleasure centers of the brain. "The clitoris integrates information from diverse sources, conscious and unconscious, from the cerebral cortex, the hypothalamus, the peripheral nervous system, and it responds accordingly" (pg. 79, Natalie Angier in Woman: An Intimate Geography). If you take it a step further, external stimuli (anal penetration) other than direct contact to the clitoris still stimulates the clitoris, then can be transferred to the brain for orgasm. The potential stimuli include sight, sound, smell, taste (vaginal secretions during cunnilingus).


Angier spends extensive time discussing the clitoris. She writes "...The clitoris is the site where the 8,000 nerve fibers are threshed together into a proper little brain" (bold mine, pg 65). On the multiple orgasm she posits, " . . . a man feels preposterously peakcockish if he climaxes three or four times in a night, compared to the fifty or hundred orgasms that a sexually athletic woman can have in an hour or two" (sorry guys, pg 70). I do agree that the most satisfying orgasms occur through multiple arenas, but to assume that the direct clitoral stimulation is the only source of the orgasm is false. The clitoris is the brain of the orgasm.

One of the main differences in the penis and the clitoris is in function. The clitoris only serves women for pleasure, and is so sensitive that it must hide in its little cloistered home for most of us. While the male penis must also serve to provide semen during ejaculation, and to void during urination. Indeed, as Angier describes the differences in anatomy are vast and the female vagina is much more that a turned in penis.

Again --- thank you for the response, I feel many women know so little about our bodies and why we reach orgasm.

Now, how about someone talking dirty to me?????

The clit is by far the best. Don't know what life would be like without that little thing.

This makes me long to experience sex as a female- when we men climax, we're all but done for ( sorry to ruin anyone's bs perception of himself) at least for a while. Women on the other hand, are just getting warmed up at 4 or 5 orgasms! And you girls have an easy button! How lewd

Why you orgasm? It's because you've got your fucking clit over my mouth and I'm tickling it while playing with your ass, you little cunt. Let's see why you cum,and we'll go back to talking nice after you're covered with a sheen of sweat and have a dreamy, far away look in those eyes.

This has probably been done before, but I'm curious anyway. We women have the most incredible orgasms brough about by a variety of methods. O, those lovely nerves, from the clitorus, g-spot, anus to the vaginal canal. So here it is and please add any anectodal experiences if you wish. How do you achieve those wonderful multiple O's with the greatest pleasure?

A Vaginal penetration
B The clitorus
C Anal penetration (yes, possible)
D G-spot stimulation

Now, I left some out. It is possible to O from, let's say a nice wet foot licking, even a nice little spanky. But tell me about yours and vote.

Those wonderful multiple O's are from vaginal penetration, which to me, is where my G spot resides. So A and D are kinda the same. The quick and easy O is from my clit.

Totally agree, but I think the asshole too is like the little thing

This is what a clit looks like under all the muscle, skin, and everything. It's that whole huge, pink thing and has nerves going all over the place. Anal, vaginal, G-spot, and clit orgasms are most likely, all just related to different parts of the clit since it stretches back to your ass, just like a penis does in guys. The clit is just the secret sexual ninja that gives women orgams that it doesn't usually get credited for since it's parts are well hidden.

Exactly.

Indeed, as Angier describes the differences in anatomy are vast and the female vagina is much more that a turned in penis.

I'm pretty sure that Angier didn't describe the vagina as a "turned in penis"...unless she was referring to what a lot of people think. It's not the vagina that is the equivalent to the penis; it's the clitoris. And most researchers these days contend that all female orgasms are the result of clitoral stimulation. See this and this link, for examples. Even female orgasms brought on by psychological stimulation alone, for example, are felt in the clitoris in one way or another...considering the clitoris's anatomy and extension.

On a side note: Unless speaking of how it can be a psychological turn-on to have vaginal stimulation and that being enough to orgasm, I'm not sure why the poll separates "vaginal orgasm" from "G-Spot orgasm"...since the vagina has far too few nerve endings to induce orgasm without the aid of the G-Spot (if the particular woman even has a G-Spot), which is believed by most scientists to be an extension of the clitoris (again, see the two links I included above). But this poll shows what research has consistently shown -- 70-80% of women achieve orgasm only through direct clitoral stimulation. Therefore, I hate it when women feel that it's sad that they have not experienced an orgasm through vaginal penetration, when not experiencing that is actually the norm and easily understandable when people learn that the vagina does not have a lot of nerve endings (which is a factor that helps to significantly reduce pain during child birth).
