What Is the Point of the Female Orgasm?

so when did "orgasmability" become a word?

I am not a doctor or scientist. I am just your average human. My best guess why the males and females share common physical, social and psychology traits is we are the same human species. The similarities could just occur because the female in mating is not a kangaroo and the man is not bubble bee.

Yes, male and female human species share like characteristics.
I not surprised.

@eregorn8, I think it was about the same time "transmogrificatability" came into our common lexicon. :-)

Ok from a guy who has been with well more than his share of women, I can categorically say that for the most part, a genuine real and hard orgasm for a woman will legitimately change the way she interacts with you. Call it love or devotion or addiction, but she wants that feeling again. There are endorphens released as so on and so forth. Women from a sociobiological standpoint are built to find one or very few mates. Thus it is only logical that she is biologically rewarded for sticking to the same mate. Trust me when I say that when a chick isnt into you, she has a lot harder time getting off. It seems like common sense from where I stand. But I have been with lots of women...

TertiusGuy,
Oxytocin, alias the trust hormone may come into play to all you describe as well. It does get release a lot during touching.

@eregorn8,
My question is this. Did you understand the word?

If the answer is yes, then it is valid. Language is an evolution, it needs to get used some time.
Butun ðu behéfðu us stefna ealdgecynd aldgeddung.
(Poor attempt at "Unless you have us speaking Old English.")

English majors and their snobbery towards new words only hinders their ability to communicate.

If fidelity is maintained, the use of a new word, no harm causes it does.
(Oddly that sentence is not nailed by grammar check nor spell check (at least not by LibreOffice), yet is harder to understand than a new word.)

As far as the statistics:
Cultural aspects have really messed with women through the ages. Men still are left to their own when choosing mates, but women have massive pressures. Sexual attraction is complex, and involves every sense we have in both strong and subtle ways. In the past few centuries, everything from arranged marriage, to women being told they need to find a provider, I am curious what percentage of those 10% can't have an orgasm because their "orgasmability" is hindered from social selections instead of natural selections. Possibly even to the point of generations of mucked up breeding and causing mutations that would not normally appear.

@English Majors,
I apologize, as pointed out by my co-worker that is an English major, most English majors are not snobby about words.

This sounds like a nature vs nuture argument (pair-bonding=nature; by-product=nuture when really it's the other way around).

While pair-bonding has it's scientific merit in the natural selection of the mate most fit to bare children for a particular female (which would reflect their status amongst female in a clan), it also sounds like a theory born of the concept of scientifically legitimizing fairy-tale style love. In this instance Clitoral length seems be more logically quantifiable in mate compatibility as it pertains to pair-bonding.

As far as the by-product camp is concerned, evolution of a physiological function as the result of a biological counterpart's ability seems relevant but unlikely. The majority of biological make up that we have been allowed to witness in our corner of the universe has some kind of logical design or another. For this, females evolving the ability to have orgasms as a result of the male ability seems only barely logical.

While the reason for females having orgasms as a narcotic reaction to reproduction is very relevant, this doesn't necessarily mean that they were not originally designed for this. The article points out that females are less succeptible to orgasms than males. For which case, the question should not be what, but why, because I believe that the purpose is the same as for males; narcotic stimulus following sexual intercourse to perpetuate its act in the natural interest of reproduction for the species. Sounds like something every animalistic species on the planet is endowed with for species survival through reproduction. Though, I could be wrong. For that any zoologist can weigh in on the chemical reactions between animals in sexual intercourse.

@sacridias

I'm actually a physicist (the anti-english major) so I communicate using vague hand gestures and scribbled formulas. (I actually mis-spelled physicist the 1st 3 attempts).

I'd just say, 100 points to anyone who uses the words introduced here.

A. "Yes doctor, my orgasmability has dropped in recent months..."
D. "There's a pill for that!"

People always forget that 90% of men's sperm is designed to kill off and block all the other foreign sperm inside a woman's vagina. Evolution teaches us that females of our species got into heat and had sex with many partners in a short period of time. This has been happening for hundreds of thousands of years. The males have been competing in hordes to be the one that gets the lady pregnant. This likely explains the popularity of religion. It was devised to keep women as sexual shut-ins that would guarantee a male his offspring. There is no religion that does not seek to control a woman's sex life (that I'm aware of). Anyhow this would help explain the female orgasm. A male has his orgasm (as quickly as in 20 seconds in some apes and human teenagers) and walks off to allow the next male his chance at an orgasm. The female must have much more stimulation (and thus partners) to eventually succeed in orgasm. Thus the female get all the best sperm available and is in a position to have the most superior sperm reach her egg.

In this case the males get an orgy and then get to disappear and go hunting or whatever. Meanwhile the woman ends up pregnant and ends up raising the kid by herself. Sound familiar?

@Paxalot Good theory, but as humanity is (assumedly) not the only species that orgasms, and is the only species with religion, I doubt a connection.

dont guys have orgasms as well? i often hear guys moan alot.

Here's a different theory: Orgasm in women exists to facilitate conception *and* childbirth.

During orgasm oxytocin is released in the woman, this is a hormone that is well known as the "love" hormone, it increases a woman's trust, and bonding in her partner. This same hormone is present in high levels during birth, and during breastfeeding.

Orgasm in function is very similar to labor contractions, even in strength of contraction. Orgasm also opens up the cervix.

It's a rare phenomena now, but there are also documented cases of orgasm during birth.

Now for my theory. Women are meant to experience orgasm as reward for fertility. Birth is not meant to be the painful experience it is today (we have the early Church to thank for introducing the expectation of pain with labor, and modern media and hospital practices for continuing it). Child birth has also been removed from the sexual act that began it, so many women feel "dirty" or "pedophilic" if they enjoy their labors and births on an orgasmic level.

Tell me, if you're in a modern hospital room, raised to believe that childbirth is a horrific event, with a bunch of doctors and nurses staring at your crotch, would you be able to orgasm easily?

Unfortunately there aren't many places in the world today that haven't been touched by Christianity or Missionary influenced medicine, so testing this theory is practically impossible.

Actually, if you think about it...if women enjoy sex they are more likely to get pregnant and for the past couple of thousand years+ being pregnant has been very dangerous for women and even today poses a great health risk. So maybe women who orgasmed more easily died off more in the past thus leading to orgasm not being essential to breeding. It may also contribute to why women have more developed social sensitivity because selecting a mate is more about survivability of the offspring (i.e. will the father take care of the child if the mother dies) then the father's overall health (which is why 80 yr. old rich men still produce kids).

While all this is very polished, all this does is tell that a sister and brother's orgasms aren't connected but it completely fails to actually address the outlined theory as stated:

"The pair-bonding theory suggests that female orgasm bonds partners, ensuring two parents for the offspring, while mate selection offers that women use orgasm as a sort of litmus test for “quality” partners. The enhanced fertility theory, meanwhile, proposes that uterine contractions during female orgasm help to “suck up” sperm into the uterus."

Article titles like these are why scientists don't get laid.

Men and woman are different in life. I hope you find a match that nurtures all the inspires you in life. We all should learn the concept of nurturing. Just love the one your with.

"Article titles like these are why scientists don't get laid."

speak for yourself buddy! :)

I thought this had been figured out scientifically years ago! Male sperm (Y) are faster than female sperm (X), but the female sperm are more hardy. When a woman has an orgasm, the accompanying "squirt" fluids create a better environment (PH, etc.) for the male sperms to survive. In a harsher environment, the female sperm are more likely to win the race because the male sperm die out on the journey.

So, having an ejaculation while deep inside, and the woman having an orgasm, work together to create a male child since it's a short trip under good conditions. Ejaculating closer to the vulva (outer area) and the woman not climaxing favors creation of a female child because the sperm must travel farther under less ideal conditions.

Am I just making this up? It correlates with my own personal experience. It also makes sense in an evolutionary way. When the species is stressed and times are tough, the sex isn't as good. As a result, there are more female children produced to help increase the population (assuming all females will be impregnated and a few males will impregnate all available females).

So, the purpose of female orgasms is to increase the probablility of male offspring. Perhaps they should study that hypothesis.

I guess the premise of this article comes from everything that exist in your body, exist for some purpose otherwise it would not be there.

From that point of view you can stop and stair at you body and just wonder all day long, why do I have that or this and why do people do this or that?

How to fun to just ponder!

I can't believe this article didn't mention oxytocin. There is a wide world of wonder waiting for you when you learn about this lovely little peptide.

Another thing: one reason female orgasm takes longer in male-competitive species (in which males fight each other for breeding priority rather than wooing females with songs and plumage) is so that, should the victor turn out to be sterile, the bucks who lost to him -- and mate with the female after he does -- might have viable sperm even if the winner didn't. Delayed female orgasm encourages the female to mate with multiple partners rather than just the first one.

Since humans fall into this category, it's a thought.

Answer is probably a little of column A little column B. It serves as physical function by contracting the cervix, and it bonds her to her partner.

But what is the evolutionary purpose of the clitoris? A woman can have all the orgasms she ever needs if her partner is a good “speaker” and never has to have sex. LOL

Personally, I'd like to see less articles of this nature in PopSci. It's not that they are not interesting, or that they are not science, but...
I subscribe for the sake of my scientifically-oriented sons. But these young men do not need to be reading about how much protein a person gets from swallowing a man's semen or how the length and location of the clitoris contributes to orgasm statistics.

The first article about sex which I alluded to was offensive, to say the least. This second one about sex, not as much, although it borders on details that should not be published unless someone is researching sex-related material. But...that said...if I see ONE MORE article about sex that is graphically detailed and not suitable, in my opinion, for school-aged scientists-to-be, I am canceling my subscription.

lmao @ KingPatrickVII

TertiusGuy!!! GO TO YOUR ROOM YOUNG MAN AND NO YOU CAN NOT HAVE THE INTERNET TONIGHT!

I'm sure female orgasm has something to do with making it easier for the sperm to swim toward the egg, or actually help them physically move along via contractions. You might research this more...almost positive I read it somewhere...

I subscribed to PopSci BECAUSE they produce relevant articles like this. I'm also a high school science teacher; having read that some readers (as above) would be embarrassed to have their children read about the science of reproduction (or cancel their subscrip to the mag) is Sad!!

I would like to propose what I will call the "Awwwwww Ya!" theory of the female orgasm. It goes like this:

Once upon a time, there was an australopithecine with a random mutation that allowed her to feel real good when doing the nasty. Because this feeling did get in the way of breeding she did, and this trait was passed along to her descendants. Because breeding was rough many women who did not experience pleasure while having sex avoided it, while the women who had more pleasure engaged in it more freely. In addition, orgasms during menstration reduce cramping, and thus led to less homocide. Eventually, most females had some degree of pleasurability during sex, but once again, those that enjoyed it made fewer excuses about not having sex and as a result produced more off-spring, and had happier husbands, who prospered as a result of the symbiosis, allowing him to take care of more children.

If this theory is correct and progressive, in another 100k years you won't be able to look at a women without her having an orgasm, and we will all be filthy rich. Awwwwww ya!

"And, unlike male orgasm, female orgasm isn’t a prerequisite for pregnancy"

If this were true, the "pull out and pray" method would be like 97% effective...

The female orgasm is a 100% highly desirable recreational activity as in almost 100% of the male orgasms. The only way a woman can reach orgasm is when is done with her chosen partner at her chosen time. The process requires the rubbing of the vulva with slow and soft strokes and it may take around 15 minutes. The location of the rubbing may have to changed about every 4 minutes as the rubbed area becomes numb. The clitoris should not be touched. There is a similarity between this process and Ravel's Bolero where the tempo is constant, the intensity increases and lasts about 15 minutes and ends in total disaray. There not such a thing as vaginal orgasms.

How long does it take for a woman to have an orgasm?......Who gives a Sh**.

Of course it serves a purpose!
If women really really enjoy sex, they want more of it.
This keeps their man happy!

Ok, people ... just settle down.
I can solve this dillema AND answer all your questions, with authority.
... Just loan me 100 attractive females and I'll get back to you, in a year or two (once my double-blind study is complete).

= glad to be able to help ! =

Many theories are seen, but without proof, no theory is any more than imagination, and most of these are not even theories, but just a postulation of a theory. This issue remains unsolved. I would like to know how theological biologist can be considered a scientist at all. Biology exists even if you don't "believe" in it.

For those who don't care about female orgasms, vinyl partners are available.

Why do men and woman hold hands? Holding hands is not a requirement to procreation. Perhaps the emotional part of us humans to have an organism is in the same context as why we hold hands. It’s just part of our emotional make up and less a biologically function. I love it when my baby ews and ahs… its just beautiful. Oh the word beautiful is not biological too. We humans are really complex and much more than biology and pure chemistry.

My theory is that the point of the female orgasm existance is so females could plausibly fake it if they want. If female orgasms didn't exist, they couldn't fake one ever, because the guy would know that they are lying. So they invented the female orgasm so the guy will think they are actually having one when they fake it.

MommaMidwife is NUTS!

This from a senior lady with four children, a hysterectomy more than 30 years ago and orgasms (still) whenever I wish with or without a uterus, or a cervix and with or without a guy.

Good Lord! Ogasmic births! BS! Pregnant ladies RUN. Run very fast in the other direction from this supposed midwife!

In response to those discussing anatomic compatibility, that's where it's at, for sure. A good fit matters. You will know it when you feel it. A bad fit is not worth looking for other good traits in a partner for the next 50 years. You will regret settling. Unless you also have other partners...

This so-called study looks to have been done by really young, naive people looking for grant money.

A female orgasm would likely be an essential incentive for women to let men stick it in. Without interest, there is no lubrication for association.

According to Dr. Wilhelm Reich, a brilliant Physician who studied the natural function of the body, orgasms are a function that a human being requires for health. Energy is a life spring of our existence. Our bodies are producing energy all the time at the cellular level, and we need to discharge that energy. Orgasm is the accumulation of positive (healthy) energy which reaches a maximum point and then a contraction occurs which releases that energy. The body is at a state of satisfaction and relaxation. If the person is healthy, there are no blocks to that energy.

To summarize Dr. Reich at a very basic level, he believed that without the flow, accumulation and release of life energy, health cannot be attained or sustained. His research showed how certain disease states exist as the result of stasis. Further, his work revealed the process by which the inability to have orgasm results in various neurotic, psychotic, depressive, and sadistic disorders, to name a few. His is well known for this focus also on character disorders. Inversely, his work successfully treated some of these disorders by alleviating the physical blocks in various parts and organs of the body which were the basis for them and which concurrently inhibited orgasmic sexual satisfaction.

Orgasm is construed as a necessary function of the living organism, and not merely for the pleasure of it. According to Dr. Reich, it is pleasurable because it is healthy and vital.

Following Dr. Reich's death, Dr. Robert Dew continued his
research. The Journal of Orgonomy contains this line of research performed by respected, highly degreed, and practicing Physicians.

Dr. Reich's work has been widely misrepresented in the general population, and has been widely ignored by much of the medical establishment. If you research Dr. Reich's work, only those associated with the Journal of Orgonomy and the related association of medical practitioners are authorized to practice and represent this specific body of work.

Only a scientist would worry about "what's the point". Any woman who's ever had an orgasm never worries about "what's the point". If women have trouble achieving orgasm, it's because they're having sex with men who have never learned anything about female anatomy (including "jaime" above). Lesbians achieve orgasm with little trouble at all, and are well aware that the clitoris is DEFINITELY touched.

Love it when people state categorically that vaginal orgasims don't exist. They most certainly do exist, just not in your world apparantly. Sorry about that.

Paxalot writes "This likely explains the popularity of religion. It was devised to keep women as sexual shut-ins that would guarantee a male his offspring. There is no religion that does not seek to control a woman's sex life (that I'm aware of)."

I belong to one of those religions that holds that sexual intercourse is for monogamous married couples only. I emphatically do not feel like a sexual shut-in. Far from being oppressed, my husband and I are liberated from sexually transmitted diseases, having our children grow up without a father or mother, jealousy, adultery, and a myriad of other problems that developed with the so-called sexual revolution i.e. free love. We also used natural family planning to space our children five years apart. Our sex life is great because of the deep intimacy we developed over 28 years of a faithful loving committed relationship. And yes we have orgasms when we want, but our sex life is not directed to orgasm being the goal. Being in harmony with God's plan brings a lot more satisfaction sexually and otherwise.

Furthermore, I resent this statement by JediMindSet "The people of the world only divide into two kinds, One sort with brains who hold no religion, The other with religion and no brain." There are many people with advanced degrees who are also very religious. Faith and reason are not mutually exclusive. You should Pope John Paul II's work Fides Et Ratio. If you had, you would not make that statement. The Catholic Church established the university system, the scientific method, observatories, and more in the pursuit of knowledge. You read works written by the doctors of the Church and you will be awe of their intelligence.

"So, the purpose of female orgasms is to increase the probablility of male offspring. Perhaps they should study that hypothesis."

Kundo: Whoever wrote the Bible seems to have known this. "When a woman conceives (literally "seeds") and gives birth to a male..." (Lev. 12:2). At least some modern commentators claim that that's talking about when a woman orgasms first. Later in verse 5, where it talks about giving birth to a female, it doesn't mention the man orgasming, but it's implied by mentioning the woman in verse 2.

i propose that the female orgasm serves a procreative function through the mechanism of a variable reinforcement schedule. according to learning theory, we learn things through reinforcement. a variable reinforcement schedule is best explained through the analogy of playing slot machines. people are motivated to play slots because of the big pay day that they will achieve if they get lucky. the chances are small that they will achieve the big pay off, but they continue to play slots because once in a while they do get lucky and receive the reward. the joy of winning drives individuals to engage in multiple attempts in the future to once again experience this great winning feeling.

during sexual intercourse, the female orgasm is one of the rewards. it isn't achieved all the time during sexual intercourse, but once in a while it does indeed happen. consistent with learning theory, the reinforcement that female orgasms provide to the sexual partners drives future attempts to achieve the reward again. the multiple attempts then increase the odds of successful fertilization.

Interesting - mojoanne's comment wasn't there when I posted mine just now. I'm not promoting the Bible, just sharing what it says, however whoever said it knew it.

Mojoanne, I'm very happy that you believe that your beliefs provide you with such a meaningful sex life. I'm not sure, however, that the historical church was so progressive.

Also, a person can have advanced degrees and wisdom in one area, and be totally wrong and deluded in another. You yourself believe that, since many if not most people with advanced degrees DON'T have your kind of faith! Faith and reason may not be mutually exclusive, but they do tend to be mutually repelling, like matching poles of two magnets.

The church may have established the scientific method, but only uses it to promote it's own agenda. That's not objective science. Perhaps, for example, the Big Bang happened in a previously existing universe, and doesn't therefore support creation ex nihilo like monotheists want it to.

Let's start off with this...

It is my hope that the non-same sex twins and same-sex twins are not achieving orgasm together. I would like to draw your attention to the following gem from the above article:

"Zietsch and Santtila found strong orgasmability correlations among same-sex identical twins, and weaker yet still significant similarities between same-sex non-identical twins and siblings. However, they found zero correlation in orgasm function between opposite-sex twins. “We show that while male and female orgasmic function are influenced by genes, there is no cross-sex correlation in orgasmic function -- women’s orgasmability doesn’t correlate with their brother’s orgasmability,” explains Zietsch. “As such, there is no path by which selection on male orgasm can be transferred to female orgasm, in which case the by-product theory cannot work.”

Everyone read this very slowly. I know that is not the intent behind the author's thoughts regarding this topic, but that not now I perceive the information as it is written. If that is the intent...there are a all of crazy Finnish folks out there.

The next gem actually appears before my first comment...

"...They looked for similarities in orgasm function between female and male twins. If the by-product theory of female orgasm is true, they say, this similarity should exist. Due to the inherent differences in orgasm between women and men, females were asked to report how often they had orgasms during sex and how difficult they were to achieve, while males were asked how long it took them to reach orgasm during the act and how often they felt they ejaculated too quickly or too slowly."

First off...what man is going to say he orgasmed too soon or too late or didn't O at all? That would be concidered an attack on his manhood. As for the other side, the female side, I'm not allowed to stop "Stimulating" my wife until she has achieved her goal at least twice. 'Nuff on that.

And finally...I can't resist heckling another commentee. We live in a world were more and more information is being given to our children from outside sources, whether that be in school, in books, or yes, even the Internet.

KingPatrickVII would you rather you two little (even though you use the term men) scientists-to-be learn about the female orgasm in a strip club, a back alley, or dare I say it, in college (which is where most things are learned and or discovered anyway)? Or would you rather have them see the scientific method applied to this subject, in a scientific format, and presented as a scientific study?

In short...why don't you join us in the 21st century and leave the Puritan and Quaker mentality at the door. PopSCI always has had fun little tidbits of information, even "interesting" ones like this...and always presented as a type of scientific research. Trust me...your kids will thank you later for it.

Does "orgasm during sex" mean "during vaginal coitus"? If so, it's true that few woman have such orgasms. But in my experience many women have orgasms, even female ejaculations, during cunnilingus.
A good theory (and I consider evolution a good theory) should be like a microscope, not a pair of blinders, but there's a climate today that I would call "Old Testament Revisited." Instead of God commanding "Be fruitful and multiply!" genes are allegedly manipulating us to "Maximize reproductive success!" Freud, as brilliant as he was, was so mesmerized by assuming sex could only be meant for procreation, that he could not understand why women have orgasms or why a woman has a clitoris. Reich, mentioned by an earlier commenter, understood much better. Could it ever occur to anyone that the chief value of sex is not instrumental but intrinsic? I can imagine all too easily some psychodynamic theorist asking "How did coitus become sexualized?" I wonder how the "sex is for procreation" people deal with the fact that God so loved us that She designed men to get powerful orgasms from being anally penetrated. Both oral and anal sex are profoundly pleasurable to both giver and receiver, regardless of gender, and neither causes conception.

@AncientWisdom,

Just for clarification and your information, the rectum is not a sexual organ. It's an organ for the release of feces which is full of pathogenic (disease causing)organisms.

To Mojoanne-

You wrote...

"Furthermore, I resent this statement by JediMindSet "The people of the world only divide into two kinds, One sort with brains who hold no religion, The other with religion and no brain." There are many people with advanced degrees who are also very religious. Faith and reason are not mutually exclusive. You should [read]Pope John Paul II's work Fides Et Ratio.

Resent away...but lets remember that the Church tends to publicly shun and/or excommunicate ideas it does not support, regardless of the proof presented. Creationism and Evolution come to mind. I don't believe I need to state the Church's position on that.

Furthermore what happened to men (scientists) who challenged the Church's views on things like the Earth being Flat, a Sun-centered solar system, and Biology? In a few cases, they were forced to reverse their findings or be labeled a heretic. In others...they were taken out and executed.

And this comment...

"...The Catholic Church established the university system, the scientific method, observatories, and more in the pursuit of knowledge..."

...is somewhat wrong in its own right. The University system and the scientific method were created by the Greeks.
Observatories were, at first, created to dispel that there other planets in our solar system, then later looked upon as objects against the Church when they couldn't be twisted in that fashion. In short, if the Church believes that something scientific goes against the Church's established views on the World, Nature, Man, and God, they will denounce it. They have even been known to dispel fictional scientific theories presented in mainstream science fiction. Several "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episodes, especially those dealing with the evolution of life forms and the concept that all bipedal humanoid-type life forms presented in the series came from one Source were denounced and excommunicated by the Church. If they can do this to a show that is set 300 to 400 yrs in the future and is fictional, then they will do it for real theory and real research. Another recent field to come under attack is the research being done by the LHC and its search for the Higgs particle.

Now...that being said, I do believe that one must have Faith. Faith is what gives us Hope and Hope is what drives us forward to expand, explore, and improve ourselves. Does one have to have religion to have Faith? That is not an answer that I can give because it will be different for all.

It is also off topic and will only serve to inflame this Board with mindless sermons filled with damnation, brimstone, and fire. Very uncivilized and very unscientific so I won't go there.

-kicks the soapbox off to the side-

From article: “As such, there is no path by which selection on male orgasm can be transferred to female orgasm, in which case the by-product theory cannot work.”

It may not work now, but that certainly doesn't rule out that it worked in the past.

Why cant it just be about women getting to have the same euphoric release that men get.. And I make that statement because I believe only "Women" have orgasms, not all female species.. So what is good for him should be good for me also..

Women are different from all other animals in terms of fertility.. With all other animals, when they are in season, they bleed.. But when women are most fertile, is not when they bleed.. We are different from the rest..

Woe to us all when a "science" publication puts a lame-o theory in print like it has any validity.
The woman is a philosopher and a theoretical biologist whatever that degree stands for.
Let's try to be a little more intelligent. Don't you think there may be an evolutionary PHYSICAL reason? Well an excellent documentary was filmed by real scientists way back in the 70s or 80s and the videos showed clearly that the spasms of the muscles during orgasm push the end of the uterus against the wall of the vagina right about where the sperm collects. After you have seen this you will not wonder anymore. Jesus, has this idiot ever heard of research?

I don't doubt that the pleasant feelings also increase the desire to do it but that is supplemental at best. And to the last poster, chefslb, estrus in female species is not bleeding, they "get wet" like humans and smell. If they are bleeding they are actively purging the unused egg. This is a science magazine?

C'mon folks, instead of reading this stuff and nodding or drooling or anything do some more research, so you think this is the first person to ask the question? My god, a theoretical biologist, that's is just the most stupid title I have ever heard of, do you think that a true biologist is not automatically a theorist when pondering the world or do you all think that when you graduate with a degree you are a bona fide expert that knows everything?
Oh I thought so, that's why we're here now, very sad…

Obviously, the female orgasm was designed by God as an incentive for her to desire to have sex and procreate, which ensures the survival of the species. Ridiculous to think that the clitoris just developed by accident. God did the same thing for the male. He gave us an appetite for eating and sex and made both pleasurable so we would survive. Not that hard to figure out, people.

This study isn't very good as it suffers heavily from self report bias, hindsight bias, and it is retrospective study.

Also, MALE orgasm isn't a prerequisite for pregnancy, either. Try not to propagate any more myths.

The only explanation why women and men have orgasm is so we can enjoy the procreation experience (not from a religious point of view). Copulating would be a tasking if we didnt have orgasm. We humans are creatures that respond well to rewards, therefore nature managed to developed this action to a level we can respond well and look forward to it.

Imagine sex without orgasm, I doubt there would be as many humans (or none) on this planet without it!!

In Russia men and women both have orgasms all the time, since they have socialism. In the United States the females started getting orgasms after Susan B Anthony fought for the equal rights of women. Now to be politically correct, if men have orgasms, females also need to have orgasms. We live in a society where women are considered equal to men. So without orgasms women may feel inferior. Though there are a lot of fighters fighting for equality among men and women, women still haven't gotten on a level playing field with men. Once women start getting orgasms in 1 minute after the start of sex, then men and women will be on a level playing field.

Greetings Dear Sister Jennifer and Friends, How are We Feeling today? Though this is My Favorite Subject and I'm indeed Most Encouraged by Your Decision to publish an Article about it, I Always Proceed with Caution if I don't Notice any Mention by the Author of Psycho-somatic Medicine, Orgone Energy, Bions, Character Analysis, Orgasm Formula, P H Balance or any reference to Dr. Freud or His Protege Dr. Reich in reports about The Orgasm, subjects which would seem to be germane to any Genuine Search for Answers regarding The Most Natural of what is Natural...Le Petit Mort...Hysterical Paroxysm! My Dear Sister and I have Devoted Our Lives to Comprehending this unmentionable subject as it relates to Matters of The Heart, Soul, Mind, Body and Spirit. Frankly, We are concerned about the tenor in which this title broaches the subject and We would like to offer Our Counsel to You and Your Remarkable Publication which should be able to Answer this Question in All Candor as Scientists and Scholars with Our Guidance! The Global Commercial and Cultural environment evinces the effects of the psychic plague of irrationality which infests all contact-less Social Structures in Our World and Our Species' Destiny Demands that People of Conscience treat the Subject of Mental Hygiene which results from Orgastic Potency with the utmost gravity and concomitant levity it deserves, do You agree Dear Sister Jennifer?

Since evolution is still considered a theory, basing a theory on a theory would seem to be theoretical at best.

In a Nutshell, Pun intended, to answer the question,The Function of The Orgasm is wane and wax or Respiratory, to detoxify cells i.e. The Orgasm Formula or Mechanical Tension, Electrical Charge, Electrical Discharge, Mechanical Relaxation, can only work properly as a Biological Function of Meiosis/Mitosis and since dammed-up, undischarged Orgone Energy creates toxicity in the Blood Stream, Orgasm is Nature's Means of Phase Modulation in the Heart since the Orgasm Reflex causes the wave of Pleasure to begin in The Mind as Spirit then it transmutes into muscular undulations commencing in the pelvis,down the legs, up the spine to the brain and down into the heart where the Energy is resolved as Spirit evinced by heavy breathing and panting which release toxicity from the Blood Stream, the Climax, which leads to Relaxation! The Point is Mental Hygiene which helps One build Good Character...The Essence of Beauty!

WHAT A LOAD OF C*AP.

This got funded? Seriously. Money went to this. "orgasmability" is important, but can't we just be happy we have them and move on. So many more immediate things need the focus and funds.

crackerhead said we were not always ying & yang . we were once unisex , having a-sexual reproduction ! like the worm maybe it would take 2 but both had male and female parts . a mans testicles are a womans ovarys . the vagina is a penis inverted . a man reaches climax more often and faster because he is stimulated inside . the head of the panis is where the main pleasure comes from , so the clitoris is the same as the penis head . iminagine a pinis inside out! It was probly during cell division this happened. IF a bacteria can cause mammals to change from egg laying to live birth it stands to reason we were one sex before we seperated into 2 sexes . we have been many different spiecies . it also gives a same sex relationship merit. we are animals look to that kingdom as cousins.

How stupid do you have you be to ask? 1:Pleasure=endorphins/hormones documented beneficial to body/mind. 2: Non rejection of fertilization. 3: Affirmation of bonding/security rather than more chance of wandering off. 4: ORGASMS ROKKON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The point of the orgasm is probably the same thing for me. lots of blood flowing to a particular part of the body that will eventually give off to a great sensation. when you are done with your orgasm slog it slogreport.com

My church does not try to control the lives of women. The Church of Cum One Cum All does NOT discriminate.

The reasons women have an organism, is because there was no chocolate available in the house and this is the closest thing available.

The modern scientific method was not created by the Ancient Greeks, while they did contribute to it with the Socratic method and Syllogism, the father of the scientific method was a catholic bishop named Robert Grosseteste. While one can make an argument for the Greeks being the forerunners of the University system, once again, advanced education after the Dark Ages was brought to you again by the catholic church. Not liking some of the things the catholic church has done (or even all of the things) does not change facts and you should be more enlightened and skeptical than that. There was also a ridiculous assertion that most people with advanced education were not religious. Seeing as less than 2% of the population of the US are Atheists and significantly more than 35% have degrees, well, that idea shows a distinct lack of research as well.

Studies between fraternal siblings of differing genders would produce no more genetic correlation than studies with siblings who were not twins. Though there might be correlation based on pre-natal hormonal exposure. One explanation of the female orgasm could be as simple as a non-selective trait, like baldness in men, or longevity beyond childbearing years in women.

re: dontbother. If the rectum is not a sex organ, how come stimulating it can cause a man to have a prostate orgasm, complete with a discharge of semen? Is an orgasm not a form of sexual pleasure? (FYI, a prostate orgasm differs from an ejaculation. The voluptuous sensations seem to fill the entire pelvic area.) With millions of men enjoying being the receiver of anal sex, the nihilistic view signals ideology trumping experience. I'll add that many women enjoy anal sex. It seems to me that nature makes pleasurable what's biologically adaptive, and that pleasure itself has health benefits (intrinsic value). Oral and anal sex can be loving, be it other-gender or same-gender. (Yes, I think oral sex is pleasurable regardless of gender, and it can be LGBT or hetero.) Isn't it time to say goodbye to Mrs. Grundy and the Bowdlers and the Comstocks? I also think the greatest feminists (e.g., Betty Friedan) have understood the positive connection between women's sexual freedom and the women's movement. When you study cultures in which women have higher status (e.g., Ladakh), you find that they also have greater sexual freedom.

Back in the happy days of the Garden of Eden, God was handing out goodies to Adam and Eve from His Bag of Goodies. Eventually, He got to the bottom of the bag and told them He only had two more items, and who wanted "to pee while standing up?"

"I do! I do!! I doooo!!! cried Adam while jumping up and down in all his enthusiasm for the coolness, fun and creativity that would come with the ability to pee while standing up.

"Ok! Ok!! Okaaaay!!!" God announced to Adam, as He then turned to Eve, who sat looking dejectedly at them both.

"Eve," said God as he reached into His bag for the leftover item, "I guess that just leaves you with multiple orgasms..."

Now the sad part of this study is that while the researchers who are probably phD students or highly educated professors are sitting in lab stools scratching their half bald heads trying to figure out why women have orgasms, most of the high school dropouts are utilizing the same time to actually bang some chicks and are getting the orgasms.

I wish these researchers would actually stop wasting tax payer money and stop doing these foolish studies and go home and bang their wives or (husbands) or even the neighborhood chick and have some real orgasms instead as nature intended.

But one thing for sure. As a person gets more and more educated, there are less and less people interested in banging them, whether it be the male sex or the female sex. So these researchers probably have no other option other than to dream about orgasms and write about it rather than actually get an orgasm while doing it.

JohnPopSci,

I have complained in the past of a scientific study being a waste of tax payer money; you should have heard the wailing, gnashing of teeth and so much whining that all studies are considered necessary in the name of science.

Though if you are a profit organization and you want to keep ratings high, bring up subjects of sex and violence to help gain or maintain popularity and profitability. In the multimedia, most movies today are those 2 things, sex and violence and less about story.

I imagine some studies are done to help just pay the bills and less about true science and betterment of humanity.

Everyone needs to read Sex at Dawn. Women evolved to have sex with many men in sequence for a longer period of time, that's why they have trouble having an orgasm with one man when the sex only lasts a few minutes. We aren't broken! They also have done studies that show orgasm sucks sperm up into the uterus.
Read Sex at Dawn, really explains alot of things about sex that don't make sense if you listen to the standard narrative.

the point of the female orgasm is to extract a batch of baby batter...the sole biological reason.....now pleasuring the kitten to orgasm is a whole different science in its own

Some commenters do not seem to understand the distinction between orgasm and ejaculation in the human male. Others merely ignore the difference, or perhaps actually believe that "men always have one."

Fascinating Discussion! It seems dontbother and ancientWisdom among Others are onto something and I'm sure They would Agree that Truth is stranger than fiction and Dr. Reich's work is strangest of all and it Reminds Me of Ankh Science since even His symbol to reference the flow of Orgone Energy resembles The Ancient Egyptian Symbol for Eternal Life...Woman on Top! He even went so far as to suggest The Trobriander Peoples are a Model of Ideal Society with a Natural Balance between Matriarchy and Patriarchy which is Mutually Beneficial and resolves conflicts Peacefully for the sake of posterity! Hold that Thought! I Wonder if Our Dear Commenters would Agree that More and Better Research should be conducted which provides reliable and reusable data to inform People Who want to Comprehend this riddle wrapped in enigma shrouded in mystery...would popsci be willing to go there?

Ever Wonder why Dr. Reich threw down the gauntlet...'Orgasm or Fascism' or why the very 1st Medical device made was created as a response to this very subject We are discussing or why the internet is often referred to as an electronic dildo the principle tool used by 19th century physicians to address this common condition among many of Our Dear Sisters suffering from:

Love, Joy, Peace and Elbow Grease by Basic Black Eagle

I am a woman with 8 children between the ages of 25 and 2 years old. I have had 6 miscarriages. I orgasm easily, every time, within 1 to 20 minutes of beginning intercourse, typically get pregnant if there is no protection used and have almost no desire for sex unless I am ovulating. Whether or not I have already had an orgasm, I always do again when I feel my partner orgasm and I feel that my orgasm helps to pull out his sperm and guide it where its going. Orgasm by itself does not bring me closer to my mate, but a partner who has strong orgasms, thereby giving me strong orgasms will bring me to prefer him sexually above all others. I am certain that it aids in conception and can always tell immediately whether or not that orgasm has gotten me pregnant. When I get pregnant, I feel an immediate feeling of satisfaction like eating something that you have been craving for a long, long time. I feel completely satiated and have absolutely no desire for sex again for at least 6 weeks or sometimes for the entire pregnancy. If I do not get pregnant, I continue to crave sex voraciously for three or four days til the desire gradually fades til my next ovulation. For me, sex without pregnancy is almost irritating, because it feels like my body strains so hard and my orgasms get stronger and stronger with no satisfaction. Orgasms definitely aid in conception and may be a determining factor in why some women get pregnant every time and others almost never do.

Maybe the writer of this article was delegated to write it. I just feel it was a lam subject from the get go and we readers should just let it die. I think the writer is an awesome writer. THE THE THE OH LET IT BE THE END!

I want to respond to the article by Jennifer Abbasi posted on Popsci a few days ago 'What Is the Point of the Female Orgasm?' and share the quotations of the greatest scientist Wilhelm Reich here. Acording to Dr. Reich:

1. "I maintain that every person who has succeeded in preserving a

certain amount of naturalness knows this : those who are psychically

ill need but one thing - complete and repeated genital gratification.
"
2." The fact that man's sexual organs do not function in a normal way,

thus precluding sexual gratification for both sexes, that this is the

cause of most psychic misery and even has a bearing on the cancer
scourge, was too simple to be perceived. "Shared with Permission by Ekatherine Eka

"Since evolution is still considered a theory, basing a theory on a theory would seem to be theoretical at best."
Well said!

Macro-evolution, LMAO.

It happens I am created being rather a spiritual man. I did never look to have sex with anyone else (you know, I am not the only one… Jesus lived this way I guess). But sometimes I feel the need to please the girl I am with so I help her get an orgasm just by listening to me. Fortunately, women look for more than having an orgasm so my girls had to find out some other guys and ended up living with good husbands (I hope).

@KingPatrickVII

If you wish for your child to become educated in the ways of life, do not mask what you want them to see... Information and theory on why there are HUMAN ACTIONS shouldnt be considered inappropriate for young kids.. Thus we have health class. Are you the same parent who doesnt allow their child to play video games? I imagine you are raising a child who might not ever need to know about the female orgasm. Articles on sex, sexuality, human function isnt the same as pornography.

You will be able to find the answer to this question in the book of the great scientist and psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich "The Function Of The Orgasm". But until you read the book maybe this article will also give you a clear impression about it...

"Love,work and knowledge are the well-springs of our life. They
should also govern it."
I would love to start this article with the words of the Great
Scientist and Psychoanalyst Dr. Wilhelm Reich,as the subject I'm going
to touch is "The Most Natural of What Is Natural" and the Most Vital
for All Living Beings. It serves health,natural happiness and the
prosperity for individuals as well as in masses. Yes,this is The
Function Of The Orgasm...

...Could we just imagine,once,even once our Beautiful God Made Planet
Earth without any borders,without any inhibitions,without
wars,aggression and injustice... Just let's imagine everyone loving
each other,living and working in peace and harmony for global
happiness,for the happiness and prosperity of each individual,each
family,each community and then together working for the happiness of
the whole world... How Amazing it would be... Is it so impossible?...

God created this beautiful world... The whole universe works in
peace and harmony according to the God's Divine Will and Pleasure...
He gave us life and the ability to live and survive in our beautiful
blue and green planet,in this wonderful,God made world,live in peace
and harmony,with Truth,Love and Belief... "Be Fruitful And Multiply
And Replenish The Earth And Subdue Earth"-BFAMARTEASE... But what
happens instead in reality? People suffer from different kinds of
severe illnesses,daily we witness different forms of aggression
between people toward each other,between
countries,violence,injustice,dictatorship,wars,poverty... All these
are the results of the fact that people have lost naturality and have
acquired modern civilized character full of artificial inhibitions and
layers,and lies... Unfortunately people lack of knowledge... However
strange it could seem to some people the reason of all these misery
and injustice is the negative energy,undischarged "dammed-up
biological energy" in our bodies,that becomes the source of irrational
actions,aggression,neuroses and different kinds of illnesses,even
cancer... "The fact that man's sexual organs do not function in a
normal way,thus precluding sexual gratification for both sexes, that
this is the cause of most psychic misery and even has a bearing on the
cancer scourge, was too simple to be perceived."-says Wilhelm Reich.
Yes,though the civilized society has reached great modern achievements
today,unfortunately people really lack of knowledge,and according to
Dr. Wilhelm Reich,"Man is the sole biological species that has
destroyed its own natural sexual function and is sick as a consequence
of this." These words say a lot. Our patriarchal society,which is far
away from naturality,suppress the Naked Truth in many different
ways... Morality,tradition,religion are the artificial,man made
creations that work against naturality,so against the well being of
people in the whole world... As Wilhelm Reich explains "The vital
energies regulate themselves naturally,without compulsive duty or
compulsive morality..." and all those artificial creations in the
society prevent the vital energies to function naturally and we
receive the problems which destroy us... All of them have the psychic
core. "Psychic illnesses are the result of a disturbance of the
natural ability to love"- says Wilhelm Reich. It means that many
people are not able to surrender completely to the natural,biological
impulses to receive the genital gratification because of different
artificial inhibitions and become sick mentally and physically.
Wilhelm Reich has devoted his whole life to solve these problems of
humanity: "I maintain that every person who has succeeded in
preserving a certain amount of naturalness knows this: those who are
psychically ill need but one thing - complete and repeated genital
gratification."
So what is the most natural,vital function of our bodies and how
it works for our well being?... God created us. He gave our vital
organs the ability to function naturally,in balance and harmony... We
feel hunger,thirst,cold,heat,pleasure,pain,we feel different emotions
and our inner systems give us signals to respond them and thus,our
organism is complex of lots of biological,chemical and physical
processes... Sexual feelings are right the same. Our organisms give us
signals,that they need to be discharged from the biological
energy,that is only capable by orgasm... Wilhelm Reich has discovered
the biological energy,which is life giving and which exists in the
nature. He called it Orgon Energy... It is everywhere around us,"in
the soil,in the atmosphere,and in plant and animal organisms. The
flickering of the sky,which some physicists ascribe to terrestrial
magnetism,and the glimmering of stars on clear dry nights,are direct
expressions of the movement of the atmospheric orgon." - says the
scientist. It is in our bodies as well... He discovered microscopic
blue coloured vesicles,which he called bions and which are able to be
charged and carry orgon energy through a living organism... Our
organisms constantly need to renew the amount of it. To say in mere
words,dammed-up biological,sexual energy,which is harmful and which is
the source of many different psychic and physical illnesses must be
discharged completely and replaced by a new amount of energy,which is
healthy and life giving. "The living organism contains orgon energy in
each one of its cells,and continuously charges itself orgonotically
from the atmosphere by means of respiration. The "red" blood
corpuscles are microscopic,orgon-charged vesicles having a blue
glimmer; they carry biological energy from the surface of the alveoli
of the lungs to the body tissues." - explains Dr. Reich. We are able
to detoxify our organisms with this life giving energy by means of
heavy breathing and panting during sexual act. Orgasm is itself the
complex chemical,biological and psychic process. Dr. Reich formulated
the Orgasm Formula,which is as follows: "MECHANICAL
TENSION,BIOELECTRIC CHARGE,BIOELECTRIC DISCHARGE,MECHANICAL
RELAXATION." Sexual tension is Mechanical. The electrical charge of
tension is felt throughout the body,and especially in the regions of
heart and abdomen. And it is gradually concentrated in the sexual
organs. Genitals become congested with blood and fluids. This is
electrical charge. And the process of friction increases the tension
until it reaches the climax,involuntary muscular convulsions of the
genitals and the entire body,-electrical discharge,which leads to
mechanical relaxation and gratification. When there is no
inhibition,sexual energy is always completely discharged and
gratification is received,which leads to mental hygiene and physical
health. "The orgasm reflex is a unitary response of the total body. In
the orgasm,we are nothing but a pulsating mass of plasm." - says Dr.
Reich... Orgasm Formula can be also called the "life formula", because
it is the same process during cell division,-"the division of the
egg,like cell division in general,is an orgastic process. It is
governed by the tension-charge function." The amount of the discharged
energy during orgasm completely depends on the amount of the charged
energy,-"the gentler the stimulus,the steeper the increase." and "The
greater and steeper the "drop" of the excitation,the more intense the
pleasure." Sex is not just a physical act,but the union of the
heart,mind,body,spirit. Because of different kinds of inhibitions in
the society people are not able to be free with their natural desires
and feelings. Tradition,culture,morality,religion make people suppress
their natural feelings. People who are brought up in
patriarchal,moralistic families with the negative attitude toward
sexuality and life,are always inhibited to express their true
themselves,and are not able to surrender to their natural life
impulses acquiring character armor... "The patriarchal laws pertaining
to religion,culture,and marriage were predominantly laws against
sexuality." "Compulsive Morality",as Wilhelm Reich calls it,sets
artificial standards for people what they should and what they should
not. It starts from the very beginning of an individual's life,from
early childhood,starting with the strict toilet training and
suppressing children's sexuality. That's why an individual looses the
ability to be free and natural. It is also expressed in their
unhealthy breathing. Breathing technique of a neurotic person always
differs from a healthy one and also they acquire "dead pelvis",and are
not able to move them during sexual act to be charged adequately. That
is very important. Unhealthy,patriarchal,moralistic
families,environment and lifestyle make people to obtain artificial
character to cover their real own selves,and be more adjusted to the
society that surrounds them. Civilized person develops "psychic
structure consisting of three layers" under which their real
personality is hidden. As Dr. Reich explains "the character armor and
the muscular armor are functionally identical." In his book "The
Function Of The Orgasm" Wilhelm Reich shows that people are
Orgastically potent or impotent right according to the ability to
surrender to the sexual feelings,which let them be able to completely
discharge the sexual energy and receive the full genital gratification
which leads to mental hygiene and physical health... "Orgastic potency
is the capacity to surrender to the flow of biological energy,free of
any inhibitions; the capacity to discharge completely the dammed-up
sexual excitation through involuntary,pleasurable convulsions of the
body." Orgastically potent person is able to receive wise decisions.
He or she is able to work in harmony with pleasure,without compulsive
moralistic duty. "Morality contra nature" - says Dr. Reich and shows
the difference between the "moralistic regulation and sex-economic
self-regulation". "The sex-economically regulated person is capable of
closing himself to one situation an opening to another. He is in
control of his armor because he does not have to hold back forbidden
impulses." While a moralistic regulated person acquires pleasure
anxiety... Every person who is psychically ill,has some kinds of
genital disturbances,which make dammed up sexual energy impossible to
be completely discharged,and which is always the result of psychic
inhibition. Only the genital apparatus is able to discharge the
biological energy. Wilhelm Reich explains,that "The climax represents
the turning point in the course of the excitation,i.e.prior to the
climax the direction of the excitation is toward the genital;
subsequent to the climax,the excitation flows away from the genital.
It is this complete return of the excitation from the genital to the
body that constitutes the gratification. This means two things:
flowing back of the excitation to the entire body and relaxation of
the genital apparatus." So,as we see,without any inhibition it is
always possible to receive genital gratification,which is the source
of healthy life for individual and peace and harmony in masses.
Unfortunately,according to Dr. Reich's clinical experiences,"as a
result of universal sexual suppression ,men and women have lost the
ability to experience the ultimate surrender to the involuntary."
"The ocean of lies in this world is deep!"- says the great
scientist. And He shows the difference between the modern society and
the wild Trobriand Society,who live near Papua,the New Guinea. I would
love to bring some quotes by Wilhelm Reich about the Trobriander
Society from the book "The Function Of The Orgasm" to show the
difference: " The sexual life of Trobriander children develops
naturally,freely,and without interference through all stages of life
with full sexual gratification. The children engage in sexual activity
in keeping with their age.In spite of this,or,rather,precisely for
this reason,the Trobriander society,in third decade of this
century,was ignorant of any sexual perversions,functional mental
illnesses,psychoneuroses,sexual murder; they had no word for theft...
The strict,compulsion-neurotic toilet training which saps the
civilization of the white races is unknown to the Trobriander child.
Hence,the Trobriander is spontaneously clean,orderly,naturally
social,intelligent,and industrious. Non-compulsive,voluntary
monogamous marriage, which can be dissolved at any time without
difficulties,prevails as the social form of sexual life. There is no
promiscuity...
To what extent does a population enjoy natural sexuality? – that is
the pivotal question of mental hygiene." - says Wilhelm Reich. As a
result the Trobrianders have achieved high agricultural
development,and the social condition,"that could be like a dream to
every European society… "

Dr Robin Baker, author of "Sperm Wars" argues that the function of the female orgasm is to help alert a woman to a "quality" man (relative to her own "quality"). Even though the female orgasm is not essential to contraception, it substantially increases the probability of it.

I believe there is a misnomer on the subject of orgasm. Orgasm never evolved, it is in every male and female dna (unless of course if nature played a role other than normal)
It is inherent more over it comes with maturity of males and females. Females I believe mature earlier than the males because as per studies of native indigenous peoples around the world children are arranged to be married. However many times the younger male child is unable to pregnate if the female child is of the same age or older. But if the male child is older than the female child then there are more chances of female child getting pregnant.
Getting back to the age old controversy of orgasm I have to state that with maturity comes orgasm. Generally speaking a male gets "horny" several times a day and several times a night (even when he is fast asleep). Females get in "heat" not that often but their orgasm is much stronger when compared to a male orgasm.

I find it interesting that at www.LoveExpos.org they say that orgasms can be used to self heal bodies and expand minds.
Someone has come up with a very interesting way to Self Heal and Expand Consciousness with Love Bursts.
