Vaginal Orgasm Is A Myth, Say Italian Researchers
A research published in the journal Clinical Anatomy claimed there is no such thing as vaginal or clitoral orgasm. Researchers said the right term to use is "female orgasms" for females as men have "male orgasms."
According to the Daily Mail, the authors of the study said that during penetrative sex, most women did not have orgasms. This usually resulted in women being labelled as having sexual problems when, in reality, vaginal orgasms don't exist.
The study found the clitoris, often referred to as the female penis as it is made of the same material as the male penis, is the key for pleasure in women. It also found that when female erectile organs like the clitoris, vestibular bulbs and pars intermedia, which is a band that connects the vestibular bulbs, are stimulated, women experience an orgasm.
Dr Vincenzo Puppo, a sexologist and co-author of the study, said that for women, male ejaculation does not mark the end of sex. He adds that for women to experience orgasm after it, non-coital sexual acts, like touching and kissing, can be continued.
The research was undertaken after a study that was published by U.S. researchers in early 2014 found that the size of the clitoris had an impact on female orgasm. The study had found that usually when the women had orgasm issues, they had a smaller clitoris and it was located farther away from the vagina. When there is a smaller distance between the clitoris and vagina, it leads to stimulation during intercourse.
The findings of the study suggest those suffering from anorgasmia, the inability to have orgasms, could benefit from it as this could lead to new treatments. Thirty women, with an average age of 32 years, were scanned with the help of magnetic resonance imaging. It was found that 10 of the women could experience orgasms or rarely experienced it. The other 20 experienced orgasms.
The findings also found that women do not ejaculate. The G-spot, G for "Grafenberg" should be renamed F-spot , which stands for fantasy spot, opines Sarah Berry of the Sydney Morning Herald. The findings of the study was published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
