I have been married to one partner for over twenty-sex years, and it’s been very satisfying. I have only one wish: for vaginal orgasm during intercourse – I would like to experience this. (Shere Hite)
Many women believe that orgasm from intercourse is attainable due to societal expectations, cultural narratives, and the representation of sexual experiences in the media. These sources frequently prioritize vaginal orgasms as the norm or ideal, which can foster the perception that it is a universal experience for women. However, sexual satisfaction can vary significantly between individuals, and many women are more likely to achieve orgasm through clitoral stimulation than through vaginal intercourse alone. It is essential to recognize that sexual pleasure is diverse, and the most crucial aspect is identifying the most effective approach for oneself and one's partner.
Women are clearly talking about emotional rewards with a lover. Rosemary Basson drew this conclusion in 2000 just as Shere Hite did in 1976. But it is a highly unpopular fact given the money to be made out of suggesting that women respond sexually with a lover. Women are told that they should orgasm especially from intercourse and so naturally some of them believe that it is possible. But I have not found one single woman who can explain logically how it occurs. They talk of lovemaking rather than erotic turn-ons.
