Straight women aren't getting their fair share of orgasms

[TexasTowelie]

Straight women are less likely to have an orgasm during sexual intimacy than any other group — including straight men, gay men, lesbians, bisexual men and bisexual women — according to a new study whose title could be "Duh."

The orgasm gap is well-documented ("replicates a wide body of existing literature," is the research-speak) but remains ripe for exploration, given that it hasn't yet closed.

In the latest study, "Differences in Orgasm Frequency Among Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Heterosexual Men and Women in a U.S. National Sample," researchers from Chapman University, Indiana University and the Kinsey Institute examined the sexual behaviors of more than 52,000 American adults to determine who's having the most orgasms and why. The findings are published in the upcoming issue of Archives of Sexual Behavior.

"There's been a lot of research on orgasm frequency, but there isn't very much data that includes how both gender and sexual orientation relate to orgasm frequency," lead author David A. Frederick, assistant professor of psychology at Chapman University, told me.

4. He will ask Bannon, "what is a female orgasm?, I thought that was an urban legend."

[randome]

6. Like Bannon would know.

24. Eww

you know how when people have sex, they leave a pile of rumpled clothes on the floor?

He looks like that pile of rumpled clothes.

46. Bwa-ha-ha! Good one! And all too true!

I'm a believer in "The only stupid question is the one not asked."

[NCTraveler]

34. All I wanted to deliver was the hug.

The first period comes after all post numbers. The second is because you have to have something in the subject line.

[LAS14]

37. Thanks much.

7. Evidently straight women have no choice but to take the matter into their own hands....

Seriously, I don't doubt this for a second.

12. It's all the men's fault.

At least the Republican men. Republicans don't care.

Real Men™ say, "No, you go first..."

[TexasTowelie]

13. Yes,

that is reason.

[calendargirl]

14. I beg to differ.

In my experience, you can't judge a lover by his political affiliation. Just saying--

[MineralMan]

15. Ah, OK...

[FSogol]

21. Selfish people don't make selfish lovers?

[Tanuki]

16. Maybe this report is the secret meaning behind that controversial "Real men provide,

Real women appreciate" billboard mentioned in another thread!

[MineralMan]

17. Nicely done!

[uponit7771]

18. REALLY Good data in the article

[FSogol]

20. I'm doing my part!

[Lurks Often]

22. Ladies come first and second and third.......

[alarimer]

29. They're dating or married to Republicans/Conservatives/libertarians

By far the most selfish men in the US that I ever met were those. Unwilling to do what it takes, if you know what it means. It is reflective of the conservative mindset, the unwillingness to try new things or to be in an equitable relationship.

Liberals by and large are better, if not always perfect. Most of the time, from my small sample size, they are at least willing to try.

30. I have little sympathy for women who regularly choose to date/marry sexists or other regressives

This reminds me of my old friends years ago who used to complain that the women they dated were crazy. They failed to realize that it was mostly their own fault -- i.e. they chose women mostly for their looks and not for their emotional stability or maturity.

[Docreed2003]

35. Sad...

This straight dude ensures his wife has her needs met EVERY TIME before his. She would be appalled with me saying this but her quote was "OMG...I never knew I would enjoy oral sex so much..." when we first were dating. All I can say is "Happy wife...happy life"

[tavernier]

45. The initial stimulation happens in the brain.

Any additional pleasurable activity involving other body parts is highly desirable, but not always necessary.

In other words, one should be responsible for one's own orgasms. Having a playful partner is just an added bonus.

[DiverDave]

47. Um, yeah

Not anyone I've been with...
In all humbleness
