Vaginal Orgasm Is Associated with Vaginal (Not Clitoral) Sex Education, Focusing Mental Attention on Vaginal Sensations, Intercourse Duration, and a Preference for a Longer Penis

Abstract

Introduction Evidence was recently provided for vaginal orgasm, orgasm triggered purely by penile–vaginal intercourse (PVI), being associated with better psychological functioning. Common sex education and sexual medicine approaches might undermine vaginal orgasm benefits. Aims To examine the extent to which women’s vaginal orgasm consistency is associated with (i) being told in childhood or adolescence that the vagina was the important zone for inducing female orgasm; (ii) how well they focus mentally on vaginal sensations during PVI; (iii) greater PVI duration; and (iv) preference for above-average penis length. Methods In a representative sample of the Czech population, 1,000 women reported their vaginal orgasm consistency (from never to almost every time; only 21.9% never had a vaginal orgasm), estimates of their typical foreplay and PVI durations, what they were told in childhood and adolescence was the important zone for inducing female orgasm, their degree of focus on vaginal sensations during PVI, and whether they were more likely to orgasm with a longer than average penis. Main Outcome Measures The association of vaginal orgasm consistency with the predictors noted above. Results Vaginal orgasm consistency was associated with all hypothesized correlates. Multivariate analysis indicated the most important predictors were being educated that the vagina is important for female orgasm, being mentally focused on vaginal sensations during PVI, and in some analyses duration of PVI (but not foreplay) and preferring a longer than average penis. Conclusions Focusing attention on penile–vaginal sensation supports vaginal orgasm and the myriad benefits thereof.

“Standard Operating Procedures for Female Orgasmic Disorder” is not Based on Best Evidence

“…In contrast, in large nationally representative samples, it was observed that the clear majority of women have had vaginal orgasm (orgasm triggered by penile-vaginal intercourse without the need for concurrent clitoral masturbation by either partner) [2][3][4]. In addition, in the nonrepresentative but influential Kinsey data, about 50% of women having intercourse (albeit with no specification of with or without clitoral masturbation) for 1-11 minutes had an orgasm on 90-100% of occasions, increasing to 61.6% in the 12-to 15-minute intercourse group, and 66.7% in the >15-minute intercourse group [5,6].…”

Immature psychological defense mechanisms and the misrepresentations of some sex researchers

“…305-306). However, his (and Laan's) assertions of the majority of women being incapable of reaching orgasm from PVI are at odds with the best available evidence: in two large nationally representative samples (as contrasted with the often very biased samples that have been offered as indications of a high rate of coital anorgasmia) of coitally experienced Czech women, only 22% and 17% never had vaginal orgasm (Brody & Weiss, 2010, 2011b. Similar results were found in an Internet (predominantly British) sample: only 25% never had vaginal orgasm .…”

“…Given that there are myriad demonstrated benefits associated with vaginal orgasm, and that a major predictor of vaginal orgasm is having been educated in one's youth that the vagina (rather than only the clitoris) is a source of female orgasm (Brody & Weiss, 2010), it is incumbent upon sexologists and educators to stop undermining women's health. Hence, sex therapists, researchers and educators should be aware of the more favorable correlates and effects of PVI and vaginal orgasm (relative to other sexual activities and orgasm triggers) and adjust their practice accordingly (Brody, 2006b(Brody, , 2010Brody & Weiss, 2010). However popular and politically correct the gospel of mainstream sexology has been, it is important to prioritize good science and good health over the distortions of ideology (including the denial of vaginal orgasm and the denial of the links between sexual responses and both personality and health).…”

“…Levin's (2012b) claim that cervical-uterine stimulation might be unlikely during PVI because it would require ''[J]ostling by deep penile thrusting causing rubbing on peritoneum'' (p. 307) accompanied by citations of Brody (2010) suggests his misunderstanding as that unlikely process was never proposed by Brody. Furthermore, Levin (2012b) states that the cervical stimulation by penile buffeting is unlikely to create sexual arousal because ''the cervico-uterine elevation that occurs during arousal (Masters & Johnson, 1966) (Maier, 2009), empirical evidence shows that penis size is important for the majority of women (Lever, Frederick, & Peplau, 2006;Shaeer et al, 2012;Stulhofer, 2006) and the women who prefer longer penises tend to have vaginal orgasms more consistently (Brody & Weiss, 2010). A likely explanation is that a longer penis would more easily stimulate the cervix and the proximal vagina.…”

“…It is not only that vaginal orgasm occurs more consistently when the woman is in better psychological or psychophysiological health (Brody, 2007b(Brody, , 2010Brody & Weiss, 2011b;, 2012a, vaginal orgasm also happens more consistently when the male partner has better erections and longer intravaginal ejaculatory latency (Brody & Weiss, 2010), as well as when intimate relationships are more satisfactory (Brody, 2007b;Brody & Weiss, 2011b;Costa & Brody, 2007). Also, women's coital orgasm is more likely when the male partner has characteristics that indicate enhanced fitness, such as greater physical attractiveness, body symmetry and masculinity (Puts,Welling,244 S. Brody et al Burriss, & Dawood, 2012;Shackelford et al, 2000;Thornhill, Gangestad, & Comer, 1995).…”
