Can women experience sexual pleasures?

[narcimund 0]

In another thread, a straight man amusingly lectured that gay men can't get sexual pleasure from anal sex because multiple neurologists and urologists had told him the prostate doesn't have the right kind of nerve endings.*

This reminded me of the old widely-held opinion (among men of course) that women couldn't actually have sexual pleasure or orgasms but were only following their pre-programmed breeding instincts.

Do you think that's true or not?

If so, why do women keep saying they're having a good time?

And if not, what do you think motivates men to keep coming up with such stories?

* (One might wonder why a straight man is surveying multiple medical specialists about the pleasures of anal sex, but that's a different question.)

Having sexual pleasure and orgasms is a major part of our pre-programmed breeding instincts.

The biggest sex organ is the brain. The "right kind" of nerve ending has much less to do with anything.

Back in the day, the reason many women gave their daughters on the eve of their weddings was "It is the price we pay to have children."

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure there are certain cultures in which sexual pleasure for women has always been accepted. Jewish husbands were admonished to please their wives, but I'll be damned if I even know where to begin to look for that reference.

As for me, if I were stuck with the kind of guy who thinks it's entirely a matter of nerve endings, I would not be having a good time.

And other cultures that are STILL performing genital mutilation of women in the name of making them better wives.

http://www.irinnews.org/webspecials/FGM/default.asp

Among communities that practise FGM, the procedure is a highly valued ritual, whose purpose is to mark the transition from childhood to womanhood. In these traditional societies, FGM represents part of the rites of passage or initiation ceremonies intended to impart the skills and information a woman will need to fulfil her duties as a wife and mother.

The function of this practice, whether mild or severe, is ultimately to reduce a woman's sexual desire, and so ensure her virginity until marriage. The more extensive procedure, involving stitching of the vagina, has the same aim, but reducing the size of the vagina is also intended to increase the husband's enjoyment of the sexual act.

Discussions, conducted for the purposes of this report, with women who have undergone the procedure, revealed that penetration was almost always difficult and painful, even for the man, when women had undergone the more extreme forms of FGM.

Certain communities carry out FGM for religious reasons, believing that their faith requires it; this is particularly true of Muslims who adhere to the practice. Other communities consider female genitalia to be ugly, offensive or dirty, and thus the removal of the external genitalia makes a woman more hygienic and aesthetically pleasing. Some subscribe to the notion that FGM enhances a woman's fertility, and the chances of her children's survival.

Any hooker worth her keep knows the way to a straight John's heart is to finger his prostate while giving him a blowjob. Maybe that's what this doctor's been missing all his life, that and a few other things, like a good swift kick in the ass (which I suppose some guys would also find pleasurable).

I remember Dan Akroid doing a bit on the original SNL. I think it was a “Point Counterpoint” skit with “Jane”. Dan said something like, “Women’s orgasms? They’re a myth! I’ve never been with a woman that had one!”

And if not, what do you think motivates men course) that women can't actually have they're have the prostate doesn't having they're have sex because multiple neurologists and urologists and urologists had told widely-held opinion among men couldn't have sexual pleasure or orgasms but were only following instincts

Do you think motivates men keep saying a good time

This reminded me of nerve ending instincts

And why does Mrs. Blutarsky keep pestering The Senator in the middle of the night for more “attention” when they both have a big day ahead of them and he at least needs to sleep? Science had better produce an answer quickly or else I’m going to begin seriously scrutinizing all that money we’ve been directing to NSF and others.

Did you do this manually or is there an auto-scrambler in this forum software I don't know about?

I notice that five people have voted that only men experience sexual pleasure. Hyuck, hyuck.

But there may be a kernel of truth in that.

Some years ago, Dear Abby did a poll of women: "Would you rather have sex or cuddle?" Overwhelmingly, the women who answered the poll wanted to cuddle.

If I recall correctly, this wasn't that many years after the Hite Report (70s) told us that only one in three women experience orgasm through intercourse alone. And it was a time when oral sex still wasn't talked about all that much, although I believe that some men perceived their divine right to fellatio, even if cunnilingus never occurred to them. Further, I had a black male friend tell me that black guys don't go down on women (this, at least, I have a date for: 1977), but I believe that has changed in the intervening years.

We now have evidence that insists women have more powerful orgasms than men. And women talk about sex--a lot--and seem to be having more interesting sexual experiences than in the past. But I have run into a lot of guys who still think that if a woman doesn't have an orgasm before they do, there's nothing they can do about it.

So even though women can experience sexual pleasure, maybe some of them aren't just because the men in their lives are unimaginative.

Just a thought.

I hear that they used George W. Bush's speeches as a model for the algorithm.
