The Orgasm Gap Between Man and Woman

The orgasm gap was coined to describe the disparity in orgasms between couples.

Also known as orgasm inequality, studies have used it to measure sexual satisfaction among different demographics. A good and healthy sex life can’t be measured purely by how many orgasms people have.

(Here is my behind the paywall link.)

The International Academy of Sex Research conducted a more rigorous study in 2017 and found that 95% of heterosexual men said they usually or always orgasmed when sexually intimate, followed by 89% of gay men, 88% of bisexual men, 86% of lesbian women, 66% of bisexual women and 65% of straight women.

If orgasm parity between genders and sexualities was your goal, you might say women should have sex with women and straight men should stop lying; then, everyone would end up climaxing about 90% of the time.

That kind of response is nonsense.

A big reason for the orgasm gap between men and women is communication failures and the ability to meet each other’s needs.

It is currently unpopular to say men and women are different, but the truth is that we are not just physically but emotionally indifferent to needs and requirements.

Another massive factor is attitudes toward sexuality and sexual health. Nations with the Abraham religions and traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam don’t talk about sex healthily and constructively.
