Female Orgasm Myths<\/h2>\n\n\n

Before we dive into all of the juicy tips, it’s important to clarify a few key myths and misconceptions about female orgasms.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s All About Vaginal Stimulation and Intercourse\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n

One of the biggest misconceptions is that every person with a vulva should be able to have a vaginal orgasm. But according to sexologist and sensual yoga teacher Joy Berkheimer, PhD<\/a>, only about 30 percent of women orgasm from vaginal penetration alone.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cLength Always Matters\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n

Carol Queen, PhD<\/a>, Good Vibes staff sexologist and sex-positive educator and activist, wants to put this misconception to rest<\/a> whether the length in question involves penis size, or the duration of intercourse. \u201cNeither of these is remotely [necessary] for everyone or even for most,\u201d she clarifies\u2014but they\u2019re not exactly myths. Instead, they\u2019re simply not the norm or hard-and-fast rules. \u201cIn fact, for those who’d agree that size matters, some would cite \u2018too big\u2019 as a problem, not a preference,\u201d she continues. Plus, \u201cDuration of intercourse won’t get you to orgasm if you’re not already aroused enough, and many women just don’t get turned on enough to come that way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Of course, things will ultimately hinge upon personal preference. Some people will naturally enjoy large (and\/or wide) penises and toys, and others may certainly prefer a sex marathon over a quickie.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cWomen Will Always Get Wet When They\u2019re Aroused\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n

\u201cIt is a huge misconception that women will always be wet if they’re turned on, and that one’s own vaginal lubrication will be sufficient,\u201d Dr. Queen shares. This isn\u2019t always the case, so she advises using lube<\/a> as needed to promote comfort and pleasure alike.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cSex Toys Ruin Partner Play\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n

Another female orgasm myth is that you won\u2019t be able to achieve climax during sex if you rely on toys to get your rocks off. However, sex toys<\/a> aren\u2019t the problem\u2014but a lack of arousal and sensation during intercourse very well can be. \u201cMany who only come with toys don’t have orgasmic sex with partners because they aren’t getting the stimulation they need to orgasm during partner sex,\u201d Dr. Queen explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clitoral Orgasm<\/h2>\n\n\n

For a majority of women, clitoral stimulation is crucial to achieve orgasm. \u201cThe clitoris functions in an arousal context just like the penis,\u201d says Dr. Queen. In fact, they derive from the same tissue. To underscore its importance, she makes the analogy that it would be challenging for those with penises to achieve orgasm without direct and active contact during sex.<\/p>\n\n\n

Fortunately, Dr. Queen has a wealth of knowledge on achieving more intense orgasms through manual clitoral stimulation. Some of her top toe-curling tips include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
