The Eight Magical Female Orgasms

edited by Irish Eyes

As you all know, I love to find out more about sex!! Here is a great article (well, actually part of a longer article) on Female Orgasms. Let's try for all of them!!


There are many women out there that have never had an orgasm with anything or anyone other than masturbation. They wait for their partner to leave and then "get off," because they could not during sex. The old saying "There are no frigid women, only clumsy men," is, in my opinion, a poor statement. It is ALWAYS the responsibility of both partners to communicate openly about their needs and to provide directives to their partner to aid the sexual evolvement in any relationship. Don't let this type of behavior go on, take a risk, grow, and communicate your sexual needs.


1. The Clitoral Orgasm


This orgasm occurs at the peak of clitoral stimulation. It begins with an intense sexual excitement within the clitoris and, as the orgasm peaks, it sends a surge of pleasure throughout the body. Only several years ago, did Masters & Johnson dispel the myth that this was the only kind of orgasm that women could have, when they showed proof of the G-spot orgasm.


The clitoris is the most sexually sensitive part of a woman's body and sexual arousal is always felt on some level in the clitoris no matter where the orgasm takes place. It is usually the case that sexual arousal first originates in the clit, and is considered an orgasmic starting point.


What Is The Clitoris And Where Is It?


It is located below the mons veneris on the anterior portion of the vulva, or as my husband likes to call it... "The little man in the boat"). The inner vaginal lips, also called the labia minora when closed, tend to hide the clit, but it is interesting to note that those inner vaginal lips are attached to the underside of the clitoris and thus play an important role in the network of nerves, which transmit sexual stimulation.


The clitoral hood is formed by the connection of the inner vaginal lips. This small hood covers the clitoris in much the same manner as a foreskin covers a penis. When you pull the hood back you can see that the clit is USUALLY about the size of a pencil eraser, however the size does vary from woman to woman, much the same way penis size varies from man to man. The clitoris is abundantly supplied with nerves, and the part of the clitoris that you see is actually much like the head of a man's penis, and, as a man has a shaft to his penis, a woman has a shaft to her clitoris. The shaft is located above the hood, and is more easily felt when a woman is aroused as it become more rigid as it fills with blood. (A clitoral "hard-on" of sorts).


What Does It Feel Like?


Clitoral orgasms can be very intense, but may not be as "deep" as others. These orgasms are no doubt very, very pleasurable and helpful in achieving female ejaculation. Stimulating the clitoris can be a very good place to start when trying to achieve female ejaculation, after providing stimulation to the G-spot.


A Reminder-


Remember that after an orgasm the clit may retract, and becomes even more sensitive to further stimulation; often to the point of being painful.


2. The Vaginal/ Cervical Orgasm


This orgasm may begin in the vagina and/or cervix, and expand from there, or it can remain focused the entire time in those areas. This orgasm is demonstrated when the uterus does not elevate and the vagina remains snug. During the heightening of excitement, the vaginal opening becomes more lax and then bears down upon the arrival of an orgasm. The pelvic muscles and uterus, as well as the anus may begin to contract as well. At the peak of the orgasm, anything inside the vagina being used for stimulation may be forced out by the strength of the contractions.


Because the vaginal/cervical orgasm involves the cervix, which is located further up inside the vagina, a long object inserted into the vagina that will reach the cervix may be more successful in reaching this type of orgasm. It is interesting to note that during this orgasm there is evidence that the mouth of the cervix will actually widen to admit the head of the penis, and create a suction generated by uterine contractions for the uterus to take in semen.


Vaginal vs. Clitoral Orgasm-


The pleasure derived from a clitoral orgasm versus a vaginal orgasm will vary from woman to woman as the sensitivity of the vaginal walls and clitoris varies. Clitoral orgasms are usually more intense on a surface level and vaginal orgasms, while sometimes "less intense" on the surface, and are usually more deeply felt. Again, this will vary from woman to woman.


What Does It Feel Like?


This orgasm usually takes longer to build, and is best achieved with rhythmic thrusting. Even more helpful is thrusting after being clitorally stimulated. Many women describe it as a pressure that grows and then explodes deep with in the vagina, quickly spreading intense, euphoric energy throughout the entire body. This orgasm can release more of an emotional response as it provides women with a sense of being penetrated more than just physically, but also in an emotionally vulnerable sense.


3. The Breast Orgasm


The breast orgasm occurs during a peak of stimulation to the breasts. Because breast stimulation often occurs earlier in a woman's life than vaginal contact, many women become acquainted with this type of orgasm at a younger age than with other types of orgasms.


The nipples connect to the feminine genital nervous system, and many women feel a direct connection with their clitoris when their nipples are being stimulated. It is during this type of orgasm that many women feel uterine contractions that are not as noted during a clitoral orgasm. Most women feel sexual excitement from having their nipples stimulated, however not all have a direct association with their genitals, as this depends on nipple sensitivity.


What Does It Feel Like?


Most women indicate that the orgasm brought about from breast stimulation is full, slow in building, and often very strong. Women who have pierced nipples have indicated that if the piercing has not damaged or interfered with the nerve endings in the nipples, that these types of orgasms are quite easily achieved and with great intensity.


4. The Oral Orgasm


This orgasm, while ignored by many researchers does exist. Usually this orgasm occurs in women who are more orally sensitive. Because the mouth is a primary human sensory organ, and is the main source of nurturing and pleasure during our early formative years, it plays a very important role in the sexual nervous system.


The mouth orgasm can occur during any sensual oral activity, from kissing, licking, sucking, to oral sex. The particular activity that will induce an oral orgasm is more dependent on the individual's psychological attraction to certain sexual activities, as well as the areas of the mouth that feel most sexually stimulated. This can be on the lips, the tongue, on the roof of the mouth, and in the throat, or a combination of oral contacts.


What Does It Feel Like?


Most women have indicated that the sexual stimulation begins in the lips and can spread from the mouth to the genitals, and even the whole body. The intensity and sensations of this orgasm varies from person to person, although many women indicate that there is a tingling, erotic feeling, which builds in the roof of the mouth.


Myths of Oral Orgasms


It was once thought that women who experienced oral orgasms were simply experiencing them because they were consciously, or unconsciously, rubbing their legs together, thus stimulating their genitals and inducing an orgasm. This argument holds little validity when many women have reported that their legs were separated leading up to and during the oral orgasm.


5. The G-spot Orgasm


This orgasm may begin at the G-spot and stay focused there throughout the building and final release of the orgasm, or may expand throughout the body. This orgasm is demonstrated when the G-spot is stimulated and becomes "puffy" and swollen as the tissue surrounding the female Paraurethral / Skenes glands fill with blood during sexual arousal. This results in the tissue becoming firm to the touch.


What Does It Feel Like?


Like the vaginal orgasm, this usually takes longer to build. Because the G-spot is not stimulated as much by friction as much as pressure, using a rhythmic pushing against the G-spot is more pleasurable than light rubbing. As discussed earlier, the stimulation of the G-spot increases the fluid build up in the Paraurethral / Skenes glands and thus easily enhances female ejaculation. This is why many researchers made the error of assuming that this is the only orgasm that will evoke female ejaculation.


Most women describe this type of orgasm as an intense, deeply sensual pressure that builds until it feels like the entire vaginal explodes with ecstasy (often including cum) and usually followed by euphoric energy that spreads throughout the entire body.


This orgasm, like the vaginal orgasm can release more of an emotional response as it provides women with a sense of being penetrated more than just physically, but in a more vulnerable sense.


6. The Anal Orgasm


This orgasm originates in the anus and is usually induced by rhythmic insertion of an object (vibrator, finger, or penis) into the anus. Because women do not have a prostate it was thought that they would not enjoy anal sex as much as a man would, however, the Paraurethral / Skenes glands are stimulated through the pressure to the upper vaginal wall during this sexual activity. Therefore, the nerve endings provide a pleasurable sensation to the rectal and anal tissue.


What Does It Feel Like?


Most women have described the anal orgasm as feeling like a building of sensual pleasure from the nerve endings in the anus, and creating an erotic sensation in the vagina, G-spot, and/or clitoris. The simultaneous stimulation of the anus merges with the heightening arousal in the female's genitals and creates a deep and powerful orgasm that may even spread throughout the entire body.


7. The Mental Orgasm


This orgasm can be brought about by visual and auditory environmental stimulation (i.e.: sexual behavior exhibited in front of the individual via in-person, movies, or other). Women can become so turned on by this type of stimulation that they actually climax from the sheer excitement they are experiencing in the mind. It has been long said that desire is in the mind and this type of orgasm is quite a good example of that. Those skilled in such methods as meditation and deep mind focus are generally more skilled at achieving this type of orgasm.


What Does It Feel Like?


The sensation of this orgasm will vary from person to person, however most women indicate that this kind of orgasm is felt in the genitals, primarily the clitoris and G-spot, and thus produce a similar feeling to those types of orgasms.


8. The Whole Body Orgasm


This orgasm can be brought about by stimulation to any body part including the mind. In fact, many eastern cultures have long practiced whole body orgasms through techniques varying from Kama Sutra positions to meditation. It is most often achieved with overcoming inhibitions and completely surrendering oneself into the sexual experience. A technique that is found helpful to reaching this type of orgasm is using the breath as a tool. Breathing in short, sexually-heightened breaths creates a sense of euphoria and allows for the body to experience increased sensitivity.


Important to note~


Obviously when using breath techniques as mentioned above, one should take care not to hyper ventilate or do anything that would cause one to not be able to breathe, potentially causing brain damage or even death.


What Does It Feel Like?


It is felt in waves throughout the entire body and a rush of vibrations tingle within and throughout the body. Many describe feeling almost transported to a spiritual place in which they experience pure bliss.


So, who knew all that?? I don't know if I knew all the details, but I think I've had all of them. Kisses!! Irish --
