Here are three facts that you almost certainly weren't told by your mother. But knowing them could help you to a more enjoyable sex life.
Yet our research shows that the average British female
doesn't start having reliable orgasms until two years after she first has sex
with a man!
There are many women who don't conform to this pattern: for
instance, a lot of teenage girls learn to climax on their own - through
masturbation - long before they ever go near a guy. But in general, the ability
to 'come' has to be learned over a considerable period of time.
So if you haven't managed it yet, don't be downhearted as you
almost certainly will get there.
Fact Two
Back in your mum's day, sex was still quite a taboo subject
and talking about orgasms was even more taboo.
And far into the 1970s and 1980s, it was widely suggested that
for a 'lady' to want orgasms wasn't really quite 'nice'. And for her to want
multiple orgasms was absolutely outrageous! Furthermore, many so-called
'experts' suggested that multiple orgasms were almost impossible for most
females.
However, we now know that:
I'm not saying that you can achieve all this overnight but, if
you stimulate your own clitoris for long enough over a period of time, you can
eventually achieve as many orgasms as you like. Clearly you can also have
multiple orgasms if you have a partner - male or female - who is devoted to
giving you pleasure.
Fact Three
Indeed, sex experts now agree that masturbation can be
enormously useful in helping a woman:
So don't hesitate to go for it.
Practically any woman should be able to have orgasms - and
indeed multiple orgasms - if she really wants to.
There is nothing wrong with 'do it yourself sex'.
