Physical Signs Indicating Climax
2007-11-26 04:49:00
When one reaches orgasm, one usually has gasping uncontrolled movements, or a sense of suspension which are nonverbal communications to the partner that one has had an orgasm. It is usually accompanied by vaginal contractions in female and the visible associate of ejaculation in males. Later, after completion of the sex act, one appears calm and physically satisfied. The signs of having had an orgasm are quite fleeting. The best way is to ask the partner.Is it normal to reach orgasm by clitoral stimulation?Absolutely. There are women who are unable to reach climax by vaginal intercourse alone. Climaxing by clitoral stimulation is in no way inferior.Are different erogenous zones important?Yes. One need not reach orgasm by genital stimulation alone. One may stimulate any erogenous zone to the point of orgasm.’What is important is the end and not the means to the end’.

How to Reach Orgasm
2007-11-21 12:55:00
When an individual has sexual desire he departs from the normal state and enters into the ‘sexual state’ and is deemed to have undergone ‘sexual grounding’. ‘Sexual grounding’ or the ‘Sexual state’ is a state in which the subject becomes receptive to the perception of stimuli inputs as sexual. Once this occurs, psycho-biological stimuli arouse the sex centre in the brain which starts sending out impulses, which are usually pleasurable. When such impulses reach the genitalia they lead to congestion of blood which is usually manifested as erection in the male and lubrication in the female. Further stimuli further arouse the individual and eventually lead to orgasm.

Classify Orgasmic Dysfunctions
2007-11-16 11:04:00
Here we classify orgasmic dysfunctions, on the basis of one single central parameter - the subjectively reported orgasmic experience, into four broad categories. They represent the discrepancy between one’s idealized expectation and one’s actual experience.Early Orgasmic Response - (EOR): This category includes cases in which orgasm is experienced earlier than one’s idealized expectations, which are within rational limits. Delayed Orgasmic Response - (DOR): This category includes cases in which orgasm does ultimately occur, but is delayed beyond one’s idealized expectations, which are within rational limits. Impaired Orgasmic Response - (IOR): This category includes cases in which there is a reduction in the intensity of orgasmic pleasure. Absent Orgasmic Response - (AOR): This category includes cases in which there is a complete failure to experience orgasmic pleasure. This classification, based on one central subjective parameter provides conceptual clarity, specific termi...

Orgasm Introduction and its Reason
2007-10-17 01:00:00
Orgasm represents the zenith of human pleasurable experiences. ‘Orgasm’ is derived from the Greek word ‘orgaos’ which means ‘to swell, with lust. This literal translation very appropriately encompasses the true essence of orgasm.Orgasm is defined as, ‘an explosive cerebrally encoded neuromuscular response, at the peak of ‘sexual arousal by psycho biological stimuli, the pleasurable sensations of which are experienced in association with dispensable pelvic physiological concomitants’.Sex is not merely the means to an end (procreation). It is both, the means to an end, as well as an end in itself (pleasure). Nature, with its natural masterstroke, of providing an inherently sensual pleasure oriented side to our personality, has ingeniously accomplished this dual objective (pleasure + procreation). An attempt to rationalize the philosophy of sex undisputedly establishes the fact that humans indulge in sex to gratify their inherent pleasure instinct. One indulges in sexua...

Old Age Sex Problems
2007-09-20 06:37:00
What are the common sexual misconceptions prevalent among the middle aged men and women?Men harbour the misconception that increasing age and excessive use may lead to weakening of the genitals and end in ‘seminal bankruptcy’. Because of this misguided belief, they observe sexual abstinence. One should remember that it is disuse which leads to atrophy and not the use. As a man grows older, he walks slow, he talks slow but he expects that his erection should not be slow! One needs to remember that this is a normal phenomenon. Impression that “one failure in making it means an end to sex life”. As a result, many men move from effective sexual functioning to various degrees of impotence. I always emphasize that occasional failures are common and failure does not mean an end. Women harbour the misconception that menopause marks the end of sex life. Menopause merely marks the end of a woman’s reproductive career and not the conjugal career which can continue upto the end of one...

Lax Vagina and Pregnancy
2007-06-26 10:21:00
After pregnancy, many times couples report that they don’t experience the pleasure that they used to.

Female Misunderstanding about Men Sexuality
2007-06-24 08:46:00
What are women’s misunderstandings about men’s sexuality that many lead to sexual dysfunctions?Often when a man is a premature ejaculator, many women may consider him a poor lover or the woman may make an attempt to reach orgasm early also. At times, this leads to a shortening of periods of intimacy. In cases of retarded ejaculation, where there is a delay in reaching orgasm, the woman starts getting a feeling that her partner does not love her or she is not attractive to him any more which may disturb the intimate relationship. Also most women consider it improper to actively participate in intercourse and prefer to remain completely passive or only minimally responsive leaving the onus on the male who is now under pressure to perform. This may create a situational anxiety that may impair his response and performance. Even if the male is able to perform properly in these circumstances, the minimal or deliberately subdued response of his partner due to traditional misconceptions...

Female Breast Size and Stimulation

Do women like breast stimulation?Most women enjoy stimulation of the breasts as they form an important erogenous zone of the female anatomy.
