Intimate act enjoyed by one-quarter of couples reportedly boosts male orgasms more frequently than female ones, according to newly-released scientific findings.
Let's chat about a flavorsome topic that might make some folks squirm a bit - yup, you guessed it, we're diving into anal sex! This topic might seem a bit extreme or niche to some, but it's actually more common than you'd think.
Now, here's a juicy twist: a fresh study published in Sexual Medicine indicates that it's more likely for men than women to have an orgasm from receiving anal sex. Scientists surveyed 1,000 lovers and found men were significantly more likely to report climaxing from anal sex alone, in comparison to women. Women, on the other hand, were twice as likely as men to say they'd never had an orgasm through anal sex, even when other stimulation was involved[1].
The study suggested that female respondents typically required stimulation elsewhere on the body, such as the clitoris, to reach climax during anal sex[1]. For both male and female participants, the area nearest to the rectal opening was the most frequently reported source of pleasure[1].
Researchers found that this area corresponds to the prostate gland, which is nestled inside the body, between the base of the penis and the rectum. This sensitive little guy plays a crucial role in men's sexual pleasure, pointing to why they enjoy anal sex more than women[1].
The exact reasons behind these findings are still up for debate. Some scientists believe it's due to the stimulation of the prostate, which can activate nerves connected to the gland. Others propose the pudendal nerve, one of the main nerves in the pelvis responsible for sensation in the pelvic region[1].
ladies and gentlemen, let's not forget that our cognitiveprocessors are the real kings of the castle when it comes to sexual pleasure. The study also emphasized the significant impact of the brain on the experience of orgasm, including factors such as self-confidence, desire, and sexual experience[1].
Curious about the participants? They were all legal adults, aged 18 or older, and claimed to have participated in prior sexual activities. They identified themselves as either heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, or asexual[1].
Now, if you're thinking, "That's great, but what about the lower frequency of adult get-togethers nowadays?" You're not alone, friend! In fact, research shows there's a global decline in sexual activity, with some people admitting they've had no sexual activity at all in the past year[1].
And let's face it, a decrease in sexual activity can have some pretty crappy consequences on overall health and mental well-being[1]. So while we can't guarantee you'll find endless pleasure from awkward positions and secret passages, we do recommend keeping that intimacy going, kiddos!
- In the realm of health and wellness, it's crucial to note that maintaining regular sexual activity can have numerous benefits for both physical and mental health.
- A study published in 'Sexual Medicine' highlighted the significance of mental factors, such as self-confidence, desire, and sexual experience, in the experience of orgasm.
- Moreover, the study underscored the importance of fitness and exercise in sexual health, with the area nearest to the rectal opening being the most frequently reported source of pleasure for both males and females.
