What is an Orgasm?
| Enough stimulation
of or around a woman's clitoris
causes pelvic fullness and body tension to build up. (Some women also
respond to stimulation of their G-spot.)
Orgasm is the point at which all the tension is suddenly released in a
series of involuntary and pleasurable muscular contractions. Women feel
the contractions in their vagina, uterus and/or rectum, although some
women describe orgasms without any contractions at all. |

Women have
compared their orgasms to a mild hiccup, a sneeze, or a sigh. They've also
been described in terms of ocean waves, and with adjectives such as
sensuous, intense, and ecstatic. Of course, each orgasm depends on the
particular woman at the particular time. The same woman can experience
many different types of climax. For instance, orgasm can feel different
with a finger, penis, dildo or vibrator in the vagina, and different when
a woman masturbates than when she's having partner sex.
There are
many variations of a woman's orgasm, and a wide range of accompanying
feelings. What works, what feels good, and what is satisfying for a woman
at any given moment is what counts.
