A lot of times during intercourse (ugh, what a terrible word), women get the short end of the stick (no pun intended). It’s usually much more difficult for them to finish, and there’s a large percentage of the male population that doesn’t understand that you can’t just, well, STICK IT IN. Foreplay is a necessity, and yet still there are dudes who think thrusting away will eventually get a chick to orgasm. Not the case, guys. Not the case.

On the other hand, it turns out da ladeez may be able to have TWO types of orgasms (on top of not having a refractory period, so SUCK ON THAT), according to a new study by researchers Odile Buisson and Emmanuele A Jannini. Via The Daily Mail:

During the tests, researchers Odile Buisson and Emmanuele A Jannini connected three women to sonography machines.

These machines were used to visualise the movements of the clitorourethrovaginal (CUV) complex – the system of clitoral nerves – during both external, direct stimulation of the clitoris, and vaginal stimulation.

The research revealed external clitoral stimulation does not involve the internal root of the clitoris, but, vaginal stimulation does involve both the root and the external clitoris – suggesting the two-orgasm theory may be true.

Sure, this research doesn’t mention that sometimes it takes 45 minutes to get to that second type of Big O, but hey, one step at a time, right?

This weekend, make those two types of orgasms count! If you’re a lady – tell your guy what makes your toes curl, and if you’re a gentleman, well… ASK. You know you’re gonna get there, why not help a lady reach the finish line too?

Happy weekending!
