Please and Thank You

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed,
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead.
I long to see you in the morning light.
I long to reach for you in the night.

While I would never want to lay with Bob Dylan, they’re good words to hear. But let’s not kid ourselves – sex is about two people who are seeking the same end result: an orgasm. Yet, it doesn’t always end that way for everyone. 

I’ll admit it: I’ve faked an orgasm. And I don’t know many girls who haven’t. More recently, however, I’ve started to examine the sexual experience from a man’s perspective. The important question is, does a woman's orgasm matter to a man?
The easiest answer is yes, but it’s always more complicated than a simple yes or no. The conclusion I’ve reached is such – guys have a vested interest in a girl’s orgasm if he genuinely has feelings for them. While this is a broad and sweeping generalization and there are many exceptions. I know some guys who simply get off on the control of being able to get a woman off. Think of it as a satisfaction of a job well done mixed with power struggle. Aside from that, how much do men invest into giving us pleasure?
I have two theories that can explain the perpetual lack of satisfaction. 
Honestly the first one is just logistics. Women’s genitals are vastly more complicated than a man’s. While every “rose” is beautiful, it has to be intimidating to approach uncharted territory every time. Considering that, add to it that the female orgasm is also harder to achieve. As previously discussed, women have two means of achieving an orgasm (vaginal and clitoral). So it would make sense that this undertaking would make more sense after taking the time to get to know the woman individually.
But then again, you have to ask yourself “ask not what he can do for you, but what can you do for yourself?” As far as he knows, what he is doing should do the trick. As a woman, you have to harness and control that orgasm. The same way men can keep themselves from finishing, you can control yourself to expedite the process. My mother always says, the mark of an intelligent woman is one that can make a man do what she wants while making him think it was his idea all along. Be honest. Be constructive. Be sensitive.
In the end, there is nothing better than knowing you accomplished a goal. Some guys make their woman’s orgasm more of a priority than others. When it comes down to it, sex is by no means a spectator sport. The best sex is when both parties try to outdo each other and really please their partner. The bible was right: “Love thy neighbor”, hopefully a few times a night.

The Orgasmic Dichotomy

Orgasms. They’re pretty great. It’s amazing what lengths (no pun intended) people will go to achieve one. The great sundry of internet porn available to the masses indicates just how varied our needs are. At any given moment, a new fetish is being indulged satisfy even the unique orgasm needs.  But how can we ensure we’re getting what we need?

What men, and even most women, don’t realize is that there are two types of orgasms. Yes, women can achieve two very different climaxes: vaginal and clitoral. The best analogy I can think of involves food (of course it does).

Starting with the most basic, vaginal orgasms are similar to chocolate cake. Chocolate cake is delicious. It’s familiar. It makes you feel dreamy inside for a few shining moments. Ending your night with chocolate cake is satisfying and definitely worthwhile.

But not every woman has wandered beyond the boundaries of the vaginal orgasm. The clitoral orgasm is the pinnacle of the female sexual experience. Keeping with the dessert metaphor, a clitoral orgasm is the equivalent of crème brulee served with a bottle of Veuve Cliquot and presented on a stack of $100 bills. I’m really not kidding.

I think it’s important for men and women alike to be aware and to strive for a clitoral orgasm. A guy who knows how to address this is worth his weight in gold. Boys, let me clarify something for you: oral sex is a two way street. And while I realize blow jobs are the male equivalent of flowers, please understand girls enjoy a little oral action too.

Different girls have varying degrees of sensitivity and needs. The most important thing you can do is explore. Trial and error is inevitable, but if both parties make it their prerogative to satisfy each other completely, sex will be more worthwhile and satisfying – both on a physical level and an emotional level. In other words, never underestimate the power of a good orgasm.
