New Study Highlights Orgasm Gap and Partner Gender Expectations

Research indicates women have higher orgasm expectations with female partners, shedding light on the 'orgasm gap' between men and women.

  • The 'orgasm gap' refers to the disparity in orgasm frequency between heterosexual men and women, with men more likely to achieve orgasm.
  • New research shows that women expect more clitoral stimulation and are more likely to pursue orgasm when with a female partner.
  • Bisexual women reported higher orgasm expectations with female partners compared to male partners.
  • The study suggests changing sexual scripts and encouraging diverse sex acts, especially those involving clitoral stimulation, to address the orgasm gap.
  • Sexual satisfaction involves more than achieving orgasm, emphasizing the importance of diverse and inclusive sexual education.
