Sorry, guys. It’s not as easy as you’d like to think. Getting a woman to that special place may take a bit more finesse than you’re capable of. What’s that? Your girl doesn’t fake it? Well, then I guess she is one of the 50% that can orgasm regularly. That’s right. Only 50% of women orgasm regularly. Shocking, I know. And if that figure doesn’t surprise you, consider this: 10-15% of women have never achieved an orgasm, ever. Hell, only 70% of women know where their clitoris is! (So, maybe it’s not all our fault).
The female orgasm has always been a challenge, a mystery, and the subject of intense debate. Which is why our own sketch comedy show, “Midwest Teen Sex Show” took a look at the topic in its episode “The Big O”. (That’s right, we have a series called “Midwest Teen Sex Show” … yeah, you can thank us later).
It takes a real man to understand that he has things to learn. And whether or not you are experienced in the ways of coital bliss it certainly won’t hurt to learn a bit more. Which is why we went ahead and compiled a bit of research on the topic. Take a look at our infographic on the female orgasm, embedded below for your viewing and learning pleasure.

Greetings-
After reading your survey,I have to say that it would seem that you believe that orgasm is for the most part, “the responsibility of the man”. This does not figure in the “chaos factor” of how a women’s mind/body may in fact, be completely out of harmony with itself and has little to do with the man “abilities”. If a man is so damaged by his past or doesn’t have an inner connection to his “ability to perform”, he cannot blame that on the woman. Likewise, a women must take responsibility for her own internal separations and not expect a man to do more than he can for her. Psychological damage to the female psyche is as common as the daily fears we live with or by and come from traumas, social compliance to “empty-headed, ‘Sex in the City’ mentalities” and the expectation that it’s a man’s job to give you an orgasm. When you have healed from your past and social programing, then it is easy to meet you at the half-way point; I do my part and you in your open-ness naturally receive. When a woman’s aggressive nature dominates her receptivity, she will also not “receive well” and her receptive feminine nature is now “more like a man’s naturally assertive nature; she is too male or too yang. A woman’s power is in her femininity, when I watched your video, that doesn’t really come through- only the aggressive, more out of balance aspect of the male is noticed….just some thoughts….
Well put Michael Vasquez! With 30% of women unaware of their clitoral location, it seems unreasonable to point the finger at men alone.
I agree, on some cases the male can perform well and knows the tools (and her tools) well enough but the female emotional and psychological state plays far more than the physical. Orgasm is achieved easier if the female is “ON” for it.
I tend to think that both women and men suffer from a great deal of poor societal programming.
Both are presented with mixed messages. Women are told to guard their virginity and to be promiscuous sluts. Men are told to be somehow sensitive and indifferent.
None of this is very conducive to great sex. Great sex is like great dancing. You can learn the steps and choreograph a masterpiece, but unless you can connect with your partner and trust them…it’s not gonna turn out.

While it helps that a man knows how to please a woman, but overall it is the woman’s responsibility to achieve orgasm. Women are usually taught that touching themselves is wrong, or being involved in a sexual relationship with one or two guys makes them a slut, so some don’t even bother to self explore to learn what pleases them or let alone learn what makes them tick with their partner. And I agree that the mental psyche plays a huge role in woman’s ability to have an orgasm: some could have suffered traumas in their life, some feel insecure and inexperienced, some feel that it’s the mans job to please them…It could be a lot of things, and if the woman is busy thinking and worrying about other things and not pleasing herself then no shit there is going to be a problem. Also some women feel pressure by society and their partners to achieve orgasm if they had not, “Are you close yet?” “did you come?” “You’re not turned on by me” “Don’t worry you’ll come eventually” that kind of prodding makes a woman feel insufficient and insecure, one should have to feel pressured to have an orgasm .. Gentlemen if a woman were to say those kinds of things to you, how would that make you feel? Ladies if you’re worried about your ability to reach orgasm, get off your ass and start playing with yourself! Learn what pleases you and show your partner so he knows that to do, trust me, he would be ecstatic to hear you tell him these things. I was one of the women who just couldn’t quite reach orgasm so I had to learn things the hard way, but once I did learn it’s now easier for me to have an orgasm. Women are going to have to want it, push all mood killing thoughts aside, and be trusting and connect with their partner.

Interestingly, I would credit both the ability of more men than women to locate the clitoris, and the ongoing depressingly low orgasm stats for women, as having quite a bit to do with porn. Positives of porn: many more men now know where the clit is and that it requires attention, although much of that attention is pretty heavy-handed and too brief. (And because most porn is made for and targeted at men to a degree that can be off-putting to many women, not surprising the educational aspects of locating the clit give men the advantage.) Negatives of porn: often formulaic sexual activity designed to get the male watcher off, not the female performer, therefore zero educational aspects re not only inducing female orgasm, but also re inducing female mindset conducive to orgasm.
[...] Meanwhile, men typically overestimate their ability to bring women to orgasm even though the statistics are against her. To say that men, generally speaking, are in need of a little sexual education [...]
believe me i was also unaware of my body parts can behave like this awesome and really interesting. good post
awesome story.
just wanted to throw this out there. im a 22 year old guy, and i have successfully faked an orgasm. I rock!
I think the biggest problem women face in sexual pleasure is societal conceptions of sex. First of all, it is taken for granted that orgasm should be the object of sex. If orgasm was not seen as the benchmark, women would not be made to feel deficient and could just enjoy the physical sensations of sex rather than worrying that the man’s ego will be wounded because she didn’t get off (Because many men seem to treat female orgasm as a means by which to judge their sexual prowess more than as a pleasurable outcome for their partner).
More importantly, the heteronormative definition of sex caters to male pleasure, not female pleasure. Penile-vaginal intercourse is definitively considered sex or “real sex” despite the fact that this does not tend to be the most pleasurable aspect of sex for women. And the activities that are the most pleasurable– kissing, caressing, grinding, cunninglingus,etc.– are considered extraneous. Seen as merely a prelude to sex, it is often rushed through and women can be made to feel like they are holding up sex for wanting it. If these things were thought of as part of sex instead of as foreplay, it would be easier for women to get off. Instead we just make women feel deficient simply because women tend to enjoy other sexual acts more than the acts that give men the most pleasure.
nice article! really informational!
