HOW LONG DOES A FEMALE ORGASM LAST?

HOW LONG DOES AN ORGASM LAST?

The orgasm is one of the most pleasurable parts of sex, whether it involves sex toys or traditional sex. The duration of an orgasm varies between vulva and penis owners, and according to research, these times can vary quite a bit. The good news is that, barring medical or mental health issues, everyone is capable of experiencing an orgasm. The duration and intensity of orgasms can vary based on physical health and sexual habits.

THE DIFFERENCES IN DURATION OF ORGASMS

Vulva owners tend to have longer orgasms than penis owners. Research shows that female orgasms last about 16 seconds on average, while male orgasms last about 6 seconds on average. This difference also applies to the time it takes to reach orgasm during sexual stimulation. It takes about 8 minutes for a penis owner to reach orgasm during sex, while a woman or vulva owner needs an average of 14 minutes of sexual activity to reach the same point.

CAN ALL WOMEN EXPERIENCE ORGASMS?

Here’s a disheartening statistic: 10-15% of women have never had an orgasm. This may sound discouraging, but it’s important to know that it doesn’t have to be that way. These women aren’t necessarily incapable of orgasm; it’s just that the circumstances in their lives haven’t led them to that experience yet.

While orgasm is not necessary to enjoy sexuality, it can help to know that healthy sex is not always about orgasm. Enjoying touch and loving your own body is valuable too.
