Vaginal Orgasm,: is it a myth?

Adrienne Rich is an American feminist, poet, teacher and writer.

She claims that women do not have a preference towards heterosexuality, but may find it imposed, managed, organized, propagandized, and maintained by society. She holds that women receive messages every day that promote heterosexual normativity in the form of myths perpetuated by society.
She claims that compulsory heterosexuality produces such myths as that of the "vaginal orgasm", which Anne Koedt also writes about in her essay "The Myth of the Vaginal Orgasm". Both argue that the vaginal orgasm is a myth that serves to imply that only a man can sexually satisfy a woman (by delivering a vaginal orgasm), and hence that serves to prevent women from having relationships with other women.

Over to you Ladies....

Many women have vaginal orgasms. Some do not.

Those who do not, often talk or write about it.

Similarly, a few hundred people might complain about the content of a television programme or an advertisement, whilst many millions of people do not. We, of course, only hear about the infinitessimally small number of people who complained.

No woman can have a vaginal orgasm. Some can have an orgasm from vaginal sex, where the clitoris is situmulated by the act, but it's the stimulation of the clitoris, like the penis, that leads to orgasm.

For all their intellect and influence even noted people can talk shit. Thats good to know as I d believe there is an art to talking shit and Adrienne Rich does it quite well.

Applying her words to many conversations with those of the opposite sex, I have known of plenty girls who admit to having orgasms via the love tunnel. Some have admitted they can have orgasms just by thinking hard about something that turns them on.

I'm not a girl so I would never know these things first hand but I reckon women like Adrienne Rich speak from their own personal point of views and have just never experienced it, therefore try to put it in logical explanation that if they dont experience it therefore other women must be lying.

Well I've heard some women have had anal orgasms Adrienne. What do you say to that then?

If I was to generalise it all, I think all sex starts in the head so therefore, you can orgasm simply if something just turns you on and just trips that switch. i reckon thats what an orgasm is, the pleasurable equivalent of a funny bone or the fuse that deals with a surge overload of stimulation to prevent your eyeballs popping out and your head exploding. Sex would be a very messy affair if this happened all the time.

Adrienne should learn to be selfish like guys are. Use the guy for your own pleasure and myabe you might get somthing out of it. The reason why a lot of girls cant orgasm is because they cannot relax thinking that a man should know how to make her come.

Rubbish.

If a woman doesn t know her own body then how can a man ever possibly know. Even reading all the books and internet sites cannot prepare you for every individual woman.

Terry's talking sense. These women are talking shiite.

Most girls I've been with can orgasm both ways - either clitorally(sp?), or vaginally. In fact, my last girlfriend, once she'd cum clitorally, used to say her clitoris was too sensative to touch again and ask me to make her cum vaginally.

Think about how your bellend is really sensative just after you've cum and you'll know the feeling a girl gets on her clitoris after a clitoral orgasm.....only magnified 200 times because there are many more nerve endings!

Vaginal orgasms don't work in the same way, and as a man I wouldn't know where to start explaining them.

I don't think that the girls who cannot orgasm vaginally are different genetically, but maybe they are mentally?

I'd say that was the correct spelling there Prof.

A key point is that Rich was married and gave birth to three children.
Her husband commited suicide and after this her view that all women are actually Lesbians and that hetrosexuality is forced upon women surfaced in the late 1970's, which was the time that she declared that she was a Lesbian....
