My ex-boyfriend and I were in complete agreement over who had more pleasure from sex/sexual activity. Between my multiple orgasms and his complaints that he could feel only a tiny amount of sensation when he wore a condom, it was pretty obvious. At one point, he told me he was rather jealous of how good a time I seemed to be having.
Women apparently have twice as many sensory nerves in their clitoris than men do in their entire shlong. It seems odd that then that men are typically the ones in relationships who always want sex.
Do you think men or women generally get more pleasure from sexual activity?

I would say women. We have a lot of things to stick stuff in.
Men. About 3 out of 4 women cannot orgasm through intercourse alone. Our orgasms might be more intense, but they're infinitely harder to achieve.
This is only true if he's circumcised. The foreskin contains 20,000 nerve endings. The clitoris contains 8,000 nerve endings. The circumcised penis contains 4,000 nerve endings (making the intact penis have 24,000 nerve endings).
This is why uncircumcised men enjoy so much more sexual pleasure than their circumcised counterparts.
Women. However, I get more pleasure from giving oral sex to my lover.
It totally depends on how good your partner is, not to mention how into it you are. A woman can get off multiple times, but that depends on so many different things. Guys are pretty much guaranteed pleasure.
@LauraG0929@xanga - I agree.
women, and in absolute complete seriousness, especially in my hands.
women.
compare it to scratching your ear, when it itches. what feels better after, your finger, or your ear.
there's your answer.
interesting..
I'd say, IF a woman can actually have an orgasm, then women likely do. Unfortunately, a lot of women do miss out. Men at least are nearly, like someone else said, guaranteed an orgasm with sexual activity. But with women, we can have multiples stacked one after another and have them (as far as I know) without extreme difficulty once the whole thing gets nicely figured out. We can have super long ones, too. Screamingly good ones. All kinds of good stuff. I had a professor who liked to say something like, "Women have a greater capacity for sexual pleasure than men do. A woman who is sexually fulfilled will probably want more sex than her husband can take." (And yet still be fulfilled? Idk. Maybe he meant that with women, the more sexy fun they have the more they want it.)
I think that men can achieve orgasm more often then women because honestly all they need is a single sexual thought and some rubbing down there and they orgasm. It might not be as fulfilling...but they achieve orgasm.
whereas with women its a whooolllee sensory experience with us. We have to be IN the moment and our heads have to be completely in the act...you have to seduce our MINDS first before you can do anything with our bodies...thats how women are. we are emotional beings and this absolutely does not exclude sex. One out of place thought during the act and it can put us back to step one...kinda fustrating at times cause all you wanna do is get there and just thinking about cumming is distracting you from cumming lol.
but i def think even though womens orgasm can be really intense it is much harder cause our minds are sometimes ALL over the placee...
and im pretty sure most women dont achieve orgasm from penetrative sex alone.
men
@sexncookies@xanga - That makes a lot of sense.
@sexncookies@xanga - I definitely agree!
men run out of shots. women can be made to be multi-orgasmic. Now doing that to a woman is almost as pleasurable as an orgasm for a lot of men or women. it takes trust and intimacy to get the response from a woman, for her to be able to loose control. of course some women can have forced orgasms.. kinda the kinky side of things... its not all lovey dovey.
wish i could have multiple orgasms =[
women!
No one can really answer this unless they have been a man and a woman... and then it still wouldn't even be 100% accurate. Everyone is different.
for a woman to orgasm simply takes trust..
considering her sexual contextual areas are not only inclusive to her
clitoris and nipples(with attached areolae) but, in fact, takes in her
entire epidermis... a woman can be brought to orgasm by simply stroking
her hair... massaging her feet... and quite a number of other places
without ever getting close to the main event, the honey pot, the
crevice of desire....
(and yes ladies its a trust issue, if you cant achieve then truly think on that k)
lol us dudes..stroke us right in the one spot..we make a mess and fall asleep heh ... heaven...
theoretically, women. practically and on average, men (see the plethora of general complaints from women about their terrible lovers). i think your article assumes that both parties know what they're doing in bed. also, as a man i can't get pregnant - whatever the pleasure difference is, i'll take freedom from being pregnant over a better orgasm or potentially more orgasms, any day,i suppose - although come to think of it, if i were a woman, there's absolutely no doubt in my mind that i'd be an unmitigated lesbian.
I'd definately say the man has more pleasure!
i say women. i realized that i could easily slip my mind into my own imagination even if the sex isn't that great and still enjoy the sex while a man can't. i don't know the reason why though.
@mewithoutu77@xanga - Mmm. I want your imagination.
@youaintjam@xanga - are u sure? it's a bit out of whack right now.
ah, we have to ask Tiresas, the blind prophet from Oedipus. :) This question has been proposed by Zeus.
@mewithoutu77@xanga - That sucks. I hope the sex isn't suffering from that.
