Orgasm
Orgasm is the peak of sexual pleasure during sexual activity. It usually happens after increasing sexual arousal and stimulation and is commonly called coming or cumming. An orgasm can occur during sexual intercourse, oral sex, masturbation, handjob or other sexual activity.
Male Orgasm
A male orgasm usually includes strong rhythmic muscle contractions and ejaculation of semen from the penis. Orgasm and ejaculation normally happen together, although they are not exactly the same thing.
Men commonly reach orgasm through stimulation of the penis, especially during vaginal sex, oral sex, anal sex, handjob or masturbation.
Female Orgasm
A female orgasm is the climax of female sexual arousal and usually includes rhythmic contractions of the pelvic muscles. Stimulation of the clitoris is one of the most common ways for women to reach orgasm.
Orgasm may also happen through vaginal sex, oral sex, masturbation or stimulation of other sensitive areas. Some girls orgasm quickly while others need considerably more stimulation.
Multiple Orgasms
Multiple orgasms are two or more orgasms during the same sexual session. They are more common among women, although men may also experience more than one orgasm.
Orgasm and Sex
Orgasm is commonly considered the climax of sex, but not every sexual encounter ends with one. How easily a person reaches orgasm depends on arousal, stimulation and the individual.
