Why should you take part in this survey? Because good sex is at the core of a happy and satisfying sexual relationship A better understanding of the female orgasm, and helping women become more aware of how they can improve their ability to orgasm, should have a major impact on the sex lives of millions of couples. There is strong evidence that the sexual satisfaction of both partners seems to be reduced when a woman's pelvic floor muscles are weakened as a result of childbirth, menopause or the lack of effective exercise. This leads directly to a lack of physical contact and stimulation during intercourse which means that in many cases neither partner can reach orgasm through intercourse alone. “We have a lot of men who say 'I can have sex, but don’t want to; it’s not rewarding'", Peter Bell, Relate, 2008 The female orgasm has always been a matter of intense interest
and the subject of incredible media hype. There is plenty of advice about how to
have 'better sex'.
Some 'experts' dismiss the idea that vaginal and clitoral orgasms are even distinguishable; for others the subject is at the root of the feminist debate. For many women
that centre of intense ecstasy - the G-spot - is a myth Recent scientific discoveries would appear to substantiate this view. There are many women who would just like to experience any orgasm of any kind! The Orgasm Survey hopes to improve our knowledge of what women actually experience and to raise the awareness of the sex benefits of effective pelvic floor exercises. The survey is totally confidential and takes just a couple of minutes to complete.
Important: You can only complete the survey once

How our view of orgasms has changed over the years
"The female orgasm is
located in the clitoris and this will take precedence over the vaginal orgasm in
the early years of marriage" "Sexual passion is the driving force in life
in a partnership of equals. Men desire physical gratification; female
fulfillment is enhanced by home and children. Out of that mix comes
orgasm." "Sexual feeling within the vagina is closely related to muscle tone, and can be improved through muscle education and resistive
exercise. 78 of 123 women complaining explicitly of sexual deficits achieved orgasm following the training.”
"The vagina is not designed as a pleasure centre and therefore attributions of frigidity based on not reaching vaginal climax (as opposed to clitoral climax)
are a construction of patriarchal masculinity. Some would say the natural sexual act
is irrelevant to women's pleasure, but instrumental in women's subordination. The location of women's pleasure in the vagina, rather than the clitoris,
is an expression of the way in which sex has been organised solely in the interests of men."
"Research indicates that perhaps only 10% of women can achieve coital orgasm."
"Satisfaction was directly
connected to sexual assertiveness, frequent sex, using many techniques, and
orgasm. A woman was significantly less likely to
have had an orgasm if she was 16-19 or 50-59. She was significantly more likely
to have had an orgasm if she spoke English at home, had completed post-secondary
education, had a higher household income and had a managerial/professional
occupation. Orgasm was least likely if the only reported practice was vaginal
intercourse." "Women without any visible evidence of a G spot cannot have a vaginal orgasm".
Before using the PelvicToner only a third of women said they ‘often’ or ‘always’ achieved a vaginal orgasm during penetrative sex.
