Date: 2014-10-18 10:37 am (UTC)Of course, a study that starts from the assumption that if women are anorgasmic it must be because their partners are crap at sex will probably find evidence to support that. Eg people, presumed male because lots of sex research is heterosexist, "should" focus more direct stimulation of the external clitoris and less on vaginal penetration. With that sort of assumption built into a study, the evidence would look consistent with that interpretation. Direct clitoral stimulation is probably good for lots of women and essential for women who lack a G-spot to be able to orgasm. But I think it's a mistake to claim that that type of sexual activity is more "feminist" or more pleasurable for all women.
