The 2008 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.

There is anecdotal evidence that the majority of women have never experienced a vaginal orgasm, and many women have never achieved any kind of orgasm.

In contrast, over 80% of women shown how to exercise correctly report a much improved sex life and many experience orgasm for the first time.

Why you should 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 (UK National Relationship Counselling Organisation) 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’. But the reality of what women actually experience is shrouded in mystery.

Some ‘experts’ dismiss the idea that vaginal and clitoral orgasms are even distinguishable; for others this subject is at the root of the feminist debate.

For many women that centre of intense ecstasy – the G-spot – is a myth and for most the vaginal orgasm seems to an unattainable dream.

Recent scientific discoveries would appear to substantiate this view. Scientists have claimed that unless there is a ‘visible’ G-spot a vaginal orgasm is impossible.

If you are one of the many women who would just like to experience any orgasm of any kind then your experience is just as important to the survey!

“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.”
Rev Herbert Gray, a founder of the UK Marriage Guidance Council, 1938

“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.”
Arnold H. Kegel. Western Journal of Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1952

“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.”
Anna Koedt, The Myth of the Vaginal Orgasm, 1970

“Research indicates that perhaps only 10% of women can achieve coital orgasm.”
Female Orgasm: Role of Pubococcygeus Muscles” Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, 1979

“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.”
