How To Reach
Orgasm During Sex Or Masturbation
Making sex better!
How can you improve the breadth and depth of your sex
life? These days, many of us have been exposed to new areas of sexual
activity which, a few years ago, we'd have never even dreamed about.
Whether or not these appeal is another matter, of course, but the point
is that there are lots of things you can do to give yourself a wider and
more interesting sexual relationship.
You may want to watch porn or you may feel drawn to
try bondage or sado-masochistic sex, swap partners, act out your
fantasies or try threesomes. Some of these activities may well prove to
be less enjoyable in reality than they are in fantasy! In reality, you
may actually just enjoy trying sex in new places (out of doors for
example), or you might be content to try new sexual positions. Or you
might like to introduce toys into your sex life. What's most important,
here, I think, is that whatever you elect to try, it should not be
something which causes you harm or damages your relationship.
The basic rule is this: no coercion. No matter how
much you might want to try something new, there should never be any
coercion of your sexual partner into an activity which he or she may
find distressing, unacceptable, or unpleasant.
You may wish to spend some time thinking about what
it is that makes you feel discomfort around a particular sexual
activity, and you may even find that this process is sufficient to allow
you to try it. (An example would be when a woman doesn't wish to try
anal sex, for example, because she is afraid it might hurt her.) Of
course, an important point to keep in mind is that there is no reason
why you should try something that doesn't appeal to you! Sometimes it's
hard to keep a sense of perspective in these matters, when the pressure
of the culture seems to be all about doing things in a certain way, or
having certain expectations of yourself or your partner. It's also
important o keep in mind that you don't have to enjoy everything you
try!
In the end, though, you may find that the best way
forward is to agree with your partner on those things which you find
acceptable and to draw boundaries which you know are important for you -
those are the sexual boundaries which you won't cross, at least for now.
In setting such boundaries, it's important to remember that rejection,
or a sense of rejection, can feel very hurtful. When you ask your
partner for some new sexual experience, or you set out what is
acceptable for you, please do it in a way that ensures neither you nor
your partner feels rejected.
If you want to try oral sex, there is some very good information here.
If you want to try anal sex, you can get all the facts you need here.
And if you still cannot
reach orgasm..... What if
you've reached this point and you still cannot get to orgasm? There are
several things you might consider doing. The first is to watch and wait
- see what happens as times goes by. If your sexual horizons have
expanded widely, you might want to just enjoy your new-found sexuality
and see how it develops for you. You may see it as unrealistic to expect
to have multiple orgasms, simultaneous orgasms, and and orgasm every
time you make love. As time goes by, however, and as you learn more
about your own sexual responses and those of your partner, you may find
that you naturally become more orgasmic and more fully sexual.
If, on the other hand, you want to expand your
sexuality even further more quickly, you might like to take your work
further with a sexual therapist, either together with or separately from
your partner. You may wish to look for individual therapy (for issues
like low self-esteem or sexual abuse), couples therapy (for issues
within your relationship), or sexual therapy (specifically for issues
around sexuality). Certainly low levels of sexual desire and issues
related to abuse need to be looked at in the context of professional
sexual therapy. As you may know, the recommended process is to talk to
several therapists and select the one who seems to be most "in tune"
with you. Advice on finding the right
therapist can be found here.
