Are your orgasms during sex different than your orgasms from masturbation? I'm just wondering, because my long distance girlfriend says when she masturbates the orgasm isn't as good as when she comes from sex (which made me feel good). It probably has to do with the emotional component, but interested in the mechanics of it.
This is how it is for me. I obviously can't speak for everyone. They feel completely different to me. My orgasms from masturbation are stronger than those from sex. But sexual ones are of a better quality (don't ask how, I don't know) and during sex I'm very multi-orgasmic, whereas during masturbation I'm not. Here's a reasonable comparison: Masturbation is like eating a slice of dry bread when you're hungry - you won't be hungry anymore but there's no real thrill involved. Sex is like eating at an amazing restaurant - so good your body remembers it for hours or even days and years later you might still be talking about how good it was. Masturbation is just scratching an itch. Sex wins by a mile.
If masturbation felt better we would never make any babies. I actually like a baby oil wank as a part of sex...so its a bit of both. Baby oil is great. Sex is better though, especially if I can cum inside :wink:
Not sure if you realized this, but the OP was asking women specifically. The men's version of this thread is here: http://www.lpsg.org/191409-do-you-achieve-a-stronger.html
i disagree. I've had many wanks/jerk offs from women that produce orgasms way better than intercourse. Of course it's subjective, but for me it's true.
you can't disagree with how it is for her when she clearly states that she speaks for nobody else. and this thread is asking how WOMEN experience orgasm. sheesh
a) You're a man, not a woman. b) I believe the OP meant masturbation ALONE, or sexual activities WITH ANOTHER PERSON (although I was referring mostly to penetrative sex in my comment that you quoted).
Thanks Dolfette :smile:. I made sure I did that because I've know women on here and IRL who don't orgasm at all through sex or prefer masturbation orgasms.
They both feel different for me. I think an orgasm from sex is better for me. I think the emotional bond I have with my bf plays a significant role in how much better my orgasms are during sex with him than how they are on my own.
I guess I'd pick sex orgasm if I had to pick one. I didn't vote though because I have a bit of a problem with masturbation orgasm versus sex orgasm. Both feel fantastic so I can't say one is better than the other, not ultimately. And I can't say they feel the same because they don't -- both have different things going for them.
