Think of sex as outercourse, not intercourse and she's all yours

According to a survey published in the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy, most women need clitoral stimulation more than penetrative sex to have an orgasm.

Researchers asked 1,055 women, between the age of 18 and 94, to answer some questions related to their sexual lives. This was done to know about the sexual preferences of women and the contribution of clitoral and vaginal stimulation in their orgasm.

Sex Pulse

According to the study, only around 18 per cent of women said that they climaxed during intercourse from vaginal penetration alone. About 36 per cent reported that they needed clitoral stimulation to reach orgasm during intercourse and another 36 per cent said that clitoral stimulation actually acts as a bonus and enhances sexual pleasure.

Again, only 18 percent of women get satisfaction from plain vaginal sex, meaning that if intercourse is how you roll, there are high chances that most of your partners have faked pleasure to make you happy. Women apparently do so to please their partners.

So, starting thinking of sex as outercourse more than it is intercourse. Focus more on foreplay as your default setting and you are golden.

What is outercourse?

Outercourse is every sexual activity that does not include penetration: touching, kissing, giving erotic massage, and so on.

Some 78 percent of the survey respondents say better orgasms are not associated with the duration of sexual encounter but the emotional intimacy, clitoral stimulation, basically, foreplay.

You may be surprised to know that 41 percent of women involved in the survey reported to like only one kind of touch. But, do their partners know this? Most probably, no. That is why we say that communication is the key. Talk to your better half about your preferences so that you can get what you want. Your partner will find it thrilling too.
