s*x FACTS: 10 Things You Didn’t Know About Orgasms

Orgasms are as much a part of women’s health
as dental floss but a lot more fun.
For all the things you’ve been dying to find out as
well as things you’ve never even thought of, expand
your knowledge about climax with these facts.
1) Men are having more of them. Nearly a
quarter of men claim to climax once a day,
compared to just 15% of women. Unfair much?
2) People are still embarrassed by them. Over
15% of s*x toy owners hide their toys from their
partners. Seriously? Get them out.
3) They’re good for you. As well as the obvious
fun, self servicing is good for you people! Countless
studies show climax can actually reduce pain
sensitivity, relieve cramps and alleviate stress.
4) They get better with age. While it’s obviously
fairly difficult to determine, experts say that
because you know your body better and are more
comfortable with s*x when you’re older, the ‘Big O’
is a happier place to visit in your 40s, 50s and
beyond. Something to look forward to then!
5) Orgasms are better when you wait. According
to a study published in the World Journal of
Urology, abstaining from any s*xual activity for
three weeks means your testosterone levels will
peak and boost your libido resulting in a super-
climax.
6) They’re determined by your walk. No really. A
recent Belgian study claims that you can tell just by
the way a woman walks whether she’s able to
climax during intercourse.
7) They’re usually followed by poking of a
completely different type. Apparently 36% of
people under the age of 35 head straight to
Facebook and Twitter post-s*x. What happened to
cuddling guys?
8) They just might help you live longer. Unlike
all those other good things (like say chocolate or
wine) it turns out that orgasms might actually be
good for our health. According to the British
Medical Journal, there’s a strong correlation
between orgasms and mortality rates and those
who climax two times a week or more can add up
to eight years on to their life. Why? Apparently it
boosts the immune system, hearth health and brain
power.
9) They’re literally mind-numbing. Researchers
have found that some areas of a woman’s brain
actually shut down during climax, including those
involved in emotion.
10) They make you look younger. Some doctors
say frequent s*x can increase collagen production,
which helps to reduce age spots and keep skin
looking young and taut. Apparently orgasms also
give you oxytocin (known as ‘the love hormone’)
which produces ‘glowing effects’. Cheaper than a
facial too.
