14: The Orgasm Gap: Rethinking Pleasure, With Sex Educator Portia Brown And Intimacy Coach Charlene Douglas

Am I Making You Uncomfortable?

“There are people that still believe that it's harder for people with vulvas to achieve orgasm, or that women have to have some sort of crazy emotional, psychological connection in order to achieve orgasm,” says New York-based sex educator, Portia Brown, who joins this week’s episode, alongside intimacy coach Charlene Douglas. No wonder there’s an orgasm gender gap. Studies show that heterosexual men are far more likely to orgasm during sex than heterosexual women; while lesbian and bisexual women are also known to orgasm more than straight women. We explore all this and more in this episode, alongside stories from our listeners sharing their most memorable orgasms to show there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to female pleasure.
