50% of British Women have Faked an Orgasm with their Partner
Why do women do this? I was thinking about my experience of faking and there were a few driving factors
The cultural sex scripts I had picked up from TV etc, taught me that sex meant quick penetration, a focus on male ejaculation and that women, without much clitoral stimulation get off on that. I faked orgasms to fit into that script.
I believed the narrative that women don’t derive as much pleasure from sex as men and it’s something to get over and done with ‘for them’
I felt greedy to need clitoral stimulation for more than 5 minutes, because that took longer than what a man needed to become aroused
I found the sex I was having lasted too long and I used faking an orgasm to make my partner climax quicker so that we could stop
I assumed me asking for what I wanted, would hurt my partner’s feelings
The first few times I asked my partner (back when I was 19) to change what he was doing, he dismissed me and I internalised that I had done something bad
I’m guessing others have had similar experiences/motivations.
I stopped faking after a disastrous relationship and promised myself never again (if you’re curious about that story you can read here).
Over the years, I’ve learned how my beliefs around s/ex and relationships were wrong and I’ve also sought out practices and teachings that revolutionised my s/ex and expanded the pleasure I feel.
These kinds of experiences and others are what inspired me to work in this field. To help create a world where women don’t fake. Where sex is pleasurable for everyone and based on honest communication between partners.
It’s why I do what I do, and why I’ve created The Pleasure Upgrade where you learn these skills for yourself.
