As in sexually. I just don't work.

I can reach orgasm through penetration when I'm on top but as some posters said, it is actually clitoral stimulation that triggers it because of the position. It doesn't work in any other position for me or hasn't yet anyway!

58 years old here and never had a PIV orgasm and I have had in my younger years a far few partners.

RockinD · 16/04/2014 19:51

Not me either I'm afraid. Have come close a couple of times over the year, but never actually managed it.

Raxa, how do you know if you've not tried may I ask? Its not unusual for a womans first orgasm to happen alone, and with sex aids.

Bonsoir · 16/04/2014 20:31

I disagree with PP - it's not male technique so much as female inhibition that prevents women from having orgasms through penetration. Let go...

msrisotto · 16/04/2014 20:44

Nope, I'm not inhibited and I still can't come solely through penetration. It's not a woman's fault if she doesn't, it might just be the way it is. However, I will not stop trying Wink.

I've had a vaginal inside orgasm I think doggy style and with an ex bf whilst staying at his brother's flat house sitting (brother was away!) I was shocked at the intensity of it. It was the mattress apparently v firm and even his brother told him that it was "good for shagging on!". Wink

SuperFlyHigh · 16/04/2014 20:52

Oh I had a few of those that week too....!

Darkesteyes · 16/04/2014 21:31

Bonsoir when I was seeing my ex OM I had just turned 30 AND lost 10 stone and was completely uninhibited because he certainly let me know how turned on he was by me.

I used to walk around his flat naked without a care in the world. Does that sound inhibited to you?

yr post reads like a thinly veiled attempt at blaming this on women and making us feel we have to justify ourselves for not being one homogenous mass.

Londonlost · 16/04/2014 21:32

Thanks MN, everyday is an education, not so embarrassed now!

Frankly though, any man making you feel bad/inferior based on something you're not biologically designed for because his exes were is REALLY not on.

Theres that treating women like one big mass again!

MoominsAreScary · 16/04/2014 21:42

I can have vaginal orgasms, but only with him using his hand and lots of baby oil never through piv

WooWooo · 16/04/2014 21:47

I do when having sofa sex with me on top, him sat fairly upright facing me

Twighlightsparkle · 16/04/2014 21:49

Yes I have but not always.

Feels completely different to an orgasm through clitoral,stimulation, lasts longer and stronger.

Lollyheart · 16/04/2014 22:03

Never had one either, thb I'd happily never have sex again, I have zero sex drive.

thankfully dh only lasts threemin
Maybe I should of name changed for this Grin

Kundry · 16/04/2014 22:04

Have done once, was rather surprised as thought it was a myth.

God knows how it happened though as have never managed it again.

RedRoom · 16/04/2014 22:10

Londonlost- any man who thinks his exes all orgasmed through penetration, and they did so either most times or every time, has in all likelihood encountered some faking! You are perfectly normal whereas he is rather deluded. Given that he is making you feel bad, I can definitely see why they may have pretended just to shut him up.

BleachedWhale · 16/04/2014 22:17

During penetration, yes, if the correct positioning of pubic bones means my clitoris gets conveniently stimulated, but I wouldn't orgasm simply from having a penis, or anything else, move in and out of my vagina without my clit being touched, or moved, or pressed.

NameMeaName · 16/04/2014 22:34

Raxa, you are not alone. I have never had one either and I don't even masturbate as I'm not thus inclined, therefore I can't even tell dh what he needs to do as I have no idea.
I intend to get more in touch with my body and sexuality once the children are both sleeping through the night...wish me luck!

VelmaD · 16/04/2014 22:43

NamemeaName, do it. Please. Do it. You can get some toys to use alone, tingling lubes, or things to use with your partner. I spent years not orgasming until I was single once and fed up, and delved into it. I didnt do it first time, or even second, but once you get a bit of practise you learn what you do and dont like. Ann summers deliver in discrete packaging so you dont even need to go into a shop now. Every woman deserves an orgasm.

Canihaveaslice · 16/04/2014 23:34

I never had an orgasm at all until I was in my 20 . s I used to think there was something wrong with me as foreplay just felt painful. So I bought a vibrator and never looked back. It took a while to recognise the feeling but oh my god!
Even now I never come through oral, fingers, sex etc but always can with a toy. I'm just glad I finally discovered what everyone was going on about.

MostWicked · 16/04/2014 23:38

I have done a handful of times but only because the position was just right to give clitoral stimulation.
Really I need clitoral stimulation either manual or with a toy in order to orgasm.

What does it matter how you get there as long as you enjoy the journey!

EBearhug · 16/04/2014 23:49

I find it easier with something inside, to grip on, but I'm fully prepared to accept I'm not normal. Also there might be some other stimulation going on, it's not just penetration. Can't remember that far back to be sure about what happens at all, really.
