O-verestimation

About 85% of men in one survey said their partners achieved release during their last sensual encounter; only 64% of women reported reaching release. This discrepancy may be attributed to men’s reluctance to admit their partners didn’t release, but some of it is likely honest confusion – many men mistake a partner’s pleasurable moans and movements for a release when that’s not actually what’s happening. Communication is key here.

General Release Discrepancy

In one study, 75% of men reported regularly reaching the big finish in their sensual lives; only half of women could say the same.

Pain

Researchers found that 30% of women surveyed reported that they find sensual activity to be painful. While some soreness is bound to result from a long or rough session, this high number indicates that something else might be going on.

Oral Discrepancy

Men receive more oral activity than women – and the gap is widest for women in their 30’s. Seventy-eight percent of men in this age group reported receiving oral in the last year, compared to only 59% of women. Get those tongues moving, guys!

Conclusions

What can be gleaned from these studies? When it comes to sensual activity, women tend to give more than they get. Release is typically more difficult for women to reach, and some may be just fine with not getting there every time. But here are a few general tips for men who want to maximize their partners’ pleasure – something any man should have in mind:

• Mix up the activities. It’s easier for many women to release if sensual activity involves variety. And one important ingredient in this, for some women, is oral. If a man is self-conscious about licking his lady, he can feel free to ask how she likes it, and to check in as he goes. Never be too proud to ask – she’ll likely appreciate the attention to her enjoyment. And, since every woman is different, it in no way reflects poorly on a man’s skill or experience.

• Think she had a release? Ask to be sure. If that gets old, consider asking her to announce when she’s about to finish. This can be a big turn-on for a man, and a woman may get a thrill out of saying the words. And, of course, it lets a man know what’s really going on!

• Make sure she’s not in pain. Using adequate lubrication can help here – even if she tends to be quite wet, having a product on hand in case she starts to dry out is a good idea. Don’t be afraid to check in and make sure she’s comfortable – some people hesitate to say when they are not enjoying something or are feeling pain in the heat of the moment, and opening up the door now and then can help her express herself more easily.

When a woman’s pleasure is as central to sensual activity as a man’s, a couple may find itself engaging in more frequent activity. While that’s a great thing indeed, it can take a toll on the male organ – particularly the male organ skin. Lubrication will help protect against friction and chafing. So will the daily use of a male organ health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). Man1 Man Oil contains both Shea butter and vitamin E, two excellent natural moisturizers. When it comes to lotion, it’s best to go for something made for the male organ, since hand and body creams may be too harsh for the delicate male skin. Take good care of the manhood so it is ready to go for the next romp.
