𝑨𝑵𝑺𝑾𝑬𝑹: The Orgasm Gap is the decreased rate of orgasm for women during sex with cis men. A woman's chance of orgasm during sex drops from 97% to 65% when having sex with a straight man. And that is only if they are familiar with their partner. The rate of orgasm for women plummets even further during casual/hookup sex with straight men. **No other gender sees this kind of decrease in achieving pleasure during sex, and it does not occur when a woman has sex with any other gender.**
Patriarchy starts in the bedroom. If we are not willing to dedicate the time necessary to learn about a woman's orgasm and give that to her during sex, what does that say about the level of respect we have for her? And what does that say about how often fear and miscommunication play a role in our most intimate time together?
