Sex is a big part of life, and while it’s needed to keep the human race going, it can also be for fun.

However, it turns out that not everybody is truthful about how much fun they’re actually having.

But before we dive into this, it’s important to remember that sometimes it isn’t about the destination, but about the journey… or so I’ve been told.

Well, according to the New York Post around 46% of women say they regularly fake orgasms with their partner.

And according to NBC News, around 80% of women have admitted to doing it at some point in their life.

But how can you tell if your partner is feigning pleasure or experiencing the real deal?

Self-proclaimed orgasm expert Katie Flowers has shared her insights on this intimate topic, providing key signs to help identify genuine moments of pleasure.

“Don’t underestimate the power of your intuition,” Flowers told the New York Post. “If something feels off, it probably is. Trust your gut instincts to guide you toward genuine moments of pleasure.”

According to Flowers, physical cues such as flushed cheeks and subtle bodily responses are more reliable indicators of authenticity than vocal expressions like moaning or screaming, which can be easily faked.

For those who discover their partner is pretending, Flowers offers reassurance: “True intimacy is about connection, not performance. Focus on building a deeper connection with your partner and savoring the shared experience.”

She emphasized the importance of understanding human sexuality, adding: “Knowledge is power, and understanding the complexities of human sexuality can help you navigate intimate encounters with confidence.”

While faked orgasms are a common phenomenon, there are also rare instances of the opposite extreme. Liz, a woman who appeared on a 2014 episode of TLC’s Sex Sent Me to the ER, shared her extraordinary experience of a “never-ending” orgasm.

After having sex with her partner Eric, Liz found herself trapped in a prolonged orgasmic state. Describing the ordeal as “physically, emotionally, and mentally taxing,” Liz said she tried everything from drinking red wine to taking antihistamines in a desperate attempt to stop the sensation.

Eric eventually convinced Liz to seek medical attention, and the couple shared their unusual predicament with the hospital staff.

“Until you actually experience it, you can’t understand,” Liz said. “I had to call in and tell my boss that I wasn’t feeling very well. I ended up calling every medical professional I’ve ever seen in my life to try and get somebody to give me an answer!”

After several hours, Liz’s symptoms subsided, but the relief was short-lived. She began experiencing random, spontaneous orgasms without any stimulation.

Liz ultimately found a solution with anti-seizure medication, which helps her manage the condition.

I can’t believe it’s 2024, and we’re still figuring out how to get women off like they’ve not been around for centuries – I mean, am I surprised? Nah.

But hey, better late than never.

A study has revealed the best sex position for straight women when it comes to achieving an orgasm and it might actually surprise you.

The investigation was carried out by the private gynecology clinic, New H Medical, in New York, which used an ultrasound scanner to examine clitoral blood flow in five of the world’s most popular positions, IFL Science reports.

The couple who volunteered to take part in the study were described as being a “healthy medical doctor couple [who are] both 32 years old,” engaged in positions such as missionary, face-to-face, and doggy-style positions for approximately 10 minutes per position to see if there was one position that came out on top.

Speaking of the research, Dr. Kimberley Lovie, a research physician in New York who led the study, wrote: “The purported benefits of various coital positions are described in numerous magazines, books, and public forums. However, there is little scientific research that evaluates the association between different coital positions and their ability to produce female orgasm.”

She continued: “The objective was to compare clitoral blood flow before and after coitus in each of the five positions, after a standardized period of time.”

So what did the results show?

Well, turns out missionary with a pillow under the woman’s pelvis is the best position to hit the big O.

“The kneeling/rear entry position produces the least amount of direct clitoral contact, and resulted in a negligible increase in blood flow compared to the face-to-face positions,” Dr. Lovie concluded.

She further explained that for numerous positions, not just missionary, pillows helped stimulate the blow flow for the clitoris.

“Pillows marketed for this intention, often referred to as ‘sex pillows’ or ‘positioning pillows’ are usually firm and wedged shaped, providing more precise and consistent pelvic angulation than conventional bed pillows,” she noted.

According to the Guardian, only approximately 20 percent of women can reach orgasm by penetration alone; the rest of them need some form of clitoral stimulation.

So there we have it.

Get yourself a sex pillow, ladies.
