Study Claims Women ‘Three Times More Likely To Be Bisexual’

A study has found that women have a more fluid approach to relationships and sexuality, and therefore more likely to change their sexual preference over time, compared to men.

Scientists in the US followed 5,018 women and 4,191 men through adolescence and into young adulthood for a major study into sexual behaviours.

While the vast majority of men claimed to be 100% homosexual or heterosexual, women have a much more open-minded approach, and base their relationship choices on the personality of a partner rather than their gender.

They found that women were more likely to become bisexual if opportunities arose to explore same-sex relationships, while men were more likely to stick to their originally stated sexual orientation.

Lead researcher Dr Elizabeth McClintock, University of Notre Dame, suggested many women might feel some attraction to both genders, even if they never act on it.

Women with some degree of attraction to both males and females might not be drawn into heterosexuality if they have favourable options in the heterosexual partner market.

Women who are initially successful in partnering with men, as is more traditionally expected, may never explore their attraction to other women.

However, women with the same sexual attractions, but less favourable heterosexual options might have greater opportunity to experiment with same-sex partners.”

10 Secret Facts About Your Vagina

Ok, before we start – the first of the things you should know about your vagina is that there is no right or wrong look. The vulva are the outer lips of your vaginal area and every woman’s vulva is different. You might have plump, curvy vulva or thin, elegant vulva.

Embrace your shape – all vulva are beautiful and unless you are in discomfort or a porn star, there‘s no reason to consider labiaplasty (vaginal rejuvenation surgery).

So what are the essential things you should know about your vagina. It’s not usually a subject we talk about amongst friends, and oft times we are too embarrassed to seek advice from a medical professional. It’s also hard to admit we might be a wee bit ignorant about the most intimate part of our body.

The Female Orgasm, Explained with Science

The female orgasm has been subject to endless research, heated debates and plenty of myths.

Female Orgasm 01

Separating out fact from fiction while dishing up a refresher course, the team over at Wired has uploaded this video to YouTube, using clay models and chemical reactions to explain exactly goes down when a woman has an orgasm.

The vagina is not a passive organ but a highly dynamic structure with an active role in sexual arousal and intercourse. The anatomical relationships and dynamic interactions between the clitoris, urethra, and anterior vaginal wall have led to the concept of a clitourethrovaginal (CUV) complex, defining a variable, multifaceted morphofunctional area that, when properly stimulated during penetration, could induce orgasmic responses.”

Breaking News: Vaginal Orgasms ‘Don’t Exist and The G-spot is a Myth’

There is no such thing as a vaginal or clitoral orgasm and the G-spot is a myth.

Well, that’s the conclusion of a group of researchers who want us to start coining the term ‘female orgasm’.

Why? Well, according to the team, it basically means the whole of a woman’s vagina needs to be stimulated effectively to create an orgasm – Dah! That includes the clitoris, the vestibular bulbs on either side of the vagina, and the pars intermedia – a band that joins the vestibular bulbs.

Their findings – published in the journal Clinical Anatomy – found that most women don’t have orgasms during penetrative sex.  And as a result, women have been labelled with sexual problems that are based on something that doesn’t exist: the vaginal orgasm.

The review did find that the clitoris is the key to all female orgasms, as the clitoris is a women most erogenous zone.

However, it is possible for ‘all’ women to orgasm if all their ‘female erectile’ organs (clitoris, vestibular bulbs, and pars intermedia) are effectively stimulated.

The review, comes after a U.S. study published earlier this year found that the size of a woman’s clitoris can impact their ability to have an orgasm.

In women who have orgasm problems, the clitoris is smaller and located farther from the vagina, the study found.

The researchers said their findings could lead to new treatments for women suffering from anorgasmia, who are unable to have orgasms.
