Description
A "pleasure gap" exists between men and women, and currently, there is a lack of research regarding orgasm rates for women engaging with male partners compared to female partners. Our study integrates these elements by comparing orgasm rates of females in first time, non-committal sexual encounters, in heterosexual and same-sex partners. This study would examine orgasm rates for women between the age of 18 to 24 and between 25 to 35. We will gather data from 4000 women split equally between groups. We hypothesize that women will have higher rates of orgasms in same gender hookups compared to heterosexual hookups.
