A few things that scientists and academics are still fiercely debating: how a female orgasm is triggered, what it does and what it’s for. We’re still in a black hole of not knowing very much about the sexual health and mechanisms of half the population. Things are better than they were in the 19th century, when male gynaecologists examined women while standing behind a cloakīut dive any deeper into the science of women’s genitalia, and how they work, and there will be surprises. The orgasm: “A feeling of intense sexual pleasure that happens during sexual activity.” That’s if they get an orgasm in the first place. But if they do, it is unlikely to be because of thrusting. Not because women can’t have multiple orgasms. This scene will be familiar because it has been enacted ever since sex was allowed onscreen. Then perhaps, she will have another and another and another. It will be visible, spectacular, satisfying. Within a minute, usually, the man and woman will have an orgasm at the same time. None of that matters, because the outcome will be the same. Up against a wall, in a bed, in a car, anywhere. There will be a man and a woman and they are having sex.
