Every day should be orgasm day, but today it actually is. Didn’t know National Orgasm Day was a thing? Well, now you do.
I would say I’ll leave you to celebrate accordingly, but unfortunately that’s not achievable for everyone.
In case you didn’t already know, the orgasm gap still exists. Although men orgasm 95% of the time during partnered sex, this goes down to 65% for women.
But, contrary to what we’ve been told until fairly recently, that’s not because it’s ‘harder’ for people with vulvas to orgasm, or because they don’t want to.
In fact, research commissioned by ethical porn platform FrolicMe finds that 65.3% say orgasm is important to them during sex. Fair!
While orgasm doesn’t always have to be the goal, things can get frustrating pretty quickly if you’re consistently not reaching orgasm – or having it prioritised – with the same partner.
Whether you’re in pursuit of orgasm with a lover or by yourself this orgasm day, I’ve rounded up my favourite tools for reaching orgasm as someone with a vulva.
Namely: sex toys and ethical porn. As a sex writer and podcaster, I’ve tested hundreds of sex toys at this point, and (ahem) visited plenty of erotic platforms in my time – not to mention I constantly speak to the brands and owners trying to boost the orgasm rate for women and represent female fantasies in all their wonderful forms.
Keep reading for my go-tos when I want to know for sure that I’m going to have an orgasm.
