How often do you have an "O" from vaginal intercourse?

I'm curious if there are others like me, who live through this frustration of never being able to have an orgasm from vaginal intercourse.

Re: How often do you have an "O" from vaginal intercourse?

  • Well, it's nice to know I'm not alone. I just wish it was easier. Sad I had a hard time to begin with, but my husband has always gone to great lengths to make me happy too. Add meds to that and even with other methods I'm having difficultly achieving my goal.

  • I voted for almost always, but it took me 10 years of being sexually active to learn to have them.  I do believe you can train your body to recognize a different kind of stimulation as being extremely pleasurable.  Don't give up!
  •  For myself it all depends on the arousal level for me (a lot of foreplay) and position. I feel bad for hubby because sometimes he thinks it is him. It can feel great but I still won't "O"

  • I've never O'd from vaginal intercourse.  It's all about the foreplay and c stimulation.  I was also DH's first partner, though; he's still a relative newb and/but more than willing to keep trying!

    I have this exact problem. At this point I just accept my meds leave me with no sex drive. I don't especially enjoy sex, essentially it is just exhausting and I just wait for him to finish so I can stop. My current attitude towards sex is "Oh, is that what we're doing, okay"

    I never orgasm from intercourse alone, but DH and I use a small vibe on my clit during sex so that I can.

    I second this as an excellent suggestion.

  • I feel like a FREAK. I have the big O every time and sometimes more than one. I was reading the posts and my jaws just dropped. I am speechless I feel bad for all my fellow nesties.
  • Frequency also makes a difference - I voted for "often," but when we were more consistent, it would have been "almost always."

  • I never have. It will always feel good, but I never even feel like i get close. However, I know a lot of people say it takes quite awhile to be able to do so. I've only been having sex for less than a year...so...we'll see! I'm hoping for the best in the future! I would also suggest a vibrator during sex! That works for me and makes the O soooooooooooooooo much better!

  • Always. Multiple. Without fail. Ever since I became sexually active. I consider myself very lucky but know I am in the minority (at least based on conversations I've had with my gfs).

    Unless I'm exhausted I always do too, and always have from my first partner to my DH.  Maybe I have good angles or something?
