This one goes out to all the vaginas that aren’t all that enthused by penetration alone.
When it comes to having a vagina and having orgasms, sometimes the struggle is very real.
Especially if you want to orgasm during penetration. It just doesn’t happen all that often… or, ever.

The good news is that you're not alone, and you're not broken, either! Research shows that women are less likely to orgasm during sex than men are.
A recent study in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found that women only orgasm 62.9% of the time with a familiar partner, while men orgasm 85.1% of the time. And women are even less likely to finish during casual sex, with only about 40% saying that they climaxed during their last hookup (compared to 80% of men), according to a study in the American Sociological Review .
There are numerous other studies and stats out there about the female orgasm struggle, and the numbers vary depending on the sample and the decade in which the research occurred. Bottom line, though: If you have a vagina, sex without orgasm may be a frustratingly common reality.

BUT HERE'S THE THING. Not all women have trouble orgasming during sex. Like lesbians, for instance.
According to one study, lesbians reported having more orgasms more often than heterosexual women and bisexual women did. Sure, they might be more familiar with the equipment, but another major reason may be that lesbian partners often don't rely only on penetration for orgasm.
The problem might be that you're just putting too much emphasis on penetration, actually.
For a lot of people, P-in-V sex especially just isn’t that conducive to orgasms. Sorry, penises and dildos.
