What does an orgasm feel like? the guide on cumming together

When you first start to get sexually active, it can be hard to figure out what you’re actually doing. Even this case of trying to figure out whether you’ve had an orgasm can be difficult. Most people have wondered what an orgasm feels like to the opposite sex. In fact, many women aren’t actually sure if they’ve ever had an orgasm themselves.

So, what does an orgasm feel like? It’s not actually that easy to figure out. Let’s take a look at the most common questions about orgasmic sensations.

What does a female orgasm feel like?

Women can have up to 9 different types of orgasms, based on the type of stimulation that they receive. Many have their own unique sensations. Here’s what you need to know about what women experience…

  • Most types of orgasms, including G-spot, penetrative, and clitoral, tend to feel like a shockwave that starts in her private areas. This is often likened to a “very pleasurable sneeze” feeling that emanates from her privates. 
  • Certain types of orgasms, such as cervical orgasms and squirting orgasms, can feel painful. Many women have bodies that involve seriously sensitive nerve endings. When massaged heavily, women can have an orgasm that’s so strong that it’s actually painful. 
  • Some orgasms can feel like pulsating waves or spasms that go through her body. This depends on the intensity of the orgasm. 
  • Every woman has a slightly different experience when it comes to an orgasm. It’s never safe to assume that you know what a female orgasm feels like.
  • Can a man feel when a woman orgasms?

    Yes, a man can occasionally feel when his female partner orgasms. However, that’s not always the case. It depends on the woman, her musculature, as well as the type of orgasm she has.

    What does a male orgasm feel like?

    A male orgasm tends to have more of a buildup than women’s orgasms—at least from anecdotal evidence. Male orgasms also tend to be a lot faster when they happen, often with a couple of “aftershocks” once the main event has ended. 

    A lot of men note that they feel a serious buildup of warmth and pressure right before they ejaculate—not unlike what women may feel when they need to pee. That sensation usually means they can’t stop the ejaculation portion of an orgasm from happening. 

    Can a man orgasm without ejaculating?

    Contrary to popular belief, a man doesn’t always ejaculate when he orgasms. Certain men may not ejaculate often. In some cases, practicing tantric sex or certain ejaculation delay techniques can make this fairly commonplace.

    On a similar note, it’s possible for a man to ejaculate without orgasming. This can occur when he’s just mindlessly masturbating without actually being fully aroused. In some cases, it can also be a reflex that happens through prostate massage.

    How to tell if your partner had an orgasm

    So, now that you know what an orgasm feels like for both sexes, it’s time to talk about figuring out if the person you slept with had fun. The good news is that the clues remain fairly similar for both men and women. These clues below suggest you gave your partner a really fun time:

  • You hear that classic orgasm moan. Most people will let out a moan (or at least of soft grunt of relief) when they finally cross the finish line. While being vocal during sex doesn’t always guarantee they had an orgasm, it is a good sign.
  • Your partner started to thrust their hips and spasm unrhythmically. Does it seem like your partner’s hips decided to carry on a life of their own? Those hips don’t lie. They’re probably about to climax or are actually in the middle of it. 
  • There’s an ejaculate present. This is a much more reliable sign with men than women, but it’s still the more widely-recognized sign that you may see in the bedroom. 
  • If you’re penetrating a woman, you might feel her vaginal walls spasm. Many people describe it as a squeezing feeling around their fingers or members, but it can also feel more like a twitch. 
  • If you are being penetrated by a man, you may feel his member twitch or pulsate when he’s climaxing. Most men will have some kind of movement there, though it’s not always easy to feel. 
  • Your partner says they had an orgasm. Obviously, not all people are going to be truthful about this, but if you trust your partner, to be honest, then it’s safe to say that this is a good indication they had a Big O. 
  • Have a hard time getting your rocks off?
