Q: How common is the female orgasm, and how can I help my girlfriend to achieve it?
A: The female orgasm is not uncommon and can be reached by anyone. For women climax is both a physical and emotional release. One way to reach orgasm is to let go of control and let your mind and body feel the sensations and emotions that come with climax. The best method to help your girlfriend to reach orgasm is to create a comfortable and romantic environment, and to take things slow. First you want to get her aroused by kissing, touching, and hugging. The key to the female orgasm is the clitoris, the bulb on the exterior of the vagina. The clitoris, like the penis, has a concentration of nerve endings which are the key to reaching climax. This highly sensitive area must be stimulated if she is going to reach orgasm. Ask her how she likes to be touched. Let her be the boss of your sex sessions, and pay close attention to how she stimulates herself. Ask her what she wants you to do to her, and which sexual positions or caresses feel the best for her. Paying close attention to your partner and reading her responses to your touch will allow you to pleasure her in new ways, and will deepen the connection between you.

Q: I am 19 years old. I know I may be young but everyone needs love. I just feel that it is impossible for me to find love. All I have been running into are jerks. I think maybe I fall too fast for the game, and I get played. But I believe that I am a nice person with a great personality. I'm lonely and lost. I just want to share part of me with someone who is willing to do the same, but I am discouraged that I will never find that. Can you help me?
A: Everyone should have love in their life, but you need to be aware of when you are coming from a place of need or lack. When you approach the world with this great need, you ignore the warning signs and red flags that may appear along the way, and simply take what ever you can get in order to fill that need. This is what drives people to fall into relationships that do not work for them, and something is telling me that you may not ready to be in a relationship. Take the time now to learn who you are, and what you want from a relationship. Be specific about what kind of partner will work best with you and for you. What are the nagging needs that you are trying to fill with the love of someone else? This is the time to figure out how to fill those needs by looking within you, not outside of yourself. You must first know yourself and love yourself, so you can decide who you want to give your love to, and so you can see who is ready to love you.

Sexy Lingerie for Love
- Sexy Lingerie for Love
The Sexpot
Sexpots love to be the center of attention especially in the boudoir where their naughty attitudes and risque lingerie go hand in hand. Their undergarments have a tendency of revealing more skin and less fabric. Shop for these friskykittens at Agent Provocateur, a lingerie boutique made especially for your sexy gal or guy.

The Fashionista/o
Looking good and feeling good extends to the fashionista's knickers. They care very little about comfort, and ease is not readily found in their vocab. They are however, concerned with the look of their lingerie. The fashionista loves trendy undergarments that will not only compliment their outer garments but will also match the mood they are in that day. Shop for your fickle fashion girl or guy at Henri Bendel. (Photo: Donn Thompson, Getty Images) - Sexy Lingerie for Love

Little use of lace and extracted extras are perfect lingerie options for our uncomplicated Simpletons. Shop at Eres for streamlined lingerie. (Photo: Corbis) - Sexy Lingerie for Love
The Avant Garde
For the Avant Garde, their lingerie is distinctive from common bra/panty sets and boxers or briefs. With the use of crystals or beading and asymmetrical cuts the Avant Garde wants to own lingerie that is different and they want to be indifferent to their different lingerie. They care only for the unconventional look anything else would simply be passe. Shop at Lingerie on Lex. (Photo: Getty Images) - Sexy Lingerie for Love
The Intellectual
The intellectual adores undergarments that are almost as smart as they are. Their lingerie must have a clever structural design and fit their shape perfectly, as well as serve a specific purpose of holding, smoothing or exaggerating parts of the body. Shop for your smart ass at Catriona MacKechnie. (Photo: Getty Images) - Sexy Lingerie for Love
The Artist

The Female Orgasm? How did women get their own version of pleasure? Sure our parts are different, but the game is the same. Listen to any Old school record and it will tell you how to do it. Turn off the lights all night long. Take you time until you reach a higher ground. Personally, I think an orgasm is about communication and unselfishness. Miss Jackson has it right. What have you done for me lately? You both bring something special to the Humpty dance. Oh I went there, without saying it. You've got to understand the words.

I have no problems with ORGASIMS when being intimate with my long-time 8 year relationship with my boyfriend! My boyfriend knows what, where, and how to get me arouse easily. I have not one, but MULTIPLE ORGASIMS. I'm not trying to brag, I'm just keeping it real! By me having these multiple orgasms all the time, there is an added BONUS! The SUPRISE is, I get the WHOLE SHEETS WET. I feel that I have this gift and my boyfriend ENJOYS EVERY MINUTE! HE and MYSELF ARE PLEASED, SATISFIED AND NEVER HAD ANY COMPLAINTS!
To answer the question above;
"Which type of women are you? I am the "SEX POT"! I love to dress up in STELLETOES, HIGH THIGH STOCKINGS, HIGH-HEEL BOOTS, GARTERS, THE WHOLE NINE! I love to PERFORM and DANCE FOR MY MAN with a STRIP TEASE and go from there! We both always have something to give and come up with different things to keep the "FIRE" in our relationship!
I believe, that all women can have Orgasms. Their are things that woman can do first to arouse themselves and their are things that their boyfriend can try to help to get their women get to that point. You both just got to work at it, don't give up and get frustrated!

Satisfying and electrifying sex, including explosive orgasms start with the largest sexual organ you have. Your brain.
Some of the best intimate moments I've shared w/my husband started somewhere other than the bedroom. Maybe he started our Saturday by cooking breakfast while allowing me to sleep in, or by watching a
girlie film w/me w/out griping about it or maybe offering to give me a back massage, while lightly kissing that spot on the back of my neck (you know - the one that makes you quiver) before a shower. Those are all relatively small things that may not appear to be much, but it's simply
called foreplay. Once a woman is happy anything can, and most likely will happen...including her ability to reach her highest sexual peak.
Men are simple creatures and most of the time are led by ego-stroking and the ultimate in visuals. Flirting w/him and assuring him he's the best in every way, coupled w/what he sees as the sexiest in bedroom attire, will have him desiring to do whatever it is you want or need.
If I had to pick what type of woman I am, I'd have to say all of them, at some point or another. It just depends on what the theme is that day.

Forget that nonsense of friends before lovers. You might not become lovers if you take on that path. Problem is is that women don't want to be viewed as ho's if they give it up too soon so they tense up during these intimate moments which makes it difficult for them to orgasm. When they're relax with a special man, they cum like a flowing river...Baby I'm A Star

I just need a freaking divorce. I used to feel and look like the women in the lingerie photos. The key for me is to not let the "relationship" get too familiar. I am one of those that likes a lot to remain a mystery, so that S&*t ain't for boring married men that totally change to old a$$ stinking farts after marriage.
The game is cool, you just have to know how to play it. And I think its time I got back to it cause this marriage mess is for other folks...

Men and women are not wired the same, that's no secret. There is a direct line between a womens heart and her vagina, (aka-love canal). If she is feeling good about herself and your relationship the river will flow. Explore her and try new things, ask her what she like and go for it. If she's not reaching her orgasm try a different techniqe, but never throw in the towel.

I seriously think that women have to learn their men before judging the fact that we don`t understand how to get that special noyice if you know what i mean. If more women were to think about the whole break up to make up concept its all screwed up. They like to get theirs get you mad so that they don`t have to fufill their end of the bargin. still with me here? then they expect men to just arrise to the occassion because they want it no no no leprechaun all wrong words of the wise " Stop teasing without pleasing " it will kill your partners sex drive beleive me been there done that.
