A concerning new study
conducted by two Canadian universities has unearthed the fact that women
are increasingly faking orgasms as a means to stop sex they don't want
to endure.
While it's
always been a commonly known thing that women might fake an orgasm to
make a partner feel better, this is a worrying new angle on it. Because
although researchers clarified that none of the women who were assessed
in the study ever used the words "rape" or "coercion" to describe the
sex they so desperately wanted to get out of, the actual sex they
recounted could well be characterised as one or both of those things.
Because
ultimately what these women were describing was a need to end the sex
they didn't want to be having, and it's a reflection on how
uncomfortable the women felt with the partners in question that they
couldn't simply ask them to stop. They had to resort to faking a climax
for it to come to a more seemingly natural end.
