Crying foul

Featured Replies

There are drinking, smoking, obesity, etc forums here on Thaivisa, but no sexology forum, wherefore I am posting this topic here in the Pub forum where we can vent our frustrations.

 

I am crying foul or, politically more correct, discrimination on the basis of gender, because the pioneering scientific research reported in the article mentioned below has been carried out only with females of the human species.

Brain Activity Unique to Orgasm in Women: An fMRI Analysis

Abstract
Background

Although the literature on imaging of regional brain activity during sexual arousal in women and men is extensive and largely consistent, that on orgasm is relatively limited and variable, owing in part to the methodologic challenges posed by variability in latency to orgasm in participants and head movement.

 

Aim

To compare brain activity at orgasm (self- and partner-induced) with that at the onset of genital stimulation, immediately before the onset of orgasm, and immediately after the cessation of orgasm and to upgrade the methodology for obtaining and analyzing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) findings.

All right, further down, the article mentions clitoral stimulation (obvious, because this study was made with women) but for analogous research on men, penile stimulation can obviously be used.

 

I'd love to contribute, but I fail to understand exactly what you are discussing. Is it male orgasm or gender discrimination, or is it that you didn't get to be on the study?

Orgasm serves as a circuit-breaker in the male whereas it serves as a switch on for the female.

Sorry, I disagree. Orgasm isn't a circuit breaker for the male brain - sex is.
