The internet is full of tips for women to have a better time in bed, but look for scientific research into how women orgasm, and you’ll find very little.
According to ABC News, 75 percent of women have never experienced an orgasm from intercourse alone, while a dismal 10 to 15 percent have never climaxed under any circumstances.
The sad truth is that men have way more orgasms than their female sex partners. However, new research into the female orgasm has shed some light…
There are certain sex positions that make a woman orgasm better than others. In fact, there is one that, when used properly, can make her orgasm in a minute or two.

In a recent study of more than 11,000 heterosexual adults in the Czech Republic, participants were asked about the frequency with which they orgasm in 13 different sexual positions.
The most frequently used position among participants was the missionary position (face-to-face, man on top). However, this position was unrelated to orgasm consistency in women. By contrast, the cowgirl position was linked to more consistent orgasms.
But there’s quite a bit of data to suggest that when it comes to actually bringing a woman to orgasm, plain old penis-in-vagina intercourse just isn’t going to do the trick. The reason, according to experts? Not enough clitoral stimulation.
Let’s be clear about this right off the bat: Every vagina is unique, and every woman likes something different in bed, but most women need a combination of penetration and clitoral stimulation to orgasm.
Only one other position was linked to orgasm consistency in this study: the sitting, face-to-face position, in which both partners are sitting upright with the woman on top.
Both the sitting and cowgirl positions afford more clitoral stimulation because her clit gets more direct contact or friction from her partner’s body during intercourse.
Researchers also found that the rear entry or doggystyle position was actually linked to less consistent orgasms in women. 🙁
The key takeaway here is that the sex positions couples most frequently use aren’t the one most likely to make a woman orgasm.
For heterosexual women who find it difficult to reach orgasm consistently through penis-in-vagina intercourse, finding ways to add clitoral stimulation is very important.
Helping a woman reach orgasm during sex can be a rewarding experience for both partners. Keep in mind that every woman is different, and finding what works best for her requires open communication and a willingness to explore together.
As always, different people may prefer different methods or techniques.
