Men can also be multi-orgasmic
A myth has been debunked: the ability to have multiple orgasms is not just a woman's thing.
When it comes to sex, it is common to think that men and women behave and feel very differently.. It is said that they feel aroused by different stimuli, have a different perception of sex or even that men are much more interested in intercourse than women. However, many of these differences, if real, can be explained as a matter of quantity, rather than as part of a clear and distinct separation between the sexes.
Relative, not absolute differences. We know, for example, that both men and women can breastfeed and that it is possible to develop genitalia of the opposite sex when passing through a certain life stage.
Similarly, one of the great bastions of female sexuality is the ability to have multiple orgasms. the ability to have multiple orgasmsbut it seems that it is not as exclusive as is commonly believed. Men can also become multiorgasmic, either spontaneously or after a period of learning.They can also become multiorgasmic, either spontaneously or after a period of learning.
Multiorgasmic men and refractory period
Although it is wrong to say it, the achievement of orgasm can be valued as something defined by its quantity, rather than by its quality. Thus, multiorgasm ceases to be some sort of mythological creature belonging to women and becomes something rather more anodyne: more than one orgasm in a very short period of time..
This ability to experience several bursts of pleasure in succession disappears when the so-called refractory periodThis is the period of time that elapses between an orgasm and the point at which she can have another one. The refractory period has a chemical imprint on the brain, as during this phase a feeling of relaxation and numbness appears, probably related to the release of oxytocin and prolactin, a hormone that overrides the effects of dopamine and therefore lowers sexual arousal.
This means that multi-orgasmic people are those who are able to circumvent or considerably reduce the refractory period, which, if present, acts as a trigger for sexual arousal.which, if present, would act as a temporary wall between one orgasm and the next, so that the accumulated arousal continues to be maintained.
The path of tantra is not the only one.
For some reason, men are more prone to experience persistent refractory periods with high frequency, and this leads to limitations in reaching multiorgasm. However, this propensity is of a rather statistical nature, and today we know that it is perfectly possible for the male refractory period to be reduced..
There are certain techniques based on physical and mental control that can help to make the body adopt alternative dynamics in which orgasm does not lead to the refractory period, and they are applicable to both sexes. Among them, those provided by the tradition of tantric sex, although it is not the only way to achieve this result, since there are people used to having multiple orgasms without having had to follow teachings.
