And this leads to people conceptualizing female sexual function as engaging in intercourse rather than being sexual responsive. That’s how you have the “Bible” of GYN surgery saying, “sexual function seems satisfactory” after intentionally cutting the innervation to the glans.

“Orgasm may not be important to women.”

“Anorgasmia is clinically irrelevant unless the patient is distressed.”

Women who have trouble with orgasms are often told it’s all in their heads or that they are “normal” because “a lot of women have difficulty.” In reality, the data shows very few women having difficulty when stimulation is sufficient, right?

In the medical literature on female sexual function and dysfunction, the focus is on ability to be penetrated without pain and on the subjective metric of “sexual satisfaction.” The problem is you have women saying that their partners orgasms are more important to their satisfaction than their own.
