During orgasm, the muscles in the genital area contract and pulse, I know it’s pelvic floor muscles.. What I don’t understand is WHY they do that during orgasm. I believe it’s a release of tension or what have you… But why do other muscles of the body not contract, pulse, and feel pleasurable to that extent when they experience relief of tension?
In: Biology
The pleasure specifically is thought to be a motivator for women to engage in sex. Without it, sex would be pretty awful for women, getting your insides pounded and such. One of the bits of evidence for this is that females in a species (I believe the study was on cats) were more likely to copulate the closer their clitoris was to their vagina (and therefore more likely to be stimulated during the act).
