5 Ridiculous Myths About Female Sexuality That Need To Be Tossed Outta The Window

While women have always been conditioned to be coy about sex, we think it’s about damn time they express their needs loud and clear! The world needs to accept the fact that women too enjoy sex and can talk about it openly. We still hear several myths about female sexuality that really need to be busted. 

A large part of the population still believes that women are wired for monogamy, while men are primed to be promiscuous. It is high time we accept the fact that women too like to have fun. In fact, as a woman, you need to be aware of your sexual desires and you should be loud and clear about what exactly you expect. Myths about female sexuality can affect sexual satisfaction. But fret not, we are here to toss them outta the window! 

Myth #1 All Women Orgasm From Vaginal Intercourse

It is upsetting that this is a myth that still needs to be busted. While vaginal intercourse can be pleasurable, according to experts, most women primarily experience orgasms through clitoral stimulation. It’s not that penetration doesn’t cause orgasms, but stimulation of the clitoris has proven to be the main source of orgasm for women. Girl, don’t be shy to explore your body. If you tell your partner exactly what you like, they can do a better job at satisfying you.

Myth #2 Women Do Not Want Sex As Much As Men Do 

This is probably the most common myth that you would’ve heard. Generalising women in any way is ridiculous, but this is just plain judgemental. Studies have shown that women want sex just as much as men, but are often hesitant to express their desires due to the fear of being “slut-shamed”. Women even wonder if there is something wrong with them simply cause they have a healthy sex drive. There’s nothing wrong with having a desire to satisfy yourself. You deserve it, and you should attain it. 

Myth #3 Women Never Masturbate

We cannot believe this myth still exists. Just like men, women too have needs that cannot always be fulfilled with vaginal penetration. In fact, there is a wide range of sex toys for women to choose from. Who needs a partner, when you can have multiple sex toys that may do a better job? Boy, bye. 

Myth #4 Women Get Emotionally Attached To Their Sexual Partner 

Well, sex is not the way to a woman’s heart and it’s high time people know that. Women are very much capable of having casual sex without getting attached. While we love an emotional connection in bed with the man we love, there’s nothing wrong with single women indulging in a one-night stand or a fling without wanting more. 

Myth #5 Women Do Not Care About Orgasms 

This is a pretty selfish myth that needs to be tossed out. Yes, it is difficult for most women to achieve an orgasm through penetration alone, but there are multiple other ways to get one. Adding some spice with foreplay and sex toys is definitely going to help. Trust us, it’s going to be worth it.
