Heterosexual men were most likely to say they usually-always orgasmed when sexually intimate (95%), followed by gay men (89%), bisexual men (88%), lesbian women (86%), bisexual women (66%), and heterosexual women (65%). We analyzed a large US sample of adults (N = 52,588) who identified as heterosexual men (n = 26,032), gay men (n = 452), bisexual men (n = 550), lesbian women (n = 340), bisexual women (n = 1112), and heterosexual women (n = 24,102). We examined how over 30 different traits or behaviors were associated with frequency of orgasm when sexually intimate during the past month. Little is known, however, about sexual orientation differences in orgasm frequency.
There is a notable gap between heterosexual men and women in frequency of orgasm during sex.
