In an effort to break the female sexuality misconceptions, Satisfyer, as the world-leading sexual wellness brand, is calling upon women across the world to own their pleasure and join the conversation about female orgasms this International Women’s Day.

Are you coming?

Orgasms are known to have multiple benefits for female health, as they release oxytocin to relieve anxiety, improve your mood and boost your immunity. Regular orgasms help regulate your menstrual cycle and to alleviate the experience of cramping pains. Unfortunately, these health-boosting benefits are achieved by a lucky few, as only 39% of cis-gender women regularly orgasm during sex (compared to 91% of men)1, and only 18% vagina-owners orgasm from penetration alone2.

Social pressure and orgasm-related anxiety also play their part in the pleasure gap3. Just have a look at a couple of common misconceptions and biases, and think of other sexual stereotypes that are there in the society and (potentially) our minds, that needs to be addressed:

“No” means maybe “No”.
Female desire is not appropriate to discuss.
For women, sex is all about reproduction whatever they want.
Prioritizing female pleasure is selfish necessary.
Women who know their bodies are sluts educated.
Sex is intercourse a wide range of sexual activities people engage in.
Masturbation makes you feel guilty your body. Don’t touch yourself. 

Megwyn White, Director of Education at Satisfyer and Certified Clinical Sexologist highlights the importance of self-discovery for breaking the bias surrounding female sexuality:

“There’s a common misconception that pleasure always comes from the outside, in the form of a partner. Masturbation, however, teaches us that we are ultimately responsible for our pleasure, and that’s a good thing. There will naturally be times that we find ourselves alone, which is why taking pleasure into our own hands is so important.

Every time you masturbate you have the potential to make new discoveries and deepen your relationship with owning your sexuality and releasing any stigmas and shame. Shame and stigma only function to stifle our sexual potential.”

Get “Satisfyed”

Human-centered tech supported by certified clinical sexologist and extensive research to make orgasm a “sure thing”​, Satisfyer suggests trying these four steps to own your pleasure: 

  1. No more faking orgasms. Let’s just face it, as a first step and stop, as it is detrimental for womankind. Instead of trying to protect your partner’s feelings and ego, acknowledge your own feelings, and start an open conversation about your sexual needs and desires.
  2. Understand female anatomy and prioritize female pleasure.

Get familiar with the well-known and the not-so-well-known erogenous zones of the human body. All worth exploring with vibrations, pressure, soft-touch – get creative and see what feels good.

  1. Take responsibility for your own pleasure.

Take some time alone and connect with your body, exploring your own ways of pleasure. Megwyn White suggests a couple of questions that could facilitate the journey of self-discovery:

“First, determine what type of sensations you prefer, and which part of your body do you enjoy being touched? Do you like clitoral stimulation, or do you need more indirect clitoral touch? Do you like G-spot massage or dual stimulation of the clitoris and G-spot? Once you determine what you like then focus on trying a pleasure product that targets that particular area. Once you know what you want and how you want it, you could also try and transfer your self-pleasure techniques to sex with someone else.”

  1. Don’t keep it to yourself, join the conversation.

When you’re ready, talk to others about female pleasure, ask questions and share your experience. It could be your partner, close friends, doctor, or followers on Instagram, just make this step out of the silence and speak louder for the female sexual empowerment.

Satisfyer encourages all women to participate in an ever-growing global community and brand edutainment and start the journey of self-exploration by giving away limited free samples (for more information follow @satisfyercom).

To facilitate a journey of self-discovery and experience breath-taking sexual pleasures that never stop, Satisfyer recommends:

Enjoy simultaneous stimulation of the G-spot and clitoris with the vibrations and air-pulse features of the Satisfyer Sunray. The app-controlled silicone rabbit has a flexible joint that easily adapts to your anatomy.

With 3 power motors, the Double Flex gives equal, stimulating attention to the G-spot, clitoris and outer labia. Thanks to the silicone flex technology, the device is especially comfortable – while still providing exciting vibrations via the app.

Enjoy extra deep stimulation like never before with the Satisfyer A-Mazing 1! This A-spot vibrator has a curved, ergonomic shape and a narrow, flexible tip that hones in on your A-spot to pamper it. By stimulating your A-spot, which lies hidden behind the G-spot, a whole new world of intense climaxes and sensations opens up to you.

This award-winning Love Triangle combines Satisfyer’s air-pulse technology with deep vibrations to create simultaneous stimulation. Its sleek design features smooth surfaces, rounded edges and rose gold touches, offering a visual appeal. Designed with a practical cap, the Love Triangle always ensures hygienic and discreet storage, even on the go.

Satisfyer’s latest panty vibrator, Little Secret, is ergonomically designed and attaches comfortably to the panty for direct stimulation. Users can control via its remote to intensify the settings, or it can be controlled remotely via the Satisfyer Connect app. 

With Satisfyer’s latest heat-tech innovation, Hot Lover heats up to 104 degrees to provide added stimulation for greater pleasure and a more realistic experience. The ergonomically curved tip stimulates the G-spot while the second motor stimulates the clitoris for an increased ability to orgasm.
