Sexual Response Cycle

The first chapter opened my eyes to diverse topics about human sexuality in general. My generation has sex almost emotionlessly because of the hookup scene that surrounds us in society. But we have sex until one of the partners has an orgasm. “Our concept of sex has become so male-defined that the single orgasm has become the gold standard for women’s sexual response, and orgasm is often considered “optional” despite many women’s ability have multiple orgasms (Chalker 23).” This concept of sex seems to be

This is Damian form your Monday's & Wednesday's 12:30 pm class , it came to my attention that there seemed to be some problems relating to the test we just took on chapter 2 of the Human Sexuality class. Personally, im under the impression that i took the new exam although it had no timer applied to it and some of the question's apparent responses seem a little contradictional. On this questions for example # 1; "Which of the following statements regarding the desire phase of sexual response is true?" , #2; In which of the following areas would Masters and Johnson's research on sexual response be least helpful?, #3; Which of the following most accurately describes the plateau phase?, the book clearly states that this is

The sexual response cycle is a term referencing the changes that occur within the body as it is becoming aroused (Nevid & Rathus, 2010). This cycle, the sexual response cycle, consists of four phases. Phase one is excitement. Phase two is plateau. Phase three is orgasm. Phase four is resolution. Even though the changes that occur in men’s and women’s bodies differ in each phase, they do have some things in common. So that we may learn and better understand what makes us different and the same, we must first learn the components that make up the sexual response cycle. There are two components and they are vasocongestion and myotonia (Nevid & Rathus,

Muscle tension increase, heart rate quickens, nipples harden, erection of mans penis, lubrication of vagina

Focusing on just natural clarifications of human conduct, the Biological Theory trusts that physiological variables tremendously affect sexual conduct. Scholars regularly take a gander at anomalous hormonal and androgenic levels in the body and cerebrum to depict freak sexual practices as in rising hormones are identified with physical changes that advance sexual excitement, climax, discharge, and other sexual movement. "In spite of the fact that a survey of natural studies indicates clashing results about the relationship between

50.) Male orgasm and ejaculation are not one and the same process, although in most men the two occur simultaneously. Orgasm refers specifically to the pleasurable, rhythmic muscular contractions in the pelvic region and the release of sexual tension. Ejaculation refers to the release of semen that usually accompanies orgasm. Orgasm without ejaculation is not uncommon in boys before puberty. It can also occur is the prostate is diseased or as a side effect of some medications.

In the oral stage, pleasure is received through the mouth. In the anal stage, pleasure is received through the anus. The phallic stage’s erogenous zone is the genitals with masturbation being the highlight. The latency stage is the stage where a child tends to calm down. The last stage, the genital stage, is where the sexual energy is finally focused towards someone of the opposite sex. Before this last stage, sexual energy was pointed at the parent/caregiver of the opposite sex.

There are several myths about the female and male sexual anatomy, physiology and sexual response. I will discuss woman’s menstrual cycle, women breast and male genitals. You can determine when a women menstruating by her bad attitude. I have always felt this was a myth, simply because there could be other reasons for having a bad attitude. However the truth to this myth is that women can experience emotional, mental, and physical change approximately 7-14 days prior to their menstruation. The female body can adjust itself to have the same or close to the same cycle of the women they live with. Yaber (2013) states, “Women who live and work together often develop similarly timed menstrual cycles called menstrual synchrony (p.102). Breast-The

This article has been written by Amy L. Gilliland and was published online in the Springer Science media on March 2009. It is a fascinating article that discusses the phenomenon of female ejaculation. The women in this study explicate their ejaculation fluids and just how this shakes their sexual identities. It is not known the origins of their sexual fluids. Each woman had a different level of stimulation to ejaculate, and it was found to happen individually from orgasm for some womenfolk. The author believed that this was a phenomenon that needed to be researched in more depth; hence, this study supports the fact that female ejaculation is a common experience for many women, and offers different areas for further investigation. The author did not specify the social theory that has being investigated or emerged.

Stopes actively sought to reprimand the misconstrued assumptions of female sexuality as she considered female desire “profound as hunger of food” . She elaborated on this in chapter IV, titled the Fundamental Pulse. Within this chapter Stopes discusses research regarding female acceptability towards sex during the different stages of hormonal and menstrual cycles. This would become what Stopes termed as the ‘Law of Periodicity of Recurrence of

Do you know how you were born? Do you know how you came to be? The reproductive system is the system that made that all possible. Without the reproductive system you wouldn’t have been born. In order to produce offspring, the male and female reproductive systems have to be different. Each system has different parts, problems and care. Each system have different purposes, the male reproductive system’s function is to produce sperm, while the female reproductive system’s function is to produce ova, store ova and house a fertilized egg.

1.The Masters and Johnson model of sexual response has four different phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution

Kaplan’s excitement and orgasm phases are similar to Masters and Johnson’s phases of excitement and orgasm. Masters and Johnson’s model begins with excitement, which is the initial sexual arousal phase. Changes that occur during this phase is erection of the penis, lubrication of the vagina, muscle tension, and an increase of heart rate and blood pressure. (Cosgrove & Ronk, 2014). These changes occur in both models.

Scientists have found that orgasm can be achieved without genital stimulation. They mention how in some cases the brain can trigger an orgasm from different areas of the body. This is quite interesting, and it makes you wonder what can set you

The role of the orgasm in heterosexual relationships is significant in having a satisfying malefemale relationship according to society’s expectations. By using the malefemale binary, as well as exploring the social construction of sex, we can see just how significant the role the orgasm plays in heterosexual relationships. First off, we must understand that orgasms are achieved differently for both males and females.
