性高潮问题 - 无性高潮

有一些男子在性行为中难以达到性高潮，可是女子中难以达到性高潮的人数更多。当大多数男性较容易地达到性高潮时，许多女性发现要达到这个简单的目标却有困难。有的女性确实达到了性高潮，甚至经常性地达到性高潮，这只是经历多年的性行为之后的结果。其他的女性在阴道性行为中不能达到性高潮，可是用手刺激自己的时候却没有问题。还有的女性最终通过调节享受到了性反应的性兴奋期和平台期，由此找到了自己性满足的模式。尽管如此，许多这样的女性仍然可以从性治疗师那里得到帮助。当然，一些女权主义者甚至于暗示每一个女性都有达到性高潮的潜能，因而他们认为在女性中有通常所谓的“有高潮体验之前的”女人("preorgasmic” woman)。可是，这样的称谓是轻率的，因为毕竟它额外增加了一些仍没有性高潮的女性的负担。这样的称谓就像称呼贫穷的送奶工Tevye“富裕之前的富翁”(pre-rich)。这简直是偏见。当然，某些穷人确实会变得富有，但不是所有的穷人都会成为富人。

Problems of Orgasm - Absence of Orgasm

There are some men who have difficulty reaching orgasm in sexual intercourse, but the problem is much more common among women. While most men easily reach orgasm, many women find it difficult to achieve this simple goal. Some do reach it, even regularly, only after many years of intercourse. Others cannot reach it in vaginal intercourse, but have no problem when stimulated by hand. Still others eventually adjust to enjoying the excitement and plateau phases of their sexual response, thus finding their own version of sexual satisfaction. Still, many of these women can be helped by sex therapy. Indeed, some feminists have gone so far as to imply that every woman can potentially reach orgasm and therefore have generally spoken of "preorgasmic” women. However, this is unwise, because it puts an additional burden on some women, who remain anorgasmic after all. It is like calling the poor milkman Tevye "pre-rich". It is simply unfair. Some poor people do become rich, but not all.
