Scan spots women faking orgasms

[emad]

By Michelle Roberts
BBC News health reporter in Copenhagen

A simple brain scan can spot whether a woman is faking an orgasm or not, a major fertility conference has heard.

Researchers found that when a woman is faking, a part of the brain under conscious control lights up, while real orgasms occur subconsciously.

The University of Groningen scans also showed important differences between the male and female orgasm.

In women, turning off fear and anxiety is key, while men need to know they will be physically stimulated.

1. so I wonder what telling your woman that the bed is actually

a Binford 2000 Orgasm Detectronic model with Pulsotronic Viberating Whirling Pulanetary Action would do for all that fear and anxiety?

:evilgrin:

3. well, that just gets me all hot

I may need to step away from the computer for a bit.

[sui generis]

5. yes but the blinking color coded indicator on the headboard

would probably just do me in. I wouldn't be able to stop laughing.

Should DU file a patent and sell this to republicans? We'd make a killing, but they would probably outlaw it in the U.S. constitution as bad for the sanctimonious institution of republican marriage.

[bleedingheart]

17. hi back at ya!

I am fine...just trying to work through a bug in some code......which is killing me right now....grrr!!!

2. what I always wondered.. does a man really NOT know she is faking?

scream all you want ladies, but I would imagine the 'physical' response is the key here. How can a man NOT know? If you know what I mean.

8. I agree.

There are definite physical responses that happen in a woman--how can a man NOT know?

[MissMillie]

9. He's not paying attention to her

he's concentrating on his own orgasm.

[Lex]

11. Hence the need for her to fake it in the first place

I guess.

[nini]

14. True.. If he is that focused on himself then he wouldn't notice anyway

Guess I'm very lucky ;)

21. If she's faking...

Who cares? That's her problem.

[nini]

22. no.. it's YOUR problem

I'll assume you're trying to be funny. BUT a woman's orgasm has benefits for a man too.. IF you had ever been with a woman who has experienced it you'd know what I'm talking about and you'd know why you should care. The sensation is pleasing to both partners.

You're missing out too. That is YOUR problem.

6. Do you think these researchers wives know what their researching?

Another tough day at the office.

[flvegan]

7. How do I get picked for these research projects?

I mean, all in the name of science of course.

12. Gee..Maybe that's why the Women I make love to like .....

..to read a book or watch TV while Love-Making. :)

[RedCloud]

13. Whew! Good thing they ignored guys faking it!

15. I am a 25 year old

virgin and I haven't had sex yet. I am one of those that can please myself with my mind only and no external stimulation. There was a study on this type of self pleasure and researchers think it could help women who are having trouble climaxing.

All in all this a very interesting article.

18. never heard of that

before or are you just "pulling my leg"?

[Democracy White]

20. No I saw it on Discovery Channel

about female sexual dysfunction and there was a part about how women are able to "come" with imagination only. They were showing a woman laying in a CT scanner reaching an orgasm.

Frankly, I thought I was the only one that was able to do that, orgasm by fantasy alone but apparently I'm not and I don't know how rare it is.

19. o sweetie, you're lookin' good, and by the way...

...would you mind sticking your head in this box while we get it on? Here, lemme just adjust the monitor....

23. oh rats

since it's a brain scan, we don't really have to give them a barium enema as part of the foreplay, huh?

[brainshrub]

24. Locking.
