Rollercoasters and brushing teeth… these are the weirdest things ever to cause orgasms
Apparently there's a special type of mushroom in Hawaii which gives pleasure to half of women when they sniff it
IF you think the only way for a woman to orgasm is when she’s between the sheets, it’s time to brush up on your sex facts.
In fact, there are loads of things which can cause a climax and put in this way, you’ll never think of theme park rides in the same way again.
During exercise
Yep, this really is a thing.
It’s most common during workouts which involve the core, so it turns out those sit ups might give you more than just a flat tummy.
Knee raises and leg raises can do the job too, and men aren’t immune either – for them it’s pull ups which might work.
Childbirth
You’ve probably heard this one before, but it’s more common than you think.
If not a full on climax, a lot of women get a pleasurable sensation when they’re having babies.
Just ask Debra Wakefield, who had her very first orgasm when she was giving birth.
Weeing
This has to be one of the oddest ones.
Some people find they get off while they’re urinating, which has to be awkward if you’re in the work bathroom.
Just like with exercise, it’s all about the use of those core muscles.
On a rollercoaster
Don’t believe this one? No problem, just have a look on YouTube where there are loads of women chatting about it happening to them.
It’s all to do with the vibrations from the rides. Still, it’s hard to imagine anyone getting off during a trip on Saw at Thorpe Park.
Sniffing mushrooms
It’s true, but sadly it’s nothing to do with the button versions you usually pick up at Tesco.
There’s a tropical kind found in Hawaii which apparently makes 50 per cent of when orgasm when they smell it. That’s according to the International Journal of Medicinal Mushrooms anyway.
Brushing teeth
If this isn’t cause to actually stick to the recommended two minutes, twice a day of teeth brushing then what is?
All jokes aside, there is a case study involving a woman with epilepsy who found brushing her teeth brought on a seizure which also caused her to orgasm.
Reading
No, this isn’t about those special kind of magazines some men like.
It’s been found that simply reading a particularly moving section of fiction is enough to sort some people out.
Yawning
Another odd one with a medical link.
In the 90s, it was discovered that some people who were taking the anti-depressant clomipramine would orgasm when they yawned.
Apparently it was a side-effect of the medication, which happened to about five per cent of those who took it.
