Along the lines of what -t said, I was going to post that it appears that they made a logical fallacy-- just because orgasm causes fear and anxiety to go down, does not mean that fear and anxiety must go down for orgasm.

I was under the inpression that orgasm freed women from having to fake it.
But is that what the study tells us? I'm trying to be scientific here. There are women having sex with their heads in PET scans so we can know these things.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. Are they having sex (insert semantic debate here)? Also -- when they were faking orgasm, were they just lying there alone in the hardware and faking? Were they wanking and faking? WHAT?
I can't interpret the study without these details.

I think they should do a study on women who fake orgasm during masturbation.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
does not mean that fear and anxiety must go down for orgasm.
No, but apparently her partner going down does help.

While I was deadly serious. DEADLY SERIOUS!

Maybe they have. As ita points out, we just don't know.
I believe I also read somewhere that they tried to study men's orgasm in the same way, but the "state of excitement" didn't last long enough for the PET scan.

I reread. I sorry.
As ita points out, we just don't know.
But I WANT TO KNOW!
Quick, someone wank and fake it and tell me why.
