For eons, women have been told how complicated their bodies are, especially sexually. And while it's true that women don't have a point-and-shoot anatomy, new research shows that we have just as much pleasure potential if not more, as men do.
"Unfortunately, wo
men subconsciously place limits on what they think their bodies are capable of," says Laura Berman, Ph.D., Assistant Clinical Professor of Ob-gyn at the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University, United States. "They underestimate the fact of how easily they can be stimulated."
And we would never stand for your underestimating yourself. So we got our hands on some recent groundbreaking studies that debunk the long-standing conventional wisdom about how the female body responds to desire. Then we took this research one step further by explaining how to use it to tap into a new dimension of sheer bedroom bliss.
Maybe this rings a bell: Your guy wants some action and you're stuck in that "whatever" mode. But before you blow him off because you're not into it, consider this: New research proves that your body can be turned on even during those moments when your mind is turned off.
That's because desire and arousal are two separate animals. Desire occurs in the mind (sexual thoughts), while arousal unfolds in the body (feeling hot and lubricating). True, desire usually leads to arousal, but our bodies don't need desire to get to that warm, tingly place.
Problem is, many women think that sex will be a drag if they're not registering any interest in their brains. What to do when he's horned up and you aren't: Have him zone in on your physical hot buttons, says Sari Locker, Ph.D., author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex. "Focus on your body, and give in to the feel of his lips against your neck or the way his hand is brushing up against your back."
And feel free to sharpen your body's sexual antenna-it is searching for stimuli 24/7. The more you indulge your physical senses, the more you'll be primed for sex. "Even if your brain is checked out, your body has a memory of feel-good sensations," says Berman. Another testament that you don't necessarily need desire to relish doing the deed-one recent study found that many women experience heightened arousal when anxious or stressed.
