According to American researchers, a woman’s orgasm played as important a role as a man’s orgasm in conceiving a child. This is stated in the scientific journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Today, in some mammal species, ovulation still occurs during sexual intercourse. For example, in cats, rabbits, ferrets. Scientists believe that in this case, female orgasm is necessary to trigger ovulation.
To test this theory, researchers gave female rabbits fluoxetine, which inhibits orgasm. And such women were 30% less likely to experience orgasm.
According to scientists, this proves that female orgasm was initially necessary for reproduction. However, over millions of years of evolution, some mammals have developed a cycle in which ovulation occurs regardless of whether the female experiences orgasm or copulation.
There are other explanations for the existence of the female orgasm. Some scientists believe that female orgasm is an incidental product of male orgasm, while others believe that orgasm increases the chances of fertilization. Some also think that a man’s ability to bring a woman to orgasm is a kind of test of empathy and his ability to be a sensitive father.
