“It’s like driving with the windows down and seat warmers on. But sexual. And a thousand times more intense.”
Real talk: Despite how movies , porn , and Netflix's Sex/Life make it seem, more than 75 percent of people with vaginas need more than penetration to orgasm . And what makes things especially tricky is that not every orgasm results in a huge, earth-shattering climax. Some are calmer , while others make you feel like you've stuck a fork in an outlet. The orgasm you might have in any particular situation can vary based on lots of things including intensity, sensation, situation, excitement, and even possible fears or inhibitions.
Now, with any orgasm, you might experience shaky legs, erect nipples , a tightness in or around your vagina , etc.—but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll happen every single time you orgasm. And your orgasm might actually feel different than your friends' orgasms, so don’t put too much pressure on yourself if you’ve got one vocal pal who brings up how they can orgasm vaginally and squirt when those two things haven’t ever really happened for you. Everyone’s body is different, and so is everyone's orgasm response. All that's to say: Orgasms are confusing.
Luckily, the more we talk about how unrealistic is it for many people to orgasm from penetration alone, the better chance more people will have more orgasms, and the world will simply become a better place. It's science, folks. And whether you’ve already orgasmed twice this morning or never have at all , it's helpful to know what the sensation feels like to a variety of people to better pinpoint your own pleasure. That's why we've asked 54 people to explain what their vaginal and/or clitoral orgasm feels like, so we can all get better at getting some. Take note, Netflix .
“It’s an intense tingling pleasure that starts in my clitoris then spreads (somehow slowly and all at once) through my whole body, down to my toes and fingertips.”—Chelsea S., 30
“Euphoria. Complete joy and pleasure building up until you reach the mind-blowing release of endorphins. Clenching to hold onto the feeling until you finally give in and then the best feeling hits.” -Rebecca B., 24
“Honestly the seconds just before it happens are almost painful. It’s like that drop in your stomach from a roller coaster and then all that tension explodes and shoots up the backs of your legs and everywhere else. Then for a while afterward you kind of just throb and pulse because your heart is beating so hard but you’re also so relaxed.”—Shannon N., 29
“It feels like a complete release but my body tenses. I feel myself contracting but for five seconds my brain goes blank, before I feel myself come back down to earth.”—Helen R., 27
"It's like a pot of water that boils over—a slow build with an eventual overflow of intense pleasure and pure bliss."—Zoey Z., 24
“It depends on what point of the orgasm you’re in. The beginning is exciting. You feel anticipation and pleasure that moves through your body at varying speeds and with varying intensity. In the throes of an orgasm, everything is tight and wound up, heightened but with a euphoric edge. At the completion of it all, it’s akin to the moment at the end of a massage—every nerve-ending is soft, every muscle relaxed. There’s a moment of just pure pleasure and peace.”—Amanda S., 34
“Right before you orgasm, it feels like you just can’t get a door open. Then when you orgasm, it’s like the door is flung open and a huge release or bright white light shines in.”—Reileigh T., 24
"An orgasm feels like you are trying to close the clasp on a necklace with long acrylic nails. It takes a while to get there, you struggle and you may scream, but in the end, it is the most satisfying feeling in the world."—Erin D., 24
“It feels like all of my nerve endings are being shocked by an electrical current that builds into a huge release physically and—if I’m in the right headspace—mentally.”—Christina K., 30
“The best orgasms I’ve had last at least one or two minutes when my partner continues a repetitive motion (or I do, if I’m on top). It feels like a rush of relief after being blocked. Sorta like a kinked water hose. The pressure and desperation for release builds and builds until it’s finally set free.”—Emily A., 26
“It starts in the center of my body and then is like a wave outwards to my fingertips and toes. For those 20 seconds or so, it’s pure bliss. When it’s good, I completely forget to breathe, but I don’t feel out of breath. It’s like nothing else matters in those moments, not even the simple act of breathing.”—Lindsay V., 28
“I’d have to describe it as a volcanic eruption or the Big Bang cartoons we used to see as kids. It’s a release of all of this tension/energy and it’s like your whole body has been trying to break down a brick wall for minutes, hours, days, however long and suddenly the wall just crumbles and you’re standing there out of breath and wanting to collapse and take the best nap of your life.”—Stacey T., 28
"An orgasm feels like a tingly release from all the teasing and sexual heat. I have so much control over my life throughout the day that the climax helps my mind and body relax."—Aimee P., 32
“It feels like a warmth that starts in my lower abdomen. From there it’s a slow burn until it reaches the tips of my toes and I push over the edge. Sometimes the moment right before I’m about to climax feels better than the finish itself, but once I get there my body kind of rides the waves until it dies out.”—Kelsey D., 29
“An orgasm feels like a volcano erupting and ice freezing at the same time. Almost like driving with the windows down and seat warmers on. But sexual. And 1000x more intense.”—Emme R., 29
“For me, an orgasm is a psychological and a physical experience. In my mind, it’s like I’ve been holding my breath and can finally exhale. This exhale is an intimate release that’s warm and comforting and invigorating Physically, I feel all my muscles contracting. When I finally climax my body is refreshed and my muscles, which were tightening throughout arousal, are finally loose.”—Nadège C., 30
“To me, an orgasm feels like really truly like letting go. It’s a rush like, whew , and then any and all tension I had disappears and I'm ready to either take on the day or get the best night of sleep ever.”—Sierra T., 24
“It feels like all the energy centers of my body are activated at once and I can feel an intense tension simultaneously in my brain and my limbs and whole body, sound coming through my throat. It’s a huge release.”—Brittany D.
“For me, an orgasm starts in the peripheral of my body, ie. the tips of my fingers, the inside of my knees, the tips of my toes, the top of my head. These body parts all begin to vibrate and hum with electricity, as the sensation then envelops my core and pulses through my stomach, chest and thighs. Finally the sensation crescendos with a full release of tension, stress and pain, then leaves you feeling as though there are thousands of tiny effervescent bubbles slowly gliding across your skin.”—Kaleah A., 33
“There’s nothing else in the world like it. It’s the overwhelming feeling of what you’d imagine the core of a volcano feels before fully erupting. It’s that sense of indescribable and pure emotion that once released, makes you feel free and high on life.”—Violet O., 32
“My orgasm feels as if I'm a volcano in human form, like I'm slowly heating up and building up various feel-good sensations. When I reach my peak, I erupt and release all of those sensations.” —Mitanette C., 35
“Reaching orgasm is like climbing a tall mountain. I climb and climb, the sensation of pleasure growing and building on itself, until finally I go over the peak and slide joyously, breathlessly to the bottom.”—Ali W., 31
“It feels like an eruption you have no control over. For me, the climax is a lot longer than the actual orgasm. The build up feels like I'm running out of air in a good way, and longing for relief. The last seconds before I finish feels a bit like I'm going to wet myself. Sorry if that sounds gross! But my best orgasms feel that way.”—Roxanne C*., 26
“To me it feels like the release of tension, kind of like if you could cram the relaxing feeling of a massage that works a sore joint into nanoseconds. It’s the intensity of the feeling in such a short period of time that makes it so special.” —Jordan G.*,28
"It feels like your vagina is squeezing and relaxing all at the same time. It's truly a sensation you can't really describe, but I imagine it to be like squeezing a kegel ball and then releasing it." —Ashley N., 34
"This is going to sound a little strange, but bear with me. You know that feeling when you've been holding in your pee for like 20 minutes and it feels almost like a tickling sensation? That's what an orgasm feels like...but more intense." —Michelle A., 21
“It feels like I have an electrical current running directly through my vagina. It’s just this crazy moment where every single cell is screaming Yes! ” — Emily G., 22
“It feels like you’re on a roller coaster and you’re finally at the top, and then you feel that stomach drop. The anticipation and buildup ends, so you just feel a smooth release. It feels cleansing, almost like the warm feeling you get after taking a few deep breaths.” —Jen F., 24
“It feels like crying, sneezing, and laughing all at the same time.” —Katherine L., 22
“I picture it kind of like a waterfall bursting over a cliff when it happens. Even if that does sound a little like peeing. But it’s this intense pressure that eventually gets released, and it feels incredible.” — Suzanne T., 20

The female orgasm is generally regarded as a magical, mysterious thing. It’s tricky to attain. It’s the best feeling on earth. It relies on all kinds of intriguing bits like the G spot and the clitoris.
But what does it actually feel like?
As you might expect, it’s different for different people. But the overall sense is that it’s rather nice.
We asked a bunch of women to describe what exactly an orgasm feels like for them. Here are their answers – some names have been changed as not everyone wants to publicly talk about cumming.
‘An orgasm feels a bit like the nice scratchy tickling feeling when someone strokes the inside of your arm, only way more intense.
‘It tends to build from moderate to really intense, and when you actually come it’s like a powerful rush which slowly subsides.
‘The sensation is closest to getting a really great massage, but with a sharper sensation.’
‘You just forget about everything shite for a moment, and the physical and mental kind of merge and it’s all good. It’s like a wave through your whole body that makes you lowkey high and completely glowy.
‘Basically if you’re wondering if you came you definitely didn’t because you could never mistake the feeling.’
‘I would say what I have felt is akin to finally scratching the itchiest itch.’
‘I think it feels like a massive release, and a way to be out of your own body for about ten seconds (I don’t know if that’s how long they last, it’s probably less than that, right?).
‘I don’t think it feels in any way like a sneeze, BUT the build up and release is similar but much much more satisfying.’
‘It feels like an all-encompassing avalanche.’
‘The best way to describe it is like a very intense, pleasurable sneeze. It’s like a release but because you’re not technically ‘releasing’ anything so it’s hard to explain.
‘On top of that you get a really warm fuzzy feeling throughout your body. A bit like after you have the first few sips of a really good gin and tonic.
‘If it’s a really good one your body kind of shudders and your clit kind of pulses and your cheeks feel hot.’
‘If it’s really intense I hysterically laugh after as the emotions all pour out of me. Or my eyes squeeze shut because I feel like I am going to cry and I can’t open them for a few mins.’
‘Well the feeling after is like when someone jumps out to scare you but then you realise it’s a joke and you feel satisfied that you’re safe. Like a deliciously tingly warm wave.
‘The actual orgasm is like an explosion.’
‘Like that loggers leap at Thorpe Park – Up up up intense intense and then boooooom splash a rush.’
‘Bottom of feet tingle and burn when I am about to release, that’s a constant thing but a lot of orgasms are different depending of how much build up there was or how into it you are feeling etc.’
‘I can feel downstairs squeezing tighter and tighter and tighter and then there’s a sudden burst and a rush through my entire body. it’s like a release, I tingle all over and there’s a pulsing as I orgasm.’
‘The climax feels like when you’re on the descent of a roller coaster, there’s a heartbeat in your groin and then suddenly you orgasm and it’s like jumping head first into a pool of pleasure.’
‘My spine tingles and I feel a massive euphoric feeling over my whole body and sometimes my vision goes blurred.’
‘It starts in my legs and moves up, my heads starts throbbing everything is pulsing I feel like might burst and I’m always a little scared.’
‘It just feels really warm, if that makes sense. Like, the warmth when you tuck yourself into a blanket – just really warm and comforting all over my body.’
‘It’s a release. It’s like you’ve got really tense without noticing, then you hit a threshold and all the tension floods out.’
‘At their best it is absolute euphoria where your entire body is in sync. A warm and intense pressure that builds and builds. If it’s at this level it is the best feeling in the world.’
‘What I imagine the physical embodiment of euphoria would be like.’
‘My description of an orgasm is that it feels like a warm sensation crawling all over your body.’

‘The best way I can describe the physical sensation is: If you were to lie down on a beach and feel the tide coming in, the sea’s just going up your legs, then away, then higher, then away.
‘Imagine the water is just a feeling of pleasure and relaxation. That’s what an orgasm feels like.’
‘It feels differently for every person, of course. Some orgasms feel better than others and they’re not always how they appear in films and TV shows i.e. earth-shatteringly-mind-bogglingly screaming the house down.
‘But, I’d say it’s a release/explosion of built up pleasure and pressure during sex (oral and penetrative) and masturbation.’
‘It feels like a flame down there that gets redder and redder until it melts into white light.
‘The light bursts into a Kaleidoscope of colourful butterflies that fly in waves over your body, singing in a very high tone. After five or six waves the butterflies seem to scatter and leave you breathing heavily.
‘It’s prickly. Not painful though.’
‘An overwhelming sensation which covers the whole body… kind of like stubbing your toe, but without the pain.’
‘Like your limbs have turned to clouds, and your core has turned to honey, and like you’re sinking into a warm bath. No, wait – like you ARE the warm bath. And everyone is welcome in.’
