Thinking Yourself to Orgasm1 comment

BigThink:
We know that if you think about the clitoris, or think about the G-spot, or think about the cervix that the corresponding part of the brain map for those parts of the body, those become activated. So, one question is whether women who can think themselves to orgasm, do they think their genital activation that the brain representation of the genitalia into activity and does that spread to the other systems that are involved in orgasm, how do they do it? We want to understand how they do it normally and then the question is what if we ask women to think about the genitals more intensively? Or, will they be able to intensify the response in their genital sensory cortex, and will that spread to other parts of the brain, will that facilitate their orgasm? I think it could be very useful in women who say that they don’t experience orgasms; it could be useful in women with spinal cord injury who can’t feel their external genitals. Can they think their brain into greater activation and will that facilitate their orgasm?...

I think you're asking a bit much here. I can sit here imagining I'm playing golf, thus activating many areas of my brain that playing golf would involve, but the level of activity in them will not suffice to make me believe I'm actually playing golf or to experience more than a fraction of the accompanying sensations; for that to happen, I would need either to be a pathological daydreamer or to have some general psychological disorder that prevented me from distinguishing between fantasy and reality. As for women who say they don't have orgasms--cognitive imaging alone is presumably not going to eliminate whatever physical or psychological obstacle is preventing them from doing so. I suppose it might have some limited positive effect, but having an orgasm is not like perfecting a dance move; it is not something you can effectively rehearse in your mind, because it is as much a matter of sensation as consciously motivated action.
