Well, you know those wild sounds coming from women during sex? They might not be as basic “SEX IS GREAT!” as we want to believe. Jocelyn Wentland tells us about a study (a limited one, but nonetheless) that indicated that women are most vocal when they know they’re not going to get off and to encourage their male partner who is close to orgasm.
Something that isn’t entirely explicit in Wentland’s reporting is whether this vocalization is intentional or subconscious.
