Maui and Hester have been a couple for three years and started seeing me because they did not always seem to understand each other. The communication didn’t run smoothly, causing unnecessary fights. By now things have improved and they laughingly tell me how happy they are with each other. “We actually have a great time together, sexually as well. Since I’ve been with Maui I seriously don’t know what hit me,” Hester begins as she rubs her girlfriend’s leg.
“In my previous relationship, with Ton, I really wasn’t satisfied. During sex with him, I never came. But now we both always orgasm,” she says beaming. Maui also begins to laugh. I explain that in heterosexual partner sex, men have orgasms much more often than women. This orgasm gap occurs partly because heterosexual sex is mostly focused on penetration and most women do not climax that way. Because lesbian partner sex often focuses more on clitoral stimulation, women then cum much more often.
“Well, that’s true,” Maui responds. “I’ve never been with a man, so I don’t know anything about that. But in my previous relationships with women, there was always a lot of attention to each other’s pleasure. And it’s the same now, with Hester… We take our time and always make sure we both enjoy ourselves.” She looks at her girlfriend for a moment.
