Chapter 2
THE NORMAL ORGASM
The first thing I am going to do on this, so to speak,
journey with you is to give you a view of your destination.
I am going to describe an orgasm to you. I am going to
describe it in detail.
We occasionally do this in psychiatry when dealing with a frigidity problem, and sometimes it has astonishing results. I have seen women who, after hearing for the first time a complete description from an authoritative and objective person of what to expect of themselves in the act of love, almost immediately win through to the sensual goal they had been deprived of.
On one occasion a patient of mine, who over a period of months had worked through a rather severe frigidity problem, detailed to her younger sister the wonderful sexual experience she was now able to have. The younger sister had been married only two months and had not once reached sexual climax. She had seriously contemplated consulting a psychiatrist about her "problem." The very night her older sister described true orgasm to her she was able to achieve her own first complete satisfaction with her husband.
