Blended Orgasms

‘Blended’ is a style of orgasm that combines more than one type of orgasm to create one super orgasm! More frequently this has been described as a combination of clitoral and G-spot orgasms, but it can be a combination of any type of orgasm, and anyone can experience them. It can mean a mixture of ejaculatory and prostate orgasms, an A-spot and clitoral orgasm, a nipple and G-spot orgasm… the combinations are only as creative as your imagination.

Combining sensations from multiple points of pleasure can create an overwhelming, full-bodied experience. If you want to experiment with achieving this style of orgasm, your instructions are simple: more, more, more! Indulge in your senses, get playful, explore your body and get in tune with where the pleasure takes you. Your next steps depend on what your targets are. If you want to combine clitoral and G-spot stimulation, try a rabbit style vibrator or mix penetration with external stimulation. If you want to combine penis and prostate stimulation, keep a butt plug inserted while stroking yourself. Once you’ve settled on your combination, concentrate on stimulating those areas simultaneously and building that pleasure larger and larger like you would for a regular orgasm.

Ways to achieve a blended orgasm are:

  • combine clitoral and G-spot stimulation with a rabbit-style vibrator or penetration and external stimulation at the same time
  • combine penis and prostate stimulation with a butt plug and a stroking toy
  • combine anal stimulation and G-spot stimulation with double penetration via partners or toys
  • combine nipple stimulation and clitoral stimulation with an external full-body massage or with suction toys placed on the nipples and the clitoris

Forced Orgasms

Forced orgasms are a style of orgasm that is consensually given from a Dominant partner to a submissive partner in a BDSM scenario. Ways of playing this out can look different depending on the scene and the interests of the participants playing, and it doesn’t always need to involve full Dom/sub roleplay, but power dynamics are usually involved. It can consist of a sub being tied up and stimulated by a Dom with a powerful vibrator, like the Magic Wand, for example. Or simply continuing to pleasure a partner orally past the point of orgasm when they’re hypersensitive to stimulation.

It’s important to note that the forced orgasms we’re talking about here are consensual. There is such a thing as experiencing an orgasm during an assault, and some would describe this as a forced orgasm. That is not what we’re discussing here. That is sexual assault and it can be incredibly disempowering, confusing and traumatic for the person experiencing it.

Ways to experience a consensual forced orgasm include:

  • using a powerful vibrator on a submissive partner
  • forcing a partner to have orgasms one after another without a break in between
  • incorporating roleplay into your scene to heighten arousal
  • explore your partner’s body to see where they’re more sensitive and play off those sensitivities (with consent, of course)
  • always use a safe word!

Edged Orgasms

Edging is a sexual practice that’s recently gained more popularity as a way to make orgasms more intense. It involves bringing yourself or a partner right to the point of orgasm, then stopping stimulation altogether, preventing release and keeping yourself/your partner right on the edge, hence the name. Fun fact: edging is actually a treatment for premature ejaculation that’s more than half a century old and was originally dubbed the ‘stop and start’ method, introduced to help folks last longer during sex.

There are many ways to experiment with edging, and they depend on personal preference and how your body reacts to pleasure. Everyone experiences orgasms differently, but typically the same four stages are involved:

  1. Excitement – the initial arousal stage where blood starts flowing to the genitals.
  2. Plateau – everything from the excitement stage builds up to this moment. The end of this point is where initiating edging would come in.
  3. Orgasm – the plateau spills over into a series of muscle contractions and nerve responses, resulting in a feeling of ecstasy.
  4. Resolution – the come down. All your vitals return to their normal state. This is also where the refractory period begins, where it’s not possible to get aroused again temporarily.

Edging should happen between the Plateau and the Orgasm stages. Once you feel like you’re about to reach that point of no return, stop all forms of stimulation altogether for about 30 seconds. You’ll see that your body comes back down slightly from a very high point of arousal, but doesn’t come down all the way. Restart stimulation at this point, and keep repeating this until you’re ready to experience that overwhelming orgasm you’ve been patiently building up.

Edging can be:

  • experienced solo or with a partner
  • done to increase the intensity of orgasm
  • incorporated into BDSM play scenarios
  • done with or without toys

Some items you can use to make edging more exciting are sensory tools like ticklers and pinwheels, blindfolds, vibrators and cock rings.

Hands-Free Orgasms

Any orgasm that you experience without using your hands is considered a hands-free orgasm. This can include being stimulated via sex toys, grinding into pillows or over clothes, using water via a portable showerhead, doing Kegels and other muscle clenching techniques, etc. Some people can even have orgasms just by thinking about something that arouses them! How lucky are they?

The key to attempting a hands-free orgasm is to get to know your body and its pleasure points very well. You want to know what easily arouses you without direct stimulation. Maybe you really love dirty talk—try listening to some audio erotica or having phone sex with a partner and focus on your breathing, then see if you can get yourself there without touching. The process of the hands-free orgasm is all about finding what works for you and really indulging in it, and of course this looks different for everyone.

Here are some tips for experiencing hands-free orgasms

  • Take your time and be patient, especially if this is new to you. You probably won’t be able to achieve this type of orgasm within 5 short minutes, so make sure you set aside some time and don’t be so hard on yourself during the process.
  • Listen to your body. Where is it telling you to focus your attention? Try some intentional breathing and breathe into that part of your body.
  • Gravitate towards what you think will work. If external stimulation feels good to you, try humping and grinding on a toy, a pillow or against a partner. If internal stimulation feels good to you, try an insertable toy that you can control with a remote, or simply leave a vibrating toy inserted and concentrate on the vibrations your body is feeling.
  • Do Kegel exercises and match them up to your breathing. Repetitively clenching and releasing the pelvic floor muscles can stimulate the clitoris and the penis on its own without you needing to use your hands at all.

Simultaneous Orgasms

Simultaneous orgasms are simply orgasms that more than one person is experiencing at the same time, where everyone reaches climax together. They can be experienced during mutual masturbation, during penetrative sex and even between long distance couples with app-capable vibrators. This type of orgasm is all about bringing people closer together, deeply synchronizing their pleasure with one another. Anyone can experience these types of orgasms, it just takes more than one person!

Ways to experience simultaneous orgasms include:

  • Syncing up your pleasure. If one person is further along in the arousal stage, they should pull back to match their partner. Communication is key to let your partner know where you’re at.
  • Masturbating together.
  • Using Bluetooth-enabled vibrators if you’re playing together but can’t be in the same room. This way, each of you can control the other person’s toy and literally come together.
  • Decentering penetration. Many people, especially people with vaginas, can’t orgasm from penetration alone. Try 69ing (performing oral simultaneously), humping/grinding, or incorporating an external vibrator for clitoral stimulation during penetration.
  • Not focusing on it. You can unintentionally put a lot of pressure on yourself and your partner if you’re thinking too much about it. Just relax! If it doesn’t work the first time, you can always try again.

Multiple Orgasms

Multiple orgasms is another style of orgasm that anyone regardless of anatomy and gender can experience. Multiple orgasms generally refers to having more than one orgasm in a single session. They can be accomplished solo or with a partner and they can occur in quick succession or be really spaced out.

Having multiple orgasms looks different for everyone. Some people can have one right after the other, some people experience a refractory period where they need to build arousal back up again. For penis owners, multiple orgasms are possible but not all of them may be ejaculatory.

Some tips on experiencing multiple orgasms include:

  • Relaxing. You’re in this for the long haul, so take your time exploring and make sure you’re completely relaxed.
  • Do some breathwork. Match your breathing with your partner. When you feel your breath quickening during the plateau phase, consciously slow down your breathing to feel the orgasm deeper. Breathe through the orgasm and see if you can keep going right into another one.
  • If it hurts so good, keep going. If it hurts so bad, stop. After orgasming, many people experience high enough sensitivity that it almost hurts to continue. Challenge yourself to push past that feeling for a bit and see how your body responds. If you don’t like it, stop! Use that refractory time to focus on your partner instead. If you do like it, you may be able to have another orgasm right away.
  • Use toys. Many people love using powerful vibrators like wand massagers to achieve multiple orgasms. Incorporating toys and tools that stimulate various parts of the body (anal toysnipple clamps) can help spread out the pleasure and keep overstimulation from tipping into painful territory.
