An
orgasm may feel like:
- a
quick rush of excitement like going down a hill on a roller coaster
- a
soothing feeling like sinking into a hot tub
- an
explosive feeling like firecrackers going off inside of you
|
-
For
all types of orgasms, your muscles begin to tighten and release,
again and again, mostly near your genitals.
-
For
guys, this is usually when semen shoots or spurts out of the
opening in the penis.
-
You
may reach this point very quickly, after a long time, or not
at all.
-
Your
body will do it automatically if it needs to.
-
It's
as if you were holding your breath for a long time until finally
your body forced you to take a much need gasp for air and to
breath heavily, in and out, in and out, until you began to relax.
