Abstract:
Rationale: Aim of this study was to investigate orgasmic behavior of educated Turkish women in two successive surveys done in 1993 and 2003. Methods: Two surveys were realized about the sexual behavior of educated Turkish women in activist and feminist women’s magazines in 1993 (Kadınca magazine, Kadınca Report-KR, N=1534) and in 2003 (Hülya magazine, Hülya Report-HR, N=706). In both, 88% of women were graduates of high school or university (=KR:60.2%; HR:57%).
Results: 1)Percentages of experiencing orgasm: 22.4% in KR and 29% in HR had orgasms always. 2)During an hour of sexual activity, maximum number of orgasms experienced were: 34.8% in KR and 40.6% in HR, only one; 46.3% in KR and 38.0% in HR, 2 to 5 times; 7.9% in KR and 10.8% in HR, 6-10 times; 2.1% in KR and 4.7% in HR, 11-20 times. 3)Vaginal-Clitoral Controversy: 12.9% in KR and 25.0% in HR stated that they experienced vaginal orgasms by means of coitus; 80.6% in KR and 71.5% in HR needed only clitoral stimulation or other. 4)The duration needed for attaining an orgasm after starting love making was: Less than five min., 3.2% in KR and 9.3% in HR; 5-10 min., 28.8% in KR and 35% in HR; 10-30 min., 49.9% in KR and 34.0% in HR. 5)The frequencies of attaining multiple orgasms: More than 5 orgasms, 26.6% in KR and 21.1% in HR; 1-5 orgasms, 25 % in KR and 32.1 % in HR; only one orgasm, 37.9% in KR and 36.7% in HR. 6)The percentages of women who never experienced an orgasm: In both reports it was at the range of 6-14%. Conclusion: The orgasm frequencies were reflecting a similar pattern in KR and HR. We conclude that some educated Turkish women have sexual liberation similar to the Western women, which is correlated with education.
