Researchers Describe A New Hypothesis About Why The Female Orgasm Exists

"A pair of scientists have a new hypothesisabout why the female orgasm exists: It might have something to do with releasing an egg to be fertilized."

"Scientists have puzzled over, and sometimes even questioned the existence of, a phenomenon that appears to have no physical effect on conception. While a male orgasm is crucial to impregnate a female, it is not obvious how a female orgasm affects whether she is impregnated."

"In fact, Aristotle and Hippocrates both pointed out the female orgasm appears to be an afterthought, at least when it comes to creating offspring."

"The theory would explain the modern reality that women do not experience orgasms as easily or as regularly as men."
