Did He Or Didn't He?
Simply Her Singapore|December 2016

Fake an orgasm, that is. Yes it’s not just women who pretend the sex was amazing.Here’s what to do if your man has trouble getting to the finish line.

Did He Or Didn't He?

When Sheryl* discovered that her hubby faked his orgasm one night, she was both hurt and shocked.

“Of course I was offended. I thought he wasn’t attracted to me anymore,” says the 40-year-old business development manager. “I was also surprised and confused because I always thought that men have no trouble achieving orgasm. I mean, isn’t climaxing the whole point of sex for a guy?”

Sheryl’s problem is not uncommon. According to US-based sex therapist Vanessa Marin, women aren’t the only ones who fake sexual satisfaction. More men have difficulty reaching orgasm than you’d think, and they may lie to their partner out of embarrassment.

Some men even experience something called a delayed orgasm, where they may take at least half an hour to ejaculate – so if you’re used to your man climaxing within just a few minutes, his delayed orgasm can also be hurtful and puzzling. Men may also fake it if they feel themselves starting to get flacid for whatever reason and just want the sexual encounter to be over.

HE FAKED IT – BUT IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT
