Study reveals worst thing men do during sex

We've all had that 'I can't believe they did that' sexual encounter, but now science has revealed the top thing guys do - but should never do - in the bedroom.

A US research paper titled 'Do Women's Orgasms Function as a Masculinity Achievement for Men?' looked to how men see themselves in terms of helping a woman orgasm.

The study surveyed 810 men and saw them imagining a scenario “where they imagined that an attractive woman either did or did not orgasm during a sexual encounter with them”.

The study found that when men did help their partner hit that sweet spot, some reported a sense of achievement, not because they were focused on their lady friend’s pleasure, but because they saw a woman’s orgasm as a reinforcement of their masculinity.

“Overall, it appears that men may be more concerned about their role in women’s pleasure than they are about women’s pleasure itself,” explains the study.

Typical.

The study then goes on to claim that it was more of an issue with 'high stress' men than 'low stress' ones.

"For high-stress men, women’s orgasm presence or absence might be experienced as especially validating or distressing, intensifying feelings of masculinity achievement or failure."

Whatever boys, your masculinity is not our problem.
