However, the company’s argument proves to be faulty, because maker of the film, Elizabeth Canner, finds many holes in Vivus’ argument, and to go along with this, it then can be said that the disease is a “social construct.” To begin, besides the fact that…

Vivus claimed that Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) was defined as a sexual disability or disease that inhibited achieving orgasm during sexual intercourse and was…
evolutionary theory that discuses female orgasm suggests that ladies preferring longer penises are more seemingly to have vaginal orgasms but not clitoral orgasms. according to the article “Implications for an evolutionary Theory of vaginal Orgasm” by (Miguel, Miller & Brody 2012) this is often supported by their research to check the hypothesis that the frequency of vaginal orgasm is related to women’s reportage that an extended than average penis is a lot of doubtless to electrify their…
The paper states that there is no such thing as a vaginal orgasm, or any sort of orgasm, except for that of a clitoral one. Koedt explains that even if the orgasm is made through stimulation of another sort, such as vaginally, or even mentally, the actual orgasm is rooted in the clitoris. So the question that comes to mind is why do we as a society continue to focus on vaginal penetration if that is not the way to help the female partners achieve orgasm? Though she provides many other…
n the documentary Orgasm Inc, the focal issue was the role of pharmaceutical companies’ overextension of involvement in the medical information around the issue their product was marketed to resolve. The original issue, prompting the documentary in the first place, was that a disorder was created out of nowhere and the results of the misleading studies created a national demand for an unnecessary – and worse, ineffective – drug.

One article that I found to be interesting was “The Myth of the Vaginal Orgasm” by Anne Koedt written in the 1970s. I found this article to be interesting because Koedt is bringing up arguments and issues that, during this time period, are either disregarded as useless information or just not brought up at all.
