Puts et.al;(2011) conducted a study of a sample of university students (men n=110, women n=110) which were in a committed sexual relationship. | |||
The participants were photographed and then led into a private booth where they completed a questionnaire where the men rated "rated their own attractiveness, dominance and masculinity and their partner's femininity" and the women rated "women rated their own attractiveness and their partner's dominance and masculinity". Women also reported their rate of orgasm during sexual intercourse and partner and self induced orgasms during masturbation. | |||
Using software the researches conducted a model of facial sexual dimorphism and compared it to the photographs of the male participants. They discovered: | |||
* "Objective measures of the quality of women's mates-men's attractiveness and masculinity-significantly predicted the women's orgasms" | |||
* Women were quicker to orgasm with more masculine men (β=.36) when it concerned women reaching orgasm before their partners) | |||
* Women were much more likely to orgasm (β=.50) during or after the man if he was more attractive and reported himself as dominant (β=.24) | |||
* "Interestingly, this component of female orgasm (achieving orgasm after or during the male partners orgasm") was negatively predicted by male self-rated dominance and masculinity. Because more objective measures of male dominance, masculinity and attractiveness either weakly or negatively loaded onto the self-rated dominance/masculinity component, we suspect that self-rated dominance/masculinity measured something other than genetic quality" | |||
* Masculinity and attractiveness predicted women's probability of orgasm during intercourse, but not during not intercourse activities (i.e oral sex, mutual masturbation) the authors suggested "this suggests that male sire quality increases female orgasm specifically during sexual behaviors that could result in conception, thus supporting the sire choice hypothesis(i.e that women's orgasms serve the function of increasing the retention of the semen of more desirable mates)." | |||
In another study, Sela et al.;(2015) conducted a self-reported survey of women (n=439) in "committed, heterosexual relationship" to investigate the relationship with their chance of orgasm during their last copulation with their partner and their assessments of their own and other women's attraction to their male partners. They found: | |||
* To nobodies surprise, women who perceived their partners as more physically attractive were more likely to orgasm during their last act of coitus with them. The researchers controlled for such factors as relationship satisfaction etc and found this was a direct relationship. | |||
* What is interesting their chance to orgasm was also mediated (directly caused) by their perceptions of '''other women's''' attraction to their mates. This suggests that women are sexually aroused by a male partner they perceive as being highly attractive to other women, which provides more support for the hypothesis that mate-choice copying applies to human females. | |||
