| "Orgasm feels like water shooting up through the
top of a fountain, tickling all the way, then shooting out of the top
in electric vibrations through my body."
"Some are just a quick hard rush that shoots through my body
like a bolt of lightning. Others feel like a slow burn, they
build up over time, they tease me, floating up and down my
body--spreading out like concentric circles, and then there will be a
burst of release."
"Orgasm leaves me feeling energized, refreshed and
beautiful. Sometimes it's a very quick experience, and other
times the build-up is so great that it becomes almost like an orgasm
itself."
"I like reveling in the last moment or to before I surrender
to orgasm. Often I will tense up all over my body, rise up and
let my partner know how good I feel."

1997.) |
"Physical
pleasure is a sensual experience no different from pure seeing or the pure
sensation with which a fine fruit fills the tongue; it is a great unending
experience, which is given us, a knowing of the world, the fullness and glory of
all knowing. And not our acceptance of it is bad; the bad things is that
most people misuse and squander this experience and apply it as a stimulant at
the tired spots of their lives and as distraction instead of a rallying toward
exulting moments." (Rainer Maria Rilke. Letter of July 16, 1903, published
in Letters to a Young Poet. 1934.)
