Great Orgasms Are Inherited In Your DNA, Study Says

The ability to have earth-shattering orgasms is partially genetic, British researchers have uncovered. The study, which focused on female orgasms, asked identical and nonidentical twins two questions: “Overall, how frequently do you experience an orgasm during intercourse?” and “How frequently do you experience an orgasm during masturbation by yourself or a partner?” Researchers were interested in uncovering whether there was a difference in answers between the sets of identical and nonidentical twins.

Identical twins share a DNA code with each other, meaning the differences in their answers were likely a result of the different environments in which they were induced into orgasm. Nonidentical twins, on the other hand, only share 50% of their DNA, meaning differences in their answers come down to genetics as well as the different environments in which they might come to orgasm. Sure enough, the researchers found that genetic factors played an important role, accounting for up to 60% of a woman’s ability to reach the big O.

New Genetic Links To Same-Sex Behavior Found In Huge Study

The largest study of its kind found new evidence that genes contribute to same-sex sexual behavior. The genome-wide research on DNA from nearly half a million US and UK adults identified five genetic variants not previously linked with gay or lesbian sexuality. The variants were more common in people who reported having had a same-sex sexual partner, including people whose partners were exclusively of the same sex and those who mostly reported heterosexual behavior.

The researchers said thousands more genetic variants likely are involved and interact with factors that aren’t inherited—but that none of them cause same-sex behavior or can predict whether someone will be gay. The study’s authors say the research “provides the clearest glimpse yet into the genetic underpinnings of same-sex sexual behavior.” They add, “We also found that it’s effectively impossible to predict an individual’s sexual behavior from their genome. Genetics is less than half of this story for sexual behavior but it’s still a very important contributing factor.”
