Document Summary
In addition to focusing on the biological basis of sex, sex education curricula assume uniformity in the psychological experiences of women. One of the effects of the cultural influences on views of sexuality is the presentation as. Clitoris: the erectile tissue in the female; main purpose is providing excitement and is innervated by multiple nerve endings. The labia folds cover the vaginal openings by folding inwards. The clitoris is at the top of the labial area. The vagina represents a long tube through which menstrual fluid passes, as long as the penis enters and kids come out. The stages of the sexual reponses do not have to follow the exact order. Women may not place a lot of emphasis on achieving orgasms to rate the experience as pleasurable emphasize emotional closeness and communication. Responses to orgasms and physiological responses of both men and women are quite parallel. Men reach orgasms faster than women [not necessarily better]
