Well, obviously. But, physically what happens to you when you have an orgasm? What happens physiologically in ones body that causes the feeling.

For a lady:
From the internetz:
Her skin will flush and muscles all over her body will continue to contract. Blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing rates will continue to rise.
In the vagina itself, she’ll feel rhythmic contractions in the outer part of the vagina, in her uterus and anus. These intense pulses happen about once ever second. Mild orgasms have 3–5 pulses, and intense orgasms have 10–15. Wow!
From me:
Her back is arched and body is on fire.
I’ll tell you when you’re older…
It’s like when you get a Great Answer, but lower.
Ahhhhhhhhhh…..
For a woman: Ooohhh I love you!
For a guy: Fuck yeah! Now let’s get pizza.
It’s that feeling when every single nerve in your body turns inside out for about 6 or 7 seconds… Wait a couple minutes, repeat…
A complete loss of control…in a good way!
In addition to the normal “symptoms,” I personally get a head rush, and sometimes my hands will feel stiff (because all the blood has rushed out of them).
The best feeling in the world.
I forgot to add an uncontrollable feeling that you will never forget.
If I read your question correctly, you are not asking what an orgasm is like. You want to know how it happens.
It is a combination of brain chemicals, here is an article you might find helpful.
Its a reflex, which I suppose might explain why for some people it can be triggered by brushing their teeth and such not. Mark Roach did an interesting talk on orgasms at TedTALKS, she also wrote a book thats on my list.
@jmah thanks! Can you believe this man only got an honorable mention at the World Beard and Moustache Competition? It’s a travesty.
Heaven in a sticky white goo?
