The excellent blog Mind Hacks pointed me to an interview with a researcher and author on female orgasm.
Mind Hacks: Science of the female orgasm:
discusses the brain functions and peripheral nervous system structures that support the female orgasm, as well speculating on possible evolutionary explanations for its existence.
The interview is wide-ranging and also tackles the effect of SSRI antidepressant medication (known to delay or prevent orgasm in both men and women), the role of desire in sexual satisfaction and the importance of communication in sexual relationships.
