Women reveal the extraordinary ways they’ve orgasmed… WITHOUT having sex
It seems bizarre but these women really believe non-sexual stimulants are capable of triggering their orgasms
IT'S been revealed orgasms for women don't actually require a conventionally sexual stimulus.
A group of women have shared their own experiences on - a website that lets anyone share thoughts on a range of topics.
One woman confessed she climaxed after sneezing at home one day.
Addison, 30, admitted: "I then had an orgasm and fell of my chair. Best part was that the sneezes were snotty so there I was halfway on the floor having an orgasm with snot on my hand."
Others have reported that they've experienced orgasms mid-workout even though research shows there’s no direct stimulation or fantasies involved in the phenomenon.
Jenny, 23, said: "I was in gymnastics in middle school and had one just hanging from the bars.
"At the time I had no idea what had happened, just that it felt amazing."
Another added she accidentally orgasmed on the Tube while doing her kegal exercises discreetly- which is the contracting and relaxing the muscles that form part of the pelvic floor.

One woman, known only as Mila, claimed she experienced an orgasm after going horse riding.
The 26-year-old said: "I was on the equestrian team in high school and running my horse through some easy jumps and he got a little spooked by something and sped way up for a second.
"Anyway, something in the rhythm change made me rub a certain way and suddenly I was hanging on for dear life as I had the weirdest orgasm ever.
"I couldn't look that horse in the eye for a week after and I felt totally exposed by having that happen in front of my teammates."
The mystery of why women have orgasms has been solved — and it is all down to monkeys.
Scientists suggest it is a happy accident from our evolutionary past.
US experts found “feel good” hormones released after orgasms aid ovulation in many mammals, including apes.
But the human ovarian cycle is not dependent upon sexual activity and evolution has removed the link between orgasms and reproduction.
Prof Mihaela Pavlicev said: “We think the hormonal surge characterises a trait we know as female orgasm in humans.
“This insight enabled us to trace the evolution of the trait across species.”
