The Luminescence Podcast with Schuyler Grant

The Orgasm Gap


Listen Later

The clitoral conspiracy is real.

This episode explains why women orgasm way less than men in heterosexual relationships (just 65% compared to 95%) and what you can do about it.

Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) get real about female anatomy, sexual pleasure, and the cultural myths keeping women from experiencing orgasm.

What you'll learn:

• Clitoral anatomy explained (your clitoris is way bigger than you think—seriously, Google it)

• Why female orgasm rates are so low in heterosexual relationships

• The difference between sexual arousal and sexual desire

• Why penetration-focused sex isn't creating orgasms for most women

• How to improve intimacy and sexual satisfaction

• Practical tools for better sex and closing the orgasm gap

Here's a fun fact: the clitoris was discovered in 460 BCE, then men decided to just...forget about it for a few thousand years. Most medical textbooks still barely cover female sexual anatomy.

This episode offers you some of the sex education you never got—science-based info about women's sexual health, minus the shame, plus honest conversation about what sexual pleasure actually looks like.

Featured Guests:

• Dr. Jolene Brighten – Naturopathic endocrinologist, author of Is This Normal? and Beyond the Pill

• Dr. Mariza Snyder – Functional wellness expert, author of The Perimenopause Revolution

• Rosie Acosta – Host of Radically Loved, yoga and meditation teacher
