Is This An Orgasm???

Ever since i was about 5 or 6 maybe younger,  ive been getting an urge to hang on something, then cross my legs very tightly, and then after a couple seconds i would feel a short sensation in my privates. Im 13 now and i do it every time i become horny. This is embarrassing for me to talk about and have no interest in seeking medical help because ive researched it and found alot of people do the same thing but without hanging. usually i put my left arm on a chair and my right arm on a desk. or sometimes i put one arm on my toilet and the other arm on the bath. i always do it privately though, and im pretty certain it is an orgasm because i do it whilst thinking about sexual things. Like i said its embarrassing as im only 13, but i really need answers! Thanks.

P.S. Some women can cross their legs and rub their thighs together and achieve orgasm. Other women can cross their legs and bounce their foot and reach orgasm. Still others can just THINK themselves to orgasm! These are all very rare skills so if you can do any of them, again, you are one of the very lucky ones! I still don't know if what you're doing is an actual orgasm, and I don't understand and can't picture the "hanging" you describe, but I can tell you this: when I was your age, I thought the moisture I experienced 'down there' was orgasm - it wasn't! - but when I finally had my first real orgasm at age 16, BOY!!! WAS IT DIFFERENT than what I thought I was having at age 14!!! When it happens, YOU'LL DEFINITELY KNOW IT!! There's is NO missing it or mistaking it when it happens!!! It's the BEST sensation you will ever feel in your body!!!

It's hard to answer this question for you because the sensation of orgasm has always been notoriously difficult to describe. It's often described as a 'pelvic sneeze' but that's more a description of the the mechanics of an orgasm - the sensation of building up and then a big 'explosion' followed by a sigh of relief. As to the actual pleasure that's felt, that's where it gets hard to explain. I mean, how do you explain the feeling of relief you get when you scratch an itch? Can you put the actual feeling of a scratched itch into words? No, you can't, you can only describe the sense of relief, the emotional feeling behind it, not the physical sensation of the act. All anyone can tell you is that it's an EXTREMELY pleasurable feeling of release after a period of build-up to the release. You might feel pleasure waves go through your pelvis before and after, and maybe even through your inner thighs, and you'll feel a strong pulsating feeling during the actual orgasm. Your pelvic floor muscles will contract and relax involuntariy anywhere from 3 to 10 or more times (everyone is different, and every orgasm you have may differ from other orgasms you have, with some being teeny tiny and others being HUGE). Each time the muscles are contracting you are feeling that wonderful pleasure of the orgasm, and each time they contract, your clitoris, vaginal opening, and cervix, inside your vaginal canal, will pulsate. During orgasm, your cervix is actually dipping backward/downward and touching the back wall of your vagina. There is a purpose to this: during sex, assuming you are lying on your back (as nature intended, and you're about to understand why), when the man climaxes, his semen will pool in the bottom/back of your vagina, and during your orgasm, with each pleasurable contraction you feel, your cervix dips down into that pool to 'suck up' that semen in order to help facilitate pregnancy. So, though it may be debated by ignorant male doctors, there is an actual, physiological purpose for the female orgasm, although it is NOT required for pregnancy to happen. Many women never experience orgasm their entire lives, and among those that do, only a small percent can have multiple orgasms. So if you find that you are capable of either of these, consider yourself one of the lucky ones! Learn, through self exploration and masturbation, what gives your body pleasure sensations and what you require to achieve orgasm, whether it is internal stimulation, external stimulation, or both at the same time, whether you need to be on top during sex or if you are one of the VERY lucky few women who can orgasm with the man on top, etc. You are still FAR too young to engage in sex with a partner but you are not too young to explore your own body. Be patient with yourself and take your time. You have all the time in the world to get to know yourself and the gifts God have you as a woman and giver of life. Be careful not to scratch or hurt yourself internally, which is easy to do since, other than the internal g-spot (a small, peanut-sized cluster of nerves in the front wall of the vagina about 2" up inside, in SOME women), the inside of the vagina has no nerve endings, so if you scratch it inside you will not know it unless it gets infected and turns painful (I've never heard of this happening, though I've read about it, so just be careful and keep your nails clean and trimmed and not sharp). Keep yourself VERY CLEAN externally so as to not have to worry about bladder infections (caused most often by the type of bacteria that naturally lives in your anus, so keep your whole external area very clean by wiping and washing from front to back, and never touch your vagina after touching your anus, even when you're clean! And never let your partner do so either). Welcome to womanhood!!! ❤️ (Excuse any typos!)
