The Sexual Response - The Female Response

The Response Cycle: An Observed Pattern, not a Norm

The following summary of the human sexual response is not meant to establish a norm or an ideal of sexual performance.

The only purpose of our summary is to provide women and men with some general information about those physiological processes that may accompany sexual activity. Individual variations should always be expected. Still, a particular woman's basic responses are usually the same throughout her life, no matter what kind of sexual activity she chooses.
