~~~~~~Arousal~~~~~~
 

So my question is this:

Does your brain need to be aroused in order for you to be turned on and to have an orgasm, or is it enough for just your genitals to be stimulated?

For me, if my head's not into it, you could stroke and play with my pussy all night and I wouldn't cum, or even really feel turned on, but if you whisper the right words in my ear, I could cum in a matter of seconds.

Is it the same for other people, or do you reach a point where all that stroking's going to have an effect, no matter what you're thinking about?
I wonder, do men and women differ in this respect?

Enquiring minds want to know.....

There have been times when I thought I'd be able to make it happen despite my mood just to be reminded how much of a mental creature I am. No comments from the peanut gallery please! Mind you, I don't have to be horny out of my mind to have an orgasm...in fact, if I'm anything but totally stressed out and miserable I can usually work myself out of my funk and have a good time. And more importantly...be able to focus on Mrs. WI with the love and enthusiasm sex deserves. So I don't know if this helps or not. ha ha

Rarely but it does happen that I can be strictly genitally stimulated while my mind is elsewhere and explode. More often, 95% of the time, I need to have him touch my soul not my pussy.

If i'm not mentally stimulated then why bother?

Gotta get into sex "head first"....otherwise, well, bits that usually like being touched sometimes start being ticklish. NOT good. Mind you, unless I'm pissed off or extremely tired, I'm usually to be talked into the right mood. Usually it doesn't take much, but it does have to start with my mind.

I,personally,have to be "mentally stimulated!My wife does also! Irish

i've gotta be mentally stimulated too. if i don't feel like it...it ain't gonna happen. period.

Well, normally I think my brain starts the process UP :D, but when it's vice versa, it doesn't take long for my brain to get in the game.

My brain is by far my largest sex organ... arouse my mind (and my heart) and the orgasms won't be far behind.

“The brain is your largest sex organ.”

That is more than a quip. If the endorphins are not able to attach to 'receptors' on the outer surfaces of brain cells, because of other dopamine ‘flooding’, it is difficult for the internal, involuntary reactions to take place.

Exactly!!

My mind and emotions have to be there for me to get aroused.

Now, if she has a really, really good hand then I am sure I would be changing my mind!

I'm not really sure. I've had both happen to me. I guess it comes down to what my mind is on if it isn't on sex.

I have to be there emotionally, or not in a negative funk. Mentally, it doesn't take much to get my mind on sex, it's usually only a half a thought away, anyhow. :p Odd for a woman, I know, must be my age!

It's exactly the same for me. ;)

Wow, I'm surprised to see such a variety of answers here.......as gingerV said I find stimulation of certain parts of me at best ticklish and at worst painful if I'm not mentally aroused.

Thankfully of late I've been mentally aroused pretty much all of the time! :D

I'm not sure if it would happen without any mental stimulation ... don't think it ever has. (But, then, I get involved easily. :D)

I'm trying to seperate the two and I can't. If someone is touching (stimulating) my pussy...believe me, I'm thinking about it...no matter what I was thinking just before.

Call me narrow minded (for lack of a better analogy), but if he's touching me I wouldn't be able to think of much else!

To really completely give into it, get into my mind, make me feel good, tell me how bad you want me...and then it's a good time for sure!!!!

If I'm alone, I can be watching the news & not really paying attention to anything & get off. If I haven't had it in a while, I don't need the mental stimulation. I'll make my brain want it! :D

Yeah Dan Rather gets me hot too :D:D:p

My mind has to be there. But if you start to stroke, I can usaully get my mind there too.;)

mind over matter
 

the mind is the biggest sex organ there is thats why i like cyber it gets me horny but its not cheatin on my wife getting worked up about what turns someone else on is such a turn on ....thats why erotic stories are so great gets your mind going then the hand takes you over the edge :grope: :bj: :slurp: :hot: :sperm: :sperm: :lust: :dizzy: :cheers:

if im not turne don mentally it wil take ALOT longer and wont be as hard..

but when im horny which i am 99% of the time.. im rock hard for hours and cum like mad!

My head has to be part of the process! My brain, that is!

I really can't say when it comes to sex with a partner since I so rarely have that opportunity. As far as masturbation goes, however, not only does my mind have to be there, but I have to be fantasizing.

Hi Lou

I'm with Lixy Chick and Hunter's Girl on this one. (<< in my dreams :rolleyes: )
What I mean is that my mind doesn't have to be in gear initially but any stimulation and everything else I may be thinking about gets pushed out the way.

If the brain is the larest sex organ,shouldn't you be putting the vibrator in your ear?

lakritze---I just got off of the floor,where I fell after picturing that! Irish :rolleyes:
