A median between research, awareness and performance art, the Orgasm Sound Library website () is also home to beautiful data art that unfolds as you play an audio file. #OrgasmosReales (#RealOrgasms) trended on Spain Twitter and across the Atlantic, Conan O'Brien featured it on his TBS talk show Conan.īut this female orgasm repository is more than an audio library. More than 100 women made themselves heard in the first week of its launch last month, their orgasms being listened to 110,000 times in five days. Orgasm Sound Library may be a supplementary project, but it's also the show-stealer. That was the seed of the study," says Aguiar. "At the end of 2014, we realised there was still a lot of confusion around female pleasure. Their findings: 60 per cent of women moan simply to excite partners during sex, 30 per cent believe orgasms should be mechanical (versus 42 per cent of men), and 43.2 per cent fake it to end unsatisfactory intercourse.įiction versus Reality in Sex took shape after Bijoux Indiscrets launched Twenty One, the diamond-shaped vibrator. Named after Denis Diderot's 18th century erotic novel Les Bijoux Indiscrets ( The Indiscreet Jewels), the 10-year-old company - of, by and for women - undertook the Fiction versus Reality in Sex study in 2015.


"There are over 250 uploads now, and it doesn't stop." "We needed to catch people's attention over female pleasure, and thought of inviting them to discover what it really sounds like without conforming to porn or Hollywood film theatrics," says Marta Aguiar, CEO and co-founder of the erotic products brand.
