How common is it to fake an orgasm?

Let’s just admit it: Sex sometimes takes too long. Or maybe your partner just isn’t doing it for you that night. When you decide you’ve had enough (thank you very much), what do you do? Probably fake an orgasm.

And you aren’t the only one.

A recent survey asked 1,000 Americans and 1,000 Europeans how often they use their “O face.” Of those surveyed, 68 percent of women admitted to faking an orgasm with their partner and 27 percent of men said they have faked it.

<p>When it comes to pulling the ol’ “When Harry Met Sally,” straight women are more likely to fake it on queue than bisexual or gay women, possibly because straight women are more likely to rely on vaginal penetration versus other methods of stimulation, according to the survey.</p><div class='s2nPlayer k-AUr8v6rG' data-type='float'></div><script type='text/javascript' src='//embed.sendtonews.com/player3/embedcode.js?fk=AUr8v6rG&cid=11914&offsetx=0&offsety=0&floatwidth=400&floatposition=bottom-left' data-type='s2nScript'></script>

<p>Bisexual or gay men were “significantly” more likely to fake an orgasm than straight men, survey authors wrote.</p>
<p>More than half of the American survey participants said they faked the big “O” at some point in their sexual adventures, while only 36 percent of Europeans admitted to that particular performance. When it comes to expertise on the tantric tango, 46 percent of Americans said their partners were not well-skilled between the sheets. Europeans flipped the number with 40 percent singing their partner’s praises.</p><div id=

<p>“However, both genders were least likely to fake an orgasm after marriage,” according to the survey. “Maybe this is because a permanent partner is the most likely to satisfy you in bed or because once you’re married, there’s no real reason to pretend anymore.”</p>
<p>Not exactly the sunniest view on post-marital sex, but relationships can be affected when one partner finds out they don’t perform with the prowess they imagined – news that men take more personally than women, according to the survey.</p>
