“What is this for?” This is probably one of the questions that has been heard the most times by math teachers. Haters of this subject tend to think that they will never use it in their day-to-day lives, despite the fact that mathematics is everywhere, from the shopping list to the pandemic that we have lived through. But not only that, mathematics is also behind the perfect orgasm.
This is the conclusion of a team of scientists from the University of Sussex, whose results can be read in a study of Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science.
In it, they have developed complex mathematical formulas, based on the psychological and physiological issues of the perfect orgasm. They are not formulas that anyone can test in the bedroom, but they can help experts better understand the male orgasm and advise men to go to a doctor or sexologist for problems with their orgasms. In addition, with what they have learned from this first investigation, they hope to be able to do the same for the female orgasm, despite the fact that it is much more complex.
First you have to understand the brain
The perfect orgasm is influenced by both psychological and physiological factors, so that in both the brain plays a very important role.
So these scientists began by looking at previous research in which the brain of men during the sexual act was studied using magnetic resonance imaging. This allowed us to verify that, just before orgasm, many areas of the brain cease their activity. These are mainly the amygdala, responsible for processing emotions and threatening stimuli; the frontal cortical regionswhich control judgment and decision making, and orbitofrontal cortexwhich integrates sensory information and participates in decision making for emotional and reward-related behavior.
Therefore, it can be said that, during the climax, much of the brain shuts down. It is totally a disconnection of thoughts. All of this, along with the climax phases, which include arousal, plateau, orgasm, and resolution, were taken into account in the development of the formulas.
The math of the perfect orgasm
These scientists have developed very complex mathematical formulas, which make it possible to calculate the better psychological and physiological factors to achieve male orgasm. Although they are calculations that should be handled by people with a good knowledge of mathematics, some advice can be extracted from them.
For example, it is better to start small. If there is too much arousal at the beginning, or even before the sexual act begins, it will be much more difficult to reach orgasm. We have already seen what is sought to turn off brainso thinking too much doesn’t help.
What is all this for?
The calculations also take into account factors unrelated to the sexual actsuch as daytime arousal or what are known as wet dreams.
Ultimately, all the stochastic factors, which are random phenomena that can be quantified statistically. Thus, it is possible to see the combinations of steps that lead more easily to orgasm and, in turn, better understand the pathologies that lead to its absence.
We already know that orgasm should not be the only objective of a sexual relationship. In fact, think a lot about looking for it it’s the worst thing to do. But we also know that it is a pleasant result that indicates good sexual health. Therefore, these formulas are a blessing for those who have trouble reaching it. If with this there are those who continue to believe that mathematics are useless, we give up.
