The Concept of the Sexocorporel: Explanation of Terms

Orgastic Discharge:
Orgastic discharge is a reflexive response to a sufficient amount of arousal, on a purely physical level. During orgastic discharge, rhythmic contractions of the pelvic floor and abdominal musculature occur (every 0.8 seconds). With men, usually ejaculation occurs.

Orgasty:
By orgasty, we mean the ability to have an orgastic discharge. When this ability is absent in a woman, we call it anorgasty; in a man, the absence of ejaculation is called anejaculation.

Orgastic discharge can also take place without ejaculation – for instance, when (for medical reasons) no ejaculation is possible, or when ejaculation is consciously suppressed as in Taoism.

Orgasmic Discharge (Orgasm):
An orgasm is a complex psychophysiological phenomenon wherein orgastic discharge is accompanied by intense emotional feelings of pleasure and lust.

Orgasmy:
This means the ability to reach an orgasm. Sexual satisfaction is directly related to the intensity of the experience. Conditions for this include the ability to diffuse arousal throughout the body, channel it in the genital region, and to be able to “let go” – emotionally and genitally.

The transition from orgasty to orgasmy is fluid.
