An orgasm is a complex physiological event, characterized by rhythmic contractions of the pelvic muscles, an intense rush of blood flow to the genital area, and the release of powerful neurochemicals such as oxytocin and endorphins. These sensations lead to a profound feeling of pleasure and emotional release.

According to Dr. Barry R. Komisaruk in The Science of Orgasm, the experience of orgasm is a highly individualized process that can be triggered not only by genital stimulation but also by other forms of sensory input. This phenomenon of 'non-genital orgasms' highlights the incredible versatility of the human body in experiencing pleasure.

As Dr. Ed Wheat beautifully articulates in Intended for Pleasure, the capacity for orgasm is not an accident but an intentional part of God's design for marriage. These moments of intense pleasure remind us that our bodies are 'fearfully and wonderfully made,' created to bring joy and fulfillment within the sacred bond of marriage.
