I can't post this on mainstream subreddits because they'll probably berate me as some "incel". Since the late 20th century, feminists have been trying to say that vaginal orgasms don't exist and the clit is ignored because apparently people think women shouldn't enjoy sex, which is a myth. Nobody cares if they enjoy sex. This thread of mine debunks this myth that people historically expected women to be asexual beings. They also think this is why the orgasm gap exists rather than the simple idea that men think sex is about mere technique.

This study (sci-hub link) found that vaginal education about vagina being important for orgasm was more predictive of orgasm consistency than clitoral education about the clit being important, and that women who received sex education about the clit being important didn't have more orgasms than women with no sexual education.

Vaginal orgasm consistency was associated with all hypothesized correlates. Multivariate analysis indicated the most important predictors were being educated that the vagina is important for female orgasm, being mentally focused on vaginal sensations during PVI, and in some analyses duration of PVI (but not foreplay) and preferring a longer than average penis.

In other words, women with more education about the vagina being important for orgasms or both the vagina and clit being important had more orgasms while women with clitoris education about the clit being important didn't have more orgasms than women with no sexual education. Women who were mentally focused on vaginal sensations during intercourse also had more orgasms.

Having been taught that the vagina is an (or the) important region to be stimulated for female orgasm is associated with greater vaginal orgasm consistency than having being taught that the cli- toris is the important region to be stimulated (which is no better than receiving no sex education at all on the topic). In contrast, global orgasmic consistency with a partner is unrelated to this aspect of sex education. Thus, a clitorocentric sex education does not help global partnered orgasmic function, but it does impair specifically vaginal orgasm (the orgasm associated with better psycho- logical health). This process was noted by Kegel in his critique of Kinsey’s view of female sexuality: “conditioning of response exclusively to clitoral stimulation interferes with the development of vaginal feeling”. As Perry noted in 1984: “for the past 30 years most of us have been telling our patients that there is no such thing as a vaginal orgasm, and as a result, less and less of them are having vaginal orgasms. In terms of the destruction of human pleasure, this may well be the most heinous iatrogenic illness ever perpetrated on western civilization.”. Perry observed that “learning to masturbate with only clitoral stimulation, as we have been teaching women for some 30 years, may in fact prevent the normal development of vaginal sensitivity”. This observation is consistent with the present empirical findings, as well as with the earlier finding that, although vaginally orgasmic women are less likely to masturbate in the past month than vaginally anorgasmic women, they are more likely to incorporate vaginal stimulation when they do masturbate.

One clitorocentric view of women’s sexuality attempts to attribute PVI orgasm to indirect clitoral stimulation. However, penile stimulation of the vagina and especially of the cervix stimulates not only the pudendal nerve activated by the cli- toris, but also the pelvic, hypogastric, and vagus nerves, which are not significantly stimulated by the clitoris. Cervical–vaginal stimulation of women with complete spinal cord injury (the brain then has no connection to the clitoris, but receives stimulation from the vagus nerve induced by cer- vical buffeting) can lead to orgasm (confirmed not only by self-report, but by functional magnetic resonance imaging). This is hard evidence that the clitoris is not needed for female orgasm, let alone for intercourse orgasm. Interestingly, the vagus nerve is also involved in the processes of attention, emotion regulation, and perhaps pair-bonding; and better vagal tone is associated (in both sexes) with frequency of PVI, but not fre- quencies of either masturbation or sexual activities with a partner that exclude PVI. The vagus nerve has parasympathetic cardiovascular effects, and persons who had penile–vaginal intercourse in the fortnight preceding a laboratory stressor had better (lesser) blood pressure reactivity and faster blood pressure recovery than persons who had other or no sexual activities.

Another study (sci-hub link) found women's orgasms are more consistent when there's longer intercourse duration (which the former study also found) and that longer foreplay is not associated with it.

Now I guess r/badwomensanatomy is going to attack this thread, but it seems like this overemphasis on the clit as important for orgasms is something second wave feminists came up with. Nonetheless, without clitoral stimulation, women won't orgasm if they aren't learning about focusing on their vaginal sensations or people don't communicate or if people don't focus on stimulating the cervix during intercourse (at least from what the data shows). But if someone wants to prove me wrong, examine these statistics instead of resorting to ad hominem attacks.
