Sigmund Freud thought vaginal is "better/more mature"; reality is physiologically all orgasms are the same and clitoral stimulation is almost always involved in producing orgasms

46
desire and passion are not part of the model and participants were chosen only if they had a history of orgasm
Criticisms of Masters and Johnson
47
Kaplan; sexual response has 3 relatively independent phases: sexual desire, vasocongestion of the genitals, and the reflex muscular contractions of orgasm (2 components are physiological, 1 is psychological); useful in understanding the nature of sexual response and treating disturbances in it
Kaplan's Triphasic Model of sexual response
48
2 basic processes underlie human sexual response: excitation (responding with arousal to sexual stimuli) and inhibition (inhibiting sexual arousal); almost all sex research has focused on the excitation component, but it is equally important to understand inhibition; most fit in range, but too much excitation can lead to high-risk sexual behaviors (26-40) and too much inhibition can lead to erectile disfunction
Dual Control Model of sexual response/sexual excitation-inhibition model
49
occurs when the ejaculate empties into the bladder rather than going out the tip of the penis, resulting in dry orgasm; external sphincter closes so ejaculate can't flow out of penis and internal sphincter opens so it goes into bladder; not as much pleasure

Limbic system
53
hormone effect that cause a relatively preeminent change in the organization of some structures (nervous system or reproductive system); hormones present during prenatal development that create male/female genitals
Organizing effects
54

Activating effects
55
the most important hormone to sexual desire in men and women
