Trans Woman Samantha Allen Orgasms Again after Anorgasmia following Sex-Reassignment Surgery

While research on multiple orgasms in cisgendered clitoris and penis-owners is scare, literature on multiple orgasms on transgender people following surgery is almost non-existent. Much of the research has been focused on whether they can have a single orgasm after surgery, but no attention has been given to multiple orgasms.

Thankfully, there is still the accounts of multiple orgasms in trans people in other forms of media. On the Girl Boner podcast, trans woman Samantha Allen shares her experience with anorgasmia following sex-reassignment surgery (https://augustmclaughlin.com/o-stories/augustmclaughlin.com).

ANORGASMIA HELPED HER RELATE TO CISGENDER WOMEN

Samantha: “Yeah. I mean, I speak only for myself. Being able to have an orgasm wasn’t a necessary precondition for me to have the surgery. My gender dysphoria was such that it needed to happen and I was willing to accept some amount of risk that I would be anorgasmic. But it was comforting to know that it’s a struggle that many transgender and cisgender women have in common. Figuring out orgasm is tricky. Not everyone gets there, not everyone gets there easily and that’s okay. It’s normal.”

DISCUSSION

As a trans person, what is your multiorgasmic experience like?

DESCRIPTION OF THE EPISODE

How do you feel about orgasms? Have you ever experienced one that went beyond fun or pleasure or release? Or struggled to have one in the first place? If your answer is yes or yes, you are far from alone.

Phone sex operator Amberly Rothfield had just gone through a several-month sex hiatus when she experienced one that changed her life. Author Dr. Samantha Allen had started to think orgasms were no longer a part of her life when, two years after sex-reassignment surgery, she was surprised by one. And therapist Vanessa Marin had her first orgasm as a child, only to struggle in the climax department years later.

I’m excited, and honestly honored, to share these awesome women’s stories today, all of which show that we can discover new types of pleasure at any stage of life. Learn much more in this week’s Girl Boner Radio episode, which is an updated replay. (I released the original version in October, 2020.)
