Multiple Os

If you throw as many conceptual frameworks as possible and mediums of expressions at the decoder of a sexual experience, will they be able to approximately conceptualize and express your experience?

Several modern and ancient mathematicians have used the method of exhaustion, or proof by exhaustion, to approximate areas of shapes and curves on a graph. I believe this concept can be used to better approximate the totality or “area” of our orgasmic experiences.

If one were to use every way of conceptualization from every department of a university, every tool for expressing one’s experience, and every knowledge about orgasm from esoteric tradition, neo-tantra/neo-Toaism, and Western methods, I believe the experience will begin to be clearer and clearer to both the experiencer and the decoder of their experience.

Just as one gets closer and closer to approximation of a shape until a good-enough rule of thumb approximation is reached, one might get close enough through using five to ten frameworks. After this point, there may be a point of diminishing returns, especially if the interdisciplinary frameworks across the methodological rigor spectrum are well selected.

No one methodology is best, but a collection of different types would be optimal. I think case studies should involve participants as co-researchers as experts of their own subjective experience. Ideally, I think a combination of at least one framework from the formalisms, hard sciences, soft sciences, humanities, and arts and any participant-relevant religious/spiritual/vitalistic framework should be included.

No brain image should be presented without also showing the art of the brain that was imaged. One thousand case studies of this type would provide more value than a meta-analysis of all contemporary literature on the topic to date about the variability and uniqueness of every session for every individual.

Just one big problem: Journal and writing standards stand in the way of this. Perhaps endocrinologists, brain imagers, physiologists, psychologists, etc. who study sexual experiences should start publishing in humanities or art journals.
