LIST OF THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW OR ONCE KNEW AND PROBABLY FORGOT

(extracted from the notes of John Boswell and Dan Starer)
the Four Phases of Sexual Response:
---------------------------------------------
1. Excitement Phase. in men, the penis becomes engorged with blood, erect and hardened. in women, the clitoris becomes engorged with blood and the vagina becomes lubricated.
2. Plateau Phase. as sexual excitement continues, blood pressure rises, heart and breathing rate increase. in men, penis circumference increases, in women, the inner two thirds of the vagina expands and lengthens, while the outer third constricts.
3. Orgasm Phase. at the height of excitement comes the release in which men ejaculate and women experience a rhythmic contraction of the vaginal walls and clitoris. the heart and respiration rates more than double.
4. Resolution Phase. breathing returns to normal and swelling of the sex organs subsides.
