Barry Komisaruk

Okay, now the study that should be famous, and it's not, and I want you to sit down for it.

Beverly Whipple, Gina Ogden, and Barry Com- oh, my, his name, Komisaruk, worked with women who reported they could reach orgasm from imagery alone.[laughs] Hear that again.

Imagery alone.

No touching, no stimulation of any kind, just their own minds.

Absolutely.

And so right now, just to talk really quickly about the difference between vaginal and clitoral orgasms, there's a really interesting research by Commissar.

He did a phenomenal research on measuring the areas of the brain and depending on women whether they were stimulating their clitoris, their vagina, their cervix, and even their nipples.

And they saw that each individual stimulation lit up different parts of the brain.

But that, that wouldn't induce that.

Fast-forward many, many years, um, uh, Barry Komisaruk and Beverly Whipple at Rutgers University, I ended up talking with them quite a bit.

And, uh, my, my goal is to make one of these in a non-ferrous metallic device so it can be in a functional MRI.

Beverly-- They should've gotten a Nobel Prize for this, but again, women's stuff.

The, the one that's the most fascinating to me is the relationship of the vagus nerve with the cervical orgasm.

There's this fascinating research by Komisaruk where they found out that women with complete spinal cord injury, as in they couldn't feel anything from the point of the injury down, couldn't feel anything, couldn't move anything.

They could still have vaginal cervical orgasms.

Specifically cervical orgasms.
