Yeah, thats the question many antidepressants put on you...

Let's just say if 2 orgasms per week lowers your risk of prostate cancer, I'm pretty sure my prostate will last until the heat death of the universe.

But this isn't even close. I'd choose laughter every time.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Same here. Life would be awful without being able to laugh, but there are plenty of ways to get pleasure outside of orgasms.

[–] ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (2 children)

If I still get aroused and am unable to orgasm, that would be torture but if I don't even feel the urge then I would let that go. I don't laugh often anymore so it can stay or go, I doubt I would miss it.

[–] ccunning@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

It sounds like you’re choosing “neither”.

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There's something to be said for being a desperate, horny, needy, leaky mess though. Might not be for you but you never know unless you try =D

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I wanna try.

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Definitely the latter. Tmi (but the OP is tmi anyway) but I have never been able to feel sexual pleasure so I have never had an orgasm. Nothing wrong with me to my knowledge. I'm not paralyzed or anything and I never had any traumatic sexual encounters. It just doesn't work like that for me.

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

No idea why you're downvoted for this. Have an upvote for contributing to the thread. Interesting perspective too.

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago

Don't need to cum for to feel amazing from getting my butt filled. However, having fun with people is gonna suck if I can't laugh.

[–] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

no orgasm doesn't mean no sexual pleasure. It could even be hot. Laughter any day of the week

[–] tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The latter since due to ADHD and trauma I'm basically already there 🙃

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Never laughing!

I can appreciate funny without having to laugh. I do it a lot! I can also monetize this like that one girl did.

Orgasms are better. There must be an end to the fap!

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Would one happens daily and the other never happens soooo..

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A grim life of humorless orgasms

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago

Laughing orgasm sounds intense.

[–] evanstucker@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Geez, Satan over here trying to come up with fresh ideas for Hell.

[–] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

How about laughing whenever you orgasm, or orgasming wherever you laugh?

[–] ContrarianTrail@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If I can still get pleasure from the stimulation itself but just be unable to reach climax then I'd choose to live without orgasms.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Imagine if it was that way for laugher

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Never laugh again. There are plenty of other ways to convey humour, but no orgasms would destroy my marriage.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’m having a hard time believing that a lack of laughter wouldn’t destroy your marriage too

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 month ago

Smiling, winking, and other ways to show mirth are still on the table.
