Stages of human sexual response everyone possesses a biological sex drive and the stages of the sexual response arise from this drive starting from desire to arousal through orgasm to resolution. The movement from desire to orgasm is traditionally depicted as climbing upstairs. The ground floor is the non-sexual stage.
The first stage is that of desire, while the second is the onset vaginal lubrication and early arousal with penile erection in the male that is not firm enough for sexual intercourse. The third stage is a further progression of the second while the fourth is imminence of orgasm and finally orgasm itself (fifth). It is normal for both sexes to spend time going up and down some of the steps and not directly to step five.
Each individual is responsible for their orgasm and there is no need to aim for synchrony. It is important that the thought and feelings during resolution is that of fulfillment and not resentment.
