B.Simone shared a personal “fun fact” with fans about orgasms and unfortunately, she isn’t alone. On Monday, the influencer fired off a series of tweets about her sex life. Her first tweet, however, sparked a lot of commotion on the internet. “Fun fact : I had my 1st orgasm ever in life last month . I’ve been celibate for 10 months…what does that tell you ?,” she tweeted.

I had my 1st orgasm ever in life last month . I’ve been celibate for 10 months…what does that tell you ? 🤔
While she was met with some criticism for being TMI, her next tweet gave people insight into her confession. “I met this lady she’s an intimacy coordinator /sex educator. She has taught me so much and it’s so cool to learn things that we just don’t learn . We just start having sex not knowing simple sh-t. I mean im hella late having and orgasm (im not talking bout that ) but other stuff.”

OnePoll conducted a survey in 2020 that revealed that 4 out of 10 Americans have never experienced an orgasm. Eighteen percent of women surveyed said that they fake it at least three times a month. Fifty percent of men surveyed admitted that they don’t know how to please their partners.
The 32-year-old comedian eventually responded to the backlash she received for her tweets and touched on men not knowing women’s bodies.
“If I point to the clitoris on a diagram and ask 10 men what it was I promise you they all wouldn’t know. Please stop acting like you know everything about a woman’s body when in reality you’re not taking the time to learn.”

B.Simone’s revelation comes on the heels of The Breakfast Club’s DJ Envy’s wife Gia Casey’s confession that she didn’t orgasm within the first 10 years of their relationship. “We would be intimate and he would be putting his best foot forward like, he is in the business of satisfying just all around. He lives to make me happy, and he puts his best foot forward in that role,” she said.
“So I would see him trying and really going to work, and I’m sure many women can relate, you want to reward that man for that work and the only reward that you have to offer is an orgasm. And even if I didn’t feel it, I would still be performative. So, yes I was faking it.”
