Below are 10 characteristics of women who experience what is known as Expanded Sexual Response (ESR). Expanded sexual response is defined as being able to attain long lasting and/or prolonged and/or multiple and/or sustained and/or status orgasmus that last longer and are more intense than the classical orgasm patterns defined in the literature. The research is credited to Dr. Umit Sayin of Istanbul University.
