I ought to add also the most publicised, the most memorable and certainly my favourite orgasm, on the movie screen I mean. Everyone would have heard by now that Nora Ephron had just passed away at the age of 71, defeated by Leukaemia.
It
was Nora Ephron, journalist and cinematic script writer who, after a
decade regularly working on films and television, created what's to be
her most outstanding success, the film script of 'When Harry meets
Sally', with the most celebrated sex scene without sex like the orgasm
of Meg Ryan in a restaurant, to show her table companion (Billy
Crystal), how a woman can fake or simulate an sexual orgasm with no
problem at all, between mouthfuls of sandwich. With the wonderful added
punch-line of another woman in the same restaurant, right after the
orgasmic exhibition, asking the waiter to bring her the same food Meg
Ryan had.
That scene of hers wraps up the woman's cunning, or kindness depending on how you view it, to preserve the male pride, fulfilling his macho fantasy of being a powerful, competent and ideal lover; and the woman's wisdom and resilience, or resignation, feigning the orgasm.
Throughout
the ages, women had always been striving to complete multitude of
rolls in domestic as well as professional fields. To be the red hot
lover in bed, seductive, eager and responsive, easily pleased and
showed her appreciation with screaming pleasure. She is also expected
to be an ideal housewife, providing a clean, comfortable and cosy home
for all the family, combining often with a full time job, never forgets
to attend the parents day meetings with the teachers of the children,
makes the best meat loaf and Angels' cake just like grandma's, and able
to stretch the tight budget like a magician so no family member is
short of anything.
Little
wonder she can't resist the request to the waiter of the restaurant to
bring her the same food that was served to Meg Ryan. We all need a
little help at times, and some optimism to cope. Even feigning it.
