N2 - This study is a qualitative study of one woman's capacity to reach more than one hundred orgasms during one sexual "session". The study is based on her written account of her capacity and interviews. This paper focuses on her current orgasmic capacity, the factors affecting it, and "Anonymous" (AN's) experiences and emotional responses related to it. Although for AN her sexual capacity was, and still is, highly important and consuming, it was pleasuring and under control. As a highly sexual woman, she experienced the tension of acting out her sexual desires and straying from societal convention. Consequently, fantasy was one of the ways that her needs were met. It is apparent both from the available literature and from this study that a woman's capability to have multiple orgasms is dependent on a combination of developmental, psychological and psychosocial conditions. It is not known if there are unique physiological and biochemical enabling mechanisms. "Anonymous" has consented to have laboratory tests and brain imaging performed and currently efforts are being made to carry these out.
