Cara Delevingne suggests men ‘aren’t equipped with the right tools’ to pleasure women

She was speaking on her new documentary Planet Sex

Actor and model Cara Delevingne has suggested that men “are not equipped with the right tools” to sexually pleasure a woman. Speaking in the first episode of her new BBC documentary Planet Sex with Cara Delevingne, which premiered on Thursday (1 December), the supermodel discussed “the orgasm gap.” This is the name given to the fact that 95 percent of straight men orgasm during intercourse, compared to just 65 percent of straight women. “I do feel that generally men are not equipped with the right tools to be able to handle women, especially sexually,” said Delevingne in the six-part documentary. The 30-year-old continued: “For me, the earliest ideas I ever got taught about sex were man plus woman, d*** plus vagina equals orgasm. “I don’t want to go into the art of making a woman come, but it’s just a lot more complicated and a lot more fun.” Earlier in the same episode, Delevingne took part in a scientific study at a university in Germany - which involved her masturbating for 10 minutes while her blood was drawn. “I have had some weird sexual experiences, but this is definitely up there,” she said. She labelled it one of the "bravest" things she had ever done, adding: "I can't believe I did it." https://twitter.com/bbcthree/status/1598271188073054208 And she spoke openly in the series about her struggle with gender identity when she was growing up. “I couldn’t talk to anyone about it,” she says in the documentary. “I had a lot of internalised homophobia and shame. I thought that I was abnormal.” Reflecting on the series, the supermodel admitted that making Planet Sex with Cara Delevingne changed her life. “Now I’m happier than I’ve ever been. I feel really, really proud of what we created,” she said. “I know I shouldn’t feel shame but I truly believe there are souls like me all over the world.” Planet Sex with Cara Delevingne is available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
