Vanessa Marin and her husband test a viral sex tip that uses a counting pattern of strokes (9 short and 1 long, then 8 and 2, down to 1 and 9) meant to trigger automatic orgasm. Counting during sex distracted them from the moment and didn't work.

Welcome back to Smash or Pass, a series where we, a sex therapist, and her husband, try out the Internet's weirdest sex tips so you don't have to. Okay, here's what we are doing today. So apparently what you're supposed to do is, like, nine short, fast strokes and then one long, deep one. Then eight short, fast ones and two long, deep ones. Seven and three, six and four, yada, yada. And apparently, once we get down to one and nine, I'm supposed to just automatically orgasm.
Wow. Oh, Cheat code. Interesting.
So let's see.
And I got to keep track of the counting. Fun. Well, I definitely lost track of counting. Mike counts the count.
It's a lot to keep track of.
I was like, okay, I'm counting up. But then you're also counting down because it's like you're counting up to nine, but then you have to count up to eight.
I could tell that you were in your head, like, trying to do math rather than being in the moment with me.
I could imagine this might be what it's like to be, like, thinking of your to do list during sex. Like, I was thinking of, okay, what, not where am I going to, Rather than actually being there with you in the moment.
And there definitely was no magical orgasm once he got down to one. I don't know where this tip came from, but counting is not the secret to female orgasm. We definitely give this one a solid pass.
