Lesbians experience more pleasure in bed, a new study suggests.

Researchers found that women in same-sex relationships are more likely than their straight counterparts to reach orgasm during sex, with lesbians and straight women climaxing 75 percent and 62 percent of the time when having sex with a familiar partner, according to Pink News.

Straight women also experience fewer orgasms than straight men, according to researchers. However, bisexual women were the least likely to climax, with only 58 percent climaxing on a regular basis, according to the Huffington Post.

However, the study revealed that a similar percentage of gay, bisexual and straight men experienced orgasm during sex. The study, which involved more than 6,500 people between the ages of 21 and 65, revealed that 85.1 percent of all men report experiencing orgasm during sex, according to Business Standard.

"One possible explanation is that lesbian women are more comfortable and familiar with the female body and thus, on average, are better able to induce orgasm in their female partner," researchers wrote in the study.

"Findings from this large dataset of US singles suggest that women, regardless of sexual orientation, have less predictable, more varied orgasm experiences than do men and that for women, but not men, the likelihood of orgasm varies with sexual orientation," they added. "These findings demonstrate the need for further investigations into the comparative sexual experiences and sexual health outcomes of sexual minorities."

The findings were published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine.
