Abstract
⺠We contest Zietsch & Santtila's (2011, Animal Behaviour, 82, 1097-1101) conclusions for the evolution of female orgasm. ⺠Zietsch & Santtila used inappropriate comparisons of different orgasmic properties. ⺠Zietsch & Santtila's analyses relied on linking correlated morphology with correlated function. ⺠Lack of correlation fully expected under by-product view. ⺠Zietsch & Santtila's findings are irrelevant to the by-product account for female orgasm.
