dunno about that, given the strides in technology, like the ability to determine which centers of the brain are active during sexual pleasure.
The other answers here tended to focus on duration, intensity or frequency of orgasm, but don't get at my question: do sexual pleasure and orgasm *feel* the same for men and women. I don't know how to describe sexual pleasure in terms of some other kind of pleasure. (All I can say is "it has an oh-so-good feeling.") It has its own specific "flavor" the way a food has a specific flavor that can't be described in terms of other flavors but we know what it's like to taste that food.
I'm guessing that if food tastes the same for men and women (generally, with individual variations/exceptions), and if other things have the same experience-quality for both sexes, then the same goes for the experience of sexual pleasure even if intensity, duration or frequency vary. If the brains and nervous systems of men and women were different from one another when it comes to physical sensations, we'd have heard about that, and we'd then have a good reason to think they might experience sensations differently.
Really good evidence of similar "feel" would be if both men's and women's sex organs had the same kinds of nerve endings or structures. Unfortunately I haven't gotten good info from google about what the nerves in sex organs are like that makes them so different feels-wise from nerves elsewhere.
that's a long response but, again, it looks like we don't know or we don't know yet. Actually, we probably don't know what it means to know in this case.

l wonder if a hermaphrodite with both genitals could weigh into this, only having both would one be able to really differentiate between the two orgasms, and l wonder if they can have two orgasms at once... and lm not sure lve ever seen a real one even on the net, most have been made up to look like they have both sets of genitalia, the closest lve seen is a bloke that had a vagina added under his balls *lix*
Hermaphrodism is a disease... It's extremely rare and I don't think they can feel both. But I'm not an expert. I've only read some stuff online.

highly unlikely since we're built for different purposes and have totally different tackle to play with.. cant be anything like the same if women can have heaps of orgasms from different places and feelings and blokes usually blow once .. mostly from just stimulating their cock *lix*

Well sexual pleasure clearly cannot be the same for a large number of women as for men since we know that women can experience multi orgasms and that the later orgasms are usually deeper than the first ones.
Individual female orgasms usually last much longer than male orgasms although there is a range of experience
Also, women experience a more full body sensation at orgasm than do men and it is well recorded that female orgasms are not so genitally centred as for men.
Lastly, it's known that women have a much more emotional expereince at orgasm than do men....so , fairly different thing for most women compared to most men.
