Usually I ignore or disapprove of anecdotal evidence. However, in this case it is the only evidence that counts. I have never had trouble achieving orgasm from clitoral manipulation but have never come during intercourse - I don’t have great vaginal sensitivity I guess. However one day my former boyfriend showed me something. Or, rather did something: he turned his hand upside down and put his fingers in me and pressed up against the front of the vaginal area and oh my. It is not the same as clitoral stimulation but it is a very very heady sensation and well worth experiencing. In conjunction with whatever it takes to achieve orgasm it is almost unbearably exquisite.

According to him he learned it from a book, and since he is a deliciously bookish sort it makes sense.

Maybe it doesn’t show in a lab under unaroused clinical conditions, but there is some spot there that is substantially different than the rest. The only thing I can recommend is trying it either as recipient or giver. Worth it believe me.

I agree that usually anecdotal evidence is for the birds. But I know what I feel, and what I have felt. It is much _much_ different from clitoral orgasm. It’s so intense that I can only take direct stimulation for a no more than 10 or 15 seconds. If this spot doesn’t exist, then why exactly am I feeling it? Right in the place it should be?

I too, felt a certain sense of vindication when I read about the study that showed no unusually dense nerve matrix where the “G spot” was professed to be. I always felt the G-spot to be something of a canard. However, it does appear that it feels good if the anterior region is stimulated (including during intercourse - or so my girlfriend tells me).

Another possibility is that by attempting to reach the “G-spot”, there is simply more stimulation. Every discussion I’ve read about the “G” indicates that it’s relatively deep inside. So reaching for “it” may overcome a certain tentativeness in penetration.

It’s probably a combination of real (but modest) physiological elements, a belief it exists, and more vigorous stimulation in general.

=====

As to using which hand to wipe. In the brief comments on the subject, it’s suggested that people use the left hand for scatological purposes because of a religious injunction. It’s my understanding that right-handed people naturally use the left, and left-handed people use the right. In locales where sanitary facilities are limited, this tends to create problems when right and left-handed people interact. The right-handed being the significant majority, they set the rules.

The mysterious G spot.

Almost no clinician or scientific study I am aware of will tell you it exists, but many a happy woman has been the recipient of profound physical pleasure of this most wonderful place when found.

By my experience, every woman has “that place” that with a little effort will bring the least sensitive woman to astronomical delight.

From what I’ve experienced with women, I wish I had one too…but then again they say men do, although I’m not going there. hehe

Just thought id give my two cents worth on this topic.

In my expereince I have found that women do have a G-Spot and most have the ability to have gushing orgasms.

As Alley wrote above the way to stimulate the area is to insert 1 or 2 (or 3, depending on your girl) fingers into her vagina. With your palm facing upwards, hook your fingers around upwards and apply pressure to the vaginal wall in the area that would be directly under where the clitoris is. The vaginal wall around here has a different feeling, almost like a ribbed type of texture. Stimulate this area with fingers in a rythmic fashion, whilst getting your partner to stimulate her clitoris from above. I find this ‘double hit’ on the clitoris and vaginal wall G-Spot to be quite effective in bringing on an orgasm.

I am also told that this orgasm is different in feeling to a clitoral or vaginal orgasm (one brought on by activities such as fisting) and is QUITE intense. Also it is noted that it is quite hard to manually stimulate the G-Spot, and nearly always requires a partner to do so, as it is just out of reach with an outstretched arm.

Logic seems to point out that the G-Spot is actually the back of the clitoris, the part that is normally not scene (as it is buried in tissue), and normally not stimulated either, though im sure there is a HEAP of nerve endings down there. There are actually deep clitoral piercings (body) that you can get that will also stimulate the back of the clit (trianlge piercing), so Im sure the area is known to people who expereiment and play with their bodies.

Female gushing orgasms is another topic which i have a little bit of knowledge about. From my expereince most women have the ability to gush, but not all are willing to go the hard yards to do it.

The female ejaculate, while occasionally containing traces of urine is actually the ‘wetness’ produced during foreplay and intercourse. The key to gushing is about building up and orgasm, the stopping, building up, then stopping, and so on. This may need to be done for 1 to several hours (2-3, though more if your able to, and have the will power).

This continual stopping and starting of the orgasm produces more and more wetness, which builds up in the vagina. Eventually when the orgasm is reached it is much more intense (due to the sexual energy being built up), which makes the vagina spasm, squirting the built up wetness from the vaginal opening.

The key to gushing but is masturbation, I have never seen anyone gush from sexual intercourse, only manual stimulation.

Hope this bit of information clears some things up 🙂

Keep playing

Why not? My first post here (over 2 years ago, so unfortunately I can’t search for and reference it) was on exactly this subject.

I feel pretty much the same way I did then about the G-spot: my intimate experiences with a number of women since reading the 1982 [Ladas/Whipple/Perry book](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0440130409/ref=ed_oe_p/107-8057459-6802944) on the subject not only demonstrated to my satisfaction (and theirs!) that it’s real. I’d say it’s proved to be the greatest thing since sliced bread, only it’s presumably been around since well _before_ sliced bread.

I’m flummoxed by the fact that doubts remain respecting its existence. If I weren’t married, I’d cheerfully volunteer to remedy any female skeptics’ doubts on the subject.

My experience with this was extremely different from that of INSANE1. The only GF of mine who had ejaculations at orgasm, could be brought to such an orgasm within a few minutes. The ejaculation in question _didn’t_ result from a buildup of fluids.

AFAICT, the G-spot and female ejaculation are two independent phenomena. They apparently get lumped together because the book I cited in my previous post introduced both subjects into the popular awareness.

To all of you lovely ladies out there, if you do not know where this allegedly elusive G-Spot is, please find someone who does.  
I have learned that my women always seem to go quite insane when I stimulate theirs. But I always only use one finger…(three?).  
Anyway, try it, from my own experience (As a guy giving pleasure to women), it is very real, and it is obviously very good.  
But why do the doctors still deny it’s existence?

I think that’s the real question. Obviously all the women who absolutely _know_ that it exists, and can feel it aren’t making it up. Shoot, a doctor or a scientist could feel it if they want to. (Those would be some interesting experiments…) So, why keep denying that it’s real? Or why keep denying that it could be real?  
I have some crazy theories, but they all seem pretty farfetched…so maybe the simplest one is the best: They just don’t care.  
But hey, what do I know?

It’s kind of hard to believe no one cares. Scientists love finding things that nobody has studied before in order to sort of stake a claim. I think this is just a difficult thing to study. Anatomists like big diagrams with circles and arrows, not vague descriptions. Cecil’s column said there was a study where the scientists did feel and felt something in 5 out of 11 women. But what is the associated anatomy? Tough to figure out without taking the whole thing apart. And since the G-spot (according to reports) does not become apparent except during arousal, pinpointing it during the dissection of a cadaver would prove challenging.

I offered an opinon on this a few months ago:

[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=84428](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=84428)

The article I referred to said that the g-spot was a ‘gynecological UFO,’ meaning that lots of folks saw them but no one could document them (?) WTF?

Looks like we can, are glad that we can, and can only pity the spouses of the researchers.

Well, that’s not entirely accurate. For purely scientific reasons, I asked my husband to find it. Right away. No warning, no arousal. He found it without any problem at all. I asked if he could feel a difference there, he said he could. I certainly could.

This has been my experience as well. Regardless of arousal, some women maintain a distinct “spot” or region of comparatively more dense tissue on the inner wall of the vagina that can be found quite easily. I don’t understand what the scientific dilemna is with concluding,

```
 "hmmmm, looky what we have here... I thinkum this'res a G spot!"
```

I stand corrected. After discussing this with my girlfriend I was informed that she now has total control over whether she will gush or not, and that it can be brought on quite quickly now by herself.

Whatever it is, my wife is sure it’s real, and she too claims it’s a very different feeling. Lucky wench, I only get one kind.

One technique that seems to work extremely well is to alternate between clitoral and internal orgasms; a clitoral orgasm makes the G-spot much more sensitive, perhaps due to blood engorgement.

Methinks Cecil needs to get into the trenches (so to speak) and gather some data points of his own.

Then, I don’t know. I am not an anatomy expert, but if you have a very sensitive area you would expect to find very dense nerve endings, and I do not believe there are any in that region approaching the density found on the clitoris. I had always assumed (from descriptions of where the G-spot is) that the sensations came from stimulating the clitoris from the other side, or from stimulating the part of the clitoral body that is not externally exposed. The texture you’re feeling could be the urethra, or the Skene’s gland and it may be completely unrelated to what actually is causing the sensations.

At any rate, I do believe folks are looking. Female sexuality is an understudied field, but it is studied. And I’ll bet that there is a young scientist out there who is devoting his life to the G-spot. 😉
