The G Spot Revisited

This is a G Spot sex toy
So the debate rages on about whether or not the G Spot exists. From our standpoint, while the empirical data may be less than overwhelming, the number of G Spot sex toys that are manufactured and sold make a solid practical argument that someone is getting stimulation from the area Dr. Grafenberg first discussed. But once in a while, it’s good to look at recent discussions on the subject, especially if you want to experiment with this popular form of stimulation.
A recent article contained this sentence as its thesis: “Unlike men, women can orgasm in many different ways.” It then went on to list different anatomical features like, clitoris, vagina and G Spot. People who have read our work know that the article was then tossed aside. The reason? The clitoris and G Spot (such as it is considered to exist) are parts of the vagina! Why go through all of the complex possible permutations when one fact stands out? That fact is that each person finds a specific stimulation satisfying and can achieve orgasm through it.
Of all of the big mistakes a person can make, over-complicating sexual sensations is one of the biggest that can damage adult play time fun.
WebMD has a great section on this subject, which we think summarizes the argument over the G Spot very well:
“Prosterman and others point out the importance of thinking of the G-spot in context — that it may be an extension of the clitoral anatomy, which extends back into the vaginal canal. Kerner writes that the G-spot may be ‘nothing more than the roots of the clitoris crisscrossing the urethral sponge.’
Helen O’Connell, MD, head of the neurourology and continence unit at the Royal Melbourne Hospital Department of Urology in Australia, says, ‘The G-spot has a lot in common with Freud’s idea of vaginal orgasms. It is a sexual concept, this time anatomical, that results in confusion and has resulted in the misconception that female sexuality is extremely complex.’”
The article also contains this:

“In the end, whether this debated locus of pleasure is fact or fiction may not matter that much. O’Connell, who is also co-author of a 2005 Journal of Urology study on the anatomy of the clitoris, says that focusing on the G-spot to the exclusion of the rest of a woman’s body is ‘a bit like stimulating a guy’s testicles without touching the penis and expecting an orgasm to occur just because love is present.’ She says focusing on the inside of the vagina to the exclusion of the clitoris is ‘unlikely to bring about orgasm. It is best to think of the clitoris, urethra, and vagina as one unit because they are intimately related.’”
Ok, so what is the G Spot and where is it? The G Spot is an area which many women claim, if stimulated properly, can lead to intense orgasm. What it is, we aren’t qualified to say, though the base of the clitoris sounds like a good guess, since the clitoris can have a shaft of one to three inches and the G Spot is generally agreed to be located two to three inches inside the vagina on the upper wall.
Do you have a G Spot? That’s the question that you must answer. Experimenting with sensations is a great way to see whether or not this area adds something more to your orgasm experience. As we mentioned before, there are many quality G Spot sex toys designed to create that type of stimulation.
Let’s say for the sake of discussion that someone scientifically proves that the G Spot is a myth. If you achieve intense orgasms by stimulating the area one to three inches inside on the vagina’s upper wall, does it matter? Learning what works for you is an art, not a science.
So enjoy your next orgasm, wherever you find it. And don’t be afraid to experiment. Why should you be, it isn’t exactly a science!
