What is the G-Spot

The first thing to remember about G-Spots is that they are just one of the many erogenous zones on the female body, and the second is that not everyone has one, or finds it sensitive enough to cause any significant sexual benefits. There are a lot of myths surrounding the G-spot, and practitioners of tantric sex have claimed for years that this ’sacred’ spot is highly erotic and can provide hours or pleasure, but in reality no one really knows what the G-spot is, or why some women have them and others do not.

Where is the G-Spot?
If you have a G-Spot it should be around 2-5cm inside the vagina on the front wall, and you should be able to feel it with your finger. When you are not aroused it will be quite small, no bigger than a pea, but once you are aroused it increases in size and can be as large as a 2 pence piece. The G-Spot is a slightly more textured area than the rest of the vagina wall, which is smooth and will feel slightly knobbly, some women explain it as feeling a bit like the surface of a walnut shell.

G-Spot Theories
The gynaecologist Ernst Gräfenberg first described the G-Spot in scientific terms in 1944, and this was named after him as the Gräfenberg Spot, shortened to G-Spot, but doctors still don’t really know what is really is. One theory is that it is an area of tissue related to the prostate gland in male bodies, because it has a similar sort of sensitivity to this gland, but that it did not develop in the womb because of the lack of the male Y chromosome. Other experts believe that there is no such thing as a G-spot, but rather that the whole of the front wall of the vagina is an erogenous zone, as it is closely link to other pleasure zones of the clitoris and the urethra. One more theory tells us that the G-Spot is actually a powerful natural pain killing aid for childbirth, as test have discovered that stimulation of this area can increase the pain threshold by up to as much as 84%, even over 100% upon the point of orgasm.

Benefits of the G-Spot
If you do have a sensitive G-Spot then it really is very simple to take advantage of this additional erogenous zone to create intense pleasure. You will need to practice touching the G-spot first yourself, to understand how it gives you pleasure, so gently insert you finger into your vagina and just practise stroking or tapping the G-Spot to see how it feels. This can be a bit strange at first, and some women report that when the G-Spot is not fully aroused touching it can make you feel like you need a wee, but this is simply because the spot is close to the urethra. During sex intercourse penetration can be utilised to apply pressure to the G-spot and create intense sensations, and you may have to try a few different positions to get this right, and many women find that penetration from behind when on all fours or bending over can have the best effects on the G-spot.
