G-spot: Fact or fiction?



I just posted a blog that features a youtube video in which comedian Margaret Cho is speaking to The View panel about the G-Shot. She apparently underwent a procedure that injects collagen into the g-spot in order to create easier arousal. It didn't work for her and I find the very idea quite unnecessary.

I also found a youtube video where Margaret Cho speaks about the g-spot in one of her comedy routines. She talks about her difficulty in finding her own g-spot.

(I don't like her use of the word "pussy" in this piece as I think it is sexist. That's another story though. In the future I'll probably write a post on aggressive language.)

The elusive g-spot seems to be a topic of discussion among many when it comes to sex and sexuality.

The g-spot or Grafenberg Spot (named after its discoverer, a German gynaecologist called Ernst Grafenberg) is a small and sensitive area located 2-5 inches inside the vagina on the front upper wall. The g-spot is said to be the female equivalent of the male prostate gland.

The g-spot was named in 1952 but was not brought into public consciousness until 1982.

The g-spot is bean shaped group of nerves tissues located halfway between the back of the pubic bone and the top of the cervix. The size and position of the g-spot differs from women to women, but it is usually about the size of a quarter, and lies 2-3 inches inside the vagina directly behind the pubic bone. The G spot is often though to be the back end of the clitoris.

The purpose of this blog is not to discuss how to arouse the g-spot but rather if the g-spot exists in all women.

According to a 2008 article from Foxnews online (but of course how reliable is Fox news really?) a small 2008 study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine has concluded that not all women have a g-spot.

Emmanuele Jannini of the University of L'Aquila in Italy used an ultrasound to scan the area of the vagina where the G-spot. Jannini determined that the tissue on the front vaginal wall located behind the urethra was noticeably thicker in the women who reported having vaginal orgasms. The thicker tissue, the study concluded, demonstrates the presence of a G-spot.

According to another 2008 article the study is inconclusive and is in need of further study. Many "sexperts" seem to think however, that it is a matter of individuality. That not all women will be aroused by a g-spot they way some others might. Just as some men may not enjoy prostate stimulation.



For those in persuit of the g-spot orgasm or the blended orgasm which involves g-spot and clitoral arousal, I say go forth. However, I say it's important not to downplay the parts that are already pleasurable.
