There has been
a considerable amount of discussion, both
here and in a variety of other places
regarding two issues that are somewhat
related – the G-Spot, and female
ejaculation. Over the course of the past
few months, as I’ve been working to put
together the CC web site, I’ve come across a
variety of informational tidbits about this
subject, and I’ve finally put together
something that helps explain what is going
on here.
The Clitoris
When most people
think of the clitoris (clit), they only
think of the little glans that is present
and (usually) visible. In reality, the
clitoris is a shaft that extends back into
the pelvic region of the female. The
clit/clitoral shaft derives from the exact
same tissue that forms the penis in the
male. In the image above, I have represented
the clitoral shaft and its nerve bundle
(that takes sensations from the clit to the
brain) with a pink outline. And,
although you cannot tell from this
representation, it is actually a forked
complex that travels along both sides of the
urethral tube, and back into the pelvis.
This position shown on the diagram is merely
representative, and each person will have a
different shape, different location, and
different design in how the complex is
constructed; not unlike the different shapes
and sizes of males penises.
The G-Spot
Notice how the
clitoral shaft/nerve comes very close to the
internal wall of the vagina. Just as with
the male penis, when a female experiences
sexual arousal, the clitoral shaft and
surrounding tissues become
engorged with blood and swell. As this
swelling takes place, you may feel it
through the vaginal wall. This swollen spot
is what you’re taught to feel for as the
identifying mark of the “G-Spot.” Since the
shaft may be in different locations, or even
different sizes, this helps explain why some
women have good response to G-spot
stimulation and others don’t. If a woman’s
clitoral shaft doesn’t come close enough to
the vaginal wall, then she may not be able
to enjoy G-Spot stimulation to the extent
that other women do.
 Many women report
different “types” of orgasms – some
clitorally induced, some vaginally induced,
some G-Spot induced, etc. This stems from the specific nerve bundles that are stimulated when each of those areas is toyed with. The pundendal nerve serves the clitoris, and the pelvic nerve serves the internal vaginal and cervical areas. They “feel” different because
there are different mechanisms brought to
bear at any give point in time to produce
them. Stimulation of the just the clit (glans)
itself results in a small (relative) orgasm
for some women; whereas stimulation and
muscular action against the greater
concentration of nerves along the vaginal wall inside the body may produce a much
stronger orgasm. For many women, their strongest orgasms result from the combined stimulation of both the clit and the G-Spot; this is often referred to as a "blended" orgasm.
Even in males a similar force is at work; stimulation
of just the head of the penis will produce a
much weaker orgasm than one derived from
stimulation of the entire length of the
penis. There are also a third and fourth set of nerves that may play a role in the female orgasm. The vagus nerve serves the uterus and cervical areas in women. The hypogastric nerve serves the same areas in women, and the scrotum in males (it also serves portions of the lower digestive system, which helps explain why males get nauseous when they get kicked or punched in the nuts).
The Skene’s Glands
The Skene’s Glands in
women are formed from the same tissue that
forms the prostate gland in males. The
prostate gland produces seminal fluid – the
watery component of semen that provides the
substrate that allows sperm to live and
thrive until and when ejaculation occurs. In
women, the Skene’s Glands produce a fluid
that is almost identical to the base
components of seminal fluid (according to
most chemical analyses).
As you can see in the
diagram, the Skene’s Glands have several
openings (ducts), both into the urethral
tube and immediately adjacent to the
urethral opening. It is through these ducts
that the fluid produced by the glands is
excreted. This is identical to the method
through which seminal fluid is introduced
into the urethra in the male as semen is
ejaculated. The glands and the fluid they
produce are not known to serve any useful
purpose whatsoever in the female.
Female ejaculation
There has been a lot
of debate, even in the medical community
about whether women actually “ejaculate” or
not. It appears that women can and do often
ejaculate the fluid produced by the Skene’s
Glands, through the ducts identified on the
diagram above. This ejaculation appears to
be caused by a combination of muscular
contractions along and near the clitoral
shaft (the PC muscles), and stimulation of the G-Spot. As you
can see, the clitoral shaft passes near the glands, and it is not unrealistic
to assume that massaging the G-Spot would
force any liquid in those glands out. As
with any other organ, different women will
have different size glands. Therefore, some
women may ejaculate greater amounts of fluid
than others, depending on how big her glands
are. Most women will ejaculate small amounts
of this fluid that is hardly perceptible to
anyone close enough to see what is going on.
Some porn videos (as well as anecdotal
evidence) suggest that some women can
ejaculate massive amounts of fluid this way.
It is not beyond comprehension that some
women may have much larger glands than
others, so, at least in theory, this appears
to be possible (it has not been disproven).
The fact that the
Skene’s Ducts are in and along the urethra
would also support an explanation as to why
some chemical analyses of the female
ejaculate sometimes show it to contain urine
or chemicals found in urine. Trace amounts
of urine remaining in the urethral tube
could be expected to mix in with the fluid
as it is ejaculated and, indeed, even
chemical analysis of male semen shows trace
amounts of urine in it.
Summary
As you can see, there
is a complex array of parts and processes at
work here. The fact that each person is
constructed differently, with varying sizes
of one organ or another, makes it difficult
to produce a “standardized” version of what
takes place. The basic concepts outlined
above are fairly well accepted by the
medical and sexological communities now,
however. Hopefully, this will give you some
understanding of what is taking place as you
discover your body (or that of your
partner.)
