Give me back my G-spot.
I’m sick of studies attempting to prove the G-spot doesn’t exist. After all this time and effort getting medical science to recognize the G-spot’s existence why are we turning right back around and attempting to dis-prove its existence? This is back in the news again because scientists from King’s College in London came out with a new study suggesting that the G-spot is suggestive.
Times online reports that the scientists conducted the study as follows: “In the research, 1,804 British women aged 23-83 answered questionnaires. All were pairs of identical or non-identical twins. Identical twins share all their genes, while non-identical pairs share 50% of theirs. If one identical twin reported having a G-spot, this would make it far more likely that her sister would give the same answer. But no such pattern emerged, suggesting the G-spot is a matter of the woman’s subjective opinion.
While 56% of women overall claimed to have a G-spot, they tended to be younger and more sexually active. Identical twins were no more likely to share the characteristic than non-identical twins.”
Ok, so more than half of women felt that they did have a G-spot, and the ones that felt that way were more sexually active. This seems to me to point towards the G-spot existing. The vagina has muscle tone like any other part of a person’s body. My belief is that people who work their vagina in a way that uses the G-spot know that it exists, and the rest are not in touch with that part of their body. People who don’t work their triceps don’t tend to think much about their existence, but that doesn’t mean that people who use their triceps and know they are there are wrong about having them. The study uses identical twins, but it doesn’t control for the type of sex they are having, and I doubt that they are having identical amounts of sex, or even the same types of sex.
Beverly Whipple, a researcher who believes strongly in the existence of the G-spot called their research “flawed”, and we couldn’t agree more. Not everyone feels their G-spot, not everyone has G-spot based orgasms, but many people do, and dismissing their experience as imaginary is insulting and infuriating. For all of you out there who enjoy your G-spot, please keep at it!

I hold the same opinion as you. You don’t exercise your vaginal muscles regularly, your G-Spot is not as readily felt. I bet the scientists in this study were primarily made up of men as many women’s health studies seem to be that are adopted in the mainstream and published. I say POWER TO THE PUSSY… G-Spot UP!

I just don’t get why this is so complicated. Women, were told, for how long, that sex was for men and no one ever told them that they could even have an orgasm, or even enjoy it at all for that matter. Then this great idea of stimulating the clitoris started being talked about.
The majority of women, and men, still think that most, or all women, can have an orgasm with only penetration.
The g-spot & the clitoris are a part of all women’s anatomy. If you don’t use it, look for it, stimulate it, etc. you may not ever notice it.
You cannot have a study where you just ask people if they think they have a g-spot. It is ridiculous.
You could also ask people if they enjoy anal sex. I’m sure a ton of people would say HELL NO, and most of them had never even tried it.
This is just a silly study to me. I just think it’s a shame that this headline was splashed everywhere. I feel like it was taking a step backward in women’s sexuality.
