Understanding the G-spot

Wikipedia is refreshingly realistic about the lack of factual evidence: “The Gräfenberg Spot, or G-Spot, is a controversial term used to describe the area of the female vagina that might contain an erogenous zone which when stimulated can lead to high levels of sexual arousal and powerful orgasms. Although research on the g-spot has taken place since 1981, arguments over its existence, the actual definition of the term, and its location continue to control discussions in the medical field as well as in studies of sexuality.“
Let’s take a look at our pelvic anatomy by focusing on the similarities between men and women. First, let’s tick off the anus. Men and women are identical here and both sexes can enjoy anal stimulation, given a sensitive lover.
Next, we both have genitals (penis/clitoris) so oral and manual masturbation techniques can be effective for both sexes (note: mental arousal is needed before physical stimulation can be effective – this is crucial to understanding female sexuality since women’s sexual arousal is not as automatic as men’s tends to be).
There is also a difference in size of the genital organs. The male genitals – at least the parts we can see outside the body are much bigger. A man’s penis (when erect) must be a hundred times bigger than a woman’s clitoris …
Of course, inside is a different story. Both organs reach back into the pelvis and include muscles of the pelvic area of the body (basically in between the hips). When you are sexually aroused, the external organ becomes erect but also you have an erection of the muscles internal to the body that become engorged when the person is sexually aroused.
If you are able to stimulate the person in this pelvic area when they are already aroused, this would stimulate their already engorged and physically aroused internal erection. For men you have no option but to stimulate his internal erection through the anus because there is no other opening.
In fact, there is also a male G-spot, which is the prostrate gland and accessible by penetrating a man anally. Some women do enjoy sharing physical intimacy with a partner but even so I wonder how many women explore that one…
For a woman, you have two options. The anal option is obviously directly equivalent to the male. There is also the option of stimulating her internal erection through her vagina. The vaginal opening is the one absolute difference between the sexes. However, unless you want a baby there is no need to be overly distracted by the vagina.
The vagina is part of the birth canal and so it has very few nerve endings. A woman is unlikely to be able to feel a man’s penis inside her even if he is built like a horse. I have found vaginal fisting much more arousing than vaginal intercourse when my partner uses all the fingers of one hand to penetrate my vagina.
I have only become aware of my own physical arousal (swollen and moist) since around my mid-thirties. I have also around this time experienced physical orgasms from vaginal fisting and from anal sex. Both would stimulate an internal erection and these experiences are the closest I have ever come to what other people may be calling a G-spot orgasm.
Scepticism and uncertainty speak for themselves. If every woman experiences G-spot orgasms as easily as is implied then no man would ever need to ask about giving his woman an orgasm. It evidently is not that easy and that is certainly my experience.
