Today's Tea Musk Ripped Headline deals with the vexing problem of the G Spot or as it is often called "The Female Pleasure Zone". This is the text used in the headline: Hardened Italian Stallions Volunteer for G Spot Research Italian researcher Emmanuele Jannini, says, "YES, the G spot does exist", British New Scientist reports. Jannini tested just twenty women using an ultrasound scan to locate the fabled and elusive pleasure spot. Women who do not have a G spot should not despair, according to the New Scientist report. Experienced Italian G Spot researchers, living in Great Britain, have volunteered their services to confirm Jannini's belief that the G spot is missing in British women who don't experience vaginal orgasm.

A Dry Spot of Research From Wiki

The Gräfenberg spot, or G-spot, is a small area in women behind the pubic bone surrounding the urethra and accessible through the anterior wall of the vagina. It is an erogenous zone that when stimulated leads to high levels of sexual arousal and powerful orgasms.

There is much dispute among the scientific community about the existence of the G-spot; most strong support is from sexology books for the popular audience.

Lack of Scientific Evidence

To date, however, empirical investigations of the G-spot have yielded questionable results.The few studies attempting to locate the G-spot more precisely have yielded little positive evidence, yet only from small participant samples, and questionable investigation methods.

Other researchers have attempted to locate the G-spot by building on the claim that G-spot stimulation leads to female ejaculation. In their study they examined tissue from 18 patients and demonstrated that 15 showed prostate-specific antigens.

Conclusion

Further research and testing is required.

BBC Report on The G-spot

The G-spot has always been controversial - some women say it's essential for orgasms while others say it's non-existent. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall looks at how to find it, what to do with it - and why it doesn't matter if you haven't got one.

What is it?
For many women, it's a highly sensitive, highly erotic area that provides hours of pleasure. For others it's a knobbly bit that, when touched too much, creates an overwhelming sensation of needing a wee. Some women can't feel any sensation at all while others don't seem to have one at all.

New book's theory hits the commercial spot

G is for Gräfenberg, Ernst, a German gynecologist and sex researcher.

Spot is for what he reported discovering in some women in the course of research into birth control methods in the 1940s: a patch of erectile tissue in the front wall of the vagina, directly behind the pubic bone, that acts something like a second clitoris. G spot is for the new book about that odd finding, published amid considerable commercial hubbub: a first printing of 150,000 hardback copies by Holt, Rinehart and Winston, and deals with six book clubs.

The G Spot and Other Recent Discoveries About Human Sexuality makes the case for the existence of a bean-shaped erogenous zone in women; when this spot is stimulated by deep pressure, it produces vaginal orgasm, distinctly different from clitoral orgasm. The spot amounts to a "female prostate gland," say the three authors, Alice Kahn Ladas, a New York psychologist; Beverly Whipple, a registered nurse and sex counselor in southern New Jersey; and John D. Perry, a Connecticut psychologist.

Bigger is better when it comes to the G spot

Exclusive from New Scientist Print Edition.

The elusive G spot: where it is - if you've got one

Drugs such as Viagra should work for some women - especially if they have a big G spot. This spot, famed for producing spectacular orgasms, turns out to be awash with the enzymes that these drugs act on.

The term G spot, coined by Ernest Gräfenberg in 1950, refers to an area a few centimetres up inside the vagina on the side closest to a woman's stomach (see diagram). Buried in the flesh here are the Skene's glands, the female equivalent of the prostate gland.
