Must have been all men scientists.
Many women swear they have one, but a new review of 60 years of sex research shows science still can't definitively find the G-spot.
Researchers have used surveys, imaging scans and biopsies of women, all trying to locate and define the presumably orgasmic area on the vaginal wall known as the G-spot. Based on a review of 96 published studies, an Israeli and American research team came to one conclusion.
"Without a doubt, a discreet anatomic entity called the G-spot does not exist," said Dr. Amichai Kilchevsky, a urology resident at Yale-New Haven Hospital in Connecticut, and lead author of the review, published Jan. 12 in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

(115,103 posts)Not all women have the physiology to make it easy to stimulate, but it's there.
'We don't have the technology to detect it'
Junk science is so tiring.
It's part of the clitoris you ****** wastes of funding.

(27,787 posts)It was NEVER in the same place!!!!!
My theory is this ... while it is true that as the research says, there is no physical "discreet anatomic entity" that you can call the G-spot, via my own "field studies" (unpublished), I've come to conclude, that a "specific" woman's level of sensitivity is not anatomically uniform, or easily localized. Each is like a snowflake.
As an example ... and I'm trying to be delicate here ... I've known women who were so sensitive in one very well known location (rhymes with "Dolores", for Seinfeld fans), that those found it painful when touched ... whereas others ... well ... they preferred and enjoyed a much more *ahem* "vigorous approach" to that same area.
And so, I always thought of the search for the G-spot as kind of analogous to the search for some one's ticklish spots. Some people are more ticklish in some areas, and less so in others. Same here. You can't just assume that everyone is sensitive in the same spots.
From my perspective, I guess ... a key part of the fun was the search for "big foot" ... ooops ... I mean the "G-spot".
redqueen
(115,103 posts)we have a basic physiology. Whether people are sensitive or like it rough is a matter of personal taste, not how their flesh is constructed. Most have the same basic anatomy. ****sakes.
ceile
(8,692 posts)but I have met women who are incredibly sensitive. Nothing to do with "personal taste".
redqueen
(115,103 posts)The idea that we don't all have g-spots or they might be located in various places around our vaginas, however, is ludicrous.
slutticus
(3,428 posts)And I can say with certainty that what you say is false. g-spots are in fact in various locations....and not just in the vagina! They can be anywhere. Earlobes. Thighs. Toes. Kneecap. Neck. Eyelid.
redqueen
(115,103 posts)we can say it's in our bank accounts for all anyone cares.
Meanwhile, it is actually the underside of the clitoral whatever it's called... and some women's physiology makes it so that theirs is more easily stimulated, or some not at all.

I was informed of where it was when I was 16, even though the word really didn't exist in common parlance in 1961, by a girl I was seriously involved with. I can attest to its existence.

(24,979 posts)Everyone's going to have their single most sensitive spot that they like to receive visitors. It "doesn't exist" only insofar as one falsely assumes it's going to be an organ.

(10,960 posts)It may be that certain nerves around the bladder have a particular and exagerated effect during sexual arrousal.
It may well be a technique more than an anatomical feature. That doesn't mean that no woman has g-spot orgasms.

(26,449 posts)Not everyone is ticklish, but some are. I think the G Spot is similar in nature, it just tickles a different part of the brain.
People are simply more or less ticklish.
