G-SPOT: Last year, an article was published in the Journal Of Sexual Medicine claiming that the g-spot is a real thing. But THINGS HAVE CHANGED, ladies.
Jezebel reports: “According to a study out of King’s College, London, the legendary g-spot, source of a million Cosmo articles and bad jokes ending with “am I right, ladies?”, is actually a total myth with no scientific basis whatsoever.”
1,800 women were surveyed, making it the largest study of its kind. The Times of London explains that “Andrea Burri, who led the research, said she was anxious to remove feelings of “inadequacy or underachievement” that might affect women who feared they lacked a G-spot.”
Beverly Whipple, emeritus professor at Rutgers University, New Jersey, helped to popularise the G-spot, dismissed the findings of the British study as “flawed” for not including the experiences of lesbian or bisexual women or considering the effects of Papi’s Circle Trick or your super special technique. Jezebel summarizes:
In other words, the answer as to whether or not you have a g-spot may just lie entirely in your own head, though it’s hard to dismiss the idea that many women may believe they have (or don’t have) a g-spot based on what they read in magazines, see on television, or hear in really bad jokes…am I right ladies?

READING: The Naked and the Conflicted: For a literary culture that fears it is on the brink of total annihilation, we are awfully cavalier about the Great Male Novelists of the last century. It has become popular to denounce those authors, and more particularly to deride the sex scenes in their novels.

SLAP HAPPY: Reconciling the Identities of Feminist & Butch Top: “A few years ago, a girl I dated wanted me to slap her. I was terrified of what it would mean for me, as a masculine person, as a butch, to be more dominating in bed. To like it. To like to cause someone pain. To like to cause a woman pain. To hit someone in the face. To hit a woman in the face, to sexualize that act and that power dynamic specifically … I was paralyzed by that terror – I wanted to do it, the idea, the very thought of it, the discussions with her, turned me on, the girl I was dating wanted me to do it, but I couldn’t…” (@sugarbutch)

I gotta admit, sideboob is one of my favorite things about ladies… right up there with the collarbone and side of the neck from behind the ear leading down to the collarbone. I guess it’s just a woman’s profile that I find most striking.
I too, indulge in a little sideboob on the occasion.
I actually think that I am perhaps not big into the sideboob, it makes me nervous that it’s going to be a whole boob soon and then embarrassing.
Yea, that is why I would not personally sport the sideboob, but I am all for some hot brave ladies who will so that I can appreciate it.
why are people always trying to prove the g spot doesn’t exist? i understand wanting to assuage women’s feelings of sexual inadequacy but is the best way to do that really by telling millions of other women that something they understand to be a part of their physiology and sexuality is really just in their heads? it’s like trying to prove that mustard tastes good. some people can take a hand, and some people can’t take a hand.
and some people can take a fist and some people can’t take a fist. AM I RIGHT, LADIES?
LMAO!
Yeah I find the title for the tumblr a little disconcerting. I wondered as I clicked the link if I was about to enter into a site totally dedicated to merkins.
and then you saw lots of lithe girls in bedsheets with cute butts who had little shafts of light illuminating their perfect skin!
OH MY JENNY SCHECTER!! I just now get that stacy merkin=vagina wig. Yesterday I was watching a interview with Lucy Lawless about Spartucus and she was talking about merkins. Never heard of it before. I read your comment, took a shower and then it hit me! stacy “MERKIN” is a f-ing vagina wig! LOL. It was funny before but now its hilarious
Not that I would ever complain, but where did the Willow/Tara pictures fit into this post?
I enjoy spontaneous Buffy references in any context.
For NSFW Sunday we sort of use photos like we use links, just as pictures we found this week that we thought were sexy and lesbionic, little features in and of themselves!
Thanks for the update on the G-spot debate and link to my site. For women who have experienced their G-spot, they know it does exist. I feel like we are entering the dark ages again when women had hysteria because they weren’t allowed to masturbate. Thankfully some keen doctor invented the vibrator and liberated women’s orgasms! Hopefully some day we can do the same for the G-spot.
Um… Just me or does this Gspot thing seem stupid? The study makes no sense. They just asked twins if they have a Gspot or not? Isnt it WIDELY possible that some women simply haven’t found or had a partner who was able to find her Gspot? Hell, I recently introduced a 37 yr old woman to hers, and she’s had many sexual partners before me. This study proves nothing except that any asshole can create a study and get internet famous for it. Gotta love a “scientific” study done completely on anecdotal evidence.
I was actually thinking the very same thing. I also showed a 40ish year old woman where her clit was (working in a sex toys store and using a chart) for the first time last year. Just because she didn’t know she had one (or where it was) doesn’t make clits a myth.
that tumblr is awesome. I like the quotes they use alot too.
the SuicideGirls photos are really hot. just saying.
Must. Learn. The ways of Papi’s Magic Circles.
And I don’t know about this whole iffy sitch on the g-spot, but I KNOW some girls, if not all, can squirt. I made that happen to a girl twice. *bow* And I read a pretty funny jezebel article about it: http://jezebel.com/351263/shejaculation-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-gush
Great link and read! Thanks!
no problem =]
conan o’brien just made a joke about the g-spot thing and so i felt the need to comment now
It exists, lucky women know it – and hopeful couples spend time hunting for it. Maybe the g-spot is just something you cannot define.
