Debate: Does the G-spot exist?

Sixty-two years after the first reference of the G-spot in medical literature, a Florida doctor thinks he’s found it.

According to CBC, Dr. Adam Ostrzenski described the spot as a sac structure with “bluish grapeline compositions” located on the back of the perineal membrane above the upper part of the urethra. Upon removal, the G-spot stretched up to 33 millimeters. Ostrzenski suggests it may expand and contract, acting like the female equivalent of the prostate gland.

The G-spot has long been coveted as responsible for female orgasms that are not triggered by clitoral stimulation. Its presence has long been disputed.

Ostrzenski unearthed the G-spot under five layers of connective tissue, in a single 83-year-old female cadaver.

Research into the G-spot’s location is difficult because it’s largely based on perception. There are a number of areas on the anterior vaginal wall – where the elusive G-spot is believed to be – that trigger orgasms. Differentiating where the highest sensitivity is – back, front, side – can be very difficult.

Studies are now using brain imaging and nerve pathways to better understand if the G-spot is actually a spot at all. It might actually be more like a ‘G zone’ that encompasses the anterior vaginal wall, the Skene’s glands (‘female prostate’) and ‘legs’ of the clitoris that straddle the vagina.

Do you think the G-spot exists?

It does exist, I know because my husband finds it EVERY time we make love. Women that doubt it need a more attentive lover!!

I have 2 separate females here that tell me it exists...if they can orgasm from stimulation of this spot, who am I to argue?

What I find funny is that the woman who wrote the article is not convinced the G-spot exists. Honey, you either need a better partner, or more bravery in exploring yourself. As the poster ahead of me commented, there is NO doubt in my mind that the G-spot indeed exists.

Everyone knows it exists. The research has been around forever and women have the ability to experience G-spot orgasms. You might as well ask if the man has a prostate, for goodness sake! oO

I read the three articals on "sex" I found them very good, but I have a question. No one ever talks about older folks and sex, why is this? Older people can still enjoy sex but it seems like it should be Taboo. I hope some one out thear will get with "sex and old farts" I would realy like to see what comes out of this. And if there is someone with the guts to wrght something that I don't miss it. Waiting with hot and cold sweats. Thank You W.W.
