We’ve all heard of the G-spot, but what about the A-spot?  Turns out that both men & women have an A-spot, but they’re not in the same, um, spot.

For men, the A-spot is the prostate gland reached via the rectum.  A partner should place a condom over a finger or vibrator, lubricate it well, and insert it about 3-4 inches up the man’s rectum.  Feel around for the prostate, which is about the size of a walnut and harder than the surrounding area.  Gently massage the prostate while also providing manual or oral simulation on the man’s penis and genitals.  Be sure to listen carefully to the man to ensure there is no pain or discomfort.  The result should be a rather explosive orgasm.  (diagram and details)

On women, the A-spot, also known as the “Anterior Fornix Erogenous Zone,” is located halfway between the cervix and G-spot on the front wall of the vagina.  The A-spot is a spongy, wrinkled lump and extremely sensitive to the touch.  There are even classes to help women discover and manipulate their A-spot.  Stimulation of an A-spot can result in increased vaginal lubrication and stronger orgasms.  (source)

Of course, this begs the question:  Where are the B, C, D, E and F-spots?

Many lovers are in hot pursuit of the Holy Grail of erogenous zones: the G-spot. Named after Dr. Ernest Grafenberg who coined the term in 1950, the G-spot didn’t become part of popular culture until the 1982 book, “The G Spot & Other Recent Discoveries About Human Sexuality.”

So what’s the big deal? The G-spot orgasm. Also referred to as a “vaginal” or “internal” orgasm, this type of climax involves the whole uterus, vagina and pelvic region. When stimulated, the G-spot activates one of the most powerful nerves in the body, the pelvic nerve. This nerve is connected to the uterus, urethra, bladder, pubococcygeus and uterine muscles, giving whole new meaning to the term, “Big O.” Many women have described the G-spot orgasm as a “deeper, more emotional and longer-lasting climactic high.” (source)

Yet a study published in the “International Society for Sexual Medicine” suggests that not all women have a G-spot. Gynecological ultrasounds showed the tissue between the urethra and vagina was thicker in those women who claimed to have had a G-spot orgasm. Some researchers believe the G-spot doesn’t exist at all and is “a sort of gynecological UFO: much searched for, much discussed, but unverified by objective means.”

So does the G-spot exist? Please comment below with your experiences.
