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.
