Every time I turn around it seems like scientists are arguing about whether the G-spot exists. What’s your take?
Is the G-spot real? — E.M., Pennsylvania
The G-spot is real, even if it hasn’t been scientifically proven. There’s an abundance of anecdotal evidence (and orgasms) to support its existence. Most of the published research has been on too-small test groups or didn’t have enough peer review to be conclusive. But that’s how science works; it takes a long time to scientifically prove something.
I believe in the G-spot. In fact, I’m more confident in the existence of the G-spot than I am in the existence of aliens or Jesus. I believe in the G-spot because, unlike Jesus or aliens, I have regular encounters with the G-spot. There’s one in my vagina that I’ve become dependent on. And I’ve found one inside every vagina with which I’ve had the pleasure of intimate acquaintance.
When I put my fingers into a vagina — any vagina — after some feeling around, I find a patch of tissue that feels different from the area around it and that swells and responds to my manipulations. If I do a good job of massaging this spot, it rewards me and my partner with an orgasm.
Have faith in the G-spot. It’s definitely out there!
