Female Ejaculation (warning science content!)

[MarieDelta]

Here's an article from the New Scientist on female ejaculation:

Everything you always wanted to know about female ejaculation (but were afraid to ask) (http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20227101.200-everything-you-always-wanted-to-know-about-female-ejaculation-but-were-afraid-to-ask.html?page=1)


Among the interesting quotes in this article-


One marker it did contain, however, was prostate-specific antigen, or PSA. That's the same chemical produced by the prostate gland in men.

Highly interesting

Great article.. It's funny though, how male functions are deemed natural and purposeful. Women's functions are deemed controversial. I ejaculate, I know its not urine, the g-spot does exist!


If our vaginas were were penises they would be so understood.. inside and out.

Very interesting dear thank you for posting that.

Were that true, erectile dysfunction would not exist. Medicines do not equal cures, they equal money making treatments for Doctors. I know it's hard to see the blind spots in understanding when it comes to men, but if you sit and think from our side of things you would be aware how insulting these kind of statements are.

But at the same time there ARE people working on Erecile Dysfuntion among other "male" based sexual issues.. Where in the case of Women we are over looked most times and told that its not necessary in our case or that its just a Myth and we should move on.

Men expect to "get off" and have an Orgasm and Cum every time they have sex.

Women are told if you dont too bad..

I dont see how thats fair...

It's funny how your only example still proves my point. Erectile Dys is a medically recognized disorder. I didn't say they could FIX the penis. Only that it was understood enough, and study enough, and recognized enough. But women's conditions are still wildly misunderstood. Way under examined. Penile and prostate cancers are one of the cancers high successful treatment rate after detection with low morbidity. While ovary and uterine are one of the highest morbidity and least studied.

There are drugs for ED but none of Feminine sexual disorders/ We just get brushed off and told to get therapy because its probably in our head. So I still stand by my statement. Penis is more documented than Vagainas.

[MarieDelta]

It seems to be true, especially when it comes to sex and sexual pleasure.

Example: Viagra(developed in the 90s) was covered by insurance before birth control pills(developed a few decades ago)...

Its only in the last few years that women even dared mention these discrepancies.

As someone who lives 'on both sides' of the fence, I agree with Littleray. It's not even just male Drs who carry out these biases, its the medical establishment as a whole. Its a societal / cultural issue.

I'm not saying every man is guilty of implementing these biases , but it is something that occurs. And not likely something that men are going to be aware of untill they have lived it.

Marie, dear, what brought this subject to your mind to begin with??:shades::bigrin:;):tong::impleased

[MarieDelta]

I'll never tell......:bigrin::tongue:;)

[rissababynta]

I just want to say that they actually are looking into different things that they can do to help women with orgasms and such, so it's not as if we (our vaginas included) are being COMPLETELY ignored...

[elian]

Hmmm... <smiles>

It doesn't exist because I can't see it
I can't see it because I haven't looked

Yep, makes sense - that must be the truth then..

[Realist]

My GF calls it "GUSHING".

When everything is just right and she hits those super-high orgasmic peaks, she will "gush".

Her's the same texture of a man's precum, but much more prolific...and sweeter.

I have to admit it's a exciting to experience, especially during oral sex.

[onewhocares]

Well as a woman who "gushes" or "squirts" I can tell you that it is in fact real. Like many women I thought when it happened that it was in fact urine. For years in fact I was totally embarrassed and forced myself to control it when I was with my husband. Since he does not like oral sex it was not really and issue. When we became involved with other bisexual men who in fact LOVED to go down on me and found my G spot....the gushing became incredible. I have since learned that some men adore this and I have come to learn that it is perfectly natural for women to do this.

I must agree with some of the previous comments, that in the early years when I approached my gynecologist about this "leaking" as I called it then, I was not taken seriously, by my doctor, a female. After an exam she found nothing unusual and suggested my next stop be a urologist. Well I trusted my gut instinct an said it seemed natural and never went further medically. Now I know I did the right thing.

Female ejaculation has always just made sense to me. Our bodies are so analogous, given how we all start out as female- so why wouldn't women have the type of prostate tissue discussed in the article, that would have grown to become the prostate if they were male? I dunno . . . it's just a big "duh" thing for me.

[TwylaTwobits]

Umm Marie, most major insurance will not cover Viagra, in fact they exclude anything that is related to sexual dysfunction. Most don't cover birth control either other than tubal ligations and vasectomy's but will happily cover every single thing to do with birth and delivery.


Now as for the article, it's interesting. I have "squirted" but I don't consider myself as ejaculating. When I cum, I cum. It feels good that's all that counts.

[littlerayofsunshine]

Twyla, Viagra is covered by Insurance. It was a drugged used to treat an pulmonary arterial hypertension and that had the Fortunate side effect of erections. So it is still covered as an pulmonary arterial hypertension medication. Penile pumps can also be covered by insurance in some cases too.

[allbimyself]

The logic behind insurance paying for ED meds is that they are used to treat a medical dysfunction. Birth control of any type is not used to treat dysfunction, it is used to cause dysfunction. Saying that it is a sexist issue simply because both are pills and both are related to sex isn't honest. Besides, twyla is right, not all insurance plans cover ED meds when prescribed for ED.

[cupidbradley]

I think it is totally hot and I love it when a woman squirts into my mouth!

[MarieDelta]

I dont agree allbi, it is sexist to provide care (even if that care is not "required") for one and not the other.

This is the same logic used to disallow SRS and asssorted other care for transwomen. Its not a "dysfunction" therefore we arent going to pay for it...

If it impairs your life significantly, then isnt it disfunctional?

Not to say that I dont understand what you are saying, and what the Insurance companies are trying to say, but I dont agree with the criteria.

I think you just made me wet my pants!


In the really HOT way :tong::eek:

[Realist]

By the time I was 18, I had done some oral sex with a couple of girls and boys, too. I thought I was doing pretty well....no one had complained and their orgasms confirmed that they had enjoyed it. When I was 21, I met a much older lady, who was bi. She took me under her wing and taught me the things I needed to know about how to fill a lady's emotional and sensual needs. After over of year of her tutelage, she said I was passable. What occurred was, my own pleasure increased a thousand fold, as I learned how wonderful it was to give pleasure, not just take it. Since then, I have spent my whole life building toward meeting my present GF. When she rewards me with her screams of pleasure and sometimes floods of ejaculations, I feel that I have finally arrived! We have discussed bring another into our fold, but so far, I'm totally satisfied with her.

I've never ignored a vagina in my life ;)

(Yes, yes, I know that's not what you meant...)

For the record, I once had a gushing girlfriend, and damn, I thought it was the hottest thing in the world!

[biguy3113]

Damn, I have to get my wife to do that!

[Gina7777]

I was 15 when I first masturbated to climax, and was amazed that some milky fluid shot out (I was sort of upright, so looking down, and it shot out onto my mum's best cushion - so had to run and clear that up quick!) I was revising for exams at the time, and after that found it hard to concentrate as I kept wondering what had happened! :eek:

[kyborn1951]

I have seen the gushing, when it happen I was told it was from me, but was not. :):rolleyes:

[Vegastud]

I love to have a woman sit on my face and give her oral pleasure and when she cums I can't get enough. If that's urine it sure tastes sweet.

[alegrias]

When aroused, a woman's vagina becomes lubricated. So why is it so strange that there is even more lubrication when she has an orgasm?

I don't gush every time. However, when I'm getting g-spot stimulation at the same time as clit stimulation, it has happened to me. It happened once when we used a dildo on me. When we removed the dildo, there was a LOT of fluid. We know it wasn't semen because HE didn't cum. We also know that it wasn't urine, because we didn't know it was there until we removed the dildo from my vagina.

Sometimes I wonder if the strong decriers of female ejaculation (like the guys who insist it's urine and nothing else) are just upset at the idea that they aren't the only ones who can do it anymore.

It's the way people (especially conservative men) seem to get so upset whenever female sexuality is shown to have more in common with male sexuality than not- when we don't conform to stereotypes of sweet, romance-loving, passive, nonsexual "good women", instead of a dirty girl who knows what she wants in bed, gets it, and then cums all over.

Ok my :2cents:
For better or for worse, women are complicated creatures (duh! LOL)
The main reason a female 'viagra' hasn't been created is because we have at least 3 hormones involved when it comes to sexual arousal. Depending on each woman's stage of life and monthly cycle, these change. I am peri-menopausal and currently have a very happy sex drive, but was very worried it would diminish. I don't know as there could be just one mix that would work on every female; I do know you can get a hormone blend specific to you. Add to that the need for birth control, etc and it is not an easy task.
On the other part of the topic... yes, I do 'gush' as well, :bigrin: and it does seem to depend on the intensity of the O. ;)

[Something Else]

Thanks for sharing that link. It was a very interesting read!

I had no idea of Female Ejaculation until I saw it on a video and was shocked (thought it was fake since I was ignorant of this phenomenon entirely).

But it did bring back a flashback of my first time with a woman in college.

I remember that first time:

I took a while to orgasm, but in the same time period the woman I was with said she had reached orgasm a few times. I didn't know what to make of it--as this was my first time with any woman sexually and had no reference point, obviously. I finally did cum after several hours and I had a condom on. I share this info because...

I remember when I was getting ready to clean the sheets I felt moisture on the sheets. And I was like, did she urinate on my bed sheets?!?!?! I knew it wasn't from me--since my stuff was still in the condom. And the amount of moisture was like the bedsheets were soaked in urine. However, the one thing that raised my eyebrow was that there wasn't the classic signature urine smell. So I wasn't sure what to make of it all. I, unfairly, discontinued having sex with her because I assumed that she MUST have urinated and only said she reached orgasm to disguise the obvious (remember hearing how women also fake it to end the sex as well).

That leads me to this link/article--which gives a fuller picture than I was able to see at that tender age.

I think it's actually pretty cool for women to ejaculate.

And for what it's worth, although I had several sexual experiences with women from that point afterwards...that is still the first and last woman to have ejaculated (not urinated) on the sheets.

As an aside, I haven't shared this story with anyone (including best friends girlfriends) because I thought it was the *other* body fluid...and was a bit embarrassed for the young lady.

It's amazing what knowledge and information can do for enlightenment for those unaware & uninformed.

So thanks again for sharing this link!
