The female body has numerous erogenous zones or hot spots that, when sexually stimulated, can give you incredible orgasms. Today in Female Sexual Anatomy 101 we’ll be learning about the C-spot, the G-spot, and the A-spot. Oh, and even the U-Spot.

The C-spot (also known as the fabulous clitoris)

The clitoris is the number one hot spot in the female pleasure zone and 70% of women enjoy clitoral stimulation. The only organ designed solely for pleasure, this sensitive little glans is located just below where the tops of the inner labia meet.

The clitoris has more than 8,000 sensitive nerve endings, more than any other part of the human body, including the male penis. For this reason, it can be extremely sensitive until the woman is fully aroused, so she begins foreplay on other areas of the body first (labia, breasts, vulva) before attacking the clitoris.

While some women want and need direct clitoral stimulation, for other women this can be uncomfortable and even painful. Again, start slow, use plenty of lube, and circle around the clitoris before touching the sensitive glans directly.

Many women find the upper right side of the clitoris very sensitive, so test this point by using a lubricated finger, tongue, or vibrator to stimulate it. If your clit were a clock, the hot spot would be 10:30 p.m. Try focusing on different time zones around your little clock, and watch your body language as you respond. Or ask her to tell you which area feels best for her.

Nerves from the clitoris travel through the vagina, bladder, and urethra, transmitting the sensations that occur in that area. This means that clitoral orgasms are closely related to G-spot orgasms, even though they feel very different.

The G-spot (or the infamous G-spot)

Much is made of the infamous G-spot, or Grafenberg Spot (also known as the female prostate), but for most women it remains elusive. It is an extremely sensitive area on the front wall inside the vaginal canal about one to two inches up, near the bladder. It was first described as “an erotic zone located on the anterior wall of the vagina along the course of the urethra that would swell during sexual stimulation.”

That seems easy enough, so why is it so hard to find? The G-spot is often elusive because in its “unstimulated” sexual state it feels no pleasure and is very small. But once aroused, the G-spot will begin to swell with fluid, and wrinkled, plum-like tissue (the urethral sponge) will be noticeable to the touch. It will also begin to feel pleasant to be touched.

Like most forms of sexual arousal, it’s best to warm her up with foreplay first, then try to find the G-spot right away. Once her lover is aroused, she can insert two fingers or a G-spot dildo into her vagina to stimulate the G-spot. And, clitoral stimulation before and during G-spot arousal also works to arouse the G-spot. g.

To stimulate the G-spot with your fingers, make sure they’re well lubricated and your nails are trimmed (or wear a glove and plenty of lube). Insert your fingers 1″-2″ into the vagina and feel the wrinkled swollen spot like a sponge, just blow into your pelvis. The G-spot will feel like the roof of the mouth when felt with the tongue, while the surrounding tissue will feel like the inside of the cheeks, very soft. There you have found it.

Start by using a “come here” motion with your fingers to gently massage the G-spot, and add firm pressure as she begins to push her hips toward you. The G-spot craves firm pressure and a push when it’s highly aroused. A firm, curved dildo or vibrator made for G-spot pleasure will also work well for this technique.

When a woman is ready to orgasm through G-spot stimulation, she may ejaculate, so be prepared. Absorbent towels are good to have on hand. The force of the orgasm can also push your fingers or any toy out of the vagina.

The U point. What is it?

The U spot is a very small ridge of tender tissue that lies on either side of and above the opening of the urethra. This area is highly erotic for some women when gently caressed with a finger, tongue, or soft vibrator. The U spot is very sensitive, so be very careful when stimulating it and use plenty of lube. And, like any form of sexual stimulation, ask your partner what feels good and try to vary the speed, pressure, and type of stimulation.

Also note that because this area is connected to the urethra (and the female prostate gland), stimulating it can make a woman feel like urinating. If that’s not a sensation she wants to feel, she may want to avoid this area. However, along with G-spot stimulation, pleasuring the U-spot can be very erotic and help trigger ejaculation when she is about to orgasm.

Additional Hot Spot: Point A

Point A is a tender patch of tissue at the end of the vaginal tube above the cervix and below the bladder. Also known as the ‘degenerated female prostate’, direct stimulation of this area can produce ‘violent orgasmic contractions’. Trust me, you’ll know when you’re right.

Pressure on this area produces rapid lubrication of the vagina, even in women who are not normally sexually responsive. This point can only be hit during vaginal intercourse or with a long, slightly curved dildo. The best position to get to this point through sex is doggy style.

So now you know the three (actually four) most sensitive sexual parts of the female body and how to stimulate them. Just imagine if there was a hot spot for every letter of the alphabet? Who knows, maybe there is.
