So the same tissues that make the penis
make the clitoris.
Same tissues, they're just turned into different shapes, right?
So the problem is when we're having intercourse, we're not getting clitoral stimulation.
So we're not getting the most sensitive part of our body stimulated.
So the comparison that I always like to make is that intercourse for a woman from a nerve ending standpoint, it's like playing with a man's balls.
Like that might be fun.
That might feel good.
But is it going to be enough stimulation for you to have an orgasm?
Definitely not.
But that's what we're doing to women is we're stimulating this part of our body that's not really designed to feel a lot of pleasure.
And then so many of us women are feeling like something's wrong with us or broken with us for not enjoying intercourse.
The G-spot's a really interesting thing.
So there actually isn't consensus in the sex therapy field about whether or not the G-spot actually exists.
So what we do know is it's not really a spot in the sense of like a button that you just press.
Yeah, there's a zone.
There's a network of tissues that are there
And what they are around is the legs of the clitoris.
So most of us think of the clitoris as just like the little button, but it actually extends up into the body.
It's like a wishbone shape, exactly like a wishbone shape.
