One is almost tempted into the overuse of heavy irony here and say "quelle surprise". I wonder again about the differences between nature and nurture.
We are a diverse species and our diversity is a good thing: it enables us to fit into many evolutionary niches, which, as we are top predator and scavenger as well, give us good chances of survival. We are adaptable. We are also stupid, hidebound, and given to sloth and fouling our own nests (mainly because we regard it as cheaper to let someone else clear up after us).
But the folk who have, over the years, told women what they should and shouldn't be thinking and feeling; and what constituted 'normal' behaviour and sexuality (mainly men, it has to be said), have been talking through their arses, where there appears to be no G-spot as yet discovered (unless you ask an homosexual man - some of whom will tell you different). Perhaps all these folk telling women this stuff just had something to prove, or perhaps hide....
What is interesting is this may revive the old debate about vaginal orgasms and Freud. It may also irritate some feminists, but I hope not.
