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.

I've also heard a theory that the clitoris has "arms" that extend to the opening of the vagina, and that these get stimulated during sex. One recent theory states that the distance between clitoris and vaginal opening is a good predictor of whether a woman will orgasm from intercourse alone.

I, of course, find all this fascinating. Not that I've ever had any trouble, but I certainly feel for those who do.

I've been trying to recollect on past events, and to be honest, I don't think any of the girls I've been with have had an issue with not having that. Perhaps it has to do with the type of girls I attract, but *shrugs* I dunno. There was never any issues involved with stimulation on their end there. Not without insane amounts of alcohol anyhow.

Please !

The mental image of all these intelligent and well-meaning people bumping and grinding away at each other in the desperate hope of being momentarily less miserable is enough to put a chap of his wheaties...

*scratches head*
this silly genital fascination people have over sex is ... somewhat odd. I always thought it was a whole-body thing. (and I've never had any argument from past partners *heh*)

*shrugs* I'm pretty clueless of some stuff though. Guess it's a good question to ask for science...
