Was the clitoris really discovered in 1998? (spoiler alert - it wasn't) - An Article I Read

The idea that the inner clit is a relatively new discovery and that it can now explain what might cause a penetrative lady-gasm is BS. Read my very wordy argument along with a detailed summary of the scientific journal article, “Anatomical relationship between urethra and clitoris,” that is often said to have discovered the inner clit for the modern world (it did not).

Still Here, but Sadly Shere Hite is Not

A type of love letter to the recently passed Shere Hite. She gave us a gift of lady-gasm knowledge in the early 70’s. She got a lot of hate for it, but worst of all, she and her gift of knowledge eventually became marginalized and largely forgotten. It remains that way to this day, but I believe it’s too important to stay down.

I know she’d hoped things would have changed some by 2008, but they sadly have not.

30% Is A Stat About Female Orgasm, But It's Not What You Think...probably, unless you read my blog a lot...

30% is often used as the percentage of women that can orgasm vaginally. The reality is that there’s no physical evidence any women at all can orgasm vaginally, and even looking at surveys (where there’s no physical evidence to back up what people say) 30% is still a really high estimate. This post goes over the details about where this number comes from and what it ctually can and can’t say about female orgasmic experience.
