Squirting refers to ejaculation from the vagina. Some people call it female ejaculation. People who squirt often report producing a relatively large volume of fluid. The sensations associated with squirting vary from person to person. Some people report more intense orgasms or a change in their orgasm patterns. Others report specific sensations associated with G-spot stimulation, such as tingling or a mild need to urinate.
Many anecdotal accounts and most scientific research into squirting emphasize the importance of G-spot stimulation. However, the 2013 study found that this ejaculation resulted from various types of stimulation. The researchers also found that:
- Participants were more likely to squirt when masturbating than when having sex with a partner.
- Squirting usually occurred at orgasm.
- Many study participants highlighted the importance of “letting go” and relaxing.
Overall, G-spot stimulation remains the most popular recommendation. For anyone looking to squirt for the first time, it may help to focus on the G-spot.
What is Squirting or Female Ejaculation?
During sex, some people with vulvas experience the involuntary emission of fluid. Getting this fluid known as “squirting” or “female ejaculation”.
Squirting When Masturbating
A person may find it easier to squirt when masturbating, rather than during sex with a partner because they can focus entirely on their own sensations and adjust accordingly. To find the G-spot, first, get comfortable. Next, use fingers or a sex toy to stimulate the front wall of the vagina, beginning about a third of the way up. A person may experience a tingling sensation or the need to urinate when they locate their G-spot. To intensify the pleasure, try stimulating the clitoris as well.
