One of the great sexual mysteries of our time and one that is gaining increased interest is the phenomenon of female ejaculation. You my know it by other names such as the Raging Waters of Venus, the Nectar of Aphrodite, the wine of a woman’s navel, the waters of passion, the geyser of ecstasy. Or maybe you know it by the other not so poetic names—squirting, gushing, and female cum, spurting and cruder names.
The phenomena of female ejaculation is often misunderstood and under appreciated as not all find it exciting and desirable. Many women and men mistakenly think female ejaculation fluid is urine. They fear it is a result of lost bladder control during moments of intense sexual ecstasy. Often leaving the very satisfied woman embarrassed and her partner disturbed by the thought he has been peed on.
The forceful release of fluid from the vulva (female ejaculation) during sexual activity is nothing new. It could explain why women sometimes describe orgasm as feeling like "a warm burst of pleasure flowing out" (see the article:What does a female orgasm feel like). In Western history such notable scientists as Aristotle and Hippocratic Galen (the “Father of Medicine”) reported witnessing and experiencing the phenomenon.
Aristotle observed the vuvla expulsions did not have the color or the odor of urine and it did not leave a stain on a woman’s toga.
Hippocratic Galen described the female ejaculate as “fluid of the female prostate” noting it was thinner (more watery) than a males. Later in the 15th century Realdo Columbus, who claimed credit for discovering the clitoris, wrote about female fluid that came “rushing out” and “coming in one gush” from a woman in a heightened state of sexual excitement.
Later in the 17th century, Dutch Doctor Regnier DeGraff wrote about what he believed were ducts that pierced the urethra through which fluids are discharged “occasionally in large quantities”.
In 1880 Dr. Alexander Skene found two glands along the urethra that produce prostate fluid. These glands were named in his honor.
In the 1940s, American gynecologist Dr. Arnold Kegal discovered that if a woman has a strong PC muscle, she is less likely to experience a loose vagina after child birth, suffer from urinary incontinence and less likely to experience vaginal prolapse. PC is short for pubococcygeus muscle, also known as the "sex muscle," and is located between the genitals and the anus. This is the muscle you squeeze to stop your stream of urine.
Both men and women have PC muscles, and both can benefit from learning to squeeze and release the PC in what has become known as a “Kegel exercise”. This exercise is especially beneficial for women when performed using resistance. Women who learn to squeeze and release their PC muscle and strengthen it with resistance exercises have bigger, stronger and multiple orgasms with and without squirting.
In 1950, German obstetrician Dr. Ernest Grafenberg discovered a very sensitive area just inside the vagina which we now call the G-spot in his honor. The area is located an inch or so in from the entrance of the vagina and on the side closest to a woman's abdomen.
Dr. Grafenberg found stimulation of this area could lead to expulsion of fluid from the urethra (female ejaculation). He observed "Large quantities of a clear, transparent fluid expelled not from the vulva, but out of the urethra in gushes…At first, I thought that the bladder sphincter had become defective by the intensity of the orgasm. But," he continued, "the fluid was examined and it had no urinary character (rather it was) secretions of the intra-urethral glands correlated with the erotogenic (erogenous) zone along the urethra in the anterior vaginal wall. (It should be pointed out that stimulation of the G-spot region is most beneficial after a woman is sufficiently sexually aroused.)
Despite this discovery, knowledge of the G-spot and female ejaculation during orgasm did not become widespread in Western Society. Somehow, this knowledge that women can ejaculate (squirt) like men often with greater force and volume, escaped notice during the sexual revolution of the 1960’s and the feminist movement of the 1970’s.
Unfortunately, most women who did ejaculate kept quiet about it thinking it was urine.
It was not until the 1980’s and the publication of The G-Spot by Dr. Alice Kahn Ladas, Dr. Beverly Whipple and Dr. John Perry that interest in the G-spot took off. This best selling book introduced a wealth of information about female sexuality, vaginal and G-spot orgasms, and female ejaculation.
Further research done in the 1990’s confirmed the fact that the fluid women ejaculate is not urine but more closely resembles the Prostatic fluids produced by males. In fact, the two primary components that make up urine, creatinine and urea, are only present in very small amounts. The female ejaculation contains fructose, sucrose and prostate-specific antigen (PSA). This fluid is believed to be produced by the Skene’s glands located in the G-spot region and is often referred to as the female prostate.
While awareness of female ejaculation or squirting and the G-spot is just beginning in the West, it has long been recognized in the East as a normal and desirable aspect of female sexuality. In Tantric sexual practice the G-spot is known as the Goddess Spot or Sacred Spot and the expelled fluid is referred to as ‘amrita’ the nectar of the gods.

The Kama Sutra refers to it as “the semen of women”. Among the carvings on Buddist and Hindu temples can be found images of women ejaculating.

Ancient Japanese woodcuts show women in a state of sexual ecstasy squirting into bowls. East Asian men and women often drank this “nectar of the gods” believing it contained aphrodisiac and rejuvenating properties.
Despite the cultural and historical evidence, anecdotal accounts and hard scientific proof, modern medicine has been very skeptical about accepting female ejaculation as real. Detractors insist women who squirt during orgasm are simply urinating during climax.
However, researches who have studied female ejaculation, many of them women who have experienced it first hand, know it is real. Squiring orgasms are not a figment of imagination. Female ejaculations have been documented, researched and chemically analyzed.
Perhaps one reason the skeptics have trouble accepting the reality of female ejaculation, besides not having experienced it first hand, is because it has no apparent role in procreation. It is a purely recreational experience for a woman. The intense pleasure of female ejaculation can be clearly recognized on video footage of the phenomenon.
Historically women who squirt may have been considered more fertile and procreated more probably because they simply enjoyed sex more. Women who squirt naturally or have learned to squirt will testify of the power and pleasure of the female orgasm they not only feel as waves of pleasure but also can see and hear while feeling the physical release of squirting.
Although female ejaculation is not necessary for a woman’s sexual pleasure, it is a normal, natural and healthy feminine experience. And while some women experience squirting orgasms naturally with no effort, others like sexologist Doctor Suzan Block, may need to learn how to have a “regular” orgasm and then learn how to ejaculate.
Learning how to squirt requires a combination of pelvic muscle training, technique and relaxation. This may sound like a lot of work, but women who have done it say it’s really not that hard, a lot of fun and well worth the effort. Having a partner who is genuinely interested in learning how to help her squirt can be a great benefit. The next article will be on learning how to squirt.
