Sex Ed: Sex and the Female G-spot

A G-spot, also known as Grafenburg (or Von Grafenburg) spot is a bean shaped area inside the vagina that has very sensitive nerve endings. The G-spot is one of the core erogenous zones that makes us sexually aroused. Through stimulating the G-spot it can cause women to experience powerful vaginal orgasms. There have been some debates about whether the G-spot actually exists, with some scientists finding no evidence the G-spot exists, while other studies argue that it does exist.

With this in mind, here’s everything we know about the G-spot; how the female G-spot was discovered, where the G-spot is located, how to find our G-spot and the best positions to stimulate the G-spot.

How was the female G-spot discovered?

In the 1950’s, a German physician and scientist, known as Ernst Grafenberg gained fame for his research on female sexual physiology, including the female orgasm and his invention of the IUD contraceptive device. Grafenberg discovered the female erotica zone – the place where orgasms can be stimulated - two inches inside the vagina on the anterior wall and argued that when this area becomes stimulated, it causes female pleasure and ejaculation (and thus, the G-spot was named after him). 

Where is the G-spot located?

The G-spot is located approximately two inches (for most women – it’s between 1-3 inches) inside the vaginal opening, beyond the anterior wall. This area contains many nerve endings and can sometimes swell when aroused or touched. Some people can find their G-spot easily, while others may find it more difficult. As everyone’s bodies are different, the size and position of the G-spot can vary from women-to-women. 

How to find your G-spot?

  • Lie down somewhere you will not be disturbed
  • Slide one finger 1-2 inches inside the vagina and flex the tip of your finger upwards
  • Become aware of how your body responds as you stimulate different areas – some areas will feel more pleasurable than others
  • Using lubricant can make it easier to feel around
  • The area that is the most sensitive is the typical area of the G-spot – you might need to play around with different pressure and simulation to find it

What positions stimulate the G-spot?

There are a few sexual positions that can stimulate the G-spot – here are three of our favourites.

Reverse cowgirl: With your partner lying down on his back, climb on top and straddle him between your thighs but facing away from him (so you’re pointing towards his toes). Place your hand on his penis and gently guide it inside of your vagina (using lubricant can help make this easier). You can then be in control of speed and pressure.

Doggy style: This is one of the best positions to help stimulate the G-spot as when your partner enters you from the back, he automatically is poised to slide up right up against your G-spot as he moves backwards and forwards. Start by getting into position by kneeling on all fours and have your partner glide inside you. You can angle your body slightly to see what feels good – some people like to lie with their belly on the floor, while others prefer to stay upright on all fours.

Raised missionary: Lie down on your back but place your ankles around your partner's neck so your pelvis is tilted upwards. Not only does this position help your partner stimulate your G-spot, they can also stimulate your clitoris too – making you experience double the pleasure!
