"The ‘vaginal' orgasm that some women report is always caused by the surrounding erectile organs," said study authors Vincenzo Puppo and Giulia Puppo, co-authors and sexologists at the Italian Center of Sexology and the University of Florence, in a news release. "The vagina has no anatomical relationship with the clitoris."
For their findings, researchers switched up the terms of the more commonly believed female orgasms, divided into clitoral, vaginal and G-spot, into just "female orgasms."
Furthermore, they went on to debunk Freud's theory that clitoral orgasms are "adolescent" and less powerful than the more "mature" vaginal ones.
Yet myths like these have persisted, thanks to magazines like Cosmo, which may even feature tutorials suggesting "How To Find the G-Spot."
A separate study published in the journal Nature Reviews Urology by Emannuele Jannini revealed that the G-spot should be thought of more as a sensitive area that's part of a larger pleasure center, with an accent on clitoral stimulation.
"Compared to the male erogenous zones, it is much more variable and complex, and also varies from woman to woman depending on the hormonal cycle," she said, via The Local, Italy's English-written news site, via The Salon.
Whether the G-spot really is a mythical form of pleasure or decades of hype surrounded by a sexist ideal, there are, fortunately, other ways to enjoy yourself in the bedroom.
"Male ejaculation does not automatically mean the end of sex for women," added Dr. Vincenzo Puppo, via Glamour. "Touching and kissing can be continued almost indefinitely, and noncoital sexual acts after male ejaculation can be used to produce orgasm in women."
