Everything you need to know about squirting!

You have probably already seen or heard of squirting. In recent years, squirting - when a woman expels a stream of fluid from her vagina during sex - has become more and more popular in a specific genre of films. But what is squirting? Can a woman make herself squirt during sex? This new experience will definitely spice up your sex life!

Let's start with a little explanation

The term "squirting" refers to female ejaculation during sex. This expression has been used in the porn industry for ages, but just recently it's become more and more common in everyday sex talk. In French, squirting is called fontaine, or "fountain", and women who are able to squirt are referred to as "fountain women"! In short, squirting is the involuntary expulsion of a gush of fluid from the urethra after a woman has experienced intense sexual stimulation.
For a long time, nobody knew what squirting was, due to lack of scientific studies on the phenomenon. A study conducted by French scientists showed that squirting fluid is a type of urine, since it is mainly made up of urine, as well as creatine and uric acid. The para-urethral glands (also called Skene's glands), which are, in women, homologous to the prostate, seem to play a big role in squirting. In fact, the glands in the urethra help produce the thick fluid expelled during female ejaculation. A study led by Dr. Salama in 2015 shows that if a woman is sexually stimulated on an empty bladder, the area will fill up. When ejaculation occurs, the bladder is then emptied.

However, female ejaculation does not necessarily involve an orgasm. An orgasm and squirting may occur at the same time, but one can happen without the other. 

Is squirting the same thing as peeing?

Scientists don't agree on the matter. Since squirting fluid does not only contain urine, it is not the same thing as pee. Plus, the amount of urine in the ejaculate depends on the amount of squirting fluid produced by the bladder as well as how hydrated the woman is. Many women who squirt report that the fluid that they expel is not like urine at all: it is odourless and colourless.

So how can you make yourself squirt?

Now that we've learned about squirting from a scientific point of view, let's learn how to make yourself ejaculate, to add an exciting new activity to your regular sexual routine. You can make yourself squirt by stimulating your G-spot and the surrounding areas. If you don't already know how to find your G-spot, it is located about 2 inches from the opening of the vagina. To find the G-spot, insert your fingers into your vagina or your partner's vagina and gently move them towards the belly. The G-spot has a slightly ribbed texture. You can also use a G-spot stimulator, which has a curved head to make things easier.

When you are about to squirt, you will feel like you really need to go pee. This means that you're going to ejaculate, so don't hold back!

Our advice

Tone up your pelvic floor

Squirting involves the muscles of your pelvic floor. We recommend that you to strengthen these muscles for easier and more intense squirting. You can use kegel balls for this.

Free your mind

If you want to squirt, It is important to relax completely. If you're trying too hard, it's not going to happen! Just lie back, relax and enjoy the moment. Keep in mind that many women need to practice several times before they squirt.

Build up the excitement

Take your time and explore the different parts of your body. Cuddling, kissing and caressing are the perfect way to build up the excitement. We also recommend a long erotic massage with warm massage oil to heat things up between you and your partner.

Use lube

A high quality lube will be the magic ingredient for your squirting experience. In addition to making your vaginal walls wetter, lube will also make your fingers or your toy glide more smoothly. Just apply a good amount to either the toy or directly to the opening of the vagina. You'll find some great lubes here, including a warming lube that will heat things up and increase your pleasure.

Stimulate your clitoris

Squirting requires G-spot stimulation, so we also recommend stimulating your clitoris with either your fingers or with a specialized toy like the Charming or Fascinator. The combination of circular motion, pressure and different speeds will increase your pleasure and your chances of squirting.

Hydrate!

After you squirt, don't forget to hydrate to keep up your strength!
