Everything You’ve Ever Wanted to Know About Squirting

But first…

Let’s get one thing straight: squirting isn’t the ultimate sexual achievement, and it’s definitely not a must-do for sexual freedom. It doesn’t hold some secret key to pleasure that you’ve been missing out on. Instead, squirting can be a fun and curious thing to explore—whether solo or with a partner—if you’re interested. If it doesn’t happen for you, no worries! You’re not missing out on something life-changing.

So, what’s squirting, anyway?

Squirting is when fluid is released from the vulva, specifically the urethra, during sexual arousal or orgasm. This fluid is usually clear, and if you’ve ever noticed a surprisingly large wet spot after sex, that’s probably squirting. The amount can vary—a little spritz or a full-on gush of odourless, water-like fluid.

Is there a magic button?

Well, sort of! It’s called the G-spot, that mysterious area inside the vagina that’s said to be key to squirting. When this area gets stimulated, squirting might happen. But here’s the twist: squirting doesn’t always come with an orgasm. Some people squirt before, after, or even without reaching orgasm. And just to mix things up, some can squirt multiple times within a few minutes.

Where does it come from? Is it pee?

Ah, the big question! Is squirting just fancy pee? The answer’s more complicated. Squirting is a mix of a little urine and a lot of fluid from the paraurethral glands, sometimes called the female prostate. These glands, located near the urethra and often linked with the G-spot, produce a lubricating fluid. When you’re aroused—or hitting that orgasmic high—this fluid can be released, sometimes with a bit of urine from the bladder.

Can everyone squirt?

Here’s the thing: not everyone can or will squirt, and that’s totally fine. Bodies are unique, and what works for one person might not work for another. Some people naturally squirt without much effort, while others might never experience it, no matter how much stimulation they get. It’s all about exploring and seeing what your body responds to.

How do I explore squirting?

If you’re curious about squirting, here are some tips:

• Get in the Zone: Relaxation is key. Create a comfy environment where you feel safe and open to exploring. If you’re tense or anxious, your body might not respond.
• G-Spot Exploration: Use your fingers or a curved toy to press the G-spot, located about 2-3 inches inside the vagina on the front wall. It might feel slightly textured or spongy.
• Don’t Rush: Take your time. The G-spot might need steady pressure or rhythmic stimulation to get going. Try different speeds and pressures.
• Stay Hydrated: Not just health advice! Drinking water beforehand can help with the fluid part of squirting.
• Let Go: Mentally and physically. If you feel like you need to pee, try pushing past that feeling—it’s often a sign squirting is about to happen.
• Communicate with Your Partner: If you’re exploring with someone else, keep the communication open. Let them know what feels good and what doesn’t.

Is squirting messy?

In a word, yes. Squirting can be messy, but that’s part of the fun! If you’re worried about cleanup, lay down a towel or waterproof sheet. Enjoy the moment and don’t stress about the aftermath.

Does squirting enhance pleasure?

For some, yes; for others, it’s just another thing to explore. Squirting isn’t necessarily more pleasurable than any other sexual activity. It’s all about what feels good to you. If squirting adds to your pleasure, fantastic! If not, that’s perfectly okay too.

Squirting is just one of many ways to enjoy your sexuality. Whether you’re a squirting pro or just curious, the most important thing is that you’re having fun, feeling good, and discovering what works for you. So, whether squirting becomes your new thing or just something you try out, remember: there’s no right or wrong way to enjoy your body!
