So, what’s the deal with squirting?

Orgasmic discharge refers to the phenomenon of releasing fluid from the external genitalia during sexual climax. This is a phenomenon found in the realm of sexual legends.

The Internet is filled with eager and curious questions about the "hype": How can we achieve it?

Can it really ensure that we reach the thrilling and heart-stopping climax? If we can't experience the climax, will it seem strange? (Plot disclosure warning: It definitely won't.)

Tides have always been a hotly debated topic in the fields of medicine and science.

Some experts believe that what we call "wet dreams" is actually just spontaneous urination during sexual intercourse.

Others insist that tidal bores are a unique phenomenon, while a considerable number of people believe that tidal bores do not exist at all.

To be honest, even experts don't have a thorough understanding of the phenomenon of "tide blowing". We can't fully explain all aspects of it because there are still many unknown factors.

However, regarding the jetting process, there are certain things that we can definitely clarify. This is what we are going to do now.

First of all - what exactly is a "tide wave"?

Vaginal discharge refers to the phenomenon where fluids gush, spray or drip when the vulva is stimulated. Vaginal discharge does not necessarily occur during orgasm, but it usually does happen.

Interestingly, we have heard some people say that for them, orgasmic ejaculation and sexual climax are completely different things - they may easily reach sexual climax, but orgasmic ejaculation doesn't always occur; or they may have experienced orgasmic ejaculation long before reaching sexual climax.

Clitoral stimulation can make the experience of sexual climax more intense and pleasurable. However, just like any physical sensation, it is subjective - one person's clitoral orgasm might feel absolutely amazing, while another person's clitoral orgasm might feel completely ordinary.

At present, there is still no consensus among people on exactly what kind of liquid is released when the human body sprays out liquid.

A study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine indicates that orgasmic ejaculation and vaginal ejaculation are two completely different phenomena. Ejaculation involves the release of thick, white fluid from the seminal vesicles (which will be elaborated on later), while orgasmic emission is the release of diluted urine from the bladder.

A subsequent study published in the same journal a few years later delved deeper into this hypothesis and conducted ultrasound examinations on the participants before, during, and after the blowing exercise, to see if their bladders were fully filled - we suspect that what they were interested in was to see if people could still perform the blow-off exercise when their bladders were empty.

The research found that even if the participants' bladders were empty before sexual intercourse, they would fill up before the orgasm and then empty again afterwards. This indicates that the participants would excrete urine during orgasm. Isn't that interesting?

However, another interesting study found that vaginal ejaculation is more common than "sexual incontinence" (or urination during sexual intercourse), although the study did note that urine is usually present during ejaculation.

Therefore, the brief answer to the question "What would be expelled when we urinate?" is: It might be some urine and the lubricating fluid from the Skene's glands, although the authorities are not entirely sure about this.

Anyway, the debate over whether the jetting is really urination has been quite intense.

In fact, the UK has banned pornographic works involving nudism because they believe that porn performers might just be urinating. We think this decision is rather narrow-minded.

Sex educator Lux Alptraum wrote an article about the debate between ejaculation and urine expulsion. He believes that "it is hard to ignore the fundamental difference between the experience of spontaneously expelling fluids during orgasm and the more conscious act of emptying the bladder."

Alptraum believes that the debate over whether "fantasy" is "real" will lead to a certain culture where people often do not trust themselves when defining their sexual experiences. We must agree with this.

The human body can perform some truly remarkable things. It would be rather foolish to consider urination as merely a form of spraying, because many people claim that the experience of spraying is completely different from the sensation of urination.

How does the jetting occur?

This question is quite easy to answer! Some people may experience orgasmic contractions during sexual arousal. This usually occurs at the climax, but it doesn't always happen that way.

The "twitching" may be related to the stimulation of the Skene's glands, which are usually referred to as a type of prostate gland in the external genitalia.

The Skene's glands surround the urethra and can be accessed by pressing on the upper wall of the vagina. If you think, "Hey, this sounds a lot like the G-spot", then you're right - many people believe that stimulating the G-spot is actually stimulating the Skene's glands.

This explains why some people ejaculate when their G-spot is stimulated, and also why we sometimes urinate during an orgasm: because the Skene's glands are very close to the urethra.

Although orgasm can occur during any sexual activity, we believe it is most likely to happen when the G-spot is stimulated.

There is no reliable way to make yourself (or your partner) have an orgasm, but if you want to give it a try, we recommend the following methods:

Relax. Just like any sexual activity, if you feel nervous or uncomfortable, your body is less likely to respond as you desire, and you are less likely to enjoy the pleasurable experience. Find a time and place where you feel comfortable, relaxed, and in harmony with yourself; and be sure to ensure that your partner has given consent before any sexual activity.

Get yourself excited. We've heard that stimulating the G-spot without sufficient excitement can be uncomfortable. Even if you're alone, spend some time having foreplay to ensure that you are excited before starting.

Find your G-spot. Our sex coach Georgia Grace tells us how to precisely find the G-spot: using your fingers or a sex toy, press down on the front wall of the vagina. Once you find the G-spot, try different touch methods to see which feels more comfortable.

Ignore the urge to urinate. Some people say that they have a urge to urinate before the squirt. Instead of stopping or slowing down, ignore this feeling and focus on relaxing the muscles. This can actually lead to the squirt!

Don't expect to cum the first time. Some people think that cumming is easy, while others - probably most people - think that it requires some practice. Just like any new skill or new exercise, cumming may not be something you can do successfully the first time. Give yourself time and patience, find a way to enjoy the sexual experience, whether or not you cum.
