Finding Your Erogenous Zones
What are they? Where can they be found?
Erogenous zones are areas where a woman may be touched that
are quite pleasurable to her. While personal tastes vary, the
"given" areas are those with crowded populations of nerve
endings, where the skin is most sensitive to touch. The number
one spot is the clitoris, as it is an essential part of female orgasm
and sexual pleasure. Other areas that are known to produce
pleasure are the rest of the area between a woman's legs as well
as the anal area - collectively referred to as the perineum. The
nipples are also highly sensitive. They will become erect with
sexual excitement. Stimulation, particularly sucking, will release a
chemical called oxytocin. This is believed to be associated with
feelings of attachment or bonding. The mouth and lips are also
packed with nerve endings. Of course, every woman has her own
personal favorites. These range from the oft-noted neck and
earlobes to more unique locations such as the middle lower back
or feet.
What about the G-spot?
The G-spot is an area of tissue on the anterior wall of the vagina
(anterior is the side of you closest to the stomach) and is rumored
to be an erogenous zone. The G-spot is thought to be either the
back of the clitoris, or the tissue that would have been the prostate,
if the woman had been a man (embryos start out with the potential
to be either male or female). Regardless of the anatomical origins
of the G-spot, there is little evidence to support its role in orgasm.
Explore a Little
Since every woman varies considerably in what she finds a tactile
turn-on, why not do a little exploring with your partner? Each of you
could take turns exploring the other's body, touching different parts
with varying amounts of pressure to find what gives the most
pleasure.
Let's not forget that it has always been said that a woman's largest
erogenous zone is her brain. Being physically attracted to your
partner and having a good relationship are two of the biggest
turn-ons.
