Some Facts About the Clitoris .
The clitoris may seem like just a little nub on top of the vagina, but anyone who has one knows it can be quite powerful for something so small. While you're no doubt aware of how awesome your clitoris is, there's probably a lot you still don't know about it.
Here are a few mind-boggling facts that will make you (even more) proud to have a clitoris.
1. It's way bigger than it looks.
The clitoris is actually shaped like a wishbone with legs that extend into the vagina, leading scientists to theorize that the vaginal orgasm some women experience actually results from stimulation of parts of the clitoris within the vagina. The part of the clitoris we can see is just the tip of the iceberg—it can be up to 20 times the length inside.
2. It starts off the same as the penis.
Since the clitoris and penis develop from the same structure in the womb and work similarly, some scientists have called the clitoris the "female penis" But we could just as easily (perhaps even more accurately) say that the penis is a big clitoris. The organ that both males and females start off with is somewhere between a clitoris and a penis, and the addition and suppression of hormones makes it grow into one or the other.
3. It grows throughout your life.
Your clitoris keeps on growing even after other parts of your body are done. Due to changes in hormones, it almost doubles in size during puberty, and it gets even bigger—almost seven times its length at birth—after menopause.
4. It has a lot of nerve endings.
The clitoris has 7,000 sensory nerve endings. That's more than any other part of the body and at least as many as the glans on the penis—just packed into a smaller area.
5. It gets an erection.
Your clitoris gets bigger and harder when you're turned on due to increased blood flow and then goes back down to its normal size after you orgasm. So, basically, "lady boner" is not just a slang term—it's anatomically accurate.
6.The clitoris varies in size and shape on different women.
Some are hidden under the hood, and some stick out. Some like to be touched softly and others like a lot of pressure. It takes time to get to know a woman's clitoris. Don't assume that you know what it likes. Take your time and get to know each unique clitoris, just like you would take the time to get to know the woman it is attached to.
7. People have all kinds of nicknames for the clitoris.
You may have heard "man in canoe," "rosebud," "joy buzzer," "cherry pit," "love button," or "bald man in a boat," just to name a few. I have also heard chick pea and lentils. Anyone have a chip?
8. The clitoris is designed to bring a woman pleasure.
That is its sole purpose. Not reproduction.
9. Yes, there are all kinds of orgasms.
Vaginal, Cervical and G Spot Orgasms do exist, but they are much harder for most women to achieve than a clitoral orgasm. Very few women are able to achieve an orgasm without any kind of clitoral involvement. There is nothing immature about women having orgasms through their clitoris. Sorry, Dr. Sigmund Freud.
10. The clitoris is only partially visible to the naked eye.
The clitoris is actually close to four inches in length (kinda like the average non-erect penis), but three-fourths of it is hidden from view within a female's body. It's buried treasure. Think of all that pleasure potential in the entire region. Have you explored it?
