Despite the fact that scientists and sexologists have underestimated
the capabilities of women's bodies to experience pleasure, female
ejaculation is now beginning to be accepted as a natural and very
pleasurable activity. With stimulation of the G-Crest, there
is another source of pleasure and orgasm available for women. In light
of this potentiality, what current sexual activities may need to be
reconsidered? Sensual activities such as oral or manual stimulation
of the genitals and/or simple caressing (which are now regarded
as
pleasurable but are relegated to being just "foreplay" or a prelude
to intercourse or "real" sex) may provide an orgasm that is easier
to facilitate, more intense and more gratifying than is possible
with
intercourse itself.
In many modern relationships
both partners work at full time jobs. By the time they get home
from work and take care of family needs, it is often unrealistic
to expect that they will have the time or energy for mutually satisfying
intercourse. However, their emotional and physical needs might be
served by sensual and/or sexual contact that is not simply a precursor
to intercourse but is rather a pleasurable end unto itself.
It's a cliché
in our society that men are primarily focused on sexual intimacy,
while women principally seek emotional intimacy. My experience is
that both men and women find sex and sensuality to be pleasurable
physical, emotional and even spiritual expressions of their love
and caring for each other. Because of male conditioning in our society
and the hypersensitivity of the adolescent penis, it has been easier
for men to give themselves permission to be sexually aroused. However,
for a woman to feel safe enough to become fully aroused, she must
feel that she is emotionally as well as physically safe. Once she
feels that safety -- along with emotional closeness -- she is more
willing to explore sexual expressions of intimacy.
So where is the common
ground? How can men and women be together in ways where men can
enjoy physical contact and women can feel safe and comfortable?
One new sexual activity that couples could experience might be referred
to as a focalized pleasure ceremony. This ritual could
be pleasurable and, at the same time, an expression of love and
caring between loving partners. It would not necessarily have to
be enormously time consuming, nor terribly strenuous, so it can
be done even when one or both parties are somewhat tired. The activity
would not necessarily be a prelude to intercourse, but it is possible
that intercourse might follow if that were a mutual decision. This
is how the ceremony might proceed . . .

The male
partner could learn to gently explore different areas of the vagina
to see where the woman has a strong response. He could then make
short excursions away from that area to give it a chance to rest,
then return to it for further stimulation. The woman could give
him positive feedback on what makes her feel the best as they proceed
slowly from one degree of pressure to the next, from one area to
another. In this way, the man would know where the woman is most
sensitive and discover how best to pleasure her.
Each time the partners
engage in a pleasure ceremony, it's important to discover what is
really appealing to the woman at that moment. Women are all different
in wondrously unique and varied ways. The same woman may even have
different sensitivities within the same lovemaking session. It is
important to know how her sensitivities are changing and shifting
in small and subtle ways during a period of time.
Men, being achievement
and results-oriented, tend to want to find a formula that works
and then stay with it. They feel good when they achieve results.
Thus, equipped with the knowledge about the G-Crest, men
will achieve far better results in lovemaking and sex play if they
realize that there are times when women want direct hands-on stimulation
more than they want intercourse, just as men themselves sometimes
prefer to be orally or manually stimulated to orgasm.
If the man is familiar
with several methods of stimulation and several areas in the woman's
body where she often feels pleasure then he can go to one of those
areas, manually stimulate it and see if it's sensitive at the moment.
If it is not, he can go to each of the other areas that were really
pleasurable or orgasmic for her in the past until he finds the one
that is pleasurable today, right now. Or he can ask her to let him
know what area she wants touched and in what way. That way a man
can always feel that he has several alternatives to stimulate a
woman and to make her feel wonderful. The woman feels appreciated
because the man is not focused on only one spot or method while
ignoring the others, thinking that exactly the same thing is going
to work all the time, based on the erroneous assumption that she
always "feels" in the same way.
A full understanding
of the potential of female ejaculation and the nature of the G Crest
can create a wide range of sensual opportunities, as long as there
is no pressure on the woman to perform in any particular way. Not
all women ejaculate and even women who are capable of it will not
ejaculate every time. The best perspective for a man to hold is
"it's all right if you do or don't . . . I just want to give you
whatever pleasure you desire." Most of all, it is valuable for the
male, as her lover, to look for the different approaches to pleasuring
her and the different ways to excite her, so as to express love
and caring.
