Question: "Are squirting orgasms for real or is it just urine? Just seems like a lot of fluid for a woman to store in her body. If it's real what is the fluid?"
Well the scientific world of sexuality has been torn apart by this question. Different scientist have claimed different scientific results as time has passed. Their basic problem was the fact that each one used a different research methodology and different definitions. Thus a general consensus on the matter of female squirting orgasms could not be reached.
When it comes to the reality of squirting orgasms different questionnaire surveys produced different percentages of woman who have squirting orgasms. But all of them had a certain percentage. So squirting orgasms are real but there isn't a unique scientific established percentage of the female population that can achieve them. Some studies have claimed that 35-50% of women can achieve squirting orgasms, while others claim the percentage to be around 10%. The majority of studies gravitate around 10-69% depending on the definition and methods used. For instance Kratochvil in 1994 surveyed 200 women and found that 6% reported ejaculating, an additional 13% had some experience and about 60% reported release of fluid without actual ejaculation. Reports on the volume of fluid expelled vary considerably from amounts that would be imperceptible to a woman, to mean values of 1-5 mL (0.2-1 tsp), although much higher volumes have been reported.
Also there are historical accounts of woman squirting orgasms form various ancient or medieval sexual texts. In the karma Sutra there are several references to female ejaculation and in the sixteenth century Ananga-Rang. Chinese sex handbooks, such as "Secret Methods of the Plain Girl" by Su Nu Ching form 590-618 AD also describe ejaculation as "Copious emissions from her inner heart begin to exude outward". Greek and Roman writers accepted the existence of woman ejaculation but the big debate during their time was if the female ejaculation was progenitive or not, meaning could a female ejaculation give birth to a baby.
In the Generation of Animals, Aristotle argues that the function of the fluid is pleasure, not procreation: Some think that the female contributes semen in coition because the pleasure she experiences is sometimes similar to that of the male, and also is attended by a liquid discharge. But this discharge is not seminal...The amount of this discharge when it occurs, is sometimes on a different scale from the emission of semen and far exceeds it.
Hippocrates stated that "the ejaculate of the mans runs together with that from the woman", while Galen differentiated procreative and pleasurable female fluids, attributing the latter to what he described as the prostate: The fluid in her prostate ...contributes nothing to the generation of offspring...it is poured outside when it has done its service...This liquid not only stimulates...the sexual act but also is able to give pleasure and moisten the passageway as it escapes. It manifestly flows from women as they experience the greatest pleasure in coitus...
Eventually it was this two semen theory that prevailed in Arabic, and then Western medical teaching.
When it comes to the composition of the fluid that is ejaculated during a squirting orgasm the scientific community is again unclear. Some scientists claim that they haven't found any chemical compounds similar to those found in urine. Others stated that they have found some chemical that are found in urine. And a small minority indentify the two as the same. In one of his essays Gräfenberg stated: "An erotic zone always could be demonstrated on the anterior wall of the vagina along the course of the urethra...analogous to the male urethra, the female urethra also seems to be surrounded by erectile tissues...In the course of sexual stimulation, the female urethra begins to enlarge and can be felt easily. It swells out greatly at the end of orgasm...Occasionally the production of fluids is ...profuse...
If there is the opportunity to observe the orgasm of such women, one can see that large quantities of a clear transparent fluid are expelled not from the vulva, but out of the urethra in gushes. At first I thought that the bladder sphincter had become defective by the intensity of the orgasm. Involuntary expulsion of urine is reported in sex literature. In the cases observed by us, the fluid was examined and it had no urinary character. I am inclined to believe that "urine" reported to be expelled during female orgasm is not urine, but only secretions of the intraurethral glands correlated with the erotogenic zone along the urethra in the anterior vaginal wall. Moreover the profuse secretions coming out with the orgasm have no lubricating significance, otherwise they would be produced at the beginning of intercourse and not at the peak of orgasm."
A 2007 study on two women, involved ultrasound, endoscopic and biochemical analysis of fluid. The ejaculate was compared to pre-orgasmic urine from the same woman, and also to published data on male ejaculate. In both women, higher levels of PSA, PAP, glucose but lower levels of creatinine were found in the ejaculate. PSA levels were comparable to those in males.
So when it comes to squirting orgasms they are real but there are still debates on their purpose and the contents of the fluid that is ejaculated. But what I am interested in is the fabulous capabilities for pleasure that the female body has to offer. All woman should learn to master their pleasure giving body and all men should give them a helping hand. I believe that each and every woman can achieve the kind of orgasmic life that she desires and her lover has only to gain from the sexual knowledge that she will acquire. Stop bothering your brain with questions related to cleanliness. Good sex is supposed to be dirty and extremely pleasurable. Just have fun and enjoy the experience.
