Masturbation

Masturbation refers to sexual stimulation, especially of ones own genitals and often to the point of orgasm, which is performed manually, by other types of bodily contact (except for sexual intercourse), by use of objects or tools, or by some combination of these methods.[1] Masturbation is the most common form of autoeroticism, and the two words are often used as synonyms, although masturbation with a partner (mutual masturbation) is also common. Animal masturbation has been observed in many species, both in the wild and in captivity.

Orgasm

Immediately prior to orgasm, the clitoris becomes exceptionally engorged, causing the glans to appear to retract into the clitoral hood. This is thought to protect the sensitive glans during orgasm. However, there is some doubt that this is the case, since the same engorgement prior to orgasm occurs in the male homologous structure, the penis, the function of which is thought to be to extend the penis as close to the cervix as possible prior to ejaculation.

Rhythmic muscle contractions occur in the outer third of the vagina, as well as the uterus and anus. They occur initially at a rate of about one every 0.8 seconds, becoming less intense as the orgasm continues. An orgasm may have as many as 15 or more contractions, depending on intensity. Orgasm may be accompanied by female ejaculation, causing liquid from either the Skenes gland or bladder to be expelled through the urethra.

Immediately after orgasm the clitoris may be so sensitive that any stimulation is uncomfortable

Female ejaculation

Female ejaculation refers to the expulsion of noticeable amounts of clear fluid by human females from the urethra during orgasm.The exact source of the fluid is unknown, although some researchers believe it originates from the Skenes gland. Whether all females have the potential to ejaculate in this manner is also controversial.There was controversy over whether the effect existed at all, and in recent history there has been confusion between female ejaculation and urinary incontinence. However, post-2000 scientific studies in controlled conditions have demonstrated a bona fide effect that is unrelated to urine.Female ejaculation is mostly accomplished by stimulation of the urethral sponge (or g-spot, named after Dr. Ernst Grfenberg), an area on the front vaginal wall.[citation needed] More rarely, ejaculation can be accomplished through external stimulation of the clitoris alone, the internal tissue of the clitoris then contracting and stimulating the urethral tissue.
