Clitoris & Stimulators: Focus on female pleasure

The clitoris (or clit, clit) is part of the vulva. The external parts of the female genitalia are called the vulva. The clitoris is located above the vaginal opening, at the end of the labia minora, and the outer diameter (the visible part of the clitoris is called the clitoral hood) measures 0.7 to 1 cm. The clitoris is an organ about 8 to 12 centimeters long that surrounds the vagina. You should know that the head of the clitoris has 10,000 nerve endings (compared to 6,000 for the penis)!⚡️

Its strong vascularization makes the clitoris erect, just like the male penis. Our clit becomes erect under the effect of excitement by gorging itself with blood. And yes, it swells during sex or masturbation and becomes very sensitive!

It has several functions, the first is to allow the opening and lubrication of the vagina before penetration. The second is to send a positive signal to the brain which transmits this feeling of pleasure. Unlike the penis, the clitoris plays no role in reproduction, the only role of this organ is related to female pleasure.

A myth ! We explain to you 😉 The clitoris is the most sensitive erogenous zone of the body, it is indeed the main source of female sexual pleasure. Thanks to its high concentration of nerve endings, when stimulating the glans of the clitoris, the body of the clitoris internally or by massaging the outer labia, a sexual physiological response is triggered.

But then why would the clitoral orgasm be a myth? Well, the clitoris, both anatomically and functionally, is the subject of much debate. Taboos surrounding female sexuality and pleasure have led to a lack of research on these topics. For a long time the difference between a "clitoral orgasm" and a "vaginal orgasm" was unclear. We know today that a "vaginal orgasm" in fact always concerns the clitoris because it is stimulated by each movement during vaginal intercourse with penetration or the contraction of the pelvic muscles. This is why the clitoral orgasm does not exist in itself but the clitoris plays the most important role in triggering an orgasm.

Remember, although orgasm is a source of intense pleasure, some women find it difficult to have one. It does not matter, having an orgasm is not obligatory, the important thing is above all to do good.

There are several ways to stimulate a person's clitoris because each individual has their own preferences. Maybe you prefer to be caressed? Or do you love the feeling of friction against the gland of your clitoris? Or even being licked right on the hood of the clit? Other people on the contrary prefer to be touched with the fingers directly and that one concentrates on their lips or their vaginal entrance.

Vaginal penetration will stimulate the inner part of the clitoris. This can be done with fingers, a penis or a sex toy (including a clitoral stimulator). Also think about lubrication to make the caresses more pleasant. The love juice will be a good natural lubricant, but you can opt for other types of intimate lubricants such as the lubricant from My lubie or the libertine oil with CBD from Ho Karan .

Vibrating clitoral stimulators have been designed to tickle the glans of the clitoris. The vibrations come to solicit the thousands of nerve endings at different rhythms: slow, fast, jerky... there is something for everyone.
