Do any of you have knowledge about this phenomenon?

[AG31]

I've described the physical phenomenon that re-engaged me in the world of erotica, and thence to AH, several times in posts here, but I've never directly asked if anyone has knowledge of this sort of experience. So I'm asking now. Very soon after the first instance of this experience, two (maybe 3?) people on Reddit declared that it was a "hormonal storm," and advised me to tell my PCP about it. I did, nothing resulted, and almost no one else has ever expressed an opinion about it. So I'm asking directly now. Have you ever heard of such a thing? Is my sense that I'm unique well grounded?

This is from the afterword to my story Twelve Maxbridge Street

At age 76, after a life time of relatively low libido, I experienced several weeks' worth of what I know understand to be the same as "prostate orgasms," that is, intense (visible) erotic contractions of thigh and abdomen muscles. Very definitely erotic. Little, if any, genital involvement. The thing is, I'm female.

These experiences were accompanied by vivid, intense fantasies, which I wrote down and published here and else where.

In the last three years (I'm 80 now) I haven't bumped into anyone else who's had such an experience.

But it was great fun!! A real gift!!!

I do have stories drop that are so vividly sexual I lose sleep formulating them. (Had this happen two nights ago--and I wrote it up the next day, pretty much as my mind was developing it while I couldn't sleep.) But I don't think these occurrences have ever resulted in spontaneous orgasm.

I would say 'sounds like menopause', only 80 is a tad late for that!

But the clitoris curls round into the tops of nerves that go down the thighs, and up round your rectum and can extend into the abdomen. It's shaped like this. So it's probably that. Not a prostate, though can provide similar happiness upon penetration if a tendril of it happens to be in the right place!

Hormones are weird and can be influenced by all sorts of stuff - did you eat lots of soy before that kicked off, for example? Or get stressed?

One of my characters refers to the time of the month when she is desperate to fight or fuck. I'm sure her partner will figure out which is the best way to handle this - diary entry every 30 days saying 'fuck Emily or else be yelled at for the next 4 days'...

I read an article on that a month ago - I had no idea the clitoris was so big, nor that it had that internal structure which went so far. Lucky women, I'd say!

I think science has it all wrong. The clitoris isn't big, it just moves around a lot. That's why men can never find it: it's never in the same place twice!

Leave clitoris alone! If it wanted to be found, it would stop hanging out with its elusive buddy, G-spot.

As a man, I'm perfectly happy to let them languish in obscurity.

Schrödinger's Clit.

That's not about its location, that's about whether it's going to have a headache or not.

 

[Yarglenurp]

unscientifically speaking, the body just does weird stuff sometimes. It’s a machine, right? And it’s not like it’s a perfect machine. It’s got problems. Lots of problems. And there’s no instruction manual. And you can’t even power cycle it.

So when weird shit happens that actually feels good, count your blessings. Heck, you’re 80… what exactly would the doctor even be able to do if it was a precursor to something bad?

They figure G-spots are where ends of clitoris rest against the vaginal wall.

Is difficulty finding the clit an actual thing? I always assumed it was men who didn't give a shit about their partner's pleasure not bothering looking.

Yup, bodies are weird and only get weirder, it seems. My mum's in her 80s and keeps adding to her list of issues where the docs say "don't worry, that's something you'll die with not of". My friends and I are 'just' dealing with menopause, which can explain absolutely anything when it comes to bodies doing weird shit, even worse than pregnancy.

Suddenly can't tolerate rough fabrics? Eyeballs changed shape so you need new glasses or contacts? Started producing earwax? Producing breast milk despite not being pregnant? Desperate to get fucked immediately or you know you will kill someone? Zits? Suddenly wanting different sexual positions and not old faves? Bleeding for 6 weeks non-stop? Probably menopause.

Some of these might make better Lit stories than others.

It's an actual cliché, yeah.

I don't think the cliché comes from guys not being able to find the clit, I think it's from guys not knowing what to do there. Is that an actual thing? Sure, sometimes.

Is that from not paying attention to their partner and just miming shit they see in porn? Maybe.
Is it from not asking how it feels? Maybe.
Is it from women who won't give any verbal feedback about how it's going? Maybe.

There's no one answer because every pair of partners is different, but women looove to pretend the guy never found it at all. Makes for funny jokes. Never gets old. Good deflection.

Also, remember that the clitoris isn't always as prominent. When it's hard and swollen, then sure, it's easy to find. If you're inexperienced, I can imagine that it could be confusing. "It was here last time, am I doing something wrong? Where did it go?"

There should be some rule about having to get your sex licence before you're allowed to do it unsupervised. I mean, if you're both young, and trying to figure out how it works and what you like, and what your partner likes, it's a mess.

Cue the Monty Python sketch - "Excuse me Sir, do you have a license for this clitoris?"

There's also the sex ed scene from "The Meaning of Life."

There’s a story in there somewhere. (It’s way better than being a driver’s ed teacher.)

Go with it. You’re welcome.

Yeah, I found that out by accident a while ago. Since then I have had female characters who also know about it and take advantage of it. See, for example:

https://classic.literotica.com/s/esther-smiths-confessions

In 1903, no less. But it's not hard to find the details online. Even Wikipedia has it. Ladies and gentlemen, do your research.

I'm reminded of my favourite very old joke ... stand by:

Q: What's the difference between a pub and a clitoris?

A: Most men can find their way to a pub!
