7 Eye-Opening Facts About The Clitoris That Will Make Your Jaw Drop

Pushing the “pink button” near a woman’s vagina will unlock the secrets to her deepest sexual pleasures. The clitoris is the most sensitive part of a woman’s body that can send vibrations up and down her spine when stimulated. Although the “magic button” can transport a woman and her partner to cloud nine, many men and women alike are unfamiliar with it. To boost your female genitalia IQ, Women’s Health has compiled a list of seven eye-opening facts about the clitoris that will make your head spin right round, right round.  

1. It’s A Sensitivity Center

The clitoris has approximately 8,000 nerving endings, which is more than anywhere else in the female body. The penis only has 4,000.

2. It’s Similar To A Penis

The clitoris is not shaped like a penis, but it is similar to the male anatomy because it has a glans, a foreskin, also known as the clitoral hood, and even a shaft. Moreover, it swells up when it’s aroused.

3. It Has One Job

The “lady button” has one job, and one job only, and that’s pleasure. It is the only part of the female body whose main function is to serve as pleasure.

4. Size Does Matter

Similar to the never-ending penis debate of whether size matters, the size, or distance of a woman’s clitoris from her vagina may affect her ability to orgasm. A recent study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found out of 30 women, 10 of them said they had a difficult time orgasming. These 10 women tended to have clitorises that were father from their vaginal opening.

5. It’s Way Bigger Than You Think

The clitoris is more than just a button. Underneath the shape seen in a female diagraph, the clitoris has a shape of a wishbone, with two legs that extend 3 inches into the vagina, which connects to the G-spot. This pleasure zone has a lot of reach and power during pleasure.

6. It Has A Limit

Sorry ladies, but the clitoris can reach its maximum pleasure potential once it’s stimulated. If it continues to be stimulated, pleasure can soon turn into pain and discomfort. The clitoris can become very sensitive, so it’s best to ease the stimulation, and focus on the surrounding areas.

7. Positioning Is Everything

The perfect positioning for clitoral stimulation may be the coital alignment technique. If a man is on top, he can scoot up to about 2 inches so the base of the penis is directly aligned with the woman’s clitoris, according to Women’s Health. This should be followed by a rocking motion while the woman wraps her legs tightly around the man’s thighs.

Couple Having Underwater Sex Hospitalized After Getting Stuck Together: Is Penis Captivus To Blame?

Sex on the beach is a sexcapade most couples fantasize about but seldom act out. An amorous Italian couple on vacation decided to make the most of a warm day on a deserted beach when they dipped themselves into the deep blue sea at Porto San Giorgio, Italy, to have underwater sex. The sexy rendezvous in the sea ended up in agony when the couple’s genitals got stuck together in a passionate clinch.

According to The Local, the man was unable to extricate himself from the woman due to suction. They remained in the water until they caught the attention of a woman walking along the beach, who offered them a towel as they struggled to get back to the shore. The couple solicited medical help by calling a doctor to the scene.

The case was so severe the doctor could not do the job at the beach and decided to take the couple to the emergency room of a local hospital. The woman was given “an injection commonly used to dilate the uterus of pregnant women,” as Il Mattino reported. The adventurous couple was free to go their separate ways.

The news reports suggest this sexual mishap could be a case of the rare phenomenon penis captivus. This is the medical term used to describe for when the penis is essentially held captive by the vagina during sexual intercourse. When the penis is held captive by the vagina, neither partner can separate their genitals. Dr. John Dean, a senior UK-based sexual physician, told the BBC: “The muscles of the woman’s pelvic floor contract rhythmically at orgasm. … While those muscles contract, the penis becomes stuck and further engorged within [the vagina] until the muscles relax. Blood can flow out of the penis again, the penis starts to go down after orgasm, and the man can withdraw.”

Although Dean passes penis captivus off as a mild occurrence in humans, there have been reports of some of the most severe cases. A couple from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, could not untangle themselves from one another for seven hours during sex. Vongai Nhopi and her husband Cain Chamhuze remained stuck together until his father physically separated the pair, myzimbabwe.co.zw reported. In a desperate attempt to be not be attached at the hip, the couple called upon their neighbors for help. The resident took pictures of the couple as they struggled for their freedom.

Unlike these two unique cases, most of the time, penis captivus resolves on its own within a few minutes.  

How To Prepare Yourself For A Hot Night With Him

One may look at the title of this article and think, “why do I have to prepare myself?” This isn’t just any kind of night you are preparing yourself for- this article is all about pampering yourself before you get down to business- whether it is with someone else, or all by yourself.

Sure, you may read about and hear all about pampering and preparing yourself for a big date- which is very important, but it is also equally as important to prepare yourself for what the date may end in- and that is sex.

Read on to give yourself some helpful tips on preparing and pampering yourself.

1. Look the part

Of course, if you are with someone that you have been with for a while and that you know thinks you are beautiful whether you are all dolled up or have just rolled out of bed, it is easy to fall into a pattern of not primping yourself up before having sex with them. That is completely fine, but to really arouse them- and also to just to feel your sexiest, there is nothing wrong with making yourself look the best you possibly can.

This goes for if you have decided to have a hot night in with your significant other- or even just someone you may have swiped right on and you know will just be a one night stand. If you are going out before you will wind up staying the rest of the night in, wear something that you feel sexy and confident in.

Wear your favorite color, a dress you think your body looks great in, or a pair of shoes that make you feel like you could walk any runway. It all starts with feeling great about yourself. Don’t wear something that will make you feel self-conscious.

That especially goes for what you are wearing underneath your clothes- even if it isn’t much at all. Wear lingerie that you feel your hottest in. Wearing something that you are constantly worried about how you look or how you feel while wearing it can take away from the night and how you will feel when having sex. If you have the money, I think it is great to head over to any store that sells bras, underwear, and lingerie and buy yourself something new to wear.

If you love lace, wear that, if you think red lingerie makes you look irresistible, put that on. You deserve to feel your sexiest. Also, do your hair and makeup (even though it may be ruined by the end of the night- that is how you know you had good sex) exactly how you like it.

For me, I feel the sexiest if my hair is long and loose and I am wearing a smoky eye and nude lip. Whatever you can do to make yourself feel the sexiest you possibly can, do it. Your self-confidence will radiate, and your partner will see that- and it will make them want you even more.

2. Make sure you are safe

I know, talking about birth control and protecting yourself can be a total buzz kill. But do you know what is also a complete buzz kill? Immediately worrying after you have had sex that you are pregnant, or have caught an STD, or having that on the back of your mind the whole time when you are having sex. If you are on the pill, make sure you are taking it every single day! Even missing one day can completely affect the effectiveness of the pill.

Even as a woman, make sure you have extra condoms. It doesn’t just have to be the guy that is responsible for providing that. I know that when you have a one night stand especially, sometimes there is no time for discussing past sexual history and if you have been tested for STD’s- I also get that it can be really awkward to discuss and you may feel like you are offending the person you are having sex with.

For one, it is not offensive, and two, you will feel so much better if you know that the person you are with is clear of any STD’s. Remember, one thrilling night, no matter how mind blowing it may be, is not worth something that may haunt you or affect you for the rest of your life. Safe sex is sexy.

3. Give a sneak peek of what’s to come

Yes, sexting has a bad reputation and there are many people out there who misuse it- be careful about what you are sending to whom, but honestly, I personally see nothing wrong with sexting- and it can be very fun. If you know that you are going to see someone later on that you are going to wind up in bed with, it can be really fun and sexy to ruffle their feathers earlier on and give them a little sneak peek of what they will be getting later on.

Earlier in the day, send them a sexy picture- nothing too revealing, but maybe a little sneak peek of the lingerie that they will be seeing you in later. Or, send them a message of all of the things that you want to do to them/you want them to do to you when they have sex with you later on. The more details, the better.

Never be embarrassed by what you say either, express your sexuality however you want. There is nothing wrong with sexting someone that you trust- especially if it will just get them going and improve how they perform in bed later on. It is also just very fun to drive someone crazy and make them want you more and more. Sexting can do just that.

4. Make sure it’s the right person

Let me explain this further- by the “right person” I don’t mean the person you’re in a relationship, or the person that you are going to spend the rest of your life with. Chances are, your one night stand is not going to be your Prince Charming. By the “right person”, I mean someone that is not going to make you feel bad about yourself. The person that you are having sex with should not make you feel insecure about yourself.

The second the person you are with starts making comments whether it be about your appearance or who you are as a person, that is when that person has to go. It is not worth it, and chances are, it will make you much less turned on.

Even if it is just someone that you know you will only be with for one night, a friend with benefits, the person you are in a relationship with or anything in between- it is extremely important that they do not degrade you or make you feel insecure. There is nothing that will make you less inclined to sleep with someone than if they make you feel bad about yourself.

5. Going solo

Who says that a hot night in has to be with someone else? Ladies, you know what I am talking about. If you need me to spell it out for you, I am talking about one of the greatest things you can do for yourself- masturbate. There is no shame in talking about it or doing it.

No matter what you use to get yourself off, whether that be your fingers, shower head, a sex toy- anything, treat yourself to a night in. If you have the money, maybe look into buying yourself a new sex toy and stay in for the night and try it out.

That can be very fun, and something to look forward to- especially if you have had a stressful day. Whip out that vibrator, and think about something that will get you off. It can honestly be really fun to think about all the things you want someone to do to you- let your imagination run wild. You don’t have to share your fantasies with anyone else. Some of the best orgasms of your life will come from masturbation- I can guarantee that.

Do you have any other tips on preparing yourself for a night that you know will end in bed- whether that be with someone else or by yourself? If so, feel free to comment below. Ladies, there is nothing wrong with expressing your sexuality. Own your sexuality, and feel confident in yourself.

How To Be The Perfect Wife – 8 Super Simple Tricks

Knowing how to be the perfect wife is a difficult thing. After all, there is a massive stereotype about being the perfect wife that has been around for plenty of decades.

However, when it comes down to it all, there are definitely do's and don’ts for being a wife. If you do all of the right things you can easily be the perfect wife.

Before delving into how to be the perfect wife, I feel that it is of the utmost importance to say that you should be the wife you want to be, and the wife that suits you and your partner.

It is very important to make sure you don't lose who you truly are while trying to be the perfect wife. Your partner married you, for you. You need to mold these ideas of how to be the perfect wife to fit your life, and so that it will not change who you are as a person.

Read on to learn about certain traits and behaviors which will help you figure out how to be the perfect wife!

1) Honesty

This is a crucial characteristic for becoming the perfect wife. You need to always be honest with your husband. If you lie to him, even about the smallest of things, then your partner will grow to not trust you.

Additionally, if you are married to someone, you should feel comfortable enough to tell them anything and everything and not have to lie about it.

As well, the best way to look at it would be to also realize that if you are honest with your husband, then there is a higher chance that he is also completely honest with you as well.

Consider it this way, if you lied to him about everything that would mean that he would sense it and that your relationship is not built upon that bond of trust. However, if you both don’t lie, then you have that strong foundation of trust that you both won’t stray from.

2) Care

Care, a simple, four letter word. However, it has a lot of meaning. You need to show your partner that you care by doing things for them when they are sick, stressed, busy, or even when everything is absolutely and blissfully perfect.

Although showing it through physical actions is great, you still also need to show that you care through talking and listening. You can easily do this by asking him about his day, and other questions about his hobbies, or plans, and such. By doing this it shows that you are taking an interest in his life and are invested in it.

3) Compassion

Being compassionate to any negative emotions your husband is feeling is just another important trait you need to have if you are wondering about how to be the perfect wife. You need to show that you care enough, and are compassionate enough, to his emotions.

You also need to show him that you will try your hardest to help him through whatever it is he is going through. It could be health issues, family issues, stress at work, loss of a friend, or just something else. He may need space, time, or all your support and compassion in the world.

You know your husband best, and you know the form of compassion he will need to get through whatever it is that is bothering him.

4) Loyalty

For any relationship to work, no matter the stage it is in (dating, a serious relationship, engagement, or marriage), you must always be loyal to your partner, just like how they must be loyal to you.

You need to trust that your partner will not cheat on you, flirt with others, or even check out other women.

Additionally, to be the perfect wife, you must also be loyal to your partner at all times. Even if you are hitting a very rough patch or are fighting a lot, you still need to be loyal to your partner. If you love them and they love you, you will work it out.

Although you may not want to think about rough patches, it is still very important to realize it will happen as you are married and together, but it doesn’t mean it is the end of the world.

It is just part of normal relationships. If you both fight, you need to talk things out and work things out. That way, you are both happy and trying to be better for each other.

5) Intimacy

Light those romantic candles, put your sexy lingerie on, and some romantic music. If that doesn’t work for you and your partner, then set up a sensual setting that will work for the two of you.

However, you should definitely consider incorporating body oil massages, lots of kisses, and some different locations for your sexy evening to heat things up.

By doing this, you will be doing something that is an important part of any relationship. Sex is not the basis of any relationship, but the romance and physical intimacy of sex is something that also bonds and connects the two of you.

When learning how to be the perfect wife, it also means you need to remember that sex and being intimate may take some surprise planning.

Yes, the heat of the moment is amazing, sexy, hot, and absolutely orgasmic, but sometimes planning something out as a sexy surprise, is critical to having a healthy and happy marriage.

6) Talk and listen

Talking with your husband about your day or anything that the two of you can discuss is amazing. Conversation is extremely important and the more communication the better.

However, sometimes, you need to remember that you also should not talk, and you should just listen. You need to listen with an open mind, even if it is something you don’t want to hear. After all, this is how you learn and grow together.

7) Date

Remember when you were young, just dating, and would always go out on an amazing date. Whether it was hiking, working out, weekend road trips, shopping, swimming, cafes, concerts, museums, or even movie nights, you went out together on dates.

Just because you are married it does not mean that the dates end. You still need to do all of those things together because it is what allowed your love to grow and flourish. It is also something which created such amazing moments and memories for the two of you.

Most couples, once they are married, stop planning dates and adventures. They also stop even planning date nights where they stay in.

It is really important to do this as it will provide so much energy and fun to your relationship. Just because you are married, it doesn’t mean the dates, romance, planning, and going out ends.

8) Split the chores

If you want to know how to be the perfect wife then it is important for you to know that you need to split the chores. You, or your husband, should not be the person who does everything.

You both need to split them up and get them done when they need to be done. That way, it will not get done at a time of inconvenience. It will also mean that your partner does not have to do it because you did not do it.

Additionally, if your husband is sick or too busy, then you should definitely take over his chores, and he should do the same for you in moments of when you are sick, or too busy.

Regardless, you both need to help each other out around the house for things to flow and work out nicely with no building resentment.

If you want to know how to be the perfect wife, then look at the woman your man fell in love with. Be her, and stay by her. Yes, people change as they grow, but remember to never lose touch with who you truly are.

In the end, your husband loves you for you, and that is what matters. You are the perfect wife. If you work on the traits mentioned above, then you will find that you are not only a perfect wife, but you are also a wife who is loving and caring. A wife, who supports, loves, helps, and enjoys spending time with her husband.
