Where does it comes from? Is it pee? And how might I make it happen for me? Here’s the lowdown on ‘squirting’: the expulsion of fluid from a woman’s down-belows around the point of orgasm.
The first time Gilly, 41, squirted, it left her on a high. “I was awestruck; it felt incredible, a huge release. I took a photo of the wet patch so I could reassure myself that it really had happened.”
Tash, 26, was a bit more floored – and worried about the carpet. “I was using my vibrator and sitting with my back to my bedroom door in case someone tried to come in, when suddenly there was a spurt, and I freaked out thinking I’d wet myself. It was the weirdest sensation; I felt a bit panicked and ashamed because I didn’t know what was going on. I mopped up the rug, then had a google.”
We’ve known for a long time that some women can produce notable amounts of liquid from their genitals – in some cases supposedly shot out with water blaster force – during sexual excitement or orgasm. Hippocrates and the Kama Sutra both reference female ‘semen’ (the former thought it helped to create children, the latter containing a detailed description of when it should be expected and why). In the 17th Century, Dutch anatomist Regnier de Graaf wrote a groundbreaking treatise, Concerning The Generative Organs Of Women, describing the fluid and linking it to an erogenous zone inside the vagina that was much like male prostate.
But it’s still unclear how many of us actually are squirters. Modern studies estimate the phenomenon is experienced in some form by anywhere from 10-54% of women and, according to a 2013 study of 320 participants, the amount of ejaculate released can range from approximately 0.3ml to more than 150ml. That’s anything from a few drops to half a cup.
This broad spectrum of findings is partly due to differences in how studies are conducted and definitions; but many specialists view female ejaculation and squirting as distinctly different things.
It’s a hotly contested topic – and one that’s receiving increasing attention as our understanding of the female body grows.
So, what is the liquid produced during ejaculation and where does it come from?
One of the biggest questions surrounding squirting is whether the mysterious fluid produced is simply urine. And certain research hints it could just be wee.
In one 2014 study, a sample of women were asked to go to the loo prior to sexual activity and then undertake ultrasound scans to prove their bladders were empty. After the women became sexually excited they were given a second ultrasound, which showed their bladders had re-filled significantly. Finally, a third scan after they’d squirted revealed empty bladders again, suggesting the liquid they’d released came from this source and was likely to be pee (or at least partly so).
“Squirting probably originates from the bladder, as there isn’t any other structure within that area of the female anatomy that’s able to hold that much liquid, or propel it with that much strength,” asserts pharmacist Abbas Kanani. “During orgasm, the muscles relax and make it difficult to hold in urine, so it’s released via the urethra.”
Yet plenty of other researchers think it’s wrong to write off squirting as being so straightforward.
Scientific analysis of expelled fluids conducted by American sexologist Beverly Whipple in the early 1980s (and then subsequent studies by others) discovered that urea and creatine – chemical constituents of pee – were only present in very low levels. They also detected additional substances which you wouldn’t usually expect to be present in a puddle of piddle. One of these was prostate-specific antigen, or PSA.
In men, PSA is produced by the prostate. Women’s bodies contain prostate tissue too, in structures known as the Skene’s glands or paraurethral glands, which are located on the front wall of the vagina, and some studies show they drain via ducts into the lower end of the urethra. Some specialists now believe these glands play a crucial part in helping to create the juice that’s set loose during squirting.
“The varying levels of development and size of these glands between individuals may partially explain why some women experience dramatic ejaculations while others don’t,” says sex educator Samantha Evans.
“But the psychological fear of being seen to have wet themselves is what holds a lot of women back from squirting, rather than there being any physical obstacle stopping them from doing so. The liquid passed tends to be clear, not yellow, and doesn’t have the same smell or taste as wee. As a former nurse, I’ve had numerous close encounters with urine and I don’t think it’s the same stuff!”
Anecdotally, scores of women who squirt agree. “There are instances where I’ve squirted and still needed a wee afterwards,” muses Hazel, 30. “My squirt fluid is colourless, even if I’m pretty dehydrated, when my wee looks more like Irn Bru,” adds Rashmi, 25.
Scientists have even suggested that squirting may have a purpose beyond pleasure: to keep women peeing painlessly post-sex. Some scientists have hypothesised that ejaculatory fluid could flush harmful bacteria out of the urethra after they have made their way up there during intercourse, helping prevent uncomfortable urinary tract infections.
Ultimately though, however the body squirts, what it squirts out and whether or not this has bonus benefits – why should any of that matter if it feels good?
Agreed. I want to try it! But how...?
Many women who do ejaculate say that what gets them there is stimulating the G-spot: an area about 5-8cm inside the vagina. It's on the front wall (so towards your belly button, not your back) and sometimes feels slightly rougher or more textured than the surrounding flesh. Rather than existing as a discreet anatomical structure in itself, the G-spot is now widely considered to be more of a ‘zone’, through which the Skene’s glands may be massaged, along with internal, hidden parts of the clitoris. And this we now know to be like an iceberg: the hood and head you can see on the outside of the body are merely the tip of a much bigger organ that extends downwards around the vaginal passage.
“I get my partner to rub my G-spot with their fingers, using a ‘come hither’ motion and firm pressure,” says Saffron, 34. “Specially angled sex toys make it easier for me to achieve the same effect alone.”
“If I carry on using my vibrator after I’ve climaxed, that can make me squirt,” reveals Daphne, 23. “It’s an intense, almost overwhelming sensation though; I have to push through what feels like an urge to urinate, but after that I love how primal and freeing it feels to have this mad nectar fly from my noo-noo!”
Other hot tips? Put a towel down first. And, as we're all made differently, remember that not everyone actually likes this kind of stimulation. In fact, some of us find the hunt for the G-Spot to be positively uncomfortable - make sure you’re experimenting for your own pleasure, not because you feel pressured. And definitely stop if you're not having a good time.
Oh right, so is there pressure on women to perform squirty tricks?
Some women feel there are expectations placed upon them to summon up Niagara Falls from their nethers by partners who might have watched squirting-themed pornography. “I’ve met guys who think girls can produce geysers on demand because of what they’ve viewed in adult films,” says Tash. A search for ‘squirt’ on one of the biggest porn sites brings up more than 110,000 results, although interestingly, the company reports females are 44% more likely to look for such material than males – research, perhaps?
Adult actresses themselves report that there’s growing demand for them to be able to ejaculate. Silvia Saige has worked in porn for four years and says: “It’s increasingly being asked for, and a woman’s career can take a financial upswing if she manages to squirt. I don’t get hired for jobs specifically featuring this act because it’s not something I can guarantee will happen with my body.”
Other performers who similarly can’t be sure they’ll squirt on cue fake it by drinking lots and urinating, or using vaginal douches: filling themselves with water, then contracting their vaginal muscles to catapult it out theatrically. So what viewers see on camera – and try to copy at home – may not be fully feasible.
Women may also feel they have to become high-pressure hoses because they or their partners mistakenly believe that squirting is ‘superior’ to other types of orgasm, and an ultimate sign of carnal achievement. “Some folks unhelpfully see female ejaculation as the Holy Grail of sexual pleasure,” says Karen Gurney, clinical psychologist. “This reflects our historical relationship with sex as a society: we often see it as goal-based; something to achieve or a skill to be practised, rather than something to experience and enjoy.”
But while some people are desperately chasing waterfalls because they’ve seen it in X-rated movies and think it makes them A+ lovers, and stress that they will be ‘less’ if they can’t conjure it up, others are holding back or feeling mortified when it happens because of stigma and fear.
“I’ve met women who are deeply ashamed of the fact that this happens to them, as they feel it’s unusual and have a sense that partners will be shocked or turned off,” reflects Karen. “They’re scared lovers will think they’ve wet themselves, and sadly, it can add to the distress and shame that some women already feel about their bodies and sexuality.”
The lesson? There’s nothing wrong with squirting, and there’s nothing wrong with not. Wetter isn’t inherently better, nor worse. Approach it with a sense of open-minded fun, not obligation or stigmatisation.
Anything else I water…sorry, oughta know?
A final note on squirting in porn, and the law. Because debates still rage over whether female ejaculate is urine, or how much of it is urine, material showing women squirting may be considered to be ‘water sports’ or urolagnia – a fetish for urination – and so potentially illegal according to UK obscenity laws.
“The British Board of Film Classification is currently responsible for reviewing what is permissible in porn, and there’s an ongoing Crown Prosecution Service consultation to try to refine how female ejaculation should be regarded legally, amongst other acts,” comments Myles Jackman, a lawyer specialising in pornography and obscenity. “At present, it’s a sketchy area.”

Pee or no? Science finally has an answer.
Yes, we're talking about the fluid that shoots out of some ladies during sex.
Maybe you saw it in porn, maybe you're a squirter or your partner is, or maybe you just really want to know what it is or what it feels like. Well, YOU'RE IN LUCK.
A recent study in the Journal of Sexual Medicine studied seven self-identified squirters to find out what’s actually going on down there. (Obviously, a larger sample size would be ideal, but come on — it’s probably not easy to round up a ton of people who squirt and who agree to do it for science.)
Here's how the researchers came to this conclusion: At the beginning of the study, all the women emptied their bladders and gave a urine sample, then underwent an ultrasound to confirm that their bladders were totally empty. Then they stayed in the exam room either alone or with a partner and did something to get sexually aroused — but they didn't orgasm. Once the participants were sufficiently turned on, they invited the researchers back into the room for another ultrasound, where the researchers saw that the ladies' bladders had filled back up a little bit (which makes sense — some time had gone by). Then the researchers left the room again, and the women continued going at it until they squirted.
After the women squirted, they were given another ultrasound and found that their bladders were empty again. Seriously. There was urine in there before they squirted, and it was gone after they squirted. You see where we’re going with this?
The researchers also analyzed the liquid in the lab and found that it had the same chemical composition as urine, lead study author Dr. Samuel Salama, tells BuzzFeed Life. This fluid comes from the bladder and the chemical analysis shows that it originates in the kidneys, explains Salama. So, yeah... looks like it's diluted urine.
Squirting is typically associated with the G-spot, and recent research suggests this area is better described as the clitourethrovaginal (CUV) complex, since it includes your clitoris, urethra, and the front wall of the vagina.
“If you have a good level of arousal, all your erectile tissue swells up, and that might put more pressure on your urethra,” Dr. Madeleine Castellanos, author of Wanting to Want, tells BuzzFeed Life. When you apply pressure to these areas, it can push the urethra and all that erectile tissue around it forward a little bit. And changing that angle between the bladder and the urethra in that way can make it easier to pee. At the same time, you’re getting a ton of stimulation that feels amazing and you’re relaxing your muscles enough to let go and have an orgasm, explains Castellanos. And when all those factors come together... some people end up squirting.
Most people think the two terms are interchangeable, but the researchers think they’re actually two different responses. While squirting is the bigger gush of liquid that shoots out from the urethra, female ejaculation is a much smaller concentration of liquid that occurs in the vagina. Female ejaculate is more viscous and stringier than urine (or regular lubrication) — almost the consistency of saliva, says Castellanos.
Female ejaculation, which comes from the female prostate (yep, that's a thing), can happen with orgasm or just tons of stimulation, but since it’s such a tiny amount and some gets pushed back into the vagina, you may not notice it, says Castellanos.
In women who squirt, female ejaculation can occur at the same time or not, which is what they saw in Salama’s study. In five of the seven squirting samples, researchers found prostatic-specific antigen (PSA), a protein that comes from the female prostate.
So it's tempting to assume that squirting also contains a little bit of this and a little bit of urine. But… that’s probably not the case, Salama says. What’s more likely is that five of the women experienced both squirting and female ejaculation. Squirting is still just diluted pee.
Important: Squirting doesn't necessarily always happen at the same time as orgasm, and not everyone finds it pleasurable. And as far as researchers can tell, there's no anatomical predisposition that determines if you can or can't squirt, says Salama. That said, it's essentially involuntarily peeing during sex, according to the research. So there's no reason to feel like you're ~not normal~ if you don't.
“A lot of gynecologists and sexologists know it’s urine,” says Salama. “We’ve known it’s urine for a long time, but no one wants to hear it. This is not glamorous, this is not sexy, this is not magical, but this is the truth.”
There is absolutely no reason to feel squeamish or weird about squirting — whether you do it, you enjoy it, you like when your partner does it, or whatever. Knowing the chemical composition behind this physiological response shouldn’t change whether or not you find it pleasurable.
“If you enjoy it, don’t worry about it, just continue to enjoy it,” says Castellanos. “For those that aren’t squirting, don’t feel like it’s this mission you absolutely must do.”

It's upsetting to me when I see people responding "ew" or "trashy" to this. I mean, it's part of a healthy sexual experience... I'm honestly more upset because I think it's just adding to the idea that anything women experience besides a few "oos" and "ahhs" in the missionary position... Read more
Well now I can't tell which one I've experienced. I'm pretty sure I've experienced both, on numerous occasions, and it's fucking WONDERFUL, but I'm now weirded out that it's "kind-of pee." Obviously, out of curiosity, I've smelled it and it does NOT smell like pee. Then again if it's... Read more
I'm a squirt and i gotta say it doesn't seem like pee. I may an, it doesn't smell like pee really. I feel like this study is just gonna make women even more ashamed of themselves. I'm also afraid if my hubby funds out he won't make me do it anymore.
