Hi, I've been looking around some sites for a while and haven't found any information on what I'm looking for and maybe that's because it's so obvious, but the more I look up information the more confused I get.

When a woman orgasms, where exactly does it come out? And do you need to lose your virginity before you can come? Some sites referred to the clitoris as a gland, which made me wonder if it came out there, but that didn't seem likely... so as you can see, my research hasn't helped and now I'm just outright asking. Thanks for your time and sorry if this is really a stupid question.

When you don't know the answer to something or can't find it, it's never, ever stupid to ask a question. What would be stupid is NOT to ask! Too, women -- and plenty of people of other genders -- are very often taught little to nothing about their sexual response systems and cycles, so not knowing about it hardly makes you stupid: it makes you have a lot in common with almost everyone.
Understand that for people of all genders, orgasm and ejaculation are separate -- though often related -- events. When a person with a penis reaches orgasm, they will often -- but not always -- ejaculate right afterwards. But things are a bit different for people with vulvas, likely in part because (we can only theorize, never having seen the original blueprints for the design of the human sexual anatomy ) female ejaculation isn't part of human reproduction like male ejaculation is.
Not all people with vulas ejaculate, and those who do rarely ejaculate with every orgasm. Too, it's pretty common for those who do ejaculate to do so either before orgasm -- sometimes well before -- after orgasm, or only with or around one orgasm before another. For those people with vulas who do ejaculate, when they do, it's understood to come through the urethra (where we also urinate from, just like male ejaculate comes through their urethra) and/or the paraurethral ducts, and most researchers at this time think that fluid comes from the Skene's gland, which is inside the vagina . But again, people with vulvas orgasm all the time without ejaculating, even people who do and can ejaculate, which not all people with vulvas do. There are plenty of people with vulvas having plenty of orgasms but never ejaculating, or not noticeably so.
In case that isn't clear, what orgasm is isn't a sexual fluid excretion. That's what ejaculation is. Orgasm is, instead, a nervous system event , which many people often reach -- and experience genital, as well as whole-body sensation from -- through various kinds of genital sex . But some people can reach orgasm sometimes without any genital stimulus at all!
As far as virginity and orgasm goes, if by virginity you mean have vaginal intercourse , no. You not only do not need to have vaginal intercourse first or ever to orgasm, most people with vulvas will not reach orgasm from vaginal intercourse alone. Orgasm for people with vulvas is more likely to happen either through clitoral stimulus -- which intercourse doesn't often provide much of all by itself -- or, for those who have intercourse with orgasm, by combining activities which do provide clitoral stimulation during intercourse, such as by adding manual (with fingers) clitoral stimulation to oral sex . Lots of people with vulvas never have vaginal intercourse but have orgasms all the time.
The clitoris isn't a gland: it's a sexual organ whole unto itself. In fact, when we're in utero, before we're born, the clitoris is the homologous structure to the penis (in other words, fetuses that are assigned male at birth have that structure become a penis; those which will be assigned female at birth have it develop into a clitoris). When we're fully developed, they are largely the same size and still similar in many ways. We just can't see the whole size of the clitoris because a large portion of it is internal, around part of our vaginal canal, our outer labia and even stretching a bit down into both inner thighs, believe it or not. Nothing comes out of the clitoris, as it isn't an opening like the urethra, vagina or anus .

I read your info regarding female ejaculation. I was surprised to know it ejects from the urethra. However, I would love to know where it is produced. I have been unable to find any information regarding this. Your site is the first place I have ever been able to have the issue acknowledged. Thanks.
Like Stonehenge, solar eclipses, and countless other wonders of nature, female ejaculation has provoked both awe and controversy. Because the fluid in question is expelled from the urethra upon orgasm, many researchers, women, and their partners believed that the phenomena of female ejaculation was really just a loss of bladder control. The book, The G Spot , by sex researcher and educator Beverly Whipple, Alice Ladas, and John Perry, broke through the silence and embarrassment that surrounded female ejaculate, leading many to G-spot joy.
Now, researchers believe that female ejaculate is produced by the Skene's glands, which are located near a woman's urethra and are made of tissue that's similar in composition to a man's prostate gland. These researchers point to chemical analysis of female ejaculate that reveals the presence of high levels of prostatic acid phosphatase (a chemical secreted by the prostate gland and found in semen). This would seem to indicate that a woman's ejaculation is similar in composition to semen — without the sperm, of course. Female ejaculate is not pee. It's generally clear or somewhat milky and nearly odorless.
Although modern science may not know exactly yet what female ejaculation is, women who experience it, and the intense orgasms that usually accompany it, are only too happy to conduct their own experiments, and direct partners with cries of, "Oh, yes, right there... THERE!"

Female ejaculation has something of a mythical reputation when it comes to sexual health topics. Everyone has questions: Can a vagina actually ejaculate like a penis? If it can, is that even normal? And what comes out, anyway? To get answers, we reached out to sex experts, who separated the myths from the facts.

Put simply, "vaginal ejaculation is the expulsion of fluid through the urethra during sexual arousal (but not necessarily orgasm)," New York–based sex educator Corinne Kai tells Health .

Does that mean vaginas can ejaculate? Well, that is why the phenomenon is colloquially known as squirting. But "what women define as 'ejaculation' varies widely, and there is no accepted scientific standard for qualifying as female ejaculation by the volume or speed of the expulsion," Nicole Prause, PhD, a sex researcher at UCLA, tells Health .

So while one person might experience more of a forceful stream of liquid, another might feel a gushing sensation. "The fluid amount tends to range between 30 and 150 milliliters," says Kai, which can be just a drop of liquid or so much that you soak your bedsheets. "Sometimes people don't even realize they ejaculated until they move and see a wet spot, while others can feel when it's happening," she adds. "It depends on your body."

The first major study that looked into squirting back in 2014 determined the liquid was actually pee. Yep, "the fluid comes from the bladder," says Prause. Researchers found urea, creatinine, and uric acid concentrations—all major components of urine—in the excretions of all seven study participants. (Keep in mind that's a tiny sample size, and it's hardly considered representative of half the world's population).

But the ejaculate is also not pee. "Many have argued that squirting isn't real and that people who experience this just need to go to the bathroom before sex," says Kai. "It is released through your urethra, but it's been found to resemble enzymes found in male prostate fluid. " The male prostate gland sits between the bladder and penis and secretes fluid to help nourish sperm.

While the liquid may contain small amounts of urine, additional research suggests that the milky white fluid comes from the Skene's glands, which are "tucked inside the wall of your vagina near the urethra sponge, right at the G-spot," says Kai. "The location explains why sensations along this erogenous zone have been associated with vaginal ejaculation."

Male ejaculate delivers sperm to the female reproductive system, and procreation depends on it. But scientists aren't quite sure of the purpose of the Skene's glands, which are also known as the female prostate. Nor do they understand the reason women ejaculate.

"There have been many studies done about whether or not vaginal ejaculation is related to the menstrual cycle or pregnancy, but none have been proven," says Kai. "However, some researchers have found that vaginal ejaculation could provide a secretion that could protect against UTIs or even contain antimicrobial components like zinc."

If you believe the multitude of squirting videos that exist on porn websites, it certainly seems so. "I suspect that 'female ejaculation' is portrayed as a way to suggest that the female performers are actually turned on," says Prause. Thanks to their availability on porn sites, female ejaculation has become somewhat of a novelty—and also something many women think they should be able to do.

Yet only 10 to 50 percent of women experience "involuntary ejaculation," according to the International Society for Sexual Medicine. Because "we don't know how this expulsion is triggered, it's impossible to know at this time whether some women may be more or less prone to experience it," says Prause.

So despite what porn would have you believe, not every person with a vagina can or will experience ejaculation. "Sex researchers [believe] that G-spot stimulation increases the probability of being able to experience ejaculation, and sex coaches have said that it can be learned," says Kai. "It's likely that the sensation before vaginal ejaculation holds people back from releasing their muscles and allowing it to happen. It can feel like you have to pee right before vaginal ejaculation, which is linked to a lot of shame or embarrassment in people not wanting to pee on their partners."

If you have never ejaculated but want to give it a try, it certainly can't hurt. At the very least, you'll get a lot of pleasure out all the G-spot stimulation, and if you are able to ejaculate, it might be a turn-on for you (or your partner). But as novel as the idea of squirting may seem, remember this: No research has linked female ejaculation to better sex. Your pleasure in bed definitely doesn't depend on your ability to ejaculate or not.
