Though rare, female ejaculation is certainly not a myth. It’s something to celebrate and (excuse my wording) to gush about, but more often than not it’s just misunderstood. You may have heard of it by other names, like squirting, the female “orgasm” and even gushing. Whatever you call it, it’s just not pee.
One of my friends described a horrible experience involving an older woman. To begin with, she had saggy boobs, he said, but that wasn’t the end of it. When they were at the end of it, he remembers feeling an incredibly wet bed, like her water had broke (but she wasn’t pregnant). It was gross, and he didn’t like it.
But he didn’t know what it really was. We’re not used to hearing stories about women shooting anything out of their vaginas besides babies, and even then more women are opting for C-sections. Gosh darn it, things aren’t supposed to come out of vaginas—they’re meant to hold and convey things inward and upward. Whether or not blood and ejaculate actually do come out, we keep hush-hush about those sorts of things.
