Gals, do you all think you know everything you need to know about your clitorises? They're awesome, stimulating, they're the primary way women have orgasms, so, what else could there be? The answer is: a lot!
Gals, here are 5 things you might not have known about your clitoris, courtesy of Dr. Emily Nagoski, author of Come as You Are: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life.
Guys, so don’t feel left out, I’ve included 4 hints for you to help provide more pleasure for your gal.
NOT JUST A NUB!
The clitoris isn't just the nub at the top of your vulva. It looks like just the small button that begins and ends there, but the clitoris actually extends deeply into the body, all the way down to the mouth of the vagina. It has internal structures as well, shaped like a wishbone.

I’M NOT “IN”!
The clitoris isn't "in" the vagina, either. The term vagina just refers to the tube that connects the (exterior) vulva to the (interior) uterus and cervix.

G MARKS THE SPOT!
Those same internal clitoral structures might actually be what we refer to as the G-spot. In sonograms, researchers looked at how the inside of our bodies looked during sex. They found that during penetration, the vagina flexes in such a way that it steers the penis to rub through the vaginal wall and onto the internal structures of the clitoris. This can vary from woman to woman, but for many women, when they experience “G-spot” orgasms, it's actually orgasms through stimulation of the internal extensions of the clitoris. Holy mistaken identity, Batgirl!

LIFE’S NOT ALWAYS A BOWL OF CHERRIES!
Not all clitoral stimulation feels pleasurable. We're told that the clitoris is the only organ designed purely for pleasure, but that's not always true. It's really designed for sensation, but if you're not turned on in a good way, any kind of clitoral stimulation might not actually feel good. Basically, the clitoris is not just a magic mini-wand that you can wave at any time of day and everything will magically happen. You have to be in the right mood first for anything good to happen there.

VARIETY- THE SPICE OF LIFE!
Clitorises vary greatly in size, anything from tiny peas to a reasonably sized pickle. The size really can vary that much, and every size, from the smallest to the largest, is completely normal (unless you're experiencing pain, in which case, you should see a doctor). And yes, the clitoris will expand when stimulated due to increase blood flow, just like a guy’s penis.
DON’T JUST LICK!
Instead of just licking her, use your lips and tongue to suck on her clit.
The entire vulva is filled with sensitive nerve fibers, so being able to suck on the glans or the head of the clit will stimulate those nerve fibers. Lightly nibbling on her inner and outer labia, or sucking the labia a little bit will also stimulate the nerve fibers.
The sucking will also lead to increased vasocongestion- higher blood flow- to the vulva and the clitoris.

CIRCLE FOR A LANDING!
When researchers from Indiana University surveyed 1,055 women about their favorite sex techniques, 3 out of 4 women said they love it when you trace little circles on or around her clit. You can use your tongue, a finger or two, or all of the above!

TRY BEING HER WINGMAN!
While you're drawing those circles, try focusing on the areas near her clitoris on either side- and only occasionally coming in for a landing. In that same Indiana University survey,-the same study that was used to create the website OMGYES- 7 out of 10 women said they liked this technique: they called it “hinting”.
"Use one finger flicking all around the clitoris, but not directly on it," says Ava Cadell, Ph.D.. "To bring your partner to orgasm, once she is at the height of pleasure, you’ll want to maintain a steady consistent stroke.”

PLAY THE KAZOO!
Once your partner is in the midst of an orgasm, add some oral vibration to her experience.
Make your lips into an O and gently take her clitoris in your mouth. Then, make humming sounds as you suck- as if you are playing a kazoo- so that she can be like the Beach Boys and feel those Good Vibrations!
