Did you know that the clitoris has over 8000 nerve endings? That’s twice as many nerve endings as the head of the penis. That’s how intent the clit is on providing mind-altering orgasms. Another fun fact: over 70 percent of women have admitted to needing clitoral stimulation to experience orgasm. That’s most of us! But how do we find what makes our clit tick? It’s not just rubbing and licking. Here are five tips on how to stimulate the clitoris.
5 Tips on How to Stimulate the Clitoris
Locate your clitoris.
Due to the many layers of the vulva, the clitoris can be difficult to find. Where is it hiding? Right above your vaginal opening on top of your inner labia. When you touch it, it feels like a little nub, but it is so much more than that. The clitoral glans are actually what we feel but that’s only the tip of the sexual iceberg! About three-quarters of the clitoris is inside the body, connecting to 15,000 nerve endings. In other words, orgasm, orgasm, orgasm!
Ease into it.
The trick with how to stimulate the clitoris is to ease into it. The clitoris is super sensitive when you’re turned on. The best way to ease into the clit is to arouse the region right above your clitoral tip. Warm it up! Massage the sides of the vagina first. This causes the inner labia to rub up against the clit. It will be ready for direct contact in no time!
Try out a vibrator.
Vibrators are magical for clitoral stimulation – specifically a bullet! They work fast and were created for the clit. Use them when you masturbate or during sex when he’s hitting it from behind, or to get you going during foreplay. You can even masturbate in front of him (ooh la la!).
My favorite bullet is this black, sleek bullet from Amazon. It has different speeds and it is big enough to get any clitoris going no matter how your hood is shaped or how deep inside your folds it’s tucked in. A more discreet alternative is The Pen Vibrator, a pen-shaped bullet that you can take – and use – anywhere!
Stimulate the inner labia.
Sometimes the clit needs a break! Direct touch can feel like too much and some men are just too rough. That’s why this tip on how to stimulate the clitoris is all up to you and how verbal you are in bed. Tell him to stimulate your inner labia. Try it alone first before showing him. With your fingers or a vibrator, work your labia. If using your fingers, extend them so you can reach your clit and vaginal opening. Once you’ve found your sweet spot teach your man. Show him how to touch your clitoris: nice and steady, not fast and hard as if he’s using an eraser. You don’t want him to rub off your clit!
To the left, to the left…or to the right?
Your clitoral money spot might be to the left, to the right, or underneath your clits’ hood (direct contact). To discover what’ll make you holler, practice! The next time you masturbate, focus on one side and see what happens. Keep touching different areas of your clitoris until you hit the jackpot.
