I've seen no discussions about this, so I thought I would bring it up. Many here have talked about how important the clitoris is, but what about labia(majora sp?)? Mine tend to swell quite a bit, in fact they get very red from engorgement. With the engorgement comes increased sensitivty, and many times during oral or manual stimulation just gently stroking them can send me over the edge into orgasm. When being manually stimulated, I either like to have DH or a vibe to penetrate me with. The sliding against them is very pleasurable to me, and if I grip on DH during it feels even better. So I guess what I am looking for is how important do you think stimulation to the labia is? To me it is equal to G-Spot stimulation. Not necessary for an orgasm, but defintely fun to do ;o) Does anyone have any links(*informational* links LOL) that discuss this aspect of women's sexuality?

No links, but I agree on the arousal/sensitivity. Its a great tease before jumping right on the clit.

While I don't have the strong reaction that you do, I do very much enjoy having them caressed.

Sounds like your experience is much like mine. And that's the reason why I usually mention gentle tugging or stimulation of the labia, particularly when a woman is trying for multiple orgasms and her clitoris is too sensitive after the first one. It's a more indirect stimulation utilizing the clitoral hood which slides over the clitoris with each tug.

I think that you're right, the labia is probably overlooked. There is so much focus on the clitoris during intercourse and oral sex. Like you, my partner's labia swell and 'blush' as she becomes aroused, and I find these visible signs of arousal a big turn on for me.

I agree that stimulation is important too. I'm not sure if I could make her orgasm just from that alone but some sustained and gentle manual or oral attention in that area can definitely get her attention. Amongst other things she likes it when I draw them gently into my mouth or tug gently on them with my lips - enough to mention how much she likes it anyway. Or if we are just starting foreplay plenty of time spent making very light teasing, stroking movements with well lubricated fingertips seems to be much appreciated.

There's definitely more to stimulating a vulva than going straight for the clitoris :-)

Sorry, no links that I know of.

Hmmm. I thought perhaps this would get more input, but perhaps it's not as interesting as other errogenous(sp?) zones?

I'm happy to chat, however I don't discuss sex issues off the board.


May I have the serenity to accept what I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.

Okay, that's when it gets a little TOO anal for my taste! I've never measured a body part in my life, and I'm not starting now.
