There is nothing that you're "supposed" to feel. There are virtually no nerve endings inside the vagina with the execption of the "g" spot (which many people never find). The opening of the vagina can feel pain, and can feel pressure. The inside of the vagina can feel pressure, not much more for most women. The vagina isn't actually a woman's main sexual organ, the clitoris is. There are more nerve endings in the clitoris than in the head of a man's penis, and THAT is where most women get their pleasure, many during foreplay, and/or during intercourse if you or he or your position provide the clitoral stimulation to go along with the intercourse.

Men get THEIR pleasure from penile stimulation....that can come from the vagina, the mouth or the hand!

I think it's all different for different people. I don't think my clit is nearly as sensitive as some peoples. For me the feeling that I so love is feeling filled up way in there -- there is something about the pressure and fullness that literally makes my knees weak, during and for a couple of hours after.

dakine, just curious here, what are your thoughts on the infamous "cul-de-sac"?

Other than the fact that I live on one, and it's great because it eliminates "thru traffic", I have no opinion.

I've seen the phrase mentioned here a few times, and assumed it meant the end of the vagina, where the cervix meets the vagina.......because the vagina is a cul-de-sac. The translation of that is "bottom of the bag"....a dead end, just like my street, and my vagina.

From the medical description of the Douglas pouch, it's a small area behind the cervix....and I've seen nothing that attributes any special feeling or sexual arousal to the area. Since it is up against the colon or rectum, possibly there are some of the same nerve endings that are stimulated during anal sex. I really couldn't attest to that because I'm not a fan of anal sex.

Since my uterus and cervix were removed many years ago, I would assume that the removal of the cervix would leave that area more accessible during sex, but I've never noticed anything special occcur from contact with that area.

This is the only medical description that I could find in a search, and it says nothing about any sexual feelings:

"Cul-de-sac, aside from being any "blind pouch or cavity that is closed at one end," is used specifically to refer to the rectouterine pouch (the pouch of Douglas), an extension of the peritoneal cavity between the rectum and back wall of the uterus. From that fact comes:

Culdoscopy, the introduction of an endoscope through the vagina into the cul-de-sac;
Culdoscope, the viewing tube (endoscope) that is used to look into the cul-de-sac; and
Culdocentesis, the aspiration (withdrawal) of fluid from the cul- de-sac."

The "operative" word here is "some". If you polled a thousand women, you'd probably hear about four or five hundred "sensitive" areas.

All I can think of is that to get to that area, you'd have to be in the area of the cervix, and for most of us, penis pushing on cervix is usually painful, or at least uncomfortable.

We're all different, and I think that's great.

According to what I`ve read, the cul de sac is beyond the cervix, and is supposed to be very pleasurable to some women... the thing is most guys are not long enough to reach it, so who knows.....lol

That's the part I don't get. There IS nothing "beyond" the cervix! Think of the "bottom" of the vagina....as the bottom of the bag. The cervix is there, like a donut sitting in the bottom of a bag that's the exact circumference as the cervix. There's nothing around it but the side walls of the vagina.

According to the article, it's the "area" at the dorsal end of the cervix, which lies directly upon the rectum. So rather than the "bottom", it would be the back side of the vagina. And I can believe that for some women, the pressure on that area would produce feelings in the rectum.

Doesnt the cervix kinda tent and move out of the way to allow for deeper penetration?
