What is Squirting?

It doesn’t ask permission. It arrives in a rush—sudden, surprising, sometimes loud, sometimes quiet. A full-body letting go. Squirting, also called female ejaculation, lives at the edge of control and release. For some, it’s a fountain of pride and power. For others, it’s an elusive mystery wrapped in myth and soaked in curiosity. And for many, it’s something they’ve never even talked about aloud.

What makes squirting so captivating isn’t just the spectacle—it’s the surrender. The moment where tension builds beyond language, and the body answers with liquid yes. Not because it’s expected. Not because it’s “supposed” to happen. But because everything aligned: pressure, arousal, stimulation, safety, and trust.

What Is Squirting, Really?

Squirting refers to the expulsion of fluid from the urethra during intense arousal or orgasmic release. It’s not the same as urine, though it does come from the same channel. The fluid often comes from the Skene’s glands, also known as the paraurethral glands, and varies in amount, texture, and timing.

Some people squirt with orgasm. Some don’t. Some squirt without any internal sensation of climax. Some squirt once and never again. All of it is normal.

It’s not a magic trick. It’s not a requirement. It’s not a badge of honor. But it can be… glorious.

Techniques and Triggers

While there’s no universal button, there are patterns that often lead to squirting. It tends to happen through internal stimulation—particularly of the anterior vaginal wall, near the G-spot area. The key is sustained, rhythmic pressure combined with high arousal and a total permission to let go.

Common techniques include:

  • Two-finger internal pressure, curved upward in a “come hither” motion toward the G-spot

  • Rhythmic penetration with consistent depth and speed

  • Simultaneous clitoral stimulation, either manually or with a vibrator, to help build full-body arousal

  • External pressure on the pelvis or mons pubis to amplify internal sensation

  • Verbal permission or encouragement that explicitly invites release—many people need to know it's okay to let go

Contrary to popular belief, squirting isn’t about pushing harder or going faster. It’s about depth—not just of penetration, but of presence. The more safety, the more likely the release.

Examples from Real Life

  • A woman in her 40s, who thought she “wasn’t the type,” learns to squirt during a long solo session with warm lighting, deep breath, and a curved glass toy—surprised not by the fluid, but by the emotion.

  • A queer couple uses a strap-on with a firm, slightly curved dildo to explore G-spot play; the receiver squirts repeatedly while lying on a pile of towels, laughing between waves.

  • A sex worker describes learning their own patterns and then coaching clients to squirt—often requiring permission to “make a mess” before the body would allow it.

  • A submissive is edged for an hour with internal and clitoral stimulation until they gush uncontrollably mid-orgasm, weeping with pleasure and overwhelm.

  • During an experimental scene, a couple discovers that a combination of percussive spanking, dirty talk, and deep fingers leads to unexpected (and unrepeatable) squirting—reminding them not every recipe works twice.

The through-line isn’t technique—it’s trust. With the body. With the moment. With the mess.

What It’s Not

Squirting is not:

  • A requirement for sexual success

  • Proof of real orgasm

  • Something only “some” people can do

  • Always dramatic, visible, or drenching

Some people never squirt and still experience profound orgasmic pleasure. Others squirt frequently but don’t associate it with climax at all. There is no gold standard. No prize. No hierarchy. Just sensation, release, and the stories we give them.

Support, Curiosity, and the Politics of Mess

Let’s not ignore it: squirting can be messy. Sheets, bodies, furniture—wet. For some, this is thrilling. For others, stressful.

Ways to support the experience:

  • Lay down towels or a waterproof blanket

  • Have water and aftercare items nearby

  • Avoid shaming language or surprise—stay present, affirming, and curious

  • Check in after: “How did that feel?” “Anything you need?”

We’ve been trained, culturally, to fear bodily fluids that aren’t neat or polite. But squirting is both. A refusal to stay tidy. A celebration of sensation that overflows.

It’s not a mystery. It’s a possibility. And when the body decides to offer it—it does so with force, with grace, and with a liquid kind of joy that says: this is mine to give.
