Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
`In the nineteenth century there was no such thing as the female orgasm. It was simply called ”the relief of tension in the female.” When a woman was feeling especially sexually aroused, her husband, not knowing what to do, would take her to a doctor. Masturbation was the cure to this ”hysterical tension.” After the diagnosis, a midwife or the doctor himself would arouse the woman until orgasm by means of a steam-powered vibrator.
It wasn’t until the 1940s that the female orgasm and the g-spot were introduced into the mainstream. Until Dr. Ernest Grafenberg’s discovery of the ”small mass of erectile tissue around the female urethra,” the clitoris was thought to be the only source of female orgasm. After Grafenberg’s discovery, research into the g-spot was practically dropped for about 30 years.’
