Difference between male 'G-spot' and 'P-spot' as scientists make groundbreaking discovery

Concentrating on two specific pleasure points could make your fella a very happy man, science suggests.

Blokes are believed to have two highly sensitive spots in their intimate area and stimulating these directly can supposedly lead to some serious sexual satisfaction.

One is known as the 'G-spot', while the other is known as the 'P-spot'...but do you know the difference between them both?

Don't worry if not, as it's quite new to everyone really - given that recent research has flipped everything we thought we knew on its head.

A team of boffins in Spain, led by Alfonso Cepeda-Emiliani, conducted an anatomical study of the male member and managed to locate its main erogenous zone.

The scientists found that the frenular delta - the small area on the underside of the penis where the head meets the shaft - 'serves as a centre of sexual sensation' for men.

The experts at the University of Santiago de Compostela said that this area has a higher concentration of nerve endings, which therefore makes it more sensitive.

All of this suggests that science textbooks might have got it wrong all these years, as it was widely believed that the glans (or head) was the most sensitive part of the penis until the research was published.

So, the frenular delta is now known as the male G-spot.

However, those who have been around the block might remember that it was previously believed that this sensitive spot was actually located elsewhere.

A host of sexual health experts have described the prostate the male G-spot in the past, given that stimulating it will apparently blow a bloke's mind and allow them to experience pleasure that hits new heights.

This walnut-sized gland sits under your bladder, above the penis and in front of the rectum. The Cleveland Clinic explains that it 'creates fluids that help make up semen'.

'Connective tissues and glandular tissues make up its structure', which explains why it is so sensitive - and why a prostate massage is considered to be pleasurable by a lot of blokes.

Explaining what this is, the Cleveland Clinic said: "A prostate massage can be given by another person, but you can also give yourself a prostate massage by inserting a finger into your anus and gently pressing against and

massaging your prostate.

"The longstanding theory behind a prostate massage is that it helps express stagnant fluid and relieve symptoms of erectile dysfunction, painful ejaculation, prostatitis and pain in your pelvic region."

However, there isn't enough evidence to back these claims up just yet, as further research is needed.

But apparently, when the prostate's ejaculatory ducts - AKA the area that carries semen and prostatic fluid from the testes to the urethra - are stimulated, it can result in euphoria.

Sexperts have urged lads not to get all shy about enjoying this kind of thing in the bedroom.

"Guys have to remember this: the sensations and experiences that feel good have nothing to do with your sexual orientation or gender," Alicia Sinclair, founder and CEO of sex toy brand b-Vibe, told Men's Health last year.

"There’s nothing inherently feminine about receiving anal stimulation and penetration. You get to decide what anal play means to you and how you feel about it.

"And when you can let go of the idea that a sexual act has to be done by a specific gender, you’ll discover some amazing opportunities."
