A Window into O’s (as in orgasm) is a series dedicated to empowering my pre-orgasmic friend. The more you know about something, the less mysterious it is. Understanding how our bodies respond to sexual stimulus, helps us envision the path to an orgasm.
God created our bodies to house his spirit. But, he also created our bodies to experience sensations. He gave us pain as a danger signal. He gave us pleasure to bond with our mates. (See Why Sex? on the nature bonding.)
Orgasm isn’t an idol to be sought after at all cost. It is a perk. Sometimes, we need tools to understand how the perks work. That’s what this series is all about. I want to give you tools to understand and then move forward to experience.
If you are new to this series, start here with the Introduction.
We’ve discussed the clitoral network which is breathtaking in design. (See: Exquisite Clitoris)
We’ve discussed the urethral sponge which is most likely the G-spot accomplice. (See: Delightful Urethral Sponge)
Today, let’s continue our look at interior O-potential and talk about Deep Spots
Ever heard of the A-spot?
The area of transition where the uterus meets the vagina is called the cervix.
 |
The cervix protrudes into the vagina ever so slightly to produce a crevice. This crevice is called a fornix. The anterior fornix erogenous (AFE) zone is found in the crevice on the side toward your naval. The AFE zone is also known as the Epicenter or A-spot. On the opposite side you’ll find the posterior fornix erogenous (PFE) zone..
All of the internal pleasure places were designed by God and have been explored since the creation of woman. Eventually, science catches up. The Journal of Sexual and Marital Therapy published findings of Dr. Chua Chee Annin 1997 regarding the AFE zone. Although there is controversy regarding his ethics in scientific method, he found a positive correlation between the AFE zone, vaginal lubrication and erotic sensitivity.
Why is this spot erotically sensitive? I believe it is because the juncture between the vagina and cervix is densely packed with nerves and is a point of a large supply of blood vessels.
What if you have a tilted (retroverted) uterus?
In the United States, 1 in 10 women have a retroverted uterus (according to rightdiagnosis.com). The normal position of a uterus is to lie forward toward the naval. But in 10% of American women, it lies toward the spine.
A tilted uterus, may cause the AFE zone to be more accessible. Abnormal physiology isn’t always a bad thing!
It’s crazy how female plumbing is laced with pleasure potential! Not every square inch, but a great deal more opportunity exists than most realize. However, a wife should be in a highly aroused state before the deep play begins.

This is probably a silly question, but how is the AFE zone stimulated?
No question is silly! The AFE zone is stimulated manually (with lightly stroking finger), with your husband’s penis or with a ‘marital aid.’
Just how deep is this when she is fully aroused?
According to a study published in the Oxford Journal of Human Reproduction (published 2/2006, http://humrep.oxfordjournals.org/content/21/6/1618.abstract), baseline dimension of the vagina is roughly 2.5 inches. The only definite numbers I could find on the length of an aroused vagina was from Masters & Johnson (1966), 4.3-4.7 inches. This lengthening is mostly due to the muscle tension and tissue engorgement which both cause the uterus to rise and pull the cervix up with it.
One last note, The Biology of Women (Ethel Sloane, 4th ed.) is very noncommittal, “The size of the vagina is so variable and so capable of distension that it is difficult to measure its dimensions.”
