Is there a limit to the number of orgasms your fingers can handle might be the better question. I have found no data that offers precise figures—and likely wouldn't, since female sexual response is as varied as women themselves and research around it is scant. Meanwhile, sergeant, what's this all about: "by the time we reached number nine, I couldn't find her spot anymore, or it was always running away from my fingers." Prodding an organ and keeping a scrupulous tally of its reactions until it literally goes AWOL seems a bit hostile. While it appears the number of orgasms some women can have is to some extent limitless, they are, like tequila shots, something you may want to respectfully pace before someone passes out or starts punching people.

Dr. Jim Pfaus shares some current information about the mystical G spot: "Part of the problem is that the tissue there is not equally identifiable in all women. Beverly Whipple at Rutgers claims that all women have one, and I don't disagree, but the 'ribbed' region where it is supposed to be in all women isn't so ribbed in some women, is utterly unidentifiable in others and is a switch for a geyser in others. So looking for it with the precision that anatomists like is almost like studying people who claim to have ESP. They just don't do it on demand in the lab."

The G spot has often been called the female prostate, but Pfaus feels this is a misnomer. "A recent paper used sonography to look at the blood flow to the clitoris," he says. "It turns out the clit is not just the little man in the boat but is actually a huge inner structure that essentially resembles a penis. Where is all that spongiosum that holds blood for the clitoris? In the anteroventral region of the vagina." This is the area where the pelvic bone meets the inner region—typically where the G spot is located. "Essentially this is the tissue that would have become a penis if girls had a crippled X chromosome," says Pfaus. "And it is larger in women who were more androgenized in utero, and perhaps more 'functional' from the standpoint of an erogenous 'zone.' So perhaps the G spot is a region of that inner clitoral complex that has a concentration of nerve endings."

Regardless, until researchers are freed from what Pfaus refers to as the "ethical bondage" that comes with studying sexual response, information around the G spot will remain somewhat controversial. "Is the G spot a relatively androgenized prostate or the tissue that would have become a prostate if the woman had a crippled X chromosome?" he asks. "No one knows, although even Bev Whipple discounts that idea given where it comes from relative to where the prostate comes from. Personally, I am going to put my money behind the clitoral complex. It makes far more sense than a slightly differentiated prostate."

As for your own research, you may find that a toy designed to stimulate the spot helps when your fingers give out or you need a boost. There are many options to choose from, depending on what kind of rigidity and/or vibration your wife enjoys—take a look at ,a href="http://www.tinyurl.com/lqlkxb">www.tinyurl.com/lqlkxb.

Hey guys, there's a new condom on the market! The Durex Bare is made of a synthetic latex called polyisoprene and is apparently not just an adequate alternative for people with latex allergies but a damn fine rubber all around. At least according to my intern Dimitri, who, since I have no penis-bearing love interests at the moment, was dispatched to the tubs with a 12 pack to conduct some tests. He came back with these findings (and one condom left, the lazy little shit): "Size doesn't matter in this case," he enthuses. "The first thing I noticed is that a 56mm diameter in a polyisoprene condom is very comfortable—I was worried when I looked at the box that these would be too big—but these ones stay on more snugly at the base than the 52mm latex, without feeling constrictive. I've been in both top and bottom situations involving slippage issues with some 52 and 53mm latex brands. But with these, in fact, there was one point when I totally forgot I had it on and buddy was jacking me off and I thought I was wearing nothing. The second thing I noticed is that even when I became semi-hard instead of full-on bone, this sucker didn't budge. I find with latex that if I start to get soft, the condom will easily fall off. This gave me an added boost of confidence."

Dimitri gives Bare top marks for both topping and bottoming. "When bottoming, I didn't have that I-just-had-a-condom-in-my-ass after-feeling. For topping, I worked these in a variety of angles and positions with no discomfort, slippage or damage—angles my uncut penis wouldn't normally enjoy with a latex condom. I also tried these with a couple of different lubes—both water- and oil-based [although it explicitly states on the box that these are not to be used with oil-based lubes, so please do this at your own risk] and had no problems."

Dimitri concludes that he "would and could still use latex in the heat of the moment but if I had time to plan a good safe fuck session, these would be on my list of essentials."
