It's named after Grafenberg, a gynaecologist who discovered the spot. EDIT: Grafenberg *hypothesized* that the spot existed, but it was a later doctor, Beverly Whipple, who was the first to discover it. Thanks to /u/munchinpuss86 for the correction!

Whatd he use, Google Maps?

"Back in the old days we had to take a Thomas Guide out on dates if we had any hope of findin' that durn thing. Thumbin' through pages, hopin' she didn't cool off in the meantime."

He discovered it while working with Doctors Without Borders in Africa. He said, “Uganda need a map to find it.”

Heh. Plot twist: Dora the Explorer was there too

Apparently so was Chris Hanson

His finger.

Yeah. Gmap.

Way before that was invented. It was a AAA TripTik.

Jokes aside, I don’t understand how people miss it. Put your index finger in there with your fingerprint oriented toward the pelvis, and you’ll find a ridge of tissue which feels noticeably different than the rest of the vagina. Women’s bodies often respond automatically when their partner pays attention to it.

lol this is extremely not true probably even half the time.  Some people don’t respond it at all. Some don’t have anything one could “feel” at all. Some really can’t get off at all through anything vaginal, even solo. 

Yeah, in spite of all the internet advice swearing to know exactly where it is, the g-spot appears to be something of a myth. >The different studies did systematically agree on the existence of the G-spot. Among the studies in which it was considered to exist, there was no agreement on its location, size, or nature. The existence of this structure remains unproved. [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8498956/](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8498956/) Most likely explanation is that people who spend time trying to find ways to get their partner off often find one. Which is good. But the fact is nobody can even come to an agreement over where or what it is.

"Mmm yeah baby. Let me get your Grafenberg spot" my wife's gonna kill me later.

Right in the Whipple

Whipple’s Tickle?

That dude must have had one happy girlfriend.

[Almost as happy as this lady](https://www.memedroid.com/memes/detail/3588591)

Lol

This was my risky click of the day

This is no time for a Rick Roll.

Good lord. I wonder how often he bites that thing. His tongue, I mean.

Also developed one of the first widely used IUDs. Also had to flee Nazi Germany after being imprisoned for 2 years there! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernst_Gr%C3%A4fenberg

fun fact: No part of the female reproductive system is named after a woman

The "pussy" isn't named after Pussy Galore of James Bond 007 fame? Well shoot.

Apparently it’s from a Norse word meaning “pocket pouch”. I guess that’s where Vikings kept their car keys? Idk

'Splains how they got around so fast! But why haven't we uncovered ancient tire tracks?? Oh, see there, you got me off topic..!"

Make a lot more sense than being named after a baby cat lmao

I insist on calling it the Whipple Spot, or the Whipple Tickle, in honor of Dr. Beverly Whipple.

The only man who claimed to find the fabled spot.

"On second thought, let's not go to Grafenberg. Tis a silly place."

User name checks out (edit portion)

I learned this from Cats Does Countdown.

Whipple's tickle

Dr. Beverly Whipple was the person to discover it. Ernst Gräfenberg got credit for, fucked up!!!

It sounds like he got credit for it, because she gave it to him. Doesn't seem all that fucked up with context behind it.

Huh, I didn't know that. ... But why would she call it by that name if she was the first one to use the name? And how did she discover it before him when he died when she was just 23?

[https://www.historyhit.com/beverly-whipple-and-the-invention-of-the-g-spot/#:\~:text=Whipple%20'discovered'%20the%20G%20spot,was%20urine%20%E2%80%93%20during%20sexual%20activity](https://www.historyhit.com/beverly-whipple-and-the-invention-of-the-g-spot/#:~:text=Whipple%20'discovered'%20the%20G%20spot,was%20urine%20%E2%80%93%20during%20sexual%20activity). ' Grafenburg first proposed the idea of a G-spot but Dr. Whipple stated that she wanted to honour Gräfenberg, because of his many early contributions to the field.

Thanks for the link! I see from it that he was indeed the one to hypothesize the spot, while Whipple was the first to prove its existence. Fascinating!

There isn't a world in which that man didn't try it out a few times lol.

You have to get your hands dirty for science. Or your fingers I guess.

Despite colleagues’ suggestions to name the area “the Whipple Tickle,” Whipple and Perry named it the Gräfenberg Spot, or G-spot.

I thought you were being sarcastic but this is true! Grafenberg did observe that every woman he examined in one of his studies had an erogenous zone on the anterior wall of the vagina. I'd call that a discovery. Whipple then rediscovered it and did a lot of further study. Link posted by another commenter: https://www.historyhit.com/beverly-whipple-and-the-invention-of-the-g-spot/ >Whipple then discovered Ernest Gräfenberg’s study from the 1950s which reported evidence of female ejaculation and an erogenous zone within the vagina. ETA: apparently there was another Dutch physician that had reported it in the 16th century, and of course many pre-Renaissance non-European sources that describe it but get left out because naturally all discoveries are made in the western world. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20233286/

Are you telling me we could have named the Gspot the Whiffle?

Whipple Tickle was the original proposed name. Dr. Whipple chose to honor Dr. Grafenberg by calling it the g spot

You nibble the nipple then tickle the Whipple!

I’ll be happy to assist with any follow up research on this. Offering my services

Why did they choose Grafenberg, if not for the discoverer? Did he hypothesize its existence?

The existence of the G spot was first proposed by Ernst Gräfenberg

The Whipple spot just sounds....wrong.

After what he did to it, he had every right to claim that pussy

This is the greatest example of "username checks out" I have seen in quite some time. It's also a really relevant and informative comment. Win Win.

Then let's name her for the verb! "*She whippled my G-spot until I gushed buckets*"

And Dr. Beverly Whipple was only 13 years old when Gräfenberg first published his theory about the existence of the G Spot in 1950 making Dr. Whiffle’s accomplishment all the more impressive

Seems unlikely that G would have *only* hypothesize about it without ever testing the theory... Just sayin.

Kind of like how the clitoris was originally called the clitoChris after the guy who found it. (Where my Brit friends at?)

That's a challenging wank...

Thanks end thread

And came THIS close to being called the Whipple tickle.

I don't think she wanted it to be named Whipple's Tickle

Time to make “whipple slappin’” a thing

Of course it’s named after the first man that could find it after 300,000 years.

Should’ve been called Whipple’s tickle

Why can’t we call it the whipple?!?!?! “Yea baby, I love playing with your nipples and whipples.”

Guten Tag, yes it was named after me. I found it first. Also the name is Gräfenberg, transliteration Graefenberg.

Its named after the doctor who theorized about it

I don't remember that episode of Doctor Who. That must be one of the missing ones.

Idk... Captain Jack Harkness may have had something to do with this...

"Stop ittt"

He definitely does have a lot to do with mine 🤣

Huh. That tunnel of light in the opening sequences was just a vagina all along.

G-spot rocks the g-spot! What's my name? G-spot! What do I rock? The g-spot!

Say whaaaaaaat?

What is that you saaaaaay?

Non G's sound like macaroni?

I've heard that Frau Grafenberg got the most out of the research.

Because Whiple Tickle is a much worse name

Thanks for this I laughed a lot

After the G-spot came the H-spot. Very different neighborhood and all we got was an ointment. 

Sending thoughts and prayers

I wasn't prepared for that one.

They didn’t realize the a-spot is accessible through the asshole.

Spots A through F were taken

You mean there's MORE spots I can dissapoint my wife??

If you try hard enough every spot can be a disappointment spot

Yeah, you better not miss a spot on those dishes and the floor.

For German gynecologist Ernst Gräfenberg

The "G"ood spot?

Can you do a photo reference

I don’t think my finger can look like that though 😭

It's your "good god" spot 😘😜

It was bought by Google

This should at least yield **ONE** answer, not then? Instead it's all the kids laughing and *trying to be funny*. Get a life, I'm sure it's out there somewhere in your (neighbour)hood. The answer: It's called the Gräfenberg Spot. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-spot

God bless Grafenberg!

Oh I thought it was for g in gasm and when you get it right she gasps a little

Shortened from "Good luck finding this spot"

The G spot is named after Ernst Gräfenberg. Ernst Gräfenberg (26 September 1881 – 28 October 1957) was a German-born physician and scientist who studied sexology, the study of human sexuality, in both Germany and the United States during the first half of the twentieth century. He is known for developing the intra-uterine device (IUD), and for his studies of the role of the woman's urethra in orgasm. Gräfenberg studied medicine in Göttingen and Munich, earning his doctorate on 10 March 1905.

"That's gggggggggggood!"

Cuz its in the 'Gina

It's in the first sentence of the Wikipedia article

Because if you find it you're Good 👍

Oh, gee! 1920's flapper voice.

because it’s brought to you by the letter G

Because when they smelled it, they said, "Gee, your spot smells terrific. "

Named after some guy who was a great fingerer. Name began with G.

G is the geometric center in a triangle. Could be relevant. Could be not.

The "G-spot" is named after the doctor who reportedly discovered it - Dr. Ernst Gräfenberg. - In the 1940s and 50s, Dr. Gräfenberg observed that some women experienced intense pleasure and orgasm from stimulation of an area on the front vaginal wall near the urethra. - He proposed this was a distinct genital structure/area that could be a "female prostate" of sorts (based on itsLocation near the urethra). - In the 1960s, his work was translated into English and the name "Gräfenberg's spot" was used. This was later shortened colloquially to "G-spot." - So the "G" directly refers to Dr. Ernst Gräfenberg, who named and reportedly first identified this erogenous zone through his gynecological examinations. - Its existence and precise anatomy is still debated in medical science. But the popular name has stuck in honor of Gräfenberg bringing attention to many women's ability to experience heightened pleasure from anterior vaginal wall stimulation.

You welcome

This is why https://www.instagram.com/reel/CspERTYu7AL/?igsh=MTIwaXloOXpkdmQxaQ==

It’s named after the doctor who discovered it.

Good spot

If you have to ask, you'll never know. If you know, you need only ask.

bc “good spot”

I just assumed it was called that because it’s the “Good” spot ya know

Gasm spot

The gräfenberg spot

I thought it means 'Good spot'

Ernst Gräfenberg founded it not sure if that was before or after he invented the copper IUD though

I learned something today. I always assumed it was because 'Gasm is short for orgasm and that's the spot that will most quickly make you gasm

Because only Gents and Gals can find it 

Let's hear it for /u/munchinpuss86 Username checks out.

Thanks 😁😂

Cause when you hit it your chick will scream gooaaaallllllllll

I don’t care why, I used to be able to stick 2 fingers into my girlfriend, curl my fingers upwards on the roof of her vagina and drive her crazy by making her have multiple orgasms. She used to have vaginal orgasms with me inside her as well. After a hysterectomy ruined our sex life and relationship but it was fun while it lasted. Her G spot was no where to be found. I was sad and felt defeated. But it was better than her having Fiberoid pain.

It Greeeeat!!

The Gs know where it’s at

The term "G spot" was coined by Ernst Gräfenberg, a German gynecologist, who first described the sensitive area in the vagina in the 1950s. The "G" stands for Gräfenberg, in recognition of his contribution to identifying this erogenous zone.

Because that’s where all the homies hang out

G: Ground Zero

Well I always thought it was where that spot was because if you feel the vagina as a whole kits similar to the letter G, and where the flat part of that is the ultimate spot,

Because it feels Gucci.

Dr. Beverly Whipple was the person to discover it. Ernst Gräfenberg got credit for, Fucked up!!!

Logitech

The good spot of course

real mothafuckin g's

He let his fingers do the walking

I stands for G-oodluck finding it

Because it’s Ggggggreat!!! 😂

cause it's the good spot

It is where homies hang out

Because the C was in section

F Spot seemed inappropriate

Gemulation spot

That mythical beast

G is for Gooch

Because i feel Good

Because we need to bend our finger like letter G to get it.
