The G Spot is:
A) The ultimate erogenous zone
B) A lucrative con
C) No one knows
D) None of the above
Searching for G is a feature documentary that examines the greatest sexual discovery of the 20th century: The G Spot. Is this every woman’s “magic button” for outrageous orgasms or is it a lucrative con run on an unsuspecting population? No one knows.
While some studies suggest that an overwhelming majority of North American women believe in this “Holy Grail of female sexuality,” research has also shown that somewhere between 5% and 15% of American women has never had an orgasm. A multi-million dollar industry of books, videos, toys and other products has sprung up to help these women locate and connect with their G Spots.
The catch is that science has not endorsed the existence of the G Spot. Most doctors and researchers believe it is an unproven hypothesis at best. At worst, the G Spot represents a fundamental but lucrative misunderstanding about female anatomy. Science offers few answers, as this topic draws neither prestige nor funding. While everyone can agree that we need more information, few are actively seeking it. This void exposes the uncomfortable fact that women’s health and their sexuality remain second-rate subjects of intellectual inquiry.
In the absence of an unequivocal answer, Searching for G turns to a broad array of characters, including, gynecologists, porn stars, feminists, professors, and journalists, as well as experts on masturbation, female sexual response and female ejaculation. All of them are invested one way or another in the idea of the G Spot; these individuals support their opinions with different methods, verbiage and evidence, in the process revealing their own biases.
