I was probably one of the few people who actually loved the TV show, Lipstick Jungle starring Brooke Shields, Kim Raver, and Lindsay Price. In fact, judging by how quickly it got canceled, I might have been the only one! To me, it was the grown up version of Sex in the City. The ladies in Lipstick Jungle were a bit older, very focused on their careers, and yet dealt with the complexities of balancing their work persona with being wives, moms and lovers.
In one of my favourite episodes, Nico deliberates about getting a collagen injection into her G-spot so that she could increase the pleasure in her sex life. The whole episode centers around her internal debate – is it safe? Will it really work? Does it make me slutty? How do I even find it? (She has to give serious thought to this latter question after the nurse tells her that the doctor prefers it if his patients do their personal “market research” ahead of time so they can tell him exactly where their G-spot is at the time of the procedure!) In the end, the writers she decides that it is too intriguing an option to pass up. The audience sees her in the cab ride home afterward, and every time the cab hits a bump, she gets a wider and wider smile on her face.
Believe it or not, this procedure is actually real. More and more women are visiting doctors who take needles, insert them into the G-spot, and inject collagen. Collagen swelled lips are evidently passé; we have now moved onto our G-spots!!
Once the procedure takes effect (just minutes and supposedly you can have sex 4 hours later!), the G-spot swells to the size of a quarter and grows very sensitive to stimulation. They say that a majority of women report enhanced sexual sensation after the procedure. One press release advertises that you can have the procedure in the morning, and “experience intense multiple orgasms tonight”!
So why isn’t every woman rushing out to get this procedure done? Well, I would assume that getting a vaginal injection is not high on ladies’ priority lists. And then, even if you can suppress the fear factor of having a needle inserted up your hoo-hoo, you will be shelling out a lot of money (anywhere between $1800-$2500) and the effects can wear off in less than 4 months.
In case you need me to do the math for you, that’s over $450 a month (on the cheap end) for multiple orgasms. Now, I am a huge proponent of making an investment into your sex life, but that is a bit much for me – especially when there is a risk of it not working for you. And I didn’t even go looking for on-line stories of the procedure going horribly wrong.
I personally, just couldn’t justify it. If I want to increase feeling and intensity in the G-spot, I would just use G-spot Crème (which happens to be the product of the week…I know, convenient, right?). The crème is cheaper, non-invasive and doesn’t require a doctor or anesthetic. What’s not to love about that?!
Anyway, the point of this post is simply to note the extremes that some women are willing to go to in order to attempt to enhance their sexual experiences. Some ladies are willing to pay a lot of money and have surgical procedures done over and over again to find that elusive sexual nirvana. So, my question, for those brave enough to answer:
what is the most “extreme” thing you have done in an attempt to increase your sexual experience? And…did it work for you?
(keep in mind that everyone’s “extreme” is different. I am not simply looking for salacious stories, I honestly want to know if you have tried things to spice up your sex life.)
