This video is so great in so many ways. From the actual information to the structure. This is how sex education should be. You guys did an amazing job. Well done Hannah and Team!
Hearing that it might prevent UTI is kinda validating. I'm immunodeficient and am a massive squirter. I recently thought maybe the two were connected and it was made to help me out.
I was so thrilled to see Billy as a guest in this video and found his insights super interesting! As a trans person you usually don't get that kind of representation so it was really refreshing to hear his perspective - and the experience can be so universally applied to any person with a vulva. Thank you Hannah for using your platform in this way. It should be standard, it is not - so it really means a lot!!! ⭐
More than 50 years ago my late wife and I had no idea that squirting existed and when it occasionally happened my wife was very embarrassed, but also began to realize that it usually happened during really intense orgasms but only during "traditional missionary" sex, never in other positions. We became open enough with each other that we discussed it and discovered that it turned me on more when it happened, and we actually prepared for it by using a rubber sheet and soft towel even though it didn't happen that often.
i've always experienced some kind of envy/jealousy of friends who say they can squirt, like they're achieving some kind of sexual mission or objective that I've never gotten. but this video made me feel so much better about myself, i really liked that you mentioned that the oldest recorded person who started squirting was at 60! maybe it'll happen one day for me, but for now I'm not gonna put pressure on myself. thanks for this video hannah!
Never has happened to my knowledge and I've always been too dry. Hannah teaches us so much ...maybe a doctor could help now that the subject is opened up.
I am 30 years old and married for 8 of those. This is the first time I’ve had any kind of positive talk about squirt. While I am privileged enough to have a partner that understands, that was not the case for my teenage years. THIS SHOULD BE TOUGHT!
I would argue that in the 'is squirt pee' debate, the people who passionately argue it isn't are being far less sex positive than they think they are. There's plenty of evidence that most of the composition is urine. Far more than trace amounts as found in penile ejaculate - I don't think that's a particularly good comparison. Yes, there's extra stuff added (and I would argue the context makes it socially different beyond the chemistry) but the desperation with which people want to argue this point is rooted in the idea that if squirt is pee then that's bad and shameful. Instead of trying to prove how much it isn't pee, we could just embrace the idea that if it is (mostly), so what? It's a normal bodily function that lots of people do and enjoy that doesn't harm anyone so it doesn't really matter either way.
so you read things and you know more than the people who experience it and deal with the fluid day in and day out? You are the epitomy of everything that is wrong with this conversation and should do better. There are unexplained aspects on both sides of this discussion. To disparage anyone that doesn't like water sports but squirts and enjoys it is appalling.
I would offer the suggestion, that for those who find that a towel (Or a number of towels) isn't enough, that you can get Puppy Pads, the kind of pads you get for toilet training puppies. The better ones have waterproof backing and very absorbent tops, and can protect your bedding very well in themselves 😉 My partner and myself swear by them 😁
Yes! These are amazing, and super cheap. I think I got a pack of 100 for £12. I also highly reccomend fluffy, waterproof dog blankets which are much cheaper than proper 'sex blankets'.
As if I just clicked on this video, not realising my sound was all the way up, for Hannah to say SQUIRTING really loudly whilst my parents were standing next to me 🙃🙃
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your inclusive language when it comes to talking about parts such as vulvas/vaginas. As an AFAB non-binary person I frequently come across people who do not use this kid of inclusive language and its a very welcome change.
more about "male squirt": For me it happens with continued stimulation to the glans, especially post-orgasm. It can feel uncomfortable to the point of painful but at the same time pleasurable, a bit like being tickled, and also like the feeling of needing to urinate. At the point of "squirting" (what I assume to be) urine will erupt from the urethra. Unlike peeing normally, it squirts out in one or several bursts and it happens without conscious effort. The sensation is similar to an orgasm though less intense and doesn't have the waves of pleasure. It's also comparable to the relief you get from peeing when you're really desperate. Continued stimulation of the glans during the squirt can result in regular peeing.
This is a topic I've always been fascinated by. I think a lot of the apparent contradictions in the scientific literature are easily explained by different studies looking for different things. I like to use the analogy of squash/cordial. If I gave you a glass of squash and told you to test it for sugar and compare that result to a glass of plain water, you might report 'this is totally different to water'. If I asked you to measure the H2O content of the same two glasses and compare those results you might report 'these are almost exactly the same!' I think the argument about the average bladder size being smaller than the person with a world record doesn't really hold up because averages don't capture the natural variation within the human population. There are people with bladder capacities beyond 2 litres. Also, I've never heard a viable alternative for where large volumes of squirt could be coming from. There are only two possibilities: the fluid is stored in a reservoir separate to the bladder, with a capacity at least large enough to account for the volumes squirted by some people within a matter of seconds. Clearly we would have detected that. Or: the fluid is produced 'on demand' from the blood, which would require a ridiculous blood supply and faster filtration than any known structure in the body. Again, we would have found this if it existed. I find it a lot easier to believe that the fluid which comes out of the urethra comes from the big fluid reservoir at the other end of the urethra.. I'm glad you highlighted the most important point of all of this though which is 'does it matter'? I feel really sad to think that a lot of people are really invested in squirt not being (mostly) pee because if it turns out that it is, they think it will somehow invalidate a part of thier sexuality that they've come to love. To me it seems obvious that squirting is a pretty natural and fun part of the human sexual response and I'm really excited for a future where we accept and understand it better. Personal side theory of mine: there's a phenomenom called immersion diuresis where being in water makes you need to pee. This is believed to be because the mammalian diving reflex causes vasoconstriction to conserve oxygen, which raises your blood pressure and causes your kidneys to output more urine. I believe there could be some similar effect which is part of human sexual arousal which causes us to need to pee more, and which would explain why so many people report squirt being very dilute (although from my personal experience this is definitely not always the case!). It ties quite nicely into what you said about a possible protective effect against UTIs.
As a 33 year old for whom this topic has become relevant (out of the blue!) in the past 6 months, I SO appreciate this video. Sending it to my partners- thank you for the resource!
It's unfortunate that there's so much stigma around squirting. As someone who squirts a lot, my husband just grabs a towel or shirt nearby and would never make me feel bad about it, and I wish this was the norm.
Good job, Hannah. The information you presented messhes well with that of medical professional experts Including, to what degree, "squirt" is or is not pee. You should feel quite proud of yourself for presenting the information in a professional, educational, and even entertaining way.
I was told by a sexual partner once that I seemed like I could be a "squirter" because of how many times I said I needed to pee, lol, honestly I had no idea where this person was coming with that. To this date, I have only orgasmed with someone I had/have been in a longterm relationship with, never with anyone casual, and I have never "squirted" when having sex in those relationships. I personally haven't read much on the subject but the little academic research I have read makes me still think that it's urine, because it all comes from the urethra and not from the vagina area, like maybe it is a sexual secretion maybe because the chemical makeup isn't exactly the same as urine, but, it's almost the same. From what I understand even to this day scientists still haven't come to a consensus on if this is a thing or not.
I was the 3rd husband of my 3rd wife. She had never squirted with any prior partners or solo. During our 2nd time having sex she squirted...a lot...during her 2nd orgasm. She was quite shocked and apologetic but I assured her that it was okay (I had previously seen it in adult videos) so it was not as much a shock to me...just a new experience. Over the years of our relationship we learned that she could do it a little before but mostly during and/or just after her orgasms. Also that the liquid was not urine. It was colorless & odorless and was not bitter but actually had a pleasant taste. There would also be copious amounts of it necessitating 2 to 3 quarter-folded towels.
"To squirt or not to squirt; that is the question." me, trying to continue the soliloquy: Whether 'tis nobler... whether 'tis nobler in the puss to... suffer?... hmm.
It's definetly not the same thing but both can happen together. They smell and look very different if you let out enough to tell. Personally I've only had a handful of experiences and never the same vibe feeling or amount or method. Both relaxing and focusing has stopped it for me so now I don't stress about it and if it happens it happens. A difficulty has been convincing a partner that you're still satisfied without a visible result shown and that's where conversations and self esteem need work on.
There is a lot of talk about trying to squirt, even in this video. I would be more interested in questions like 'How to prevent squirting while still being relaxed and having a good time?'. Most of the time, I don't really want it to happen so I stop things or try to tense to stop it happening but that isn't much fun. I don't feel any pleasure with squirting and usually there is quite a large volume but also can't control it. Anyone else like this? Any tips on how to not squirt when you can't really control it?
I have some level of control over whether or not my ‘squirt’ actually leaves my body. If I engage my pelvic floor in the right way at the right time, I can prevent it from flowing outwards from my urethra and can actually feel it flow backwards and into my bladder. (Side-note: I’m autistic and I think that my sensitivity to sensation is part of why I can distinguish this where others may not often be able to.) This suggests to me that maybe the ‘source’ of the liquid is somewhere between the urethral opening and the bladder, because it doesn’t feel like it’s returning to the source when I hold it in as it would if the source was the bladder itself, it feels like it’s taking one of two potential paths like a T-shaped intersection. I’ve always been so curious about this type of ejaculation since I first experienced it at 19, and now it’s happening even more frequently (almost every time now) I really hope to see more accurate, detailed, statistically significant research! Would even participate myself if given the opportunity!
the only times I've squirted were when a session went on for WAY too long; honestly felt like my body was saying "get away from me." each time, the partner was quite impressed with himself, and definitely equated it with his prowess. not just squirting, but any time a partner has that mentality of 'I can make you...,' that is a pretty good indication that they can't
i did it for the first time during masturbation when i was about 17/18. i genuinely thought i'd peed myself, and i remember smelling the fluid to check. when i figured out that what had happened was squirting, i felt like i had a secret, and was far too embarrassed to tell anyone about it. i was super shocked when i finally told my next long-term partner about it (after having been worried it would happen for the first however long of our sexual relationship). he was super turned on by the idea, was like "why didn't you tell me sooner?!" and instantly took it as a personal quest to make it happen. now it's something i'm pretty neutral about, aside from i always making sure to put a bath matt down during masturbation (would recommend bath matts as they're cheap, easily accessible, comfy, and generally lined at the bottom unlike towels). i really wish we learnt more about squirting and the stigma was dispelled because i definitely could've done without the anxiety around it between finding out i could do it and finding out that it's totally normal and something that lots of people fetishise.
Interesting. I read the Vagina Bible by Jennifer Gunter and I remember in that book she emphatically talked about that there is no evidence of where such a fluid could come from and that almost all squirting is fake or pee or something like that. I've been very confused by squirting as a concept ever since, since it does seem like a lot of people can do it contrary to the implications on that book. This video has helped some.
And Jennifer Gunter is right? Women do NOT squirt! Can you imagine your partner's reaction if you urinated on them? There is no organ that makes it possible for a woman to squirt. I wish they would just drop this topic because it is fake.
@@valleygirlgg your sexual ignorance should not equate to you being unpleasant and derogatory. it is obvious both you and Gunter know nothing about this as you have not experienced it and are unable to open your minds.
Squirting contains mostly Urine, it contains a small amount of fluid from the skene glands, but it does mostly contain urine Do you think the skene glands contain 1000ml of fluid? I think this is important because many men will try and force their partner to squirt because they view it the same as ejaculation, when its not. If you do it, and enjoy it great but its not a "female ejaculate" And actually if you feel your about to pee, theres still a high chance you just need to pee
Am I the only one who put her hand up when Hannah did on her squirting? Also your section about Porn - I'm an webcam broadcaster, I've been judged so many times because I don't
It's so crazy that I started squirting when i was like 23 after like 5 years of having an active sex life... now I'm 26 and it happens almost all the time I have sex (if the sex is good haha). The first time it happened I was veryyy confused cause it had never happened before. And yeah I really can't control when it happens or when it doesn't... it just happens, it's kind of a mystery to me! I like it but it's just kind of inconvenient having to clean my sheets all the time, that's why I prefer to have sex in my own bed 🙃
I don't feel the example of the world record setting squirt volume vs the average bladder size is a good argument for it not coming from the bladder. People who set world records to do with their bodies rarely have average bodies, and you didn't suggest anywhere else that would be holding 1.3 litres of fluid. Someone being able to squirt a lot doesn't prove it didn't come from the bladder, nor does it prove it only came from paraurethral glands. There's no research to suggest those would be able to hold/produce any volume that isn't at least an order of magnitude or two less than the amount you're talking about here (and I agree with you that we do need more research, but that's a huge thing to have missed). Have a look at a full1 litre bottle to see just how much that is, it's not an amount any other body part in that area can hold. That's far, far more than the other glands around the reproductive system can produce in that short of a time. Given a long time even a small gland could produce that much, but with the volume and speed squirt can come out at, it cant be being produced as it's being squirted, which means it has to be stored somewhere. I'm not saying paraurethral glands aren't involved, they pretty much certainly are, but nothing you've suggested/put forwards discounts the notion that a large part of it is urine. I do agree that it doesn't really matter that much at the end of the day though. I do also disagree with 7 people being too few. Whilst more would obviously be better, this is a physical process we're talking about, it's not like each woman would be producing it in a different way. You don't need more than 7 men to find where male ejaculate comes from for example.
Hi Hannah, I always absolutely love your content, and being on a journey to learn more, I was wondering if you could do a video talking about your favourite books on/about sex, relationships and bodies. I know you have done videos on your fav. books of a specific year but all of those years combined is just a lot 😅
I am 42 and haven’t ever squirted. I kinda wish I could but with stipulations and I’m sure that’s not how it works. I would prefer it to only be enough to know it just happened without it being something that I have to prepare for ahead of time as in water proof pads or something. Don’t we all🤷🏼♀️!!
Did not know cis men could squirt. I had found this mentioned in a manga I read, however, I thought it was just random porn fantasy stuff. Now, I am super curious and have some googling to do. Also, way more excited at the prospect of trying to add squirting into things I want to try for during sex, since I used to get UTIs a bit, I would love to add to the prevention of getting them since just going to the bathroom doesn't always work.
I genuinely appreciated this video. I have definitely felt the pressure to squirt and even though I can (at times! it depends on my hydration, feeling at ease..etc) I have attributed me not squirting as being deficient in bed. It has created some shame and insecurity for me that I am not enough.
I’ve never had an orgasm and am low-key afraid that I will squirt if I do. Because I always need to pee after sex (like even if I peed before sex). So my (completely unscientific) theory is my bladder is triggered to fill when I’m turned on, for whatever reason that is. Also it works vice-versa like when I need to pee I’ll randomly get turned on by the sensation. So it’s kinda linked to me. But I don’t think it’s the same thing as pee, or at least not exactly. It just comes from the same place
I generally dislike sexual fluids and fluids in general. Super inconvenient like I don’t want to have to prepare my bed for sex because I want it to feel less planned and also I feel like if I do prepare for sex then I have to go ahead with it or at least it’s more of an event if I decide to not have sex in the end, which is frustrating. So it’s partially a practical reason and partially because I’ve always been pressured away from it since people think it’s “gross”
It’s very normal to have to pee after sex. And you are even encouraged to do so to prevent UTIs which are more common in people with vulvas because of our anatomy. In my experience that feeling of having to pee comes mostly after penetrative sex. But really I go pee every time after sex even if I went to the bathroom before and even after I squirted :)
When the bladder is full, there is a pressure on the clitoris, that's the connection. Also when your bladder is empty before sex it can be filled during sex with squirting liquid, studies have showed. And of course peeing after sex prevents any infection.
Loved this video, because there is so poor information about this topic and half of it is also wrong. Never heard of men squirting, you can always learn new things about sex. But still there is one question: There seem to be two different liquids. The squirting liquid (transparent and nearly odourless) and a small amount of white, viscous liquid (so called 'female ejaculation'). What is it?
Thank you for this video. I think this video managed to deconstruct so much of my shame somehow??? Everything is less scary when you understand it. And now that I think about it - so what if it is piss??
You know that some things can be trans exclusionary not by or because of prejudice. but simply because of biological facts. Which makes nothing wrong with that fact. There will be nuanced or niche groups of individuals that are always excluded in conversations otherwise we would all be identical in every way which would suck and is the whole purpose behind trans people talking out is to be recognized as the individuals they are. Like everyone else.
I was amazed when I discovered I could squirt. When having sex I need to put down so many towels but that gives me security that the bed won't get wet and I can just relax and enjoy it.
Scientifically I would argue that it does matter if the fluid is urine or not. Even though the studies are small and need to be expanded on, they do support that it is mostly urine with a few specific "squirt chemicals" present in low doses. The argument that the amount of fluid, which the world record lady produced is too large to be held in the bladder is also weak. If over a litre of fluid were to be stored in the paraurethral glands, they would be noticeably swollen and palpable from the outside. A distended bladder is more likely to be where the fluid is stored. Of course the stigma surrounding squirting and sexual fluids needs to be eliminated, but wanting squirting fluid to be some kind of magical compound when it is not, is also harmful.
When I first squirted I was like omg this is so cool, I can squirt, but now it’s just so frustrating because it happens every time I orgasm and like it’s always *a lot* and I’m not gonna lie it was just another thing that made me feel like I was broken in some way, so thank you for this video, it being broken down and talked about like it’s a shared experience between so many people makes me feel a lot less insecure about it :) (I’m also gonna look into waterproof blankets because omg I thought my only choice were those waterproof sheets you had as a kid in case you wet the bed)
Billy's voice sounds so familiar... It feels like I've heard someone who sounds similar in a cartoon of all things. Gods, this is gonna bother me all night now
Lol I didn't know it's apparently a whole porn thing! I think I can feel a lot less embarrassed about it happening now haha Thank you for always being so informative!
Note: A lot of the time I have watched porn with squirting, it is actually just the actress urinating. At least in my experience with one partner who squirted, then is a distinct difference in colour, smell, and volume/duration of the fluid.
Makes sense, I didn't realize that Merle updated his favorite way to make her explode in pure bliss, it’s amazingly satisfying. Although what he suggested before was fairly good, it doesn’t even compare, I did it go’ogling Merle Winestol's Secret, and she just can’t have enough now.
i made myself squirt recently and it was a BIG SHOCK lmaooo didnt know i could do it myself! i knew i could do it because its happened in relationships but not by myself
I used to be able to do this with my last partner at the beginning of our relationship but it stopped happening at one point and hasn’t happened again and I have no idea why
Thank you so much for making this video! I've always wondered about squirting. I'm a virgin but use sex toys and I always squirt and always wondered if it was just pee
Also there is a Netflix show that is helpful in terms of sex stuff where Cara Devalagn(actress who played Enchantress/June Moon in Suicide Squad) as the host.
I often squirt (probably like 90% of the time with penetration) and luckily my husband loves it 😂 for me though, it takes 2 or 3 times in a session for me to orgasm though which my husband definitely forgets and that can be v frustrating. All the info we've heard around squirting says that it's an orgasm and it blooming well isn't!
This video is so great in so many ways. From the actual information to the structure. This is how sex education should be. You guys did an amazing job. Well done Hannah and Team!

I was so excited to hear Kate's name then Billy also showed up! You should totally have them on the podcast!
I really appreciate your educational videos🔥 I love the scientifically accurate information you provide, it's really enlightening!
I was the 3rd husband of my 3rd wife. She had never squirted with any prior partners or solo. During our 2nd time having sex she squirted...a lot...during her 2nd orgasm.
She was quite shocked and apologetic but I assured her that it was okay (I had previously seen it in adult videos) so it was not as much a shock to me...just a new experience.
Over the years of our relationship we learned that she could do it a little before but mostly during and/or just after her orgasms. Also that the liquid was not urine.
It was colorless & odorless and was not bitter but actually had a pleasant taste. There would also be copious amounts of it necessitating 2 to 3 quarter-folded towels.
What a great video and very informative. You probs my did more research on this with your survey than anyone else has before
"To squirt or not to squirt; that is the question."
me, trying to continue the soliloquy: Whether 'tis nobler... whether 'tis nobler in the puss to... suffer?... hmm.
😂😂
Thank you for this! I’m showing my homies this💪
It's definetly not the same thing but both can happen together. They smell and look very different if you let out enough to tell. Personally I've only had a handful of experiences and never the same vibe feeling or amount or method. Both relaxing and focusing has stopped it for me so now I don't stress about it and if it happens it happens. A difficulty has been convincing a partner that you're still satisfied without a visible result shown and that's where conversations and self esteem need work on.
Love your channel, its a really informative safe space! On another note, are you taking dating applications? 👀🤣
There is a lot of talk about trying to squirt, even in this video. I would be more interested in questions like 'How to prevent squirting while still being relaxed and having a good time?'. Most of the time, I don't really want it to happen so I stop things or try to tense to stop it happening but that isn't much fun. I don't feel any pleasure with squirting and usually there is quite a large volume but also can't control it. Anyone else like this? Any tips on how to not squirt when you can't really control it?
I have some level of control over whether or not my ‘squirt’ actually leaves my body. If I engage my pelvic floor in the right way at the right time, I can prevent it from flowing outwards from my urethra and can actually feel it flow backwards and into my bladder. (Side-note: I’m autistic and I think that my sensitivity to sensation is part of why I can distinguish this where others may not often be able to.) This suggests to me that maybe the ‘source’ of the liquid is somewhere between the urethral opening and the bladder, because it doesn’t feel like it’s returning to the source when I hold it in as it would if the source was the bladder itself, it feels like it’s taking one of two potential paths like a T-shaped intersection.
I’ve always been so curious about this type of ejaculation since I first experienced it at 19, and now it’s happening even more frequently (almost every time now) I really hope to see more accurate, detailed, statistically significant research! Would even participate myself if given the opportunity!
the only times I've squirted were when a session went on for WAY too long; honestly felt like my body was saying "get away from me." each time, the partner was quite impressed with himself, and definitely equated it with his prowess. not just squirting, but any time a partner has that mentality of 'I can make you...,' that is a pretty good indication that they can't
i did it for the first time during masturbation when i was about 17/18. i genuinely thought i'd peed myself, and i remember smelling the fluid to check. when i figured out that what had happened was squirting, i felt like i had a secret, and was far too embarrassed to tell anyone about it. i was super shocked when i finally told my next long-term partner about it (after having been worried it would happen for the first however long of our sexual relationship). he was super turned on by the idea, was like "why didn't you tell me sooner?!" and instantly took it as a personal quest to make it happen. now it's something i'm pretty neutral about, aside from i always making sure to put a bath matt down during masturbation (would recommend bath matts as they're cheap, easily accessible, comfy, and generally lined at the bottom unlike towels). i really wish we learnt more about squirting and the stigma was dispelled because i definitely could've done without the anxiety around it between finding out i could do it and finding out that it's totally normal and something that lots of people fetishise.
I really love these kind of videos! Leaving a comment in the hope it'll get recommended more to other people ❤
Interesting. I read the Vagina Bible by Jennifer Gunter and I remember in that book she emphatically talked about that there is no evidence of where such a fluid could come from and that almost all squirting is fake or pee or something like that. I've been very confused by squirting as a concept ever since, since it does seem like a lot of people can do it contrary to the implications on that book. This video has helped some.
And Jennifer Gunter is right? Women do NOT squirt! Can you imagine your partner's reaction if you urinated on them? There is no organ that makes it possible for a woman to squirt. I wish they would just drop this topic because it is fake.
@@valleygirlgg your sexual ignorance should not equate to you being unpleasant and derogatory. it is obvious both you and Gunter know nothing about this as you have not experienced it and are unable to open your minds.
@@valleygirlgg5:13 ??????? Squirting isn't urinating... Female people DO squirt.
"Get down and squirty" is yet another saying from you I want to put on my t-shirt. Love you, Hannah. 💕
Squirting contains mostly Urine, it contains a small amount of fluid from the skene glands, but it does mostly contain urine
Do you think the skene glands contain 1000ml of fluid?
I think this is important because many men will try and force their partner to squirt because they view it the same as ejaculation, when its not. If you do it, and enjoy it great but its not a "female ejaculate"
And actually if you feel your about to pee, theres still a high chance you just need to pee
Am I the only one who put her hand up when Hannah did on her squirting?
Also your section about Porn - I'm an webcam broadcaster, I've been judged so many times because I don't
my waterproof blanket is one of the best purchases i've ever made 💦
I'd love to see you use said purchase... 😉
It's so crazy that I started squirting when i was like 23 after like 5 years of having an active sex life... now I'm 26 and it happens almost all the time I have sex (if the sex is good haha). The first time it happened I was veryyy confused cause it had never happened before. And yeah I really can't control when it happens or when it doesn't... it just happens, it's kind of a mystery to me! I like it but it's just kind of inconvenient having to clean my sheets all the time, that's why I prefer to have sex in my own bed 🙃
Facts
Billy is right! The Njoy Pure Wand is it.
I just love you and your Channel so much 💗 thank you for your amazing work!
I don't feel the example of the world record setting squirt volume vs the average bladder size is a good argument for it not coming from the bladder. People who set world records to do with their bodies rarely have average bodies, and you didn't suggest anywhere else that would be holding 1.3 litres of fluid. Someone being able to squirt a lot doesn't prove it didn't come from the bladder, nor does it prove it only came from paraurethral glands. There's no research to suggest those would be able to hold/produce any volume that isn't at least an order of magnitude or two less than the amount you're talking about here (and I agree with you that we do need more research, but that's a huge thing to have missed).
Have a look at a full1 litre bottle to see just how much that is, it's not an amount any other body part in that area can hold. That's far, far more than the other glands around the reproductive system can produce in that short of a time. Given a long time even a small gland could produce that much, but with the volume and speed squirt can come out at, it cant be being produced as it's being squirted, which means it has to be stored somewhere.
I'm not saying paraurethral glands aren't involved, they pretty much certainly are, but nothing you've suggested/put forwards discounts the notion that a large part of it is urine. I do agree that it doesn't really matter that much at the end of the day though.
I do also disagree with 7 people being too few. Whilst more would obviously be better, this is a physical process we're talking about, it's not like each woman would be producing it in a different way. You don't need more than 7 men to find where male ejaculate comes from for example.
Hi Hannah, I always absolutely love your content, and being on a journey to learn more, I was wondering if you could do a video talking about your favourite books on/about sex, relationships and bodies. I know you have done videos on your fav. books of a specific year but all of those years combined is just a lot 😅
been waiting for this!
Thanks for making the video, and what a great interview at teh end!
This dude Billy is hilarious 😂
I am 42 and haven’t ever squirted. I kinda wish I could but with stipulations and I’m sure that’s not how it works. I would prefer it to only be enough to know it just happened without it being something that I have to prepare for ahead of time as in water proof pads or something. Don’t we all🤷🏼♀️!!
Time stamp 5:13 look for comma "...we need more sex research, people" is different from "... we need more sex research people"
Did not know cis men could squirt. I had found this mentioned in a manga I read, however, I thought it was just random porn fantasy stuff. Now, I am super curious and have some googling to do.
Also, way more excited at the prospect of trying to add squirting into things I want to try for during sex, since I used to get UTIs a bit, I would love to add to the prevention of getting them since just going to the bathroom doesn't always work.
. . . When did simple 'fun' get so complicated
Leaving a comment for the algorithm
I do go "ew, piss," when I think about sperm. Everything else, I agree.
okay unrelated but billy sounds like that tiktok voice filter omg
Adult incontinence pads have changed the game, super absorbent and alot cheaper then those fancy blankets
I genuinely appreciated this video. I have definitely felt the pressure to squirt and even though I can (at times! it depends on my hydration, feeling at ease..etc) I have attributed me not squirting as being deficient in bed. It has created some shame and insecurity for me that I am not enough.
I’ve never had an orgasm and am low-key afraid that I will squirt if I do. Because I always need to pee after sex (like even if I peed before sex). So my (completely unscientific) theory is my bladder is triggered to fill when I’m turned on, for whatever reason that is. Also it works vice-versa like when I need to pee I’ll randomly get turned on by the sensation. So it’s kinda linked to me. But I don’t think it’s the same thing as pee, or at least not exactly. It just comes from the same place
I generally dislike sexual fluids and fluids in general. Super inconvenient like I don’t want to have to prepare my bed for sex because I want it to feel less planned and also I feel like if I do prepare for sex then I have to go ahead with it or at least it’s more of an event if I decide to not have sex in the end, which is frustrating. So it’s partially a practical reason and partially because I’ve always been pressured away from it since people think it’s “gross”
I'm pretty sure all women's bladder fill up when we're horny/have sex 😊
It’s very normal to have to pee after sex. And you are even encouraged to do so to prevent UTIs which are more common in people with vulvas because of our anatomy. In my experience that feeling of having to pee comes mostly after penetrative sex. But really I go pee every time after sex even if I went to the bathroom before and even after I squirted :)
When the bladder is full, there is a pressure on the clitoris, that's the connection. Also when your bladder is empty before sex it can be filled during sex with squirting liquid, studies have showed. And of course peeing after sex prevents any infection.
People should be more open about sex. Thank you for sharing
Loved this video, because there is so poor information about this topic and half of it is also wrong.
Never heard of men squirting, you can always learn new things about sex.
But still there is one question: There seem to be two different liquids. The squirting liquid (transparent and nearly odourless) and a small amount of white, viscous liquid (so called 'female ejaculation'). What is it?
What is the name of the toy and where can I get it?!
The thing I find increadible is, that there is a world record.
Thank you for this video. I think this video managed to deconstruct so much of my shame somehow??? Everything is less scary when you understand it. And now that I think about it - so what if it is piss??
You know that some things can be trans exclusionary not by or because of prejudice. but simply because of biological facts. Which makes nothing wrong with that fact. There will be nuanced or niche groups of individuals that are always excluded in conversations otherwise we would all be identical in every way which would suck and is the whole purpose behind trans people talking out is to be recognized as the individuals they are. Like everyone else.
Thank you for explaining better
OMG, thank you for this video.
Lovely videoo
Tantric sex is great for squirting.. The key is to relax and not feel ashamed or worried about squirting.
I was amazed when I discovered I could squirt. When having sex I need to put down so many towels but that gives me security that the bed won't get wet and I can just relax and enjoy it.
This is fantastic ❤️ TY 😊
I don't squirt or havent yet at least and dont really get how it works. I thought it was much rarer..so learned something new
The experience is mind blowing
Scientifically I would argue that it does matter if the fluid is urine or not. Even though the studies are small and need to be expanded on, they do support that it is mostly urine with a few specific "squirt chemicals" present in low doses. The argument that the amount of fluid, which the world record lady produced is too large to be held in the bladder is also weak. If over a litre of fluid were to be stored in the paraurethral glands, they would be noticeably swollen and palpable from the outside. A distended bladder is more likely to be where the fluid is stored.
Of course the stigma surrounding squirting and sexual fluids needs to be eliminated, but wanting squirting fluid to be some kind of magical compound when it is not, is also harmful.
When I first squirted I was like omg this is so cool, I can squirt, but now it’s just so frustrating because it happens every time I orgasm and like it’s always *a lot* and I’m not gonna lie it was just another thing that made me feel like I was broken in some way, so thank you for this video, it being broken down and talked about like it’s a shared experience between so many people makes me feel a lot less insecure about it :)
(I’m also gonna look into waterproof blankets because omg I thought my only choice were those waterproof sheets you had as a kid in case you wet the bed)
Billy's voice sounds so familiar... It feels like I've heard someone who sounds similar in a cartoon of all things. Gods, this is gonna bother me all night now
I thought he reminded me of the person who voices Extra History, which is animated..
Lol I didn't know it's apparently a whole porn thing! I think I can feel a lot less embarrassed about it happening now haha
Thank you for always being so informative!
Note: A lot of the time I have watched porn with squirting, it is actually just the actress urinating. At least in my experience with one partner who squirted, then is a distinct difference in colour, smell, and volume/duration of the fluid.
It's Pee Lite™️.
Makes sense, I didn't realize that Merle updated his favorite way to make her explode in pure bliss, it’s amazingly satisfying. Although what he suggested before was fairly good, it doesn’t even compare, I did it go’ogling Merle Winestol's Secret, and she just can’t have enough now.
Very informative. It's too bad that most guys, yes I said it, most guys, think squirt is pee and certain porn does give that inference.
i made myself squirt recently and it was a BIG SHOCK lmaooo didnt know i could do it myself! i knew i could do it because its happened in relationships but not by myself
I used to be able to do this with my last partner at the beginning of our relationship but it stopped happening at one point and hasn’t happened again and I have no idea why

Take a shot every time Hannah says squirt.
Amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩
18:35 so based lol
Good to know
I agree you have to stay hydrated if you want to squirt . I love making puddles 💦
Thank you so much for making this video! I've always wondered about squirting. I'm a virgin but use sex toys and I always squirt and always wondered if it was just pee
Squirting should be mandated by law! 😂
21th century and we dont know much about sex and affraid to talk about our sexuality. Sad...
My ex wife did alot I never made her feel bad ❤
Another thing that women's bodies can do that I had not heard of 😅
I think it’s awesome a womans body is amazing and if you like it fantastic
Dman your making me miss my ex hahaha
Interesting...
I am "treated" with an implant band. Surprise! It did n't work. I am always have protection.
💖
Just use a bath towel to lessen the soaking of the sheets.
Also there is a Netflix show that is helpful in terms of sex stuff where Cara Devalagn(actress who played Enchantress/June Moon in Suicide Squad) as the host.
I want to see what it tasts like .
There was a rally in my town and it was about banning sex education in schools how do you feel about this?
I often squirt (probably like 90% of the time with penetration) and luckily my husband loves it 😂 for me though, it takes 2 or 3 times in a session for me to orgasm though which my husband definitely forgets and that can be v frustrating. All the info we've heard around squirting says that it's an orgasm and it blooming well isn't!
i think drink more water
squirting more too
hey!
