Here’s What Sex Looks Like From Inside Your Vagina
There's nothing very sexy about it.
You may have seen that very NSFW viral video from 2016 that shows sex from the inside the vagina that freaked some people out. With one camera on the tip of the penis and another inside the vagina, it was a completely new way to have sex — or at least, to view it.
Before the video — titled “Camera Inside Of The Vagina During Sex In Missionary Position” — was taken off YouTube, it had almost 22 million views. The fact that it was even available on YouTube on the first place angered lots of people who thought it was pornographic. While it’s now only available on porn sites, it does seem like it was done from a medical, educational perspective. There's truly nothing very sexy about it. In fact, I watched it (so you didn’t have to) and I would call it the least sexy sex I've ever seen, and I’ve had sandy beach sex before.
No matter what you think of the video's appropriateness, it's definitely fascinating to see this perspective of a penis inside a vagina. When I watched it with my roommate, we both had our jaws on the floor. Despite having had lots of sex and being very familiar with how both a penis and a vagina look, seeing it from the point of view of the uterus is just ... unbelievable.
Here’s a GIF from the video to give you an idea.
Don't think you can handle the video? Here are some things you should know about how sex looks from the inside.
1. Seeing A Penis Enter A Vagina Is Overwhelming
Seriously, my experience was that I was living in a fishbowl and a penis wouldn't stop poking at me. Leave me alone, penis.
2. And His Pubic Bone Is Basically High-Fiving The Clitoris
The video explains that the missionary position is thought to be good for female orgasm because of the clitoral and G-spot stimulation. And the little camera shows the public bone hitting the clit over and over when his penis is inside the vagina, like they're high-fiving. I have to say, the clitoris looks pretty happy.
3. The Head Of The Penis Is Highly Sensitive, But It Legit Looks Like A Mushroom
I know it's been described as a mushroom head before, but somehow, seeing just the head attack you on repeat really brings the whole mushroom look home. Not a sexy fungus.
4. Erect Nipples Look Like Pimple Mountains Up Close
It's not just the guy that looks different up close. I love nipples — a woman’s nipples are pretty much my favorite thing on the planet — but for some reason, from the view of the camera, the little bumpy bits of the nipple look out of control.
5. Women’s Vaginas Are Really Ridge-y
If you've ever masturbated or had sex with a woman, you've probably felt the ridges inside, especially around the G-spot. But when you see them from the inside, you can totally see just how uneven we are.
6. They Don't Warn You About Semen Coming At You, But It Is Terrifying
OK, so maybe they're starting to talk about semen, but all of a sudden, it's shooting at you like gloopy, angry silly string, and you can't escape. Seriously. That is the image that will haunt my dreams.
