Sigmund Freud’s theory of the unconscious mind had at its heart the libido – a powerful psychological sexual motor controlling almost everything we do.
But, according to The Sex Researchers on Channel 4, his close friend, Marie Bonapart, pursued a more physical approach. She wanted to move her clitoris so she could enjoy sex more.
Even though her husband Prince George of Greece was a homosexual and clearly wasn’t the best person to give her the best experience, she was convinced that her clitoris was too far away from her vagina.
To prove her theory, she interviewed 243 women about their sex lives and her main question concerned the relative positions of their clitoris to their vagina.
She called those women whose clitoris was within an inch of the vagina paraclitoridiens or females of the nearby clitoris and those with a distant clitoris were teleclitoridiens.
In 1924 she persuaded Viennese surgeon Josef Halborn to perform the first clitoral relocation. Sadly, even after a second attempt to reposition it, she still couldn’t reach orgasm.
However, she was a woman ahead of her time because recent studies have confirmed her theory that if your clitoris is more than an inch from the top of your vagina, you will struggle to reach orgasm through penetration alone.
Fortunately for me, Ruf is able to confirm the measurement – not that I needed any convincing since my own experience had already given me more than enough evidence…
I have never achieved orgasm from penetration alone, come damn close mind you where all I needed was a flick of my clit and I was done, having said that, I don’t think I will relocate my clitty, I am not sure it has ever expressed an interest in moving to a different part of the pussy neighbourhood

Ps…Interesting stuff about MP…I have already learnt something today and it is only 8.30am, thank you
Hey Molly, I do my best to be a bit more than just rumpy pumpy :)
I guess my girl’s must be in reasonable enough proximity because penetration orgasms are the norm for her, but they weren’t with my ex. Hmm, that may explain a few things.
I would think you’d want to move it somewhere more convenient. Say, in that notch between your thumb and forefinger. Gives “twiddling your thumbs” a much more meaningful phrase!
MrW, I think more women should be aware of this measurement. As you say, it gives an explanation for why it just doesn’t happen for some ladies
PMSL @ Os! Excellent strategy :)
I wonder if this makes sense for me…
but if it’s true, it really suggests that all vaginal orgasms are actually clitoral orgasms, doesn’t it, if they don’t happen if the clit’s not involved? Hmm?
Jo, To my mind, there are several sensitive stimulation points both vaginally and clitorally and so long as I get an orgasm, Im not going to start arguing the toss about which one is responsible :)
I would not want to move my clitoris. Even though, I have yet to achieve an orgasm from vaginal penetration alone. As you stated previously I don’t care where the orgasm comes from as long as I get it. I think everyone would be more happier if they had that mindset.
Hear hear Sabrina!
