The female clitoris is one of the most frequently mentioned erogenous zones when it comes to pleasure. Thanks to its countless nerve endings – nearly 10,000! – this organ surrounding the vulva offers a concentrated burst of mind-blowing sensations, especially when it is properly stimulated (with the hands or mouth...).
Are you familiar with its male equivalent, the male clitoris? Commonly known as the frenulum, this pleasure zone located at the tip of the penis is well worth exploring! A quick anatomy lesson: the male clitoris is made up of a thin membrane that connects the foreskin to the base of the glans!
With a large number of sensory nerve endings, the frenulum conceals pleasure receptors for surprising and delightful moments of playful exploration! Be careful, though, because although this small part of the glans is particularly erogenous, it is also fragile, so it must be handled with the utmost care to avoid tearing the frenulum. The use of a lubricant or a suitable product is therefore required for this type of manipulation.
How to effectively stimulate the male clitoris?
Due to its position, the male clitoris is naturally stimulated during sexual intercourse, especially during penetration. However, introducing products and accessories dedicated to pleasure into your intimate sessions can offer a new way to effectively stimulate the frenulum:
• A stimulating gel for the male clitoris like Make me Shiver for some seriously intense intimate play;
• Vibrating rings or mini stimulators to use around the frenulum to diffuse amazing vibrations, provided they are flexible and designed for this purpose;
• Adopting positions or practices that promote clitoral stimulation in men: anal penetration, doggy style position, etc.;
• A lubricant with a warming or cooling effect to reach new dimensions of pleasure;
• More precise targeting of the frenulum during foreplay with the tongue, fingers, or even breath.
For a good handling of the male clitoris, follow our advice, step by step.
To begin, gently take hold of your penis or your partner's. Proceed to retract the foreskin by bringing it down: be careful not to pull too hard, the penis is a fragile organ! Once you have located the precious pleasure zone (yours or his!), caress the frenulum with your fingers using light circular motions or up-and-down strokes. For those with a skilled tongue, it is also possible to stimulate the frenulum with playful little licks!
Male Clitoris: and What About Orgasm?
While orgasm from the male clitoris is more difficult to achieve than its female counterpart, it is nonetheless just as intense (spoiler alert: sometimes even more so)! It's all about technique and skill if you want to reach nirvana. But good things come to those who wait, especially when the reward is so great: frenulum orgasms go deeper, are more intense and last longer, not to mention the other benefits! Indeed, as pleasurable as a penile orgasm is most of the time, it is still significantly different from a frenulum orgasm.
And the little extra that makes all the difference: the orgasm of the male clitoris can also be multiple, enough to indulge in the joys of this new form of pleasure again…oh yessss, again!
Fun fact: did you know that, like the female clitoris, the male clitoris is erectile? Indeed, they are both equipped with spongy tissue that makes them engorge with blood and therefore swell as excitement rises. And after orgasm, remember to let it rest for the necessary time to pick things up where you left off… A little tip, to know when the lights are green to restart the festivities, wait until the male clitoris has returned to its initial size (a bit like the penis!).
