Editing Female ejaculation (section)

==== Debate on women's pleasure in their sexuality ====
The book by Ladas, Whipple, and Perry.<ref name="Holt, Rinehart, and Winston"/> advances another feminist theory: that because women's pleasure in their sexuality has been historically excluded, the pleasure of ejaculation has been either discounted or appropriated by health professionals as a physiological phenomenon.<ref name="whipple02">

Josephine Sevely then followed up her 1978 study by publishing "Eve's Secrets: A new theory of female sexuality" in 1987, emphasising an integrated rather than fragmented approach to understanding [[female sexuality]], with the clitoris, vagina and urethra depicted as a single sexual organ.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Ingelman-Sundberg A |title=The anterior vaginal wall as an organ for the transmission of active forces to the urethra and the clitoris |journal=Int Urogynecol J Pelvic Floor Dysfunct |volume=8 |issue=1 |pages=50–1 |year=1997 |pmid=9260097 |doi= 10.1007/BF01920294|s2cid=21987189 }}</ref><ref name=gravina/> This not only challenged the traditional fragmentation of female sexuality into clitoral vs. vaginal sensation, but also sexualised the urethra.<ref name=bell/>
