How deep is the average vagina, and does it elongate when something's in it?

Dear Alice,
I was wondering about the depth of the vagina. I've read statistics that say that the average vagina is only 3 to 4 inches deep. This seems way too small to me, since the average penis is considerably longer than that. Wouldn't that mean that most penises would crash into the cervix repeatedly during intercourse? Since this obviously doesn't happen, my question is this: does the vagina actually elongate during intercourse to accommodate the entire length of the average penis?

Dear Reader,
Yes, just as the vagina has the capacity to expand, allowing for the passage of a baby during childbirth, the vagina also has the ability to elongate during intercourse to accommodate a penis. As you mentioned, for some women, the depth from the vaginal opening to the tip of the cervix is 3 to 4 inches when they are not sexually aroused. Other women may have a vaginal depth of five to seven inches. Regardless, during arousal, blood flows to the genital area, and sexual excitement causes the upper two-thirds of the vagina to lengthen by forcing the cervix and uterus to ascend. The vagina also lubricates to help ease penetration.
Some people think that the vaginal canal is a continuously open space. However, this is a misperception. Think of the vaginal canal as if it were a balloon that is not filled with any air. The walls, which have the potential to expand and elongate, gently touch one another. When something is placed inside, they mold around the width and accommodate the length of a penis, tampon, finger(s), or sex toy.

Sometimes during penetration, a penis or other object inserted in a vagina does hit the cervix. This may be an indication that the woman is not physiologically aroused enough; when she is more aroused, her vagina will elongate and her cervix, the neck of the uterus, will lift up and move out of the way

Agreed Think_Kink, me thinks I smell a troll.

Well it says under his name he was banned.
Perhaps it was for asking stupid questions. :tongue:

is it like a hole or somthing...
Um, no, it's not a hole or something. It's more like a stainless-steel cube with 17 sharp, pointy edges.

As for how it works: you put in a quarter, and it vibrates for 10 minutes, then a dozen chocolate-chip cookies pop out.


<Shit, they really do crawl out of the woodwork, don't they?>

They really do need to start teaching sex ed. in all schools
Actually, parents should be doing that, with the schools providing additional info.

It won't happen, though.

I've been advocating honest and factual sexual education, both from parents and schools, for a long time. Neither one will likely step up to the plate and do the right thing, though. Parents are too ignorant (in general, not all are) and schools are too scared of the ignorant parents.

To really appreciate one, you have to experience it firsthand. It's really a remarkable body part, extremely durable and resilient, but the best part of it all, is that it's only available and installed on a female. They can be difficult to grasp a mastery of initially, but when one is amenable to being pleasured, the vagina by itself is simply just one of the many facets that make the entire experience of making love to a woman, perhaps, the most wonderful experience one can have in their lifetime. The release of endorphins is simply orgasmic from head to toe and in the afterglow of it all, if each party was satiated completely, the both of you know it, even share that euphoria with each other.

You are wasting your breath (or fingers) transformer. This troll was banned under this ID, and is already posting troll-spew under another one.
