Beverly Whipple

Beverly Whipple is an American sexologist who is Professor Emerita at Rutgers University and a professional author. She is a co-author of the publication The G Spot and Other Recent Discoveries About Human Sexuality.

Career Following a career in nursing, much of her academic work has been concerned with the enhancement of female sexual function. In 1981, she was co-author of Frank Addiego et al., "Female ejaculation: a case study." The paper was presented in The Journal of Sex Research and includes the first published instance of the term "G-Spot". She is an elected Fellow of the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality.

Publications Following the book, Whipple continued to publicize her work, including a 9 min video made in 1981 Orgasmic Expulsions of Fluid in the Sexually Stimulated Female. In 1984, the Journal of Sex Research described the debate surrounding female ejaculation as 'heated'.

Whipple was a co-author of the paper "Who's Afraid of the G-spot?". This was a review by six scientists who looked at the available literature to investigate the phenomena known as the G-Spot. It was published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine which concluded that more research was required.

Her techniques include using fMRI scans to gather evidence on what is happening in the brain. Her animal experiments contributed to the isolation of the vasoactive intestinal peptide and the discovery that orgasms can be rerouted to the brain via the vagus nerve without using the spinal cord, thus enabling females with spinal cord injury to achieve orgasm by psychological stimulation alone.
