Beverly Whipple
Beverly Whipple is Professor Emerita at Rutgers University and a professional author and sexologist. She is a co-author of the publication The G Spot and Other Recent Discoveries About Human Sexuality.
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 Addiego et al.'s "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".[1]
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.[2] In 1984, the Journal of Sex Research described the debate surrounding female ejaculation as 'heated'.[3]
Her techniques include using FMRI scans to gather evidence on what is happening in the brain.[4] Her animal experiments contributed to the isolation of the vasoactive intestinal peptide[5] and the discovery that orgasms can be rerouted to the brain via the vagus nerve without using the spinal cord,[6] thus enabling females with spinal cord injury to achieve orgasm by psychological stimulation alone.[7]
