Hi there,

Still new to this whole orgasm thing.

I was enjoying myself the other night and I hit a nerve where both of my legs went completely numb for a fraction of a second. I've only had something like happen before when I hit my funny bone by accident. I'm laughing a little as I write this, but is there a nerve like a funny bone nerve in the clitoris? Except, instead of hitting it and it being the worst like when you hit your funny bone, it felt amazing. Is it safe to be stimulating a nerve like that? Or is it just an orgasm that happens to feel different?

Hi Glorious,

So, while the clitoris isn't like the funny bone, it does interact with 15,000 nerve endings throughout the whole pelvic area. When you combine that level of sensitivity with the fact that arousal and orgasm can cause things like tingling or other involuntary reactions in our limbs, that could likely explain what you noticed with your legs. And yes, it's safe to stimulate your clitoris like that; you're not going to damage anything or cause any issues by doing so.

Cool, thank you!

You're very welcome!
