A member asked:
Is a female's vagina ,not vulva, designed for sexual pleasure or does it function mostly as the birth canal? i read that most of it is not sensitive.

Sexual anatomy : A female will tell you that their vagina is indeed very sensitive. Thus any touching sexually can bring pleasure. But touching or rubbing the vagina often does not in and of itself lead to female orgasm. That is why most couples also include clitoral stimulation with their intercourse or sexual play.
