Women aren't the only ones who can squirt! A recent scientific study has officially confirmed that men are capable of it too.
While the female squirter has long reigned in the media and generated buzz, men are only just beginning to attract a little attention.
ONY, the first French brand of intimate accessories for men, investigates male squirting in this article.
Key takeaways from the article
This article was produced by ONY, the first French brand specialising in intimate accessories for men.
Male squirting genuinely exists and has been scientifically confirmed by a Japanese study in 2018.
The expelled liquid is not semen but urine, and the phenomenon does not correspond to a standard orgasm.
The prostate plays a key role in this type of ejaculation during certain forms of sexual stimulation.
The practice is difficult to master and can carry risks, such as irritation or a temporary reduction in sensitivity.

Understanding male squirting
To better understand the phenomenon, let's decode a few key terms together. First of all, a male or female squirter is a person capable of squirting.
Squirt is an English term meaning "jet" or "spurt". More concretely, it refers to the emission by the human genital system of a whitish or transparent liquid substance. Squirting refers more specifically to the sexual practice or set of methods that allow the emission of this very special substance. But before going further, here is an important clarification: the liquid emitted is not semen. And it does not correspond to the penile orgasm you are used to.
Rest assured, however, the squirter — male or female — can still experience intense pleasure during this experience!
Let's continue our investigation with female squirting, which is hugely popular online.

The female squirter widely studied
The female squirter has been analysed many times by journalists and scientists alike. The proof: it is estimated that between 10% and 40% of women have already experienced squirting. The reason for such a wide range? The exact percentage varies due to the many studies published…
However, it is important to emphasise that every woman has this potential within her. Success lies in mastering certain techniques and understanding the psychological dimension.
In some women, once orgasm is reached, a bladder contraction can occur, causing a significant flow. Although the substance ejected originates from the urinary system, its composition remains a subject of debate within the scientific community.
As 20minutes explains, the liquid expelled by female squirters comes from secretions of the Skene's glands. These glands release between one and two millilitres of this substance, which mixes with urine.
So, this liquid is not quite urine in women, but the reasons for this difference remain unclear.
When it comes to male squirters, more in-depth research online is needed.
A topic overlooked by the press
Yes, it is rare for journalists to look into this subject. Unlike female ejaculation, for example, which receives a great deal of media attention, the male squirter remains in the shadows.
It is on the internet, often on specialist platforms, that some information can be found.
Science breaks its silence with a landmark study
Fortunately, science seems ready to fill this media gap with this study conducted in Japan in 2018. Doctors inserted an ultrasound probe into the rectum of a volunteer who claimed he could easily squirt.
"An ultrasound revealed a strong prostatic contraction and pelvic muscle contraction just before squirting. Then the jet moved from the urinary bladder to the prostatic urethra."
This is historic! This study demonstrates for the first time the real existence of squirting in men.
While the composition of the liquid emitted by female squirters is still debated, it is clearly established that the substance ejected by men is indeed urine!
The mystery is finally solved — thank science for that!
The role of the prostate
Fortunately, scientists have finally decided to lift the veil on this mystery!
But where does this substance come from? The prostate is a distinctive feature of male anatomy. This gland, roughly the size of a ping-pong ball, is located in front of the rectum in men.
During sexual stimulation, it plays a key role, triggering that very special ejaculation as observed in the Japanese study.
Becoming a male squirter
Online users share their experiences.
Is it a feeling of total power linked to the emission of this liquid, a simple desire for pleasure, or an overwhelming urge to explore one's body?
Squirting enthusiasts are divided on these questions. Opinions vary depending on each person's personality. Some have even taken up this technique out of envy, wanting to imitate women who have held this power alone for too long.
Now let's move on to practice.
Online users share their tips!
Warning: squirting is a set of techniques that are difficult to master and not without risk. This experience should never be painful. If your penis starts to feel irritated, stop immediately.
As many online accounts confirm, several months of practice are needed before achieving it.
First tip: master a new masturbation technique
Want to squirt? Focus on your glans by massaging it in a circular motion. The pressure applied by your palm should be firm, without causing pain of course. With this stimulation, you will gradually feel a growing urge and sensation to urinate. But don't stop the stimulation, even if the sensation feels unfamiliar. When the urge becomes too intense, let yourself go and squirt!
Second tip: practise after ejaculation
Some online users claim that squirting is easier after ejaculating. It's hard to know exactly why. Our hypothesis: ejaculation may bring about a state of muscular and mental relaxation, reduce tension and make certain erogenous zones more sensitive. All of these factors make the squirting experience easier to achieve.
Third tip: lubricate the area thoroughly
It is also recommended to lubricate the fingers and glans thoroughly just before ejaculation. The lubricant makes the circular palm movements on the penis easier and helps prevent irritation.
Fourth tip: use a sex toy
Another tip is to use a sex toy. While it is possible to squirt using your hands, this technique is harder to master. Few men manage it.
Various methods, including the use of a masturbator, are suggested by online users.
As a couple, it's possible too
Alternatively, it is possible — and even advisable — to explore squirting with your partner.
Some women excel in the art of using their tongue. These experts form circular movements with this organ while applying pressure to the glans and simultaneously stimulating their partner's sex. Pure delight!
With grace and skill, they ultimately succeed in bringing their partner to squirt.
What does it feel like to squirt?
According to those in the know, an uncontrollable urge to urinate washes over you, reaching its peak at the moment of "squirting". This sensation, which is completely normal, precedes the emission of a significant quantity of liquid. You then experience a truly unique pleasure!
As pleasurable as an orgasm?
However, as mentioned earlier, squirting is not the same as an orgasm.
Even if it can be a source of pleasure, the sensations it produces differ considerably from those linked to ejaculatory orgasm.
In any case, take note: squirting is a technique that is difficult to master!
Zero risk?
It is crucial to warn you: online accounts report a reduction in penile sensitivity, ejaculation, and even libido after practising this technique.
It is therefore essential to stop all stimulation as soon as you experience any discomfort or genital irritation.
What about cleanliness?
Final tips: it is recommended to practise in an easy-to-clean environment, such as a bathroom, or to use a sheet you don't mind staining.
Yes, the flow generated by the jet can be impressive in terms of volume!
Key takeaways on the male squirter
In conclusion, male squirting deserves far greater media coverage. First and foremost, it is essential to break stereotypes and acknowledge that male sexuality is just as diverse as female sexuality.
If the media don't cover it, other less reputable sites may step in and spread dubious, unverified information.
Thanks to the internet, the male squirter is starting to gain visibility, but the techniques to become one are not without risk. Many practitioners report a desensitisation of the glans and even a temporary inability to achieve an erection.
