Ejaculation vs. Squirting

This article makes it clear that it's about expelling a small amount of creamy fluid (ejaculation) and not about a large amount of clear fluid (squirting). Yet, both the "squirt" disamb page and a Google search for squirting link here, and there doesn't appeal an article on the clear fluid discharge.

Happy to work on adding that information but wanted to see if anyone thought it'd be better as part of this article or on its own page. I'd lean towards the former as it seems even the scientific literature is still wrestling with the nomiclature of the two effects, so I think it makes sense for "Female Ejaculation" to cover both...

I can also see an argument for a name change to "Vulvic Ejaculation" as not all people with vulvas are female. Haven't edited on here in over a decade so I'm not sure if there's a site wide policy on that.

On the last comment: retain “female”. It is far more common in RSs, far more likely to be searched by those looking for the topic, and we are referring to the female organs here, not whatever gender a person decides they are. The article title is thus biologically and sexually accurate. I have no opinion on the rest. Jtrevor99 (talk) 16:04, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the thing is all over the place, it'd make for a much better return to start aiding the content rather than messing around with names. But if anything, and since you're arguing for a mash-up yourself, the current title is lopsided in the exact other place and in the sense that it gives undue weight to only one of the two phenomena. The *much* less commonly known/named at that, nowhere justified. I'd prefer it the other way around, just call it squirting, it's what people would look for; then disambiguate for other, more specific and possibly more contentious mechanisms. Another option is trying to be general, and hyper-sciencey, and go for sth. like "orgasmic/sexual expulsions in women", knowing that even fewer people would *ever* search for something like that. To me this is all clinical paper talk, and with all respect for the required kinds of sources, body matters and sexuality isn't only about scientific papers. Nor does an encyclopedia catering to general readership absolutely have to ape their caption choices. That being said, there's a ton of papers with squirting in the title as well. No scare quotes. -194.114.136.17 (talk) 02:05, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
