Beverly Whipple is an American sexologist who is Professor Emerita at Rutgers University and a professional author.
Following a career in nursing, much of her academic work has been concerned with the enhancement of female sexual function.
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.
[5] Her animal experiments contributed to the isolation of the vasoactive intestinal peptide[6] and the discovery that orgasms can be rerouted to the brain via the vagus nerve without using the spinal cord,[7] thus enabling females with spinal cord injury to achieve orgasm by psychological stimulation alone.
