Hurrah. The G-spot does not exist. No more prayers at bedtime for double-jointed limbs. No more "left, left, right, left" instructions. The G-spot is dead.

That's what some Italian scientists think. Findings reported by Emmanuele A Jannini, professor of endocrinology and sexology at Tor Vergata University, in Rome, have revealed that the notion of one particular spot from which immense pleasure emanates, leading to female orgasm, is nothing more than folly; a myth.

There are "bum" men, "breast" men and " leg" men , but there are no "G-spot" men. Men can easily locate the bum, breasts and legs, but we're not so confident when it comes to the G-spot. And, as we all know, men don't stop and ask for directions.

Now it turns out that we've been led on a wild goose chase by Ernst Grafenberg, the German gynaecologist who proposed the existence of the spot in 1950.

I think boycotting Germany for the next 50 years is the just course of action.
