Female ejaculation. While we all know what squirting is (thanks, porn), the question remains: what exactly is it? Like, the liquid? Is it pee? Water? A mixture of the two? We turned to the Internet for some answers and, well, let’s just say there surprisingly isn’t a ton of information regarding the matter. Still, we discovered a few things thanks to a recent report from Elite Daily. Read on below for more.

Female ejaculation. But first, a little refresher course on what female ejaculation is. Also known as squirting or gushing, female ejaculation is generally characterized as an expulsion of fluid from — or near — the vagina during or before an orgasm. If you're familiar with porn, which we're sure you are, you know what we're talking about.
Lack of information. As mentioned up top, there isn’t a ton of information about squirting available. “This is a phenomenon that hasn’t been studied because most people really don’t care that much,” Dr. Lauren Streicher, an Associate Clinical Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at The Feinberg School of Medicine, explained to Elite Daily. “It’s really not scientifically something that people are looking at and studying because it’s just one of those phenomenons that has been observed that some people have experienced it, but it’s not something that there’s issued science behind it.”
Available information. So, what do researchers know about the phenomenon? As Dr. Streicher notes, what is known is that the “female anatomy has many parts, and that it’s more important to understand where the fluid is coming from than to understand what exactly triggers the squirt."
Available information. In laymen’s terms? While it might be nice to know what triggers a woman to release liquid before or during orgasm, that isn't the main focus in terms of research. Rather, where that liquid is coming from is.
Available information. As life would have it, the urethra can be found right below your clitoris. “That’s where the liquid that you’re squirting is coming from, not the vaginal canal,” Elite Daily reports. "The vaginal canal is where blood comes out during your period and where penetration happens during sex."
Understanding the liquid. Still, the question remains: what is the liquid made up of? Unfortunately, scientists don’t really know. That said, there are two main theories, Dr. Streicher explained to Elite Daily. The first? That it’s urine. Yes, seriously.
Understanding the liquid. Indeed, many scientists believe that female ejaculation is nothing but a little harmless pee. Conversely, there are those who believe it’s urine mixed with a fluid coming from the Skene glands, Elite Daily reports.
Understanding the liquid. We should note that the Skene glands is something that both men and women have. As Elite Daily notes, it’s “sort of the female equivalent to the prostate,” why explains why, w hen people with vaginas experience female ejaculation, it sort of ‘shoots’ out of them, kind of like semen in men."
Understanding the liquid. “I’ve also asked them about the taste, and it smells and tastes more like the ‘vaginal juices,’” Leigh further explained to Elite Daily. So, what does this all mean? Namely, that some squirters release urine during the act, while others release a liquid that’s a mix of urine and Skene glands secretions.
Understanding the liquid. No matter what, however, one thing can be said for sure about the fluid: it’s definitely urine-based. Meaning, that, it’s essentially always liquid from the bladder, Elite Daily reports. But does this mean that you can pee before sex to avoid squirting? Not necessarily.
