The G-Spot proves its more than just a sex shop
With a name like the G-Spot, it is no wonder many students are quick to dismiss the gazebo, a circular hut constructed entirely of PVC piping with an unmistakable red and white awning and a banner that reads, “You found the G-Spot,” as no more than a one-stop sex shop.
