There’s nothing like the anticipation of the ball dropping on New Year’s Eve. Friends and loved ones gathered around, all liquored up and having a great time. Those last 10 seconds with everyone screaming and yelling, counting down together, it’s a feeling that we all look forward to all night, if not all year. So what about ringing in the New Year with a different kind of anticipation? Yes, I’m talking about the f-word; foreplay! It doesn’t have to be the daunting experience some expect it to be, but rather an experience that should be enjoyed by all involved, and it can and will heighten the overall sexual experience. Typically the problem with foreplay is that most people don’t even understand what it really is, so here are a few things you may not have known about it.
If you don’t think foreplay matters, think again. Most women are more aroused by the idea of foreplay than sex itself. Sex isn’t always the mind blowing earth shattering event we all wish it was, but foreplay gives that sense of attention and pampering that all women love.
It’s not just about a person’s body. Foreplay can include something as simple as creating a sensual experience by setting the mood for sex. Try incorporating music, sensual colors and textures, flowers, candles, or even food.
There’s a nerve located at the top of a person’s inner thigh, and it is considered one of the most powerfully sensitive nerves in the body. Simply touching it will indirectly stimulate the genitals, so imagine the amount of pleasure that can be derived from teasing this area. Go ahead; we’ll wait while you blow your partner’s mind…
Speaking of nerves, we’ve all heard of the erogenous zones of the body. One of those is the ultra-sensitive nerve that borders the lips, and it should not be ignored. Nibbling, biting, sucking, and licking are all wonderful ways to incorporate this zone.
Another erogenous zone often overlooked and worth mentioning is the entire area between the jawline and shoulders. Yes, it’s a natural progression when in a heated make out session to kiss your way down this area, but it’s worth focusing a little extra time. Particular attention should be paid to the indention where the neck connects to the collarbone. It’s the most sensitive area and will definitely get their juices flowing.
As amazing as we all think we are at sex, the truth is that only 30% of women are able to reach orgasm through intercourse alone. Believe it or not, penetration isn’t even needed for a woman to climax, as most of the nerve ending that contribute to a woman’s orgasm are on the surface of her vulva and her clitoris, which is why foreplay is a major contributor to a woman’s sexual enjoyment.
Intellectual foreplay is another type of foreplay that is often forgotten. It means taking the time to learn your partner intellectually, spiritually and emotionally, all of which add to the pleasure of exploring them physically. Don’t forget that the brain is the largest sex organ in the human body, and fantasizing about what is going to happen or what a person wants to happen is a big part of foreplay. Keep these tips in mind as you head into the New Year and let there be a new you in the bedroom too!
