Many of us forget that sex is not just about the vagina and penis. There are several erogenous zones in every human body, and surprisingly, they are similar for both men and women. The next time you are between the sheets, try to examine every inch of your partner’s body, rather than moving in an obvious direction.
Remember that everyone likes to be touched differently, and what drives one person crazy may be unpleasant for another, but if you pay attention to all the parts of your loved one’s body, there may be some hidden hotspots. Let’s look at eight erogenous zones that everyone should know
1. Lips
Since making love most often begins with kissing, focusing on your partner’s lips for a little longer will help him/her warm up and get excited.
Try this: Slowly kiss your partner’s lips and lightly rub your tongue against them – if your partner responds well, try to suck lower lip too.
Or do this: Caress and massage his/her lips with your own or gently bite or use your thumb to caress them.
2. Neck and décolleté area
There are so many nerve endings in the sides of the neck and on the nape of the neck that some people only need a light touch on their neck to make a wide smile appear on their face.
Try this: Alternately kisses on the neck and gentle bites – the contrast is extremely nice. You can also add a little roughness, biting and sucking here, as long as your partner likes it.
Or do this: Try pulling your tongue from your partner’s neck hole to his/her larynx.
3. Ears
For many, the favorite part of the ear is the earlobe, while others prefer the simple whispering of sweet words in their ears. Take into account that it is not suitable for everyone – if your loved one has had a bad “wet” experience, it may frustrate them, so evaluate the situation before you start.
Try this: Gently stroke the edge of your partner’s ear with your finger. A woman will like it if you lightly curl the strands of her hair behind her ear.
Or do this: When you kiss your partner’s neck, gently move up to the part behind their ear, and then gently squeeze the earlobe.
4. Scalp
There is a reason why head masseurs have become so popular.
Try this: Start by playing with your partner’s hair and move on to scalp massage with your thumb and finger pads. Then gently guide your nails over their scalp, creating an unforgettable feeling.
Or do this: Tighten your fists and lightly press just above the nape of the neck, around the end of the hairline. This feels just like a massage and is great for relieving tension.
5. Inner wrist
Because the inner wrist is an area that we rarely touch, it can be a particularly sensitive area.
Try this: Sit in front of your partner (for example, at a table in a restaurant) make eye contact with them, gently hold your partner’s wrist in your hand, and using the thumb of the other hand, caress the middle of your partner’s inner wrist.
Or do this: Foreplay doesn’t just happen in the bedroom – the next time you hold hands, use your thumb to stroke the inside of their wrist.
6. Nipples
The nipples are full of nerve endings and are one of the most sensitive parts of the body. This place is usually forgotten when it comes to men, but for some they are incredibly sensitive.
Try this: Caress the area around their nipples with your fingertips and kiss them carefully. Start with light touches until your partner says they want more.
Or do this: Slowly and easily blow your breath on them. After a while, move on to the touches and circular movements with your tongue.
7. Buttocks
There are millions of nerve endings on the buttocks. Be playful!
Try this: Give your partner a long back massage and after you get to the lower back, go to the buttocks to tempt even more.
Or do this: When your sweetheart gives you oral sex, squeeze his/her butt to show how much you enjoy it. Some people love naughty spanking during sex or foreplay.
8. Feet
If you’ve ever had a really good pedicure with a foot massage, you already know what it’s all about.
Try this: When giving your partner a foot massage, bend over and playfully put one or two of his fingers in your mouth.
Or do this: Kiss and lightly squeeze the skin on their feet and toes or rub them with massage gel.
Want more? The inside of the thighs, pelvic region, penis and vagina are self-explanatory, so we haven’t included them here, but we have a lot of advice on how to give good oral sex, as well as how to use your hands if that’s what you’re looking for.
