Exploring the Human Erogenous Zones... The Astoundingly Fun Way
Did you know that human erogenous zones are essentially the most sensitive parts of the body, which elicit sexual feelings when they’re touched or stimulated? As you touch your body (or your partner’s) and explore the most intimate areas, you can discover a whole new world of eroticism and desire.
As you move through our list of erotic zones below, remember the simple pleasures of sensitive sex. Practice changes in pressure, rhythm, sensations… it all plays a role in heightened sexual fulfilment and can boost your libido and improve your sex life. Why wouldn’t you want to breathe this breath of life into your relationship either with yourself or your partner, or while discovering the body of a completely new person?
Scalp
This can be an incredibly sensual spot to explore. A slow and firm scalp massage can send shivers down the spine, as can tugging at the hair or running your fingers through your or your partner’s locks.
Ears
Not only are the ears ultra-sensitive to being stroked sensually with a single finger or having the lobes tugged at gently, but it can also be incredibly arousing to have your partner’s breath against your ear whispering dirty talk to you.
Mouth and lips
These are two of the primary human erogenous zones that every single person can enjoy. Whether it’s a long and deep kiss or a soft nibble of the lower lip, your mouth area is a key exploration zone.
Nape of the neck
Did you know that tickling can be sexy? The rush of tingles spread outward from the neck can be a great way to set a sexy tone, whether with the soft touch or with a toy like a tickler.
Back
The entire back is an erotic zone, perfect for relaxing with a deep muscle massage, soft tickles, or even a canvas for food play or temperature play. Anything from melted chocolate to running an ice cube along the skin works wonders.
Breast and nipples
Kissing, sucking, tugging, or biting the nipples is an amazing way to send shocks of pleasure through your partner’s body, regardless of their sex. For folks with breasts, that area is also very sensitive to touch.
Belly button
Another spot that can be ticklish, the navel has found a way to stir people’s imagination by being irresistible. Licking, blowing, sucking, or tickling the area are some of the ways you can explore this.
Pubic hairline
This area is specific to folks with penises and is located centrally above the hips and below the belly button (some call it the “treasure trail”). Exploring this region can be particularly tempting for a person.
Penis
Penis nerve endings are some of the most sensitive in the body, so it’s a great spot to dive into. This can be done with the hand, using fingers and the palm to find what works perfectly for an individual body, or orally with a blowjob.
Scrotum
This is one of the most sensitive parts of the body for penis owners, both for potential pain and pleasure. A handjob is a great way to play with differing sensations...and don’t forget about the testicles during oral!
Clitoris
In the tip of the clitoris alone, there are over 8,000 nerve endings. Think about the bliss to be experienced during fingering or oral sex! Vulva owners: touch your body to discover how you most like to be touched by others.
Vulva and vagina
The external vulva and inner vagina are intimate places to pleasure, whether through a soft tongue during cunnilingus or rougher fisting. Keep in mind that when intercourse is painful, sensitive sex can still be enjoyed while exploring these erogenous zones.
Perineum
The perineum is the delicate bit of skin between the anus and the penis or vagina. This spot is very receptive to explorative touch and can be stimulated through light finger massage or analingus.
Prostate
The prostate is only found on folks born with penises. Here, you can find the elusive P-spot, which is arousing through anal sex with a penis, an anal toy, or with your fingers.
Inner thigh
The back of the leg is a sensitive spot, perfect for caressing softly, trailing kisses along, or even tickling. This fleshy area is close to the genitals, making it that much more erotic.
Bottom of the feet and toes
The foot in general, as well as the toes, are super sensitive. This makes them perfect for exploring erotically and with purpose. If either partner has a foot fetish, it also makes it that much more exciting.
As you reflect on the most sensitive part of the body and explore new human erogenous zones, expect your sex partner(s) to notice a significant shift to heightened pleasure. Of course, discovering your own erotic zones is possible when you touch your body, which can translate into increased sensuality with a partner; when you know exactly what you want and how to approach it, you can convey this message clearly to whoever you have sex with.
This is the beauty of erogenous areas, right? The more you learn about them, the better it is for everyone.
