Move aside, Christian Grey. There’s something even better than you out there.
I think we can all agree that 2020 has been a bit of a disappointment so far. More like total catastrophe. And we’ve all needed to really up our self-care game to look after ourselves in lockdown and beyond.
Forget bath bombs and face masks. There’s something even better for you out there. And I’m not just saying that because I’m a sex blogger. Although I may be a little bit biased…
One of the most popular sexual wellness trends of 2020 is audio erotica; as we stayed at home, more and more women across the globe began tuning in and engaging with this new form of online pleasure.
This came as no surprise to Leading Audio Erotica brand, femtasy. Co-founder Nina Julie says “We found more and more women looking for ways to stimulate their mind and body, whether single or in a relationship, audio erotica is a really good way to enhance and boost your sexual energy through storytelling and fantasies”.
femtasy share their reasons on why audio erotica isn’t just for lockdown, it is something we should all be indulging in on a regular basis.
- Hearing someone else verbalise a fantasy of yours can be a helpful way to learn how to incorporate talking during your own play with others (dirty talk)
- Audio helps you place yourself in the story so it enhances your experience and pleasure.
- Audio erotica leaves more room for your imagination; you control the images in your head
- Listening to your favourite recordings with your partner can help set the mood without being a visual distraction; allowing you to focus on each other and can intensify your foreplay.
- It’s a safe way to explore and experiment with new kinks and to learn how your body responds
- Because you don’t need to stare at a screen or book, listening to audio erotica can help you wind down/switch off before going to sleep
- Using headphones and turning the lights off or closing your eyes heightens your aural senses; making it an intensely immersive experience
- The storytelling can help inspire you to discover and love yourself
- Listening to these erotic stories can help to influence your own journey of discovery: by learning how to use and pleasure your own body
