We asked real women to reveal their number one sex-boosters, and here are the top picks. (Psst, the trick is to have fun while you’re at it!)
Be creative
“The longer we were together, the more we open up to each other. Trust is the secret to our great sex life, as it allows us to be creative. We tie each other up with handcuffs or his ties, play around using toys and even have a romp outdoors. We also made a tape together, but kept it really under wraps. But it was so hot, you could almost see sparks flying!” – Julia 27
Australia-based sex and relationship expert Jo-Anne Baker agrees that this is an excellent way to have some fun in the bedroom. “Handcuffs and ties are designed to make you feel like your control has been taken away and given to the other person, which can be a huge turn-on for both,” she says. “But it is important to agree on boundaries first.”
EXPERT TIP: Try new things where you have total control. Use a ribbon first, so you can undo it if you get uncomfortable.
Use a secret code word
“My partner and I use a code word for sex. We call it ‘Fight Club’, and the rule is, you don’t talk about Fight Club. It’s our secret, so it’s a massive turn-on and we laugh about it when we have an actual fight. We’ll yell out in public, ‘Do you want to fight about it?’, and then we’ll find a place somewhere random for our version of a ‘fight’.” – Sam, 21
“It’s fun to share something private that has a different meaning to you and your partner,” says Jo-Ann. “It’s that extra closeness that allows you to bond publicly without having to spell anything out specifically.”
