7 top sex trends
Q
What do you think about virtual sex and how the pandemic has changed the way people are having sex?
Virtual sex has been a saving grace for people during the pandemic. For those who are dating or in a relationship, tech has allowed for moments of intimacy when being physically present is impossible. Phone or virtual sex may sound intimidating; most things feel this way when they’re new. Always check in with your partner first – consent must be present in all sexual experiences so you must make sure they’re into it. Then if they are, start slow with a sensual or suggestive message, it will help to open up the conversation and ease each other into it.
Something as simple as, ‘I’m missing your body…’, or letting them know that you’re thinking about something that turns you on. This way, dirty talk will become your new foreplay. Get creative with your vocab; pretend you’re an erotic novelist and bring as much sensual description to the experience as you can. Sexting may be exciting enough, or it may escalate to phone sex, and you can choose whether you move it to an audio or video call.
Make the most of the fact that we live in the digital era! You can still get creative with your virtual time together, my clients have shared a few of their favourite approaches with me:
- A virtual date. Instead of meeting up for a coffee or a drink, ask to FaceTime while drinking coffee in the safety of your home. This may feel awkward or weird, but hello, first dates can be awkward and weird at the best of times.
- The power of sliding into their DM’s with a flirty text – there’s a lot you can do with tech to feel more connected. Flex your creative spirit and don’t let a bit of isolation stop you from connecting with people you’re attracted to. Technology is on your side.
- Phone sex and app connectivity. There are some incredible Apps like We-Vibes We-Connect app that allows you and your partner to sync your toys and control each other’s vibrations, no matter how far apart you are. Toys play a vital role in pleasurable sex, and they can really help when physical intimacy is tricky.
Q
How important is it to communicate with your partner about what you like and what you don’t like?
Communication is the key to all great sexual experiences. It’s vital you communicate what you like, don’t like, what you want and need. I understand how edgy this can feel, so I encourage you to practice outside of the bedroom and on a daily basis. For example, you may decide to explore voicing desires when you’re receiving a massage, practice being bossy, asking for more or less pressure, being really specific with where and how you want to be touched – so you get exactly what you want. Then bring out these new found communication skills into your next sexual experience.
Q
Lily Allen partnered with Womanizer to lead the #IMasturbateDoYou campaign, which encourages women to be sexually empowered. What do you think about personalities like her using her voice and platform to educate people about sexually?
It is exceptionally powerful to see personalities like Lily Allen normalise and celebrate sexual pleasure. We can’t underestimate how revolutionary it is bringing these conversations to the mainstream — the more we talk about solo self-pleasure on a mass scale, the more we will transform the shame and stigma that surrounds sex and masturbation. It is inspiring to see how the #IMasturbateDoYou is pioneering the space.
Q
How can we start to practice mindful masturbation if we don’t know anything about it?
Mindful masturbation is a whole-body experience that allows people to engage with their bodies on a deeper level to better understand their own needs and possibilities. Incorporating yoga techniques into your self-pleasure practices is not about how flexible you can be, the intention is to connect to pleasure free from goals or stimuli, whilst exploring your body from head to toe with no rush or agenda. The art of orgasmic yoga is encouraging conscious breath, movement, sound, touch, dance and placement of attention to improve sexual pleasure.
There are a few things you can try:
- Blissful breathwork: Inhale and exhale deeply through your nose. Constrict the back of your throat, creating an ocean-like whispering sound.
- Engage your pelvic floor: As you exhale engage your pelvic floor, as you inhale relax it.
- Pelvic Tilts: On your inhale, tilt your hips forward, on the exhale, flow your hips back. This is like a gentle, slow hip thrust. Think cat and cow; you can do this kneeling, standing lying down – anyway, that’s best for your body.
- Hip circles: On an inhale, circle your hips forward, on the exhale, release and circle them back. Start small and work your way up to bigger circles.
- Caress your body: Move your hands over your entire body, face, through your hair and intend to activate every inch with a light touch. With these basic practices, start to move, breathe and touch yourself, follow the pleasure in your whole body.
- Include Play: You can also practice orgasmic yoga with other people, sensual music or toys. With unparalleled flexibility and both internal and external stimuli, We-Vibe’s Nova 2 next-generation rabbit vibrator is the ideal toy for mindful masturbation.
