10 Female Erogenous Zones You Should Know

Do you want to know where you can touch a woman to make her go absolutely nuts? We have gone over men's 10 surprising erogenous zones, but now it's time to dive into what makes women get those goosebumps and butterflies. Do you want to know where to touch your partner to turn her on? Here are the top 10 female erogenous zones! Whether you're using these as part of foreplay or just passing by during 'everyday life' these touches will most definitely inspire turn on's. GetLusty's Lora Swarts reports.

* * *

Erogenous zones are those places on the human body that are hyper sensitive and when stimulated may result in mild to intense sexual arousal. For females the obvious erogenous zones are the vulva and clitoris. But what about on the places of her body that aren't related to her genitals? Women can get aroused through lots of body parts, not just the ones below the belt. Here are 10 zones you may have overlooked that need some extra caressing tonight! When stimulating erogenous zones during foreplay, your arousal levels spike leading to amazing orgasms. Want to add even more spice? Blindfold her so she can't see where you're touching, massaging, and pleasuring.

#10 Back of knees

Whoever gets the back of their knees touched? Unexpected and surprising touches to forgotten areas of the body can really rev up her arousal levels. Lightly kiss the back of her knees or gently lick them. There are surprisingly a lot of nerve endings back there so be gentle and let her revel in the erotic sensations.

#9 Abs/stomach  

When it comes to our stomachs, women can have many insecurities. So when targeting this area of her body, make sure you avoid grabbing, pinching, slapping. Wrap your arms around her from behind, so you have full access to this zone.

Caress her ribcage, hip bones, top of pelvic bone and then back up stopping right below the breasts (they come next). Be sure to not go lower than the top of her public bone though, you want the foreplay to keep going! When you are having intercourse, lightly press the heel of your hand into the area underneath her bellybutton. This will externally target the g-spot as you are inside of her.

#8 Breasts 

The breast are hyper sensitive that breast orgasms are even possible! Lightly tracing around her breasts with your fingertips will send blood pumping through her veins. Gently suck and lick the nipples or lightly grab the breasts. If she likes it rougher with her breasts, ask her how she likes it and go for it. When the nipples are stimulated, the same region of your brain that reacts to clitoral stimulation, gets activated! Whether or not you orgasm from breast stimulation, you will still feel super aroused.

#7 Inner thighs

The inner thighs are super sensitive considering they are very close to another area of the body that gets aroused: the clitoris. There is this psychological tease of where your tongue or fingers might go next that will just drive her wild! Lightly stroke, lick, or kiss her inner thighs, but don't go to her genitals just yet. You want this tease to lengthen her arousal. Bring a vibrator into the mix to give a whole new sensation to the area.

#6 Ears

Want to send chills down her spine? Soft whispers in her ears, a little nibble of her ear lobe and sucking action will truly melt her body. When whispering in her ear, say something erotic. Tell her what you want to do to her or show her what you will do with your tongue. Lick her ear lobe as if you were licking her clitoris so she can get a sample of your soft, pleasurable tongue.

#5 Neck

Lightly blowing on the nape of her neck will give her crazy goosebumps. Sensually massage her neck, and shoulders. Pull her hair back and kiss or nibble the back of her neck. You can even gently pull her hair as you sensually play with her neck to let her know you want her badly.

#4 Scalp

There is nothing sexier than a scalp massage. Scratching her hair, massaging her scalp using your fingertips, and playing with her hair will send her in a frenzy. Using your nails, without scratching hard, feel great on the scalp. Try taking a bath together and washing her hair for something new!

#3 Lower back/Butt

Mildly squeezing or spanking her butt is wild fun. But how about rubbing and massaging the curve above her back? The sacral crease, where the lower back ends and butt begins is a very erogenous zone. Then move lower onto her buttocks for more play! Once you establish a lot of trust, you can go further and lick, suck, or penetrate her buttocks using your fingers, penis or toy. Start slow and ask her what she wants and what feels good to her.

#2 Feet

The feet have thousands of nerve endings in them. Nibbling or sucking on her toes, rubbing the arches of her feet, heels, and ankles, not only feels great but can also send shivers up her legs! The ticklish sensation can be pleasant for some leading to sensitivity and arousal as well. Assuming the feet have been properly cleansed, women love the idea of their men giving attention to their tired, over-worked feet and many men find they don't mind sucking on a toe from time to time. Try it out! Maybe you will find a new fetish or foreplay move out of it?

#1 Lips

Oh yes, you can orgasm from your lips and mouth! Kissing, licking, nibbling, and sucking can all contribute to a powerful feeling that spreads from her lips to her genitals. Play with her top and bottom lip, passionately kiss her up against a wall or in bed. Whatever you do, whether its a soft and romantic kiss or a steamy, hot, and passionate make out session, your lady will be oozing all over wanting more.

Bonus:

Her mind. Don't forget about the most important erogenous zone; her brain. Compliments, surprise gifts and long conversations that bring you closer together. The brain; it's the ultimate erogenous zone.

Gents! 7 Tips for Amazing Masturbation

Male masturbation. It's been around since the beginning of time. Around 61% of men say they masturbate (what are those other 39% doing, seriously?!). So for the majority of men, do you have techniques that work for you? How about doing it better? GetLusty writer Ryan McCarthy reports on his favorite techniques, and several new ones to make your masturbation the best--ever.

* * *

At this point, it doesn't even matter anymore. Men masturbate, end of story. Either way, masturbation feels very nice the majority of the time. There are a few things that can be explored to make it more exciting. There are so many benefits of male masturbation. So how about doing it better? Below are some recommendations I've used to make my masturbation sessions mind blowing.

#1 Use the Right Lube

Lubricant. It's not just for your car! If you're circumsized, you've likely already taken advantage of this lovely sexual aid. If you're uncircumsized, take heed! Since we have already agreed that we like to masturbate frequently, use this as a good excuse to try out new lubes and find the one that feels best for you. There are a few things to take into consideration, such as skin allergies. Water based lubes will eventually evaporate and dry out, but a few drops more along the way will reaccelerate your hands. As the name states, these are easy to wash off, so don't use these in the shower. Silicone based lubes do not contain any water and do last longer because of that fact. In the end, lube is driven by personal preference as there are many manufacturers of each type and all differ slightly. You can also try warming lubes, organic lubes, or even Vaseline (good in the shower).

#2 Switch up the setting

I don't really know how other gents set the scene for the big date with themselves, but I have a general idea. It probably involves sitting in front of a TV or computer, lube close by, Kleenex or towel even closer by and porn (feminist porn?) in the background. What about the memories of particular encounters? Doctor or lesbian fantasies? Do they ever play out in your mind? Surely they must as we are all passionate and can be stimulated by erotic memory from time to time. Try eyes closed, lying on your back in bed and think about something hot you have been a part of or would love to be a part of. What about your partner drives you really crazy? Channel those visuals and ride the wave!

#3 "The Stranger"

An oldie' but a goodie. You may be familiar with the movement, but not the term. Try using your opposite hand and flip it around 180 degrees. It kinda-sorta-just-barely-enough feels as though someone else is stroking for you.

Plus, it is a different sensation simply due to the fact that your hand is hitting different spots on your penis. Give your opposite hand a stripper name and have some fun with it! Just don't forget to occasionally tell your partner about your fantasies.

#4 Scrotum massage

With your free hand, lightly (or more deeply) massage your scrotum. As you begin to become aroused, even a light touch on the scrotum can be highly arousing. Alternatively, and to accompany the massage of your balls, also use fabrics to aid in the massage. What's been coined as the, "fabric effect." If you have any fabrics (think: silk scarves or even restraints) that may come in to play during "actual" sex, use those as an added toy. Let the material play around on your balls, legs and the base of your penis. You will enjoy it.

#5 Film yourself

It doesn't necessarily have to be shared with anyone and you may not even watch it, but, the mere thought of someone somewhere getting off on you getting off is pretty hot. If you were to share or post this video on Xtube or something similar, there is a real possibility of getting some views and fun comments too. I would like to think girls like to watch guys masturbate, though the majority of views may be from men. This is a turn on for some, not so much with others, but is still a new way to introduce another tool for arousal and to achieve a monster climax. Surely you have a webcam?

#6 Take a break for a few days

As good as it feels to release, letting it build up can give intense male orgasms. The only downside? It may be a shorter session from start to finish. But look at the bright side, it can easily be followed by another, and another and then 'real' sex. Make sure you don't go overboard with the self-love that when the real thing comes along your energy and drive are sapped. While there has been much debate on masturbation addictions, there is an upper limit. Always keep something in reserve.

#7 Carefully hold your breath at climax

As you feel that inevitable rush of sensation approaching, when you just can not hold out any longer and the time to come has arrived, take a deep breath. Hold your breath as you hold back the orgasm as long as you can. Release the breath a very few short seconds after you pop and believe me you will thank me in the morning. Be very careful with breath control as it can cause light headedness as well as so called "head rushes." Annie Sprinkle talked extensively on breathing and sex. Use your brain wisely, don't cut off the oxygen completely.

The alternative here is alternate your breathing. In Tantric sex, couples (and individuals) use breathing to achieve oneness and for a variety of other benefits. Not sure about tantric breathing? Check out this breathing technique: Inhale deeply into your abdomen, focusing on a point 2 inches below the navel and as you exhale focus on the crown at the top of your head. You can intensify the exercise by exhaling with a loud guttural sigh.

Another tantric breathing technique: Rhythmic breathing. Here, placing your hand over your navel, inhaling slowly and fully to the count of 4 and exhaling at the same rhythm. It sounds easier than it actually is. What most people will notice is that their breath stops short of their diaphragm. Just relax and don’t force your breath into your abdomen. As you grow more accustomed to breathing in this way, you will begin to open up channels, allowing the energy to reach your lower belly.

#7.5 Find a Partner and Ask for an Extra Hand or Two

A helping hand is a great assistance, indeed.

Men will never stop masturbating. Never, ever. Not when we get married, not when we get old and not even if our arms are amputated. Keep it healthy, keep yourself hygienically clean and always have a tissue near by. The stroke must go on.

Black Friday: 4 Reasons to Buy Sex Toys Instead

Though it's Thanksgiving, I'm sure you're already thinking about Black Friday. It's the time of year where we Americans get out there and shop until we drop. It's rather crazy across the country; where shoppers have been known to trample across stores. But sex toy shops--online and off--aren't known for being packed-to-the-brim with fellow shoppers. Not only that, but do you really need (want) a newer television? Or would you like to try a different orgasm this Christmas? At GetLusty, we'd say try the new orgasm. For this and more, check out GetLusty's Traci Saiz on several more reasons to go sex toy shopping this Black Friday. In Chicago? Get your free vibrator this Black Friday.

* * *

Without ado, the reasons why you should buy sex toys instead (or at least in addition) this Black Friday.

#1 Variety! Let’s mix it up!

Introducing toys into the bedroom can be fun, sexy, and exciting! Toys can enhance your arousal and your performance. Using a vibrator in just the right spot will get any woman ready to go. The same goes for men, grab a vibrator and use it on him for some effortlessly hot foreplay. Go to your nearest sex shop and see just how fun it can be. Toys are a great way to mix it up and add some variety. Talk about foreplay; tease her, tease him, get things hot and steamy with a little extra help. Buy a toy or two and stay in all weekend. Explore something new, surprise your partner, and seize the moment. So grab a toy and get to it!

The seasons are changing so why not get ready for the long cold winter by heating things up at home. Sex toys are great to add a little something extra. Not feeling it or too tired? Grab your toy, instant turn on for you both. Engage or watch! Sex toys are great for those times when one partner “wants to” and the other partner just isn’t in the mood. It allows the partner who feels like sexual pleasure the option of having it while adding the aid of a sex toy to the mix.

#2 Curious? So are we!

You’ve wanted to try something new but are hesitant and not sure where to start. Well now is your chance. Grab that special someone and hit the nearest sex shop! There are tons of different toys to choose from; cock rings, dildos, nipple clamps, whips, you name it, and they’ve got it. Anything you can think of to just try out, why not? You never know just how much fun you could have. Toys are much more than just the bachelor/bachelorette novelty gift. Vibrators and dildos don’t have to be big and scary, many are small and discreet.

Cock rings are fun for both parties! Just have your man slip one on and you both can enjoy the extra pleasure. A strap-on can open a new door for both of you---new sensations as well as a new role to play. Not sure how? Check out our 10 steps to awesome pegging. Let’s not forget one of my favorites—vibrating panties! Sure, they’re not your “typical” toy, but they are definitely a lot of fun! Feeling frisky and know you are going to be out on the town? Slip into these sexy buzz operated beauties and hand the remote over to your partner. They get to control how much and when you get that little extra buzz going. Talk about foreplay! This is an instant turn on for both of you and brings out your exhibitionist side. You will both enjoy the secret kink while going about your day or night.

Ladies, feel free to ask for a vibrator in that toy shop (do you have a Hitachi yet!?). When you get a yearning for some hanky panky give it a try. Be sure to text your partner so they can also enjoy your secret pleasure. The thought of using your little friend will get them riled up and you will both be ready for some action when you get home. Better yet, ask if your partner has a certain curiosity they would like to explore. There are anal kits and lubes, for example, that will help ease you and your partner into trying something a little more adventurous than the simple missionary position. (But if you want to make missionary mind blowing, you can always do that, too!)

#3 You really benefit

Bringing toys into the bedroom (or wherever you choose to get it on) will also enhance your health and communication while you’re at it. Yes, sex and those lovely toys are great for your body. Sex toys promote good health through all those amazing orgasms you will have.

Orgasms release stress and tension, and those endorphins are sure to put you in the best of moods. Having orgasms are healthy and fun! Have fun, get kinky and adventurous. Go ahead! Let those endorphins do the rest.

#4 Talk more about what you want

When was the last time you talked about what you really wanted in bed? Buying sex toys together can be a wonderful experience. It's not just for 'dirty' couples and won't replace your partner.

Shopping for a toy together allows you to be more open and start a conversation about what turns you both on. What better way to have sex than to do it no-holds bar! Communicate what you your interests are. Pick up a toy you’ve wanted to try, or one that just seems appealing. Toys can be the gateway to fulfilling all of each other’s fantasies!

We hope whatever you do that you'll have a fabulous time this Thanksgiving. Remember, we have plenty of ideas on making this Thanksgiving less stressful and more loving. And even cute ideas on how to make Thanksgiving a little sexier!
