All I want for Christmas is ... an erotic experience!

When we think of giving something related to sexuality, we are very likely to opt for a toy. Or so it is believed ...

According to a recent survey of 5,000 members of JOYclub, a community based on 'liberal sexuality', more than half of respondents plan to give an erotic experience to their partners , instead of sex toys or lingerie.

Seriously? In spite of the 'boom' of clitoral suckers and vibrating panties? Although I am a fan of erotic toys, as a therapist and sex educator, I love this data. Many may buy toys or lingerie, but there are erotic experiences that are priceless, some cannot even be bought and many are free .

We may have to put more skin and emotions back to our gifts, however sexual they may be, not forgetting the rest, of course. Let no one bitter a vibration from time to time.

Is it true that Christmas stokes the flame of passion and motivates us to seek warmth in our relationships and meetings? It seems that if. For about 4 out of 10 respondents, snuggling under a blanket, or other similar plans, is the best option to get it.

ROMANTICISM TO POWER

I do not say so, but that 36% who want to meet their partner in the heat of the fireplace and rekindle the flame in this way.

Desire and sensuality determine the choice of gifts, according to the study, being chosen, by both sexes, romantic experiences at Christmas.

Among all of them, 24% of respondents want a short erotic vacation and 11% prefer an erotic massage .

Interestingly, a classic like lingerie is only chosen by 2% (it will be because they didn't read my last article!). And the accessories that wink at BDSM, such as handcuffs and whips, reached only 3%. But what about the legacy of the '50 Shades of Gray '?

The most surprising thing is that sex toys remain among the last positions with a measly 4%. Could it be that they already know that 'comforters' do not comfort, for that is only done by people who love you, and the suckers do not suck as such? Although both do their job and very well, by the way.

Despite the rise of erotic toys in recent times and that more and more couples are counting on them in their relationships, it seems that romanticism is becoming fashionable, at least during Christmas. Although you can be very romantic with a toy, it is not incompatible.

In addition, the famous role plays and sexual experiences in certain places go to the last positions of the wish list at these parties.

It seems that Christmas is a wonderful time to make the passion return to the relationship but through the romantic experiences shared between the two, some of them of the most classic, and not so much for the incorporation of amazing last generation toys.

"A scented massage oil or a gift voucher to spend the night in a hotel are romantic and vibrant experiences that help strengthen a relationship as a couple, much more than sex toys," says Manuel Binternagel, JOYclub expert.

JOYclub, through this survey, shows us that being sexually liberal is fully compatible with those more traditional romantic moments. They strengthen the couple, offer pleasant encounters and light something more than the star of the tree.

Without a doubt, romanticism, healthy and desired, always benefits and does not discriminate sexualities.
