Sex, pleasure, and the best way to achieve orgasms vary from couple to couple. What gets you in the mood might be someone else’s ultimate turn off.
But new research has revealed that one thing can ensure sexual satisfaction more than sexy lingerie and foreplay — and it’s talking about love.
Sex, pleasure, and the best way to achieve orgasms vary from couple to couple. What gets you in the mood might be someone else’s ultimate turn off. But new research has revealed that one thing can ensure sexual satisfaction more than sexy lingerie and foreplay — and it’s talking about love.
The study, conducted by Chapman University, examined the sex lives of 39,000 married couples and co-habituating heterosexual men and women who have been with their partners for more than three years.
They found that saying “I love you” during sex was the top behavior for guaranteeing satisfaction with 75% of satisfied men and 74% of satisfied women admitting they do it.
Other things that were found to boost satisfaction were mixing it up and trying new things, taking time to set the mood and putting effort into foreplay. Basically, you get out what you put in.
The study found that only half of the couples involved considered themselves to be sexually satisfied and that other sexual acts — like showering together and using sex toys — were lacking.
“Almost half of satisfied and dissatisfied couples read sexual self-help books and magazine articles, but what set sexually satisfied couples apart was that they actually tried some of the ideas,” said Dr David Frederick, Assistant Professor of Psychology at Chapman University and lead author of the study.
In conclusion, sex is like a marriage in the sense that it needs commitment, effort, and passion to be successful. So, if you’re feeling less than happy in the bedroom, why not try something new or tell your partner just how you feel about them.
