Study: Need for sex increases during corona quarantine
The Canadian sex toy manufacturer We-Vibe recently surveyed 1,200 people in relationships about their mood in relation to the coronavirus quarantine and their sex life.
The results clearly show that our desire for physical closeness and sexual satisfaction is currently on the rise. More than 50% of the physically separated couples stated that they were suffering from an increased need for physical closeness and sex. No wonder - our everyday lives are currently dominated by loneliness and boredom.
Sex tips for physically separated couples
Eroticism via video chat
Fortunately, we have technology on our side these days. According to the survey, one in three couples are increasingly turning to video calls during their current (involuntary) long-distance relationship. And for good reason: we can not only hear our partner, but logically also see them. This also opens up completely different possibilities for erotic adventures...
If you feel comfortable and dare, you can surprise your partner in sexy underwear during the next chat, for example. Or get into the bath together. Even going to bed at night can be made erotic with video chats: Maybe we can watch our partner undress...
(Joint) masturbation
According to the We-Vibe survey, a full 73% of couples living apart feel more desire to masturbate during the coronavirus quarantine. This is hardly surprising when we miss our partner and suffer from the deprivation of physical closeness.
The solution? Masturbation, of course! This not only avoids sexual frustration, but is also healthy for our mind and body. Studies even show that orgasms strengthen our immune system. So let's get to it!
If you feel comfortable enough with your partner, you can let them take part. This is guaranteed to turn him on and perhaps even take your sex life to a whole new level. Whether it's just a mischievous hint via text message or you let him participate (and join in) by phone or video chat depends entirely on your individual preferences. Anything is possible!
Even actively involving your partner. There are now sex toys that can be controlled over long distances. For example, the "Chorus" couples vibrator from We-Vibe, which can be controlled by a personally invited person via an app. It is a two-part vibrator that rests in the vagina and on the clitoris. If we activate our partner via the app, they can take control of the vibration modes during the next pleasure session... How exciting!
Fantasies and anticipation
Something positive can come out of every crisis. Let's look at the physical separation as an opportunity: we might be able to turn our sex life upside down. Communicating through other channels can allow us to break out of our usual routine. We can give free rein to our creativity and wrap our fantasies in an erotic story, for example, which we can send to our loved one via chat or even the old-fashioned way by post. We may also discover fantasies that we haven't had before or become curious about positions that we haven't yet dared to try. Either way, all these circumstances increase our anticipation enormously and make the long-awaited, real sex at the end of the crisis a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
