Four Kinds of Sex That Sizzles
By Laura Snyder
Sure, you and your sweetie have great sex. But things can swiftly deteriorate from steamy to stale if your lovemaking only comes in one flavor. Peruse our guide to four must-have varieties of carnal coupling and see if your romantic endeavors don't get even more delicious.
Big Seduction Sex
Making a big deal of your sexy scheme - by wining, dining and wooing your mate - gives you both a chance to ease into your erotic adventures and give each other your complete attention. Make your plans in advance, so you both have something to look forward to, and treat your honey to lots of sexy suggestions of what's to come. When the big night finally arrives, think candles, soft music, an ice bucket with your favorite drinks chilling, massage oil, and an entire night uninterrupted.
Surprise Sex
While five hours of passionate lovemaking can be lovely, sometimes five minutes of super-hot sex is what really satisfies your cravings. Blindside your baby when they least expect it - during a commercial, ten minutes before your alarm is set to go off, in the shower before work -- and send a loud-and-clear message that you're still one hot couple.
X-Rated Sex
It's a turn-on for most couples to go from your normal follow-the-rules lives to being secretly naughty in the privacy of your bedroom. You don't want out-there sex every night (novelty is what make it so hot, after all), but you need to get a little wild once in awhile to keep your love lives humming. Test drive racy lingerie, steamy sex talk, new positions, secret fantasies.
Funny Sex
Often overlooked, and yet, laugh-out-loud sex is often the most bonding kind of intimacy. Squelch the instinct to ban the memories of that time you fell out of bed or got that inopportune muscle cramp. Relish the humorous, often touching, moments you share. That doesn't mean you should crack knock-knock jokes in bed, but introduce more tickling, teasing and giggling.
