This article is intended for those who are in self-isolation and healthy. Please note we are not advocating sex or physical contact if you or a partner have tested positive for Coronavirus. Nor are we making light of this highly-infectious virus. We take all the guidelines seriously and wish everyone health and recovery.
What Now?
The world is on lock-down! As the ever-evolving coronavirus (COVID-19) takes hold and spreads further, most of us have decided it's best to self-isolate. Given the reality that this is the most effective way of reducing its spread, the fact is, we will be spending an unprecedented amount of time at home (with ourselves or with a partner).
So why not take advantage of the sudden change in lifestyle and make more to time for sex. Here are some ways you and your partner can occupy yourself during home confinement. Who knows, you may emerge feeling more connected to yourself and your lover.
Creative Sex Tips for Home Confinement
Games People Play
Time to break out the fun with an erotic indoor game. Sexopoly is a board game that will take your mind off the news and have you focus more on your pleasure. We love this game as it lets players compete in building the most successful business in the adult realm. However, Sexopoly isn't all about business. There are 'Risky' or 'Frisky' cards which can help or hinder your progress by relieving you of your money, your clothes and your inhibitions.
Lessons Learned
It's understandable that you may be feeling nervous about having sex at all. The good news is you don't have to have actual sex to have an exciting time. In fact, the key to great sex isn't a certain position, technique, or more foreplay---it's finding new ways to communicate. Whether your home confinement is by yourself or with a lover, making a sex list can help open up the lines of communication and experiences.
To start, create a list of every type of sexual activity with columns for "yes", "no" and "maybe" beside each one. Print out copies and fill out the list on your own. The fun part is comparing your sex list as well as finding new things to try out. You will be surprised by the answers!
Pleasurable Sex Hacks
Put your dirty mind to good use during your home confinement. Being stuck at home [with no sex toys] does not preclude you from occupying yourselves. We bet that there is an arsenal of pleasure products simply laying around your house.
If you are not certain where to begin, here's a quick list of pervertible items simply laying around and ready to be used in an entirely different way.
- Wide chip bag clips make for great nipple clamps
- A butter knife placed in the freezer for temperature play
- Small ice cubes come in handy as anal beads
- Leather belts, ties, and scarves make great restraints
- Wooden spoons or paint stirrers make awesome paddles
- Saran Wrap makes for an unbeatable body wrap
- Coconut oil is a good substitute for lube.
Dirty Talk Made Easy
Remember Mad Libs? Well, they aren't for the kiddie playgrounds anymore. Creating a dirty version of Mad Libs is an inventive way of talking dirty, especially for those who are shy. Here is a fill-in-the-blank version to get you started.
- I love it when you [ ] my [ ].
- I want you to [ ] until I [ ].
- It makes me feel [ ] when you [ ].
- I like the way you [ ] my [ ].
- Feeling your [ ] inside me makes me want to [ ].
If you run out of ideas or need inspiration, just Google "Dirty Mad Libs" for more X-rated templates.
Let Your Fingers Do the Walking
There's no arguing that sex toys are a great addition to your self-pleasure or couple-play routine. Sometimes, however, it's good to get back to the basics with the most powerful sex tool you have at the ready. Your hands!
The advantage of using your hands is that they never need batteries and you can tailor your pleasure experience with varying motions and pressure. Your hands and fingers are so available it would be a shame to not let them come out and play tonight! Oh, don't forget the lube.
Not Only for the Lonely
The coronavirus has wreaked havoc all across the world, causing some couples to remain isolated at home or mile apart for an indefinite amount of time. Obviously this makes it difficult to connect sexually when you're not together. Although you may be separated physically you can both remain connected sexually. We absolutely love the KIIROO interactive sex toys. Using teledildonic technology these toys let you experience a simultaneous pleasure whether you're near or far. For instance, the KIIROO Titan male stroker can be connected to any one of over 4,000 interactive videos on a range of different content platforms.
Stream and Play
While most people are isolated and binge-watching their favorite shows, we came up with a creative way you can engage with one another in a highly erotic way. Movie reenactments! Create an entire library of sexy movies and play out the hot sex scenes. Here's a list to get you started.
- Secretary
- Two Moon Junction
- Bound
- Bolero
- 9 1/2 Weeks
- Lolita
- Sex, Lies, and Videotape
- Eyes Wide Shut
- True Lies
Other Adult Activities
Think you need to leave your house to play naughty? Au contraire! There are plenty of adult activities that can turn every room in your house into a sex playground. Here are a few examples:
- Turn the shower on nice and hot, and make the room steamy for added mystery. Get wet, lather yourselves, and rub your bodies together. Explore each other using soapy hands while the hot water rinses everything away.
- Get dirty together using body paint. Paint stripes on your penis, polka dots on your balls and smiley faces on her boobs. When the fun is done, climb into the tub and take turns washing everything off. Use the Love is Art kit and commemorate your home confinement with a sexy masterpiece.
- Take part in an X-rated fashion show. Go through your closet and assemble several sexy outfits. Be as creative as possible. Set up a viewing chair for your partner along with a cat-walk. Strut your stuff while they sit and watch. Make it even more provocative with a "No Touching" rule.
- Forget Strip Poker! Up the ante by playing a game of Strip Scrabble. Spell out dirty words and phrases. The player with the lowest word score has to remove a piece of clothing. Continue playing until you're both naked. The winner gets to pick the position, fantasy or location for your sexy exploration.
We may not have much control over how the COVID-19 pandemic evolves, but we do have choices on how we respond to it. You can use this time to start investing in your relationship and sex life. If you have to be stuck at home, you might as well get some benefit.
