Listen — half the time, the sexiest things in the world have absolutely nothing to do with sex itself. It's certainly a weird paradox that I don't pretend to understand, but here we are.
And this week, redditor u/pauciradiatus proved it by asking, "What's something you find erotic that doesn't involve nudity?" Anyway, let me just say, WHEW, BUDDY, there are some ~sensual~ answers.
So, here are just a few of the completely G-rated things that get people in an R-rated mood:
2."Enthusiasm! Nothing is more pleasing than someone who not only does things with you (doesn’t have to be sexual at all) but is also EXCITED to do them with you. Whether it's a DIY project, going to your favorite restaurant, going for a hike, a hobby, shopping, etc., if the person is excited to do something with you and shows enthusiasm, that is the most erotic thing I can think of."
5."All right, this is one I discovered not that long ago when my wife and I were lying in bed, ready to go to sleep. She was the big spoon that night (guys, if you haven't tried being the little spoon — trust me, do it), and right as I was falling asleep, she kissed my back, right between my shoulder blades. Let me tell you, I was no longer ready to go to sleep!"
8."Dancing. My ex once dragged me to a dancing class for a wedding. While I couldn't get past the thought of how clumsy and stupid I looked, MY GOD, was it sexy to hold my ex and do the move sets together and just look in her eyes the whole time while feeling her body moving under her dress."
9."I love it when a guy shows off his strength unexpectedly. Not bodybuilders at the gym or anything — I mean more like someone casually lifting a heavy object out of the way with ease. It just gets me going."
13."Whenever a car cuts us off suddenly and my husband simultaneously stomps on the brakes and throws his arm out to make sure I’m safe in the passenger seat."
17."Seeing a man be a good father and do something really cute with his baby or toddler. I think there’s something primal about it because my maternal instincts kick into overdrive. I think it's my brain saying, 'He'd make a good mate.' For example, I was at Target recently and this guy was making kissy faces at his daughter, then he gave her a big hug. You could just tell this little girl adored her dad."
19."When my man needs to back the car out of the driveway or a parking spot, and he lays his hand on the back of my seat and turns his body to look back, so his neck stretches. When he does that, I want to jump him every time."
Now it's your turn! Do you agree with these? What's something that involves no nudity but you can't help finding a little erotic? Share in the comments below!
