REMAKE YOUR LIBIDO BY TONIGHT
Try as many of these tips as you like — the more, the merrier your lovemaking.
Take a walk at lunch: In a study of women ages 45 to 55, sexual satisfaction correlated directly to fitness. “The less exercise they got, the lower their desire and sexual satisfaction,” says study author Judith R. Gerber, a psychologist at the University of Vermont College of Medicine.
Read something kinky: Erotic literature “can quickly jump-start arousal,” says Carol Queen, a sexologist who works at Good Vibrations, a woman-owned sex shop in San Francisco. She recommends the Herotica series, written by women, and The Diary of Anais Nin. Queen says the book is “perfect for anyone who’s not ready to get into bold four-letter words.”
Flex your muscle: Flexing your pelvic floor muscles — the ones that stop the flow of urine — instantly increases desire and sexual sensation because you’re mimicking the contractions of orgasm, says sex educator Patti Britton.
Have a massage: “The skin-on-skin contact stimulates the sex hormone oxytocin,” says Ian Kerner, author of She Comes First. “The more oxytocin released, the more desire a woman will feel.”
Take a shower — together: Being clean makes you feel sexier and more open.
Slip into something sexy: Putting on a pair of black stilettos or a sheer cami invigorates you sexually because it makes you feel more daring.
(I'm sure that last one applies to females, so guys, calm down.)
