Touch. Touch is one of the most exciting senses we have. Feeling the softness of one’s skin, touching the firmness of shoulder blades or a back, feeling the curvy, solid area of a hip bone – all a mesmerizing motion one can’t get enough of. And to be touched – our skin has thousands of nerve endings that beg to be touched, tickled and massaged. While our hands do most of the touching, other body parts can take their place too. Our bodies have several erogenous zones that savor every swipe of a finger, kiss of a mouth or tickle from the hair on your lover’s head. Touch allows you to give and receive pleasure all at once.
Taste. We all have different tastes, literally and figuratively. But, we aren’t talking about clothes or home décor - we are talking about sweet, salt, bitter and sour (the fifth recognized taste, umami, is primarily the taste of different amino acids, which is not present when regarding taste in a sexual manner). Our ability to taste allows us to protect ourselves from poison, as well as delight in delicacies put before us. Taste also relies on smell – without smell, taste just isn’t the same (try holding your nose and telling the different taste between various foods and beverages - not the same, is it?). And just as we all have different smells at different times; our body also tastes different depending on the time of day, our activities and its unique chemical make up. Running your tongue down the neck of your lover may taste salty-sweet, while doing the same thing in the inner thigh may produce a completely different taste. It’s all about your lover’s body, and your tastebuds – something to relish in time and time again.
