10 Things Women Do When They Know They're Going To Have Sex
Hey there, fabulous ladies! Let's talk about something that's a big part of our lives – getting ready to have sex. Whether it's a planned rendezvous with a partner or a spontaneous encounter, there's often a lot that goes into preparing for the main event.
So, let's dive into 10 things that women do to get ready when they know they're going to have sex.
-
Shower Time: First things first, it's time to hop in the shower and freshen up. A quick rinse and a teeth brushing will help you feel clean and confident before getting intimate. If you have time, take a relaxing, sensual bath - perhaps with your partner - for a bit of extra foreplay and to build up your arousal.
-
Grooming Rituals: Whether it's shaving, waxing, or just a trim, grooming rituals can help you feel your best before sex. It's all about personal preference and feeling comfortable in your own skin.
-
Picking Out Lingerie: Ah, the age-old question – what to wear? Picking out the perfect lingerie will definitely set the mood and make you feel sexy and confident.
-
Scent Selection: Choosing the right scent is key to feeling irresistible. Whether it's a spritz of a perfume or a dab of scented lotion, add a touch of fragrance before getting busy.
-
Checking the Bedding: No one wants to get down and dirty on dirty sheets! Take a quick peek at the bedding to make sure it's fresh and inviting for your intimate encounter. A spritz of an aphrodisiac bedsheet spray will help set the mood and create a sensory reminder to you and your partner that it's sexy time.
-
Pre-Sex Snack: A little pre-sex snack can be the perfect way to fuel up and satisfy those cravings before getting busy. Whether it's a piece of chocolate or a glass of wine, indulge a bit before getting intimate.

Set the Mood: Creating the right atmosphere is essential for a memorable intimate experience. Light a massage candle, dim the lights, and put on some sexy music to set the mood just right.

Double-Check Birth Control & STI Protection: If you're not trying to conceive and wish to lessen the risk of contracting an STI, making sure you're protected is essential. Double-check your birth control method and make sure you have body-safe, easy-open condoms on hand to ensure you and your partner are covered and ready to go.
-
Ready The Essentials: Make sure you have what you need - and in a convenient place - to stay protected, feel good, and clean up after sex. Silky-smooth, long-lasting personal lubricant? Arousal balm to get the juices flowing? Your favorite toy(s) to heighten the pleasure? Natural pH-balanced wipes to refresh, soothe, and moisturize your sensitive areas after sex? Nothing better knowing your body-safe sex essentials are there for you when you need them.
- Get in the Right Headspace: Last but certainly not least, take a moment to get in the right headspace before getting intimate. Whether it's a quick meditation, some positive affirmations, or just a deep breath, take a moment to center yourself and slow down for even better sex.

Slow Pleasure 101: A Woman's Guide to Sensual Bliss
Hey there, lovely ladies! Today, I want to dive into a topic that's near and dear to my heart – slow pleasure. Yep, you heard me right! We're talking about taking our time, savoring every sensation, and embracing the art of slow pleasure. So, grab your favorite cozy spot, settle in, and let's explore why slow pleasure is so important, how it can lead to mind-blowing orgasms, and some of the best methods to achieve it.
What is Slow Pleasure?
First things first, let's talk about what exactly slow pleasure is. Slow pleasure is all about taking your time to fully immerse yourself in the moment and enjoy every sensation. It's about savoring the journey rather than rushing to the destination, and reaping the benefits of being fully aroused. Whether you're flying solo or with a partner, slow pleasure is about indulging in sensuality, exploring your desires, and embracing the pleasure of the present moment.
Why is Slow Pleasure Important?
Now, you might be wondering, why is slow pleasure so important anyway? Well, let me tell you, slow pleasure is essential for connecting with your body, your desires, and your partner on a deeper level. It allows you to tune into your senses, let go of stress and distractions, and fully experience the pleasure that your body is capable of. Slow pleasure can also help you build intimacy and trust with your partner, leading to more fulfilling and satisfying sexual experiences.
How Slow Pleasure Provides the Best Orgasms
Ah, the big question – how does slow pleasure lead to the best orgasms? Well, my dear, it's all about building anticipation and arousal gradually. When you take your time to explore your erogenous zones and indulge in sensual touch, you're building up sexual tension and excitement that can lead to incredibly intense orgasms. By focusing on slow, deliberate movements and paying attention to what feels good, you're giving yourself the best chance to reach new heights of pleasure.
The Best Methods to Achieve Slow Pleasure
Now that we've covered why slow pleasure is so important and how it can lead to mind-blowing orgasms, let's talk about some of the best methods to achieve it. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
1. Mindfulness Meditation
Start by practicing mindfulness meditation to help you tune into your body and become more present in the moment. Focus on your breath, scan your body for any areas of tension, and allow yourself to fully relax and let go.
2. Sensual Massage
Treat yourself (or your partner) to a luxurious sensual massage. Use warm massage oil (or better yet, a seductive, mood-setting massage candle), gentle strokes, and varying pressures to awaken your senses and heighten arousal. Take your time exploring each other's bodies and enjoying the pleasure of touch.
3. Slow Foreplay
Foreplay is essential for building arousal and anticipation. Take your time exploring each other's bodies, kissing, touching, and caressing with intention and mindfulness. Focus on the sensations and let yourself get lost in the moment.
4. Sensual Bath
Indulge in a sensual bath - solo or with your partner. Use luxurious bath oils, scented candles, and soft music to create a romantic atmosphere. Take your time washing each other's bodies, exploring erogenous zones, and enjoying the sensation of warm water cascading over your skin. For many women, a water orgasm is the best orgasm — one that comes from savoring each sensation instead of racing toward the finish line.
5. Solo Exploration
Don't forget to take time for yourself! Set aside some solo playtime to explore your body and indulge in self-pleasure. Use your hands, a vibrator, or other sex toys to explore and discover different sensations and find what feels best for you. It's never too late to improve your masturbation skills!
6. Tantric Techniques
Explore tantric techniques such as breathwork, energy circulation, and mindful touch to deepen your connection with yourself and your partner. Tantric practices emphasize slow, deliberate movements and finding connection with Tantra can lead to incredibly powerful and transformative sexual experiences.
So, there you have it – a woman's guide to embracing slow pleasure. Remember, slow pleasure is all about taking your time, savoring every sensation, and fully immersing yourself in the moment. Whether you're flying solo or with a partner, I encourage you to explore the world of slow pleasure and discover the incredible pleasure that awaits you. Embrace your desires, listen to your body, and enjoy the journey. You deserve it!
