10 HOUSEHOLD ITEMS YOU CAN USE DURING SEX
Stop what you're doing, take a look around and find one thing in your immediate surrounding that you could potentially use (safely) during sex. Is it a notebook perfect for a good spanking? The ice cubes floating in your drink? That spatula that's begging to smack a bare bum? These household/everyday things that you can easily turn into sexual tools are what sexologist, author and owner of the sex positive, sex education venue Velvet Lips, Marla Renee Stewart calls "pervertables."
Marla introduced us to this term at Virtual Naughty N'awlins during her workshop "The Ultimate Guide to Seduction and Foreplay" which is also the title of her newly released book ("The Ultimate Guide to Seduction and Foreplay: Techniques and Strategies for Mind Blowing Sex"). She defines them as the items around you that you can use during foreplay to add some creativity and spontaneity to the mix.
"Whether you source out seduction and foreplay props in your house or at a specialty store, they are sure to inject creativity and curiosity into your sexual routine. You do not have to buy the whole lot or turn every household item into a pervertable, but if you continue to be open and experimental with tangible objects, you will likely find that they help to keep your sex life fiery for years and decades to come," says Stewart in her book (which is currently sold out—might wanna get on the waitlist).
She also recommends creating a sexy kitchen scene by preparing food and making mental notes of everything in your kitchen and using wooden spoons, spatulas, and other flat utensils for spanking, ice to engage in temperature play, chip clips to double as nipple pinchers or skin clamps, and forks for sensation play.
Here are 10 things, that you probably have at your house right now for a sexy, impromptu, at-home adventure.
10 PERVERTABLES YOU CAN USE DURING SEX:
A scarf or neck tie
Find something soft, silky, smooth and kind of long to turn into a blindfold or makeshift handcuffs.
Ice cubes
Use them in a drawing motion on your partner's skin, or place them on pressure points, nipples and the sexy zones until they melt to create a chilly zing of energy throughout their body. Extra points if you do it only using your mouth.
Wooden Spoons and Spatulas
Much more affordable than most sex paddles on the market because they're probably in your kitchen right now. Next time you're whipping up something to eat, give your partner a little surprise love pat and see where that takes you.
Coconut Oil
Studies have shown that coconut oil is clinically proven for safe and effective use as a moisturizer and lube and can allow for longer lasting intercourse. It has been especially helpful for women going through menopause who experience dryness and pain during sex. Look for coconut oil that's "unrefined" and preferably organic. Warning: using coconut oil may weaken latex condoms.
Belt
An oldie but goodie. It's just as simple as removing your clothes for the day and using what you got right then and there. Make sure your partner has given consent when playing like this.
Electric Massager
Get some of those good vibrations. Take your trusty neck/back massager and use it downtown for ultra-stimulation to get the mood going.
Notepads, folders, rolled up papers
Perfect for living out that office fantasy. Take the hardback of a notebook, a folder or some rolled up papers to give a good spank. Next thing you know you'll be playing "Board Meeting" all over the house.
Sauces/Syrups/Honey
Drizzle something sweet over their breasts or on any nook and cranny and just gorge on each other. When cooking something, allow them to taste test sauces and batters by sucking it off your fingers and lips. Be sure not to insert any inside of you, but everything else on the body is fair game.
Flower petals
So delicate yet so effective. Take the petal of a flower and slowly brush it over your partner's skin for a subtle yet sensual experience. Place the petal on the navel and blow it softly until it reaches the sexy region. You'll be keeping flowers around a lot more often.
Sock or Panties
These can also be used to tie up hands and feet or stuffed into the mouth for a fun, sexy gag.
"Pervertables can engage your sexual desires because every room you have, there's a different option for playing with your partner and engaging in something new. Remember, variability is the thing that keeps your sex life spicy and fun," says Stewart. Be sure to pick up a copy of her book "The Ultimate Guide to Seduction and Foreplay: Techniques and Strategies for Mind Blowing Sex".
Bet you're already looking for the pervertable closest to you right now. Have fun and let us know how it goes.
