The
cold season has once again hit the nation when people will cower under
bedspreads at night for warmth. These are certain s*x tips to chase the
winter cowering from you at night.
It’s getting dark early and temperatures are plunging – but that’s no reason to put your s*x life on ice.
While you might shiver at the idea of peeling off for some naughty fun, there are plenty of benefits to a winter romp.
We’ve teamed up with sexperts Tracey Cox – who has her own range of
adult toys with Lovehoney – and Ann Summers’ resident sexpert Eve Fifer
to give you some tips to make this winter the hottest ever.
Why Have Winter S*x?
There's a whole host of seasonal health benefits to romping these dark days and nights away.
They include supporting your immune system and helping to ward off pesky coughs and colds, and even battling cancer.
Tracey says: “It’s all too tempting to snuggle into a thick woolly jumper when the mercury drops, rather than your partner.
But scientific research proves winter is actually the best time to indulge in some racy romps.
“Sex boosts your immune system – which is rather handy when surrounded by sniffing, sneezing commuters.
“Research shows sex also improves brain function and reduces
stress levels. If you’re a man, regular intercourse may even
significantly reduce your risk of developing prostate cancer.
“Another bonus for blokes is a 16-year US study which found men
who had sex at least twice a week were up to 45% less likely to develop
life-threatening conditions such as heart disease than men who got
fruity less than once a month.
“Nothing gets the circulation going and warms you up better than a vigorous s*x session."
1. Get In The Mood
When it’s cold, it can be difficult to get in the mood for stripping off and having s*x.
But you can boost your mood and libido – and even drag yourself away from binge watching the latest box set.
Eve advises: “If you’re struggling with the actual ‘just do it’
feeling after a long, working day, then start by building the
anticipation early, before you both get home. Start with a cheeky text
early in the morning.
“Be suggestive about what you want to do this evening, or send a naughty pic (even cash in a sex cheque!).
“This is sure to boost your mood during the day. We love a build up.
“When you get home, there is nothing wrong with a quickie
in-between the ad breaks, so grab a blanket and keep staring at the TV
while you work your magic on each other, without the cold interfering at
all.
"You may need to rewind whatever you’re watching by the finale, as more than likely your mind will be elsewhere.”
2. Dress For The Occasion
A pair of snuggly PJs, a comfy onesie, some fleece-lined trackie bottoms – the perfect winter attire right?
Well think again – as the winter is no excuse to dress like a slob.
Tracey says: “We eat more in winter and as the scales go up,
our desire for sex goes down. The thought of exposing our less
than-perfect bods isn’t appealing.
“By all means cover up – just not in scruffy old track suits.
“Ladies, try investing in lingerie which covers up your wobbly bits – but still gets your partner going.
“Baby dolls hide a podgy tum, corsets slim you down while hiking up your boobs, black stockings slim your legs.”
3. Boost Body Confidence...By Having More S*x
Eve reckons you can get over any body confidence issues by getting down to it more often.
She says: “One of the best ways to feel confident in the
bedroom is to have more sex. Having body hang-ups is one of the major
reasons we don’t have plentiful sex.
“You can also pick a position that works best for your body
consciousness. For example, being on top and leaning backwards, is great
for elevating those pesky tummy rolls.
“If you still feel that you don’t want to expose your wobbly
bits, then cover up. Play dress up with Mrs Santa or a cute baby doll
chemise with simple stockings or hold ups to shoot you into sexy town.”
4. Change The Location
You might think your warm cosy bed is the best place to romp – but keep things fresh by venturing elsewhere.
Tracey says: “Sex in an erotic, exotic playroom is super exciting.
“Soundproof it for kids/flatmates/your mother when she comes to stay. Heavy curtains and carpets soak up sound.
“Get the lighting right. For the most flattering angle, light
from below or at eye level. Tea-lights on saucers do the job (though
best to keep them a safe distance from bedcovers or enthusiastically
thrown bras, knickers or boxers).
“Dimmers are the next best thing and can match whatever mood you’re in.”
Eve adds: “As great as bed is, it’s also great fun to be spontaneous. Challenge yourself to make the ‘mundane insane’.
“Slam shut the dishwasher door and jump on the kitchen side
instead. Leave the hoover on to cover the background noise of loud,
unplanned sex… then go to bed and do it all again.”
5. Get The Accessories Right
Adding some bonus extras to a sensual night can spice things up – while keeping you toasty warm.
Eve explains: “Not everyone has an open fi re, so why not crank up the heat with multi-use massage candles?
“Massage candles heat the room and are filled with heady scents.
“They burn at a low temperature for you to pour wax over your
partner and give them the most sensual massage they have ever received.”
Tracey adds: “Experiment with furry handcuffs, stockings and scarves for tie up, erotic books or movies and sexy clothes.”
6. Good Clean Fun
Get those bathroom windows steamed up for all the right reasons this winter time.
Eve says: “Bath and shower sex are a definite yes, yes, yes
when it’s cold outside. Set the scene by lighting candles, warm up with
the water and create some waves, as it’s a great time to use a
waterproof toy on each other.
“Create a no-go zone and don’t let your partner touch these
areas for 10 mins. You’ll be hyper aware of the areas that your partner
can’t touch and this leads to explosive ends.”
7. Home Or Away
Book a naughty weekend away.
Eve says: “It’s the perfect opportunity to wear nothing but perfume underneath those winter duffle coats.
“Perhaps mention this at check in and you never know, this could incite your sexiest lift journey ever.”
