This year we can greatly thank the LoveHoney group (the little magicians who own the most famous brands for adults like Womanizer or Happy Rabbit). They conducted a study with their customers to discover the sexual trends that are on the rise in 2023!
You want to know everything about sexy trends to thrill your couple this year: let's go, we're telling you everything so you can have fun and have new ideas.
To start, let's start with sexual awareness.
Sexual mindfulness is the practice of being totally present and aware of your sensations and emotions during the sexual act. This may include observing one's own thoughts and feelings without judgment, as well as paying attention to one's physical and emotional sensations. Sexual mindfulness can help strengthen emotional connection and improve the overall sexual experience. It can also be used as a stress and pain management technique. Tantric sex, for example, is a form of sexual mindfulness.
Open intimacy is in fashion
Open intimacy refers to a approach to sexuality in which partners are open to the idea of having sex with other people, outside of their traditional monogamous relationship.
This may include arrangements such as polyamory, swinging, or swinging. Open intimacy requires generally open and honest communication with your partner, as well as respect for the limits and needs of each person involved. It is important to note that open intimacy is not for everyone and everyone has the right to decide what is best for their sexual needs and desires.
According to LoveHoney,
“Open intimacy leads to better communication about our needs and desires. A better exchange about what is needed for sexual development ultimately leads to better relationships and more sexual happiness.”
These practices are becoming more and more popular and have come to light since women and LGBTQI+ communities have spoken out in the world of sexuality.
Sextech expected by consumers
SexTech is a term used to describe sex industry technologies that are considered innovative and advanced. This can include a wide range of products and services, such as connected sex toys, dating apps, cam girl services, and live video platforms. Smart SexTech often focuses on using technology to improve the sexual experience, offering products and services that are safe, ethical, and based on consent. Smart SexTech can also include technologies used in the field of sexual health, such as tests for sexually transmitted infections or contraceptive devices.
In short, what consumers want are connected sex toys, services halfway between real and digital (such as VR Porn for example) or even next-generation solutions to solve health problems or make life easier.
Communicate better and realize your fantasies
Communication is really the basis in a couple. This allows to improve many things and to allow the longevity of the couple. Then, when you are confident there are several reasons why it can be beneficial to talk about your fantasies with your partner. First, it can be a way to get to know yourself better and understand your own sexual wants and needs. It can also strengthen the connection and intimacy with your partner by allowing them to better understand what you are excited about and what you enjoy. Talking about your fantasies can also be a way to reduce stress and pressure by realizing that other people may have similar fantasies. Finally, it can be a way to discover new things to try with your partner and to spice up your sex life. It is important to note that everyone has the right to decide with whom and under what circumstances they want to talk about their fantasies of course!
Discover the prostate and its pleasure
Anal sex is quite taboo in general and it is not to mention discussing anal sex (or anal pleasure) with a straight man. However, there are many benefits to discovering anal pleasure when you are a man! It is therefore obvious that this trend, correlated with communication, will tend to develop in 2023. The prostate is a gland located in men just below the bladder and in front of the rectum and it is even The famous G spot for men ! Discovering the prostate can be a pleasant experience for some men and may even help alleviate prostate problems such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The prostate can be stimulated by back and forth movements in the rectum and can be reached using fingers or a sex toy specially designed for this use. It is also important to discuss this activity with your partner and to respect their boundaries and preferences.
