Most Sensitive Body Parts in Men and Women
In terms of sex, one of the things that can stimulate you and your partner is the stimulation of certain parts. You might think that the most sensitive part of the body in women is the clitoris, while in men it is the penis. This is not entirely wrong, but it turns out that according to research there are several other body parts that can also be stimulated to increase your arousal and your partner.
The most sensitive body part in women
A study conducted at the University of Montreal Canada related to which parts of the body in women are sensitive to stimulation. Research published in Journal of Sexual Medicine this was done on 30 women aged 18 to 35 years. Determination of which body part is the most sensitive is done based on three ways, namely touch (touch), pressure (pressure), and vibration (vibration).
The parts of the body in this woman are divided into three, namely:
- Primary genital zone: consists of the clitoris, labia minora, vaginal margin (the part that is at the end of the vaginal opening and before the anal canal), and the anal margin (the lower part of the anus where there are muscles anal sphincters)
- Secondary sexual zone: the outer side of the breast, areola, neck and nipple.
- Neutral zone: consists of upper arms and abdomen or abdomen.
The research was conducted by asking women to lie down and be covered with a blanket. Then each part of the body will be stimulated using the prepared instruments. Researchers asked participants to rank the level of sensitivity of each area after being stimulated. Stimulation was carried out for 1.5 seconds and 5 seconds after which the researcher would ask whether the participants felt the stimulation given.
The results of this study indicate that different areas turn out to be different stimuli that must be done to increase female arousal. When done with a light touch (light touch), the most sensitive parts are the neck, upper arms, and vaginal margin. When applied pressure (pressure), the most sensitive parts of the body are the clitoris and nipples while the less sensitive parts of the body are the sides of the breasts and abdomen. When stimulated by means of a vibrating or vibrating method, the clitoris and nipples are also sensitive parts of the body.
Based on this research, the genital part is the part that responds positively when stimulated using the vibration method. But as a whole, if it is based on the division of the area, the secondary sexual zone which consists of the sides of the breasts, areola, neck and nipples is the part that is most sensitive to vibrational stimulation or vibrations. The results of this study are expected to provide further explanation for which parts are most sensitive in women. However, this study cannot be used to generalize that the most sensitive parts of the body are the same in all women. You and your partner remain free to explore which parts of the body you think are the most sensitive.
The most sensitive body part in men
Researchers surveyed 793 men and women in England and South Africa and asked them to rank them from 1-10 (10 for the most sensitive body parts) for certain body parts. In men, these body parts are:
- Ears: 4.30
- Back of the neck: with a score of 4.53
- Part of pubic hair: with a score of 4.80
- Perineum (the part that is between the anus and scrotum): with a score of 4.81
- Nipple: with a score of 4.89
- Nape: with a score of 5.65
- Inner thigh: with a score of 5.84
- Scrotum or scrotum: with a score of 6.50
- Mouth or lips: with a score of 7.03
- Penis: with a score of 9.00
It is not surprising that the penis is the most sensitive part of stimulation in some men. But other parts such as the neck, for example, are also quite sensitive to stimulation. Gloria Brame, Ph.D., a sex therapist, as quoted by Women’s Health said that stimulation in the neck area can send signals to the circulatory system so that it can improve blood circulation. In contrast to the scrotum or testicles bag. This section is surrounded by tissue that is already sensitive and coupled with nerve endings located in it, making the scrotum one of the most sensitive parts of the body in men.
These studies are expected to provide insight into the most sensitive body parts for both men and women, thereby increasing sexual satisfaction when you and your partner have sex. But don’t just stick to the research results because the most sensitive parts of the body are different for each person. Take this opportunity to explore your and your partner’s favorite body parts.
