According to society and the beliefs it has imposed on us, the single place where a man only wants to be touched is down there. However, that doesn’t seem to be true. In fact, there are a number of areas on the male body that are known as the erogenous zones. That’s right; it goes way beyond that area.
So, what exactly are erogenous zones? Well, according to independent.co.uk, the erogenous zone is the area in the human body that has heightened sensitivity, and when stimulated, it creates a sexual response.
Guys are less obvious in letting their partner know where they love to be touched, other than the most obvious area. So, it takes a bit of understanding and experience for the partner to really figure out which body spots are the erogenous zones. If you haven’t figured it out or are curious, keep reading.
