The body in all its frolics: hearing and enjoying it

THE SEX ACCORDING TO MAÏA

Erotic zones, erogenous zones: once we have mentioned the “usual suspects” (penis, clitoris, vagina, testicles, anus, breasts), we often only have room for a footnote. When some take all the light, the “other” pleasures seem anecdotal. It is unfair and, above all, it is a pity. Close-up, this Sunday, on the ear, the stimulation of which can lead to orgasm!

Technical sheet : organ intended for the harmonious framing of the face. Beyond this decorative function, there is debate: anatomists claim that the ear is used to hear, but couple therapists note that the ear is mainly used to not to hear.

Erogenous potential: Raised ! The ear appears at the 10e ranking position of our favorite erogenous zones (magazine Cortex, 2013). Let us immediately evacuate “the” absolute reference in the matter: the film Untouchables, which, in 2011, introduced the world to orgasm by stimulation of the ears. However, let us be careful not to confuse this tactile orgasm with the auditory orgasm, which occurs (although rarely) when hearing certain words or certain music. In the first case, we enjoy touching it. In the second, we enjoy through hearing.

Symbolic: What if little Jesus had been conceived by the ear? The idea seems absurd, yet it is present in Christian iconography and in ancient legends (see, for example, the articles by José María Salvador-González, University of Madrid). Besides the resemblance between the pinna of the ear and the vulva, the design per aurem allows to guarantee the chastity of Mary, which is all the same very practical. Beyond Christianity, we can mention the presence in the “auricular” erotic pantheon of sirens, whose voices and songs bewitch men, and women. bunnies of the magazine Playboy, whose rabbit ears evoke the supposed ardor of our lagomorph friends (yes, it is said like that!).

Practice : You can always try to penetrate an ear, like in the movie Scary Movie, but it may hurt … which does not prevent the curious from wanting to try the experience. So much so that America’s most famous sexuality expert Dan Savage had to remind his readers that semen can cause ear canal infections (this was in 2017 in the Chicago Reader). The safest thing will therefore be to stick to the preliminaries: licking, kissing, nibbling on the ear, while obviously making sweet words.
