Are you tired of a vanilla sex life with your partner and are looking for a way to spice things up? You may want to go slow, as the world of kinky, alternative sexual preferences is vast and understandably scary. In that case, temperature play might be an excellent kink to consider. With this kink, you can either cool it down or heat things up as much as you’d like. This will take your sexual experience to a new level.
In this article, we will talk in detail about this fun sexual activity. We will first answer, “What is temperature play?” and then discuss how to experiment with both cold and hot temperatures. We will also give you tips on igniting your passion with this kink.
Defining the Kink: What Is Temperature Play?
If you’ve never heard the term before, temperature play can be a hard nut to crack. You may wonder, “Does it involve continuously adjusting the AC in the room during foreplay?” You may imagine ice cubes, cold water, warm water, even fire. Well, it does involve those. Let’s dive deeper.
Temperature play refers to a range of sexual activities that involve creatively manipulating temperature sensations. We know that may sound like something you don’t want to explore at first. You might wonder what kind of sexual pleasure that could possibly give. But no need to close your mind. For some people, the contrast between hot and cold can be erotically stimulating. Cold sensations, heat, or even burning may turn your partner on.
Because of the manipulation of temperature involved in this kink, it requires a great deal of caution. After all, you don’t want to burn your partner or freeze them mistakenly. But when you do it well, playing with temperature can be an adventurous way to bond with your partner.
Below, we explore how to experiment with both cold and hot temperatures.
Freeze or Tease? How To Experiment With Cold Temperature
Most people agree that cold sensations are relatively more bearable than burning ones. So, when experimenting with cold sensations, you may feel more thrilled than anxious. That’s a great start. But it’s not so much fun when you are clueless about what to do. Below are a few ways to experiment with cold temperatures.
Seductive Ice Cube Teasing
One way to explore this kink is to do a brief session of seductive ice cube teasing with your partner. This is ideal because it’s necessary to go slow while testing things out. You can massage your partner’s nipples, neck, or inner thighs with an ice cube. Or ask them to do it for you. If you enjoy this, you and your partner can progress to going down on each other with an ice cube.
Remember, this is all about pleasure, so stay calm and enjoy the experience. Don’t push your limit, as that can overwhelm you. And let your partner know when you want to stop.
Chilling Sex Toys in the Fridge
If you and your partner didn’t have sex toys before, you should consider getting one now. For the task at hand, it’s best to go for glass or stainless steel ones. Glass and stainless steel sex toys are great because you can easily put them in the fridge before the sex. Imagine a nice cold dildo or anal plug gently massaging your insides. Words may not be enough to describe the feeling.
You should be careful, however, to avoid potential accidents. Use smooth, non-porous toys and clean them thoroughly before and after play. It is also important to test temperatures often during the session to avoid extremes.
Using Cold Foods
Food can also come in handy during a temperature play session. Cold foods like ice cream, popsicles, and so on can cause a thrill in the bedroom. As with the others above, it is best to approach with respect for your partner’s preferences and boundaries.
Sparking Desires: The Ultimate Guide To Playing With Hot Temperature
While playing with cold temperature is relatively safe, hot temperature is a different story. When there is fire involved, things can go terribly wrong. So you must know what you’re doing to avoid costly accidents. Below is a brief guide to help you experiment with hot temperatures.
Erotic Warm Oil Massage
Massages are great, but have you tried an erotic warm massage? Imagine warm massage oil dripping down your naked back slowly as you get a sensual massage. Your senses will no doubt rise to great heights. This is the pleasure of playing in hot temperatures. Heat has a way of firing up our senses, and when used well, it can leave us asking for more.
Explore the Pleasures of Self-Heating Sex Toys
Another way to explore hot temperatures during sex is to use self-heating toys. The warmth can relax your muscles while intensifying arousal and sensitivity. Of course, it is important to be careful to avoid extremes. One way to achieve this is to communicate with your partner.
Erotic Wax Play
You can also try out erotic wax play. Here, massage candles come into play. You can drip hot wax from them onto naked skin, causing heightened pleasure. Massage candles, unlike regular candles, are specially designed to burn at low temperatures. This makes them ideal for a situation like this.
Playing With Fire Cautiously
Yes, you can also experiment directly with fire. Experts call this fire play. Fire play involves bringing fire close to your partner’s naked body. How close the fire gets depends on your partner’s preference. Some people want you to tap their skin with the flame lightly. Others may prefer you to light them up mildly. Playing with fire is dangerous, so you must take extra safety measures. Wet towels, a fire extinguisher, and water should be handy when exploring fire play with your partner.
Igniting Your Passion With Temperature Play Pro Tips
When exploring this fun but potentially dangerous kink, it is important to prioritize fun and safety. The following tips can help you get the best experience:
- Prioritize communication. This is important because playing with temperature may involve crossing your partner’s boundaries. Let them tell you how far you can go and when to stop.
- Start slow; you don’t want to overwhelm yourself by rushing things.
- Try out different techniques. You’re trying out playing with temperature in the first place to spice things up. Don’t get too used to one technique.
- Also, prioritize safety. Things can quickly go out of hand, especially during fire play, so being prepared is important. Be gentle, have a safe word, and have enough wet towels and blankets around.
- Finally, drink enough water before and after play to stay hydrated.
