Foreplay is probably one of the most misunderstood words in the sexual vocabulary. In fact, when some men hear the word foreplay, they still think of golf instead of sex. But slowly and surely, the male population is learning that foreplay is as important to good sex as using a 9-iron is to good golf.
In its simplest form, foreplay means the touching and caressing that goes on between two people just before intercourse. Foreplay helps both partners experience the physical manifestations of arousal necessary for sexual satisfaction.
Foreplay shouldn’t take place just in the two or three minutes before you and your partner have intercourse. It should begin hours, if not days, before you plan to have sex.
According to my philosophy, not only must you extend foreplay as long as possible when the two of you get into bed, but you should begin foreplay for your next sexual experience as early as the afterplay — the caressing that goes on after sexual intercourse — of the previous sexual encounter.
To be clearer about the difference between what’s considered standard foreplay I’d like to separate, for a moment, the physical effects from the emotional effects of foreplay, especially regarding the role they play in women’s arousal levels. People usually think of foreplay as a simple cause-and-effect mechanism, setting the stage for intercourse to take place from the physical point of view. Exciting both partners so these physical manifestations of sexual arousal take place is the minimal role of foreplay.
Because a young man can get an erection simply by thinking about the lovemaking that’s going to take place, his version of foreplay can be just walking into the bedroom. That will change as he gets older, but because most young men don’t know what the future holds for their ability to become aroused (and in the heat of passion don’t much care either), many of them grow impatient and try to make foreplay last as short a time as possible.
You men out there have to stop thinking of foreplay as something that happens only under the covers. When you realize that everything you and your partner do together can be thought of as foreplay, I guarantee you that your love life will improve.
