This past year has been a lot for many Americans. We have been stuck inside which can force you to look at your life in a different way. Many are starting to feel that they are tired of the same old bedroom activities and are looking for ways to spice things up.
A poll done by MysteryVibe found that 4 out of 10 Americans are more open into exploring new experiences in their sex life. Actually, 46% of Americans in a relationship would like to mix it up in the bedroom but are afraid their partner will judge them. More men then women are interested in spicing things up (54% vs. 39%).
40% of Americans are intrigued by sex toys but are afraid of their partners reaction since sex toys have their own stigma surrounding them. The sex toys people are most interested in are butt plugs (27%), anal beads (24%) and whips (23%). Over half (56%) say they feel it is more socially acceptable for women to use sex toys then men. Dr. Soum Rakshit, CEO of MysteryVibe, said "Our goal is to make it easy for everyone, especially couples who have never used sex toys before, to reignite their sex lives without worrying about whether they will work for them or not."
Actually, 30% of people said that their sex drive has increased since the pandemic started. Americans are looking for other ways to get excited in the bedroom. 44% of people are just interested in trying new sex positions while 23% are interested in public sex. Other activities Americans are into trying are; BDSM at 22%, role playing at 21%, multiple partner/group sex 20% and phone or web cam sex at 15%.
A relationship deal breaker was found to be lack of sexual experimentation. 34% of men and 19% of women said they would leave a partner who is not willing to be open about new experiences in the bedroom. 57% of people in a relationship say they would like to improve their communication with their partner about their sex life but do not know where to start.
Dr. Soum Rakshit says "As we emerge from the pandemic, our study shows that people are more open to trying new things in their sex lives. However, they may find it difficult to bring up the subject with their partner, even though they too may be struggling to break the ice."
