Touching yourself

by Tammy
(Australia)

Why do some women touch their neck and chest area when anything sexual is mentioned? It's like her body is getting warm and hot?


My answer:

When we are attracted to someone, blood flow will increase and our skin become more and more sensitive to touch. Clothing and jewelery will feel restrictive. If you are drinking something, you will take more sips, if you smoke, you will smoke more.

You will increasingly touch yourself more (especially your mouth, neck and chest area) because your skin feels ultra-sensitive and it is a great feeling. You will start playing/stroking with things (glass, matches, keys) as well as stroking yourself and even removing outer layers of clothing.

Without realizing, we are sending the following messages:

(1) I'm drawing attention to a certain area on my body by stroking it and,
(2) I'm teasing you and want you to touch me there.
