The
Lure of Lingerie
By

Men stand in the doorway of Victoria’s Secret and
drool over it. They ogle silken garments in your underwear drawer. So what’s
the allure of lingerie? I explored this question and here’s what I found.
Women’s bodies are a marvel anyway, but slip into
something that leaves—or doesn’t leave—something to the imagination and your
man will fall at your feet. It’s like garnishing an already delicious dish. Men
love a show, and the visual addition will amp up your sex.
Dressing up for hot sex especially in an established
relationship can add new spark to your lives. Reviving your sex life with
lingerie is something many couples try—and succeed at. Whether you’re
role-playing with costumes or simply sliding into a new negligee, your man will
definitely thank you, and you’ll reap the benefits of your creativity.
So what are the top pieces of lingerie? According to
a study in “Ask Men” magazine, these are the little bitties that rev their
engines:
Chemise—a short, slinky nightie worn with nothing
underneath will titillate his senses. Add the tempting treat of you sans
panties and the decadent feel of silk or satin and you’re asking for an amazing
encounter.
Babydoll—made to enhance a woman’s breasts, these
little numbers are just what men want.
Teddy—a garment that opens at the crotch turns every
man into a rabid animal. And believe me—you want him to be.
Camisole and Thong—these go together like bread and
jam. Give your lover a terrific view of your backside, while still playing
peek-a-boo with your other parts.
Push-up Bra, Garter Belts and Stockings—these are
erotic accoutrements every man has fantasized about at one time or another. And
women, who knew that you could feel so sensuous and powerful in so little?
When writing erotic romance, I often forget about
the foreplay that can be achieved by adding a sexy wardrobe to the scene, but
now that I’ve spent some time inside a male’s head, I know I’ve got to give my
heroes what they want—lingerie!
Do you own any lingerie? If so, what pieces are your
favorites? And if not, what would you love to purchase? Personally I’m dying to
own a corset. Something about the classic hourglass figure in a racy red color
excites me…
