You’ve probably heard of the Kama Sutra—you know, the ancient text reputed to infuse your sex life with spice, sauce, and sensuality. But likely, what you’ve heard about the Kama Sutra is skewed. “Contrary to popular belief, the Kama Sutra is not merely a sex manual packed with kinky positions for lovemaking,” says sex and relationship educator ​​​​​​Barbara Santini. It also covers topics like mental well-being, platonic relationships, and nature. 

You may be turned on by a person’s feet, toes, or ankles — every foot fetishist is different. Some folks are turned on by seeing feet, others are aroused by touching or massaging them. Some treat the fetish as a form of erotic degradation — they submit to someone by kissing and worshiping that person’s feet (or, in more extreme play, being kicked and/or stepped on). For many, a foot fetish goes hand-in-hand with a fetish for certain footwear (like high-heel shoes).

Between Lollipop by Lil Wayne, Work It by Missy Elliot, and My Neck, My Beck by Khia, it seems no sex position is as sung about as oral sex—and for good reason. Full of orgasmic potential for the giver(s) and receiver(s), oral sex is one of the most intimate, pleasure-rich sex acts there is.
