Fucking and Punching, a playlist you'll never forget - It's just science

Gone are the days when decades ago couples had sex in sad, sad silence. Pulling out that dusty old gramophone seemed like too much hard work, especially when they were about to get it on. But now, with playlists available at a click of a button, my mistake, I meant - on voice command, there is just no excuse to not have a sexy playlist instantly available.


Sadly, it turns out that many couples still do not share this radical idea of listening to music while having sex. Apparently, it's all too weird.

Luckily, science came to our rescue. Thanks to the study that was conducted by the McGill University, the results proved that these couples are probably just having shitty sex and should reassess their beliefs.

The study found that listening to music prompted the release of dopamine. You know that feel-good chemical which also gets released with good food, good sleep and... good S-E-X!

Double woohoo hoo, right?

So listening to the right music at the right time only enhances emotions, tweaks our feelings and boosts our senses thanks to that dopamine.

Ever heard a song that reminds you of that first kiss or romantic evening? Well, there you have it, it's all feel good stuff.

Associating music with sex or that romantic night out pretty much embeds its way into our memories, and gives him or her something to remember you by.

Then again, I could be making this shit up. But thankfully, science has my back - again.

In another study, conducted by the incredible McGill University, found that listening to the right music increases our arousal, including heart and breathing rate and... skin conductance.

More woohoo hoos!

When we say "the right music", we sort of meant it. The idea of making love while listening to the Punxsutawney Polka, may not be the "right" music.

Quirky beats aside, personally, a good-sex-playlist should be an essential accessory to any closed door event. Why not enhance physical sensations, increase sexual tension and at the same time, release all emotional undertones?

Ok, so you still don't believe me?

Well, it just so happened that Spotify also wanted in on the action, so they conducted their own study in 2012. They wanted to learn what songs we are listening to while we getting our freak on.

Led by music psychologist Daniel Mullensiefen, the study asked 2,000 people in the UK between the ages of 18 and 91 to share what favourite songs they like to listen to while having sex.

91? I know, right?!

Interested in this, a poll was published on TaintedGuava to discover what tracks are most favoured.

And the result? Well, ecstatic to find out that most of the top songs conducted from the Spotify survey, were already in the polls song choices. So, it was decided to share this and created a playlist to help you "Get it on":

The night I spent with a prostitute, eating chicken wings

Image
Eating chicken wings with a prostitute, hardly a euphemism but an actual evening that occurred, in yet another unexpected random London night. Anyone familiar with what sights and sounds Kilburn High Road has to offer, especially after dark, will understand and possibly appreciate the circumstances and events that could unfold when hanging about long enough.  Besides the wall to wall vomit and the familiar vagrant shouting, "hey bruv, got any change?" It wasn't unusual for me to have another adventure, except this night may have been the most interesting. With a dead mobile phone, I stood at the bus stop at 12 am waiting for that damn bus, which now and then gets cancelled or rescheduled for no reason, and this night was no exception. It's famous for being the most unreliable route. As I stood waiting and being lied to by the automated bus schedule, another 15 minutes went by. A woman approached the bus stop, she stopped to look at the signboard

'86, a good year for bad sex

Image
One of the perks of dating or seeking solace in the embrace of a younger lover is the exciting thought of being attractive to a younger model. Then there is the eye-candy factor; toned body, perky boobs, firmer bums, tighter... But there is a price to pay for all the aesthetics and appealing attributes, and that is enduring the risk of having really bad sex. It’s not uncommon to hear the gripes from a more mature demographic, both male and female, who openly discuss their sexual encounters about post-1986’ers, and laying out their complaints and grievances about “the youth of today”. Lack of imagination, terrible sex, poor effort, too “porny”, low stamina - are just some of the complaints. The sense of millennial entitlement overlooks the natural essence by adopting the attitude of bragging rights, self-obsession, the illusion of being a good lover and where having good gag reflexes is celebrated as an achievement. 1986’ers? Those that are born post 1986, which in today

The 'C' word

Image
Commitment, the stigma attached to this dreaded word which often gets circulated at the beginning of a relationship isn’t exactly getting easier with the emerging scourge of online dating apps. The bounty of desperate single people out there all looking to get laid or find the right one is also not helping the cause of being with the right person if the commitment isn’t at the forefront. The good news is, men aren’t the only assholes. Commitment issues are not entirely gender-specific as they were apparent before. Although men have generally been known to carry the blame of owning commitment issues, in all honesty, women are overtaking that statistic as they are becoming more empowered and more independent. The old practices of courtship no longer apply, encouraged by society and social norms by submerging ourselves into meaningless one-night stands, the pursuit of an emotionless “no-strings-attached” relationship and hoping to find fulfilment with another frivolous
