It is present in many areas &#8211; from barefoot running to various eating styles like raw foodism or the Paleo diet. So it\u2019s only natural to extend it to sex.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Stone Age Sex<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A famous phrase wonders if a bear shits in the woods. We could likewise ask if our ancestors fucked in the woods. Well, they sure did; in woods, caves, and even around open fires.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s plenty we don\u2019t know about Palaeolithic people, but what we do know is that <\/span>they likely lived in tribal communities of around 25 members highly dependent on each other and each others&#8217; resources.<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Many scientists even believe those early societies were to some degree <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/female-led-relationships\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">female-dominated<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or gender-egalitarian. Also,<\/span> they were very unlikely to be shy about sex and strictly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/monogamy\/\">monogamous<\/a> in a two-people-exclusively kind of way.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we follow the sexual footsteps of our cave-dwelling ancestors, there are many <\/span>simple ways in which we can spice up our sex life to make it more lively, natural, and spontaneous<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. So, let\u2019s do it like they did it in Altamira caves. Here are some ideas:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>1. Be fit in crazy and functional ways.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can\u2019t expect to have a great paleo-sex experience if you are a worn-out couch potato to begin with. <\/span>Your body wants to run, jump, hike, climb, roll on the ground, and hang off trees<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as well as do all the other stuff regular Stone Age folks had to do every day in order to get by. <\/span>Be versatile and crazy with your body and it will reward you with some great sex<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. And no, you don\u2019t have to have a visually &#8220;perfect&#8221; body by modern-day standards, just be playfully active.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2. Take it out of bed.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s be clear about one thing\u2014<\/span>beds are a great place for sex; they are warm and comfy safe places that are both sexy and perfectly designed to be the primary center of our love life. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s just that<\/span> they shouldn\u2019t be the exclusive place for sex<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a simple reason\u2014being perfectly exclusive about anything is just too finite and narrow-minded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Try outdoor sex and different surfaces.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every surface has a different feel; soft or hard, warm or cold, smooth or rough\u2026 Each quality can be exciting in its own way, so make sure to give them all a try. And <\/span>taking your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/9-ways-explore-exhibitionism-public-play\/\">sex outdoors<\/a> will give it a new and mind-blowing dimension<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> you just have to experience. There is even a theory that direct <\/span>contact between skin and ground heals our bodies<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (it has a great name&#8230; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Earthing<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). As for having sex under the open sky, hopefully, I don\u2019t have to explain its charm to our open-minded readers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>4. Sex next to a fire is spectacular.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dim, playful light, the smell of burning wood, the feeling of warmth against bare skin protecting it from the ambient chilliness\u2026 <\/span>There\u2019s just something primal about having sex next to live flames that touches on the very essence of our animalistic eros<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The dominant theory is that our affinity for fire lies in protection and cooking; I just think it was irresistibly sexy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>5. Try sex in front of spectators.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The fear of being seen making love is definitely a product of an advanced civilization and is very hard to explain to people living in more natural societies<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. There\u2019s a multi-billion industry based solely on the fact that watching other people have sex produces joy and excitement. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/enjoying-the-view-experimenting-with-voyeurism-in-a-relationship\/\">Being watched while having sex<\/a> can also be a great source of joy, but perhaps <\/span>what gives one the greatest sense of freedom is not having to give a damn if anybody sees you doing it<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. That being said, make sure to find an appropriate context<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0and do not force other people to watch you have sex if it offends them. Because regardless of everything, we are not actually living in a Stone Age society.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>There\u2019s a World Outside of Strict Monogamy<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While a fully <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/is-an-open-relationship-right-for-you\/\">open relationship<\/a> is definitely not for everyone, <\/span>consensually bending the strict rules of monogamy can feel empowering for both partners in a relationship<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. We can also take a lesson from more recent natural societies; many of them were\/are not strictly monogamous but are endogamous, meaning they are quite relaxed about having some side action as long as it stays within a trusted group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To have a group of people you are close enough to share the ultimate intimacy of love is a rare gift in today\u2019s individualistic society,<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> even though such experiments do not always end well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you want to discuss this issue with your partner, <\/span>keep in mind that some people are just truly wired for monogamy<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and that for them even opening the subject equals to a controlled demolition of the basic structures of relationship. So, tread very carefully when moving in that direction.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rewilding is a sexy idea that gets sexier every day.
