Armpits

The armpits might not spring immediately to mind as an erogenous zone. Some people do fetishize them, but the vast majority of us associate the armpits with hygiene or the lack thereof. They are the home of odors and hair and must be kept clean at all costs.

Both the odors and the presence of hair point to the erotic potential that lies hidden in the armpit. While the armpits are not orifices, the hair evokes the genitals, and frottage (rubbing) in a well-lubricated armpit can be very exciting (and safe) for both participants, evoking intercourse without any actual penetration. It was a popular fetish in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

The armpits are also key perspiration points, where your personal scent and pheromones are highly concentrated. From this perspective, deodorants are a mixed blessing. Although they can mask the unpleasant smell of stale sweat, they also interfere with one of the most important and subtle components of attraction.

As we’ve discussed, smell is our most primal sense. It plays a very significant and underappreciated role in attraction and sexual excitement. By nuzzling into your lover’s armpit, you’re engaging that primal sense and turning yourself on in the process. People vary a great deal in terms of their sensitivity. For some, strong smells are intoxicating; for others, it may be best to nuzzle shortly after bathing. Whether you prefer your partner freshly bathed or a little sweaty, this is a great way build each other’s arousal.
