Just as ordinary touch nerves on a woman's arams, legs, breasts, and abdomen becomes erotically active when she begins to feel aroused, similar nerves in the genitalia help to build male sexual excitement. There are no such nerves in the tip section of the penis, which contains only the types of nerve fibre usually sensitive to pain and to temperature. The foreskin, shaft of the penis, and scrotum are very sensitive, however, and respond keenly to light touch.

Touch nerves quickly get used to sustained pressure, so that stroking, patting, and other forms of active caress give much more stimulation than indolent fondling. Gentle stroking along the top and sides of the penis, tracing patterns with the fingertips down from the penis to the scrotum or the crotch, and very light raking these areas with smooth fingernails prove quite effective. Light, rapid drumming motions with the fingertips along the sides, top or bottom of the penis shaft sustain male excitement very well.

A similar somewhat gentler motion stimulates the scrotum without disturbing the tender structures within it, and is especially effective when applied from beneath or behind so that the testicles move gently inside. A little later, you can pinch up a bit of thin scrotal skin and roll between yourt thumb and forefingerm or use the same motion with the thin surplus skin of the penis shaft. For ocasional variety, press the penis against your husband's lower abdomen with the flat of your palm and roll it quickly but gently from side to side.

Most couples find it hard to stimulate the penis lightly and with constant movement by rubbing it with a thigh, lower abodomen, or hip. Such action sometimes proves possible by using deliberate muscle quiver instead of friction, however. When an embrace presses the erect penis agains the wife's thigh, for instance, she can make the muscles of the area ripple by alternately straightening and bending her leg slightly, or even by alternately pressing her foot agains the mattress and relaxing. Similar action with the muscles of the hip or lower abdomen sometimes adds a few moments of variety to nude or simi-nude embrace.

The wife cannot continue such movement for very long without undue fatigue, howeverm and motionless embrace will not sustain male excitement. Light touch and rapid movement certainly can be imparted with the lips, mouth and tongue. Such caresses offer substantial range of variety in sex play and can greatly enliven couple sex life, provided you can overcome certain barriers and constraints.
