11:30: Zoom meeting, 12:45: coitus, 1:15: devour leftovers. Sounds like a jam-packed day, no? Have you ever thought about scheduling sex the way you schedule your one-on-ones with your boss?
“Working from home gives people the option to ‘take care of themselves’ throughout the day,” says Johanna Rief, the head of sexual empowerment at Lovehoney Group (which owns Womanizer, the first brand ever to use contactless, gentle air pressure to stimulate the clitoris. Impressive, no?). “For so many people, a midday orgasm is a great way to find relief, so actually being home with one's bed and toys and maybe even partner(s) makes a lunchtime pleasure session so much more appealing.”
Remember when a small Swedish town advocated for weekly paid sex leave in 2017? They were *way* ahead of their time. Now, the pandemic (and WFH) has given us the opportunity to squeeze a lot more into our days, whether it’s a YouTube dance workout, lunchtime shower, or yup, you guessed it, a midday sex sesh. Lots of women are even masturbating on company time. This is productivity at its finest, folks!
There’s just something super hot about an “I-need-you-now” quickie, when you have literally 30 minutes in between your meetings. There’s just not that same urgency if you wait until bedtime and you’re exhausted from the day. And trust us, we get it: scheduling sex sounds like a real lady boner killer, but getting freaky at 1 p.m. might just be the hottest new trend.
So, what are the benefits?
“Masturbation is a great form of stress relief that also produces happy hormones,” says Rief. “It can help to refocus and recenter, so that you can really dive into your next task. It is also meditative in some ways, as it can clear your mind and get rid of those thoughts that would typically slow you down during the day. It also helps to ensure you actually take your lunch break. When working from home, it is really easy to just heat up lunch and eat it while you continue working, but masturbating during lunch means you are walking away from your laptop and actually taking a moment to clear your head.”Help! I’m scared about my boss blowing up my Teams in the middle of my sex sesh.
“First off, definitely move to a room that does not have your laptop in it,” says Rief. “You don't want to feel rushed by the continuous dings of emails and Teams chats. Clearly mark your lunch break on your calendar, so that people know you aren't available then and, therefore, you won’t be interrupted mid-climax. Put your phone on DND (do not disturb) to minimize the chance of interruptions. Lastly, just remind yourself that you are at home. No one can see you or has any idea about what you are doing. And to be honest, your coworkers are probably doing the exact same thing.”
How else can I maximize my lunch break boink?
“If you still want to enjoy lunch during lunchtime, prep your food so that it can be cooking while you're masturbating or having sex,” adds Rief. “If you are worried about not finishing within the time constraints of your lunch break, add some stimulants, such as porn or erotica to help get you in the mood. You can listen to steamy erotic stories while you work to build the anticipation for lunch time.”Give me all of the toy reccos.
“The Womanizer Premium 2 is always my top recommendation for a solo session,” says Rief. “It's incredibly quiet, so you will still be able to hear your phone ping if you’re waiting on a timely response or update on a project. It also has the Smart Silence feature, which makes the toy go into standby mode once it’s no longer touching your skin, so you can easily turn it off in case any unexpected work calls arise. Additionally, the patented Pleasure Technology has been proven to make users orgasm very quickly—another reason why it's a great option if you’re pressed for time.If you’re looking for an option for penis-owners, we recommend the Arcwave Ion, which also uses the patented Pleasure Air Technology to stimulate the frenulum (the sensitive underside of the penis). It also has the Smart Silence function and comes in a sleek, discreet charging stand that could easily be mistaken as a smart home device, making it a great option when working from home.”
