While sex might seem familiar, the truth is that it never stays the same. Every year, there’s a new trend or movement that completely changes the way people are having – and thinking about – sex.

This isn’t just about increasing the fun, either. Finding ways to change up your sex life can be very important if you are in a long-term relationship, as it helps to keep things fresh, exciting, and, most importantly, intimate between you and your partner.

So what are the latest trends to do with all things sex? We’re going to run through 5 of the most significant and how they could rejuvenate your sex life for the better.

Ending Erectile Dysfunction

According to recent statistics, as many as 48% of UK males suffer from some form of erectile dysfunction. While there are certain types of medication that can help with this condition, they do not work for everyone, which is why the use of penis fillers has seen such a massive surge.

According to the people who have had the procedure, penis fillers not only increase the length and girth of your penis, but also help to attain and maintain erections, which subsequently increases libido and fights against sexual-related anxiety.

Mastering Your Pelvic Floor

In 2023, more and more people are growing aware of how important the pelvic floor can be to increasing arousal and inciting more powerful orgasms. Simply by relaxing and exercising the pelvic floor – either during foreplay or solo play – both males and females can work towards longer, more intense sexual experiences.

Praising Like You Should

You have social media to thank for this next innovation. With over half a billion views on TikTok, videos with “praisekink” as a hashtag are growing more and more popular, mainly due to their ability to end sexual anxiety and build a more loving relationship between partners.

For those unaware, praise kinks involve turning on your partner with positive affirmations and praise. Doing this helps them to feel more secure emotionally and physically, which subsequently helps to create a more positive, emotionally satisfying sex life.

Emphasis On Outercourse

Speaking of connecting with your partner emotionally, it seems that more people are putting a stronger emphasis on outercourse rather than intercourse. According to recent statistics, only 18% of women orgasm from penetrative sex, but nearly 60% of women regularly masturbate. For partners who want to orgasm together, outercourse has become an even more significant part of the sexual experience in 2023.

Maintaining Mindfulness

Lastly, over the last couple of decades, experts have discovered strong connections between mental health and sexual wellbeing. For instance, one of the leading causes of erectile dysfunction is anxiety, which is an issue that over 20% of males struggle with. This is why sexual mindfulness has become so important.

This includes regular mind exercises that are designed to focus on sexual desire and wellbeing, helping to not only build stronger sexual experiences, but also ease anxious minds in the process. A person's mindset is key to good sex, so it’s essential that people work to nurture their mind and build a more positive mental attitude.
