Is there anything better than finding the perfect song to set the mood? It doesn’t matter if you’re running, working, chilling, or sexing, there’s always a playlist for your vibe—and 9 times out of 10, that playlist makes everything better.
While it’s likely you already have your Spotify playlists perfected, one area you might be skimping out on is the solo sex songs. Because I don’t know who needs to hear this, but listening to music while you masturbate enhances the hell out of your orgasms.
I know, I know, a whole masturbation playlist might seem a lil overkill, especially if you’re the type to just go at it while watching Netflix. But just like music helps with other facets of your life, an expertly curated mix can get you in the right mindset for a truly transcendent masturbation session.
In fact, according to data by PlusOne, nearly 36 percent of women already listen to music while masturbating. Which means it’s time for the other 64 percent of you to open your eyes (and legs?) to the world of a musically enhanced climax.
So because we care about you and your orgasms, we've done the work of curating the perfect masturbation playlist. Full of new hits, old bops, and sexy classics, there’s no going back after you’ve dabbled in the art of musical masturbation. Enjoy!
