Numerous women claim one of the best sensations is getting into a clean bed. One woman says she loves the silky physical sensation of the sheets feeling a bit stiffer, especially after a shower with freshly shaved legs.

Another made me laugh out loud by confessing, “I call that sexy cricket time ’cause I can never stop rubbing my legs against each other under the sheets.” I’ve never called it that, but I do it, and now I’ll always think of this comment. It is the most incredible feeling.

2. Sneezing Tingles

Do you know that fizzy feeling in your nose, building up to a great sneeze? A woman explains, “It gets fizzier and fizzier and then -! Sneeze!!” That is a physical sensation countless women agree to enjoy. On the contrary, it’s one of the worst feelings when it builds up and doesn’t deliver.

Someone playing with your hair, brushing it, running their fingers through it — is the greatest feeling. One notes, “I could let them do that all day.” Me too! I’m fortunate to have a toddler and a teen who likes to brush my hair and a husband that gives me scalp scratch tingles. This right here is the best.

14. A Back Massage
