As a part of some interesting discussions sparked on the random dating chat rooms, one of the users asked how blind people sense intimacy or sexual attraction towards someone. I got dizzy for a while. This is actually something that my brain never discusses with anyone. Meanwhile, a lot of people weighed in and a series of answers came onto my web window. The answers were pretty satisfying and I have given thought to some answers and articulated in here in this post.

  1. Beauty doesn’t actually link to the conventional parameters of beauty:


    While observing the parameters of beauty, everyone has their likeness behind it. A user stated that (after talking to a blind wife) “voice is the major trait she looks for”. This may be a blunt way to put it but to touch the curves of a body is not the primary thing that appeals to her. From her perspective, “her husband is a handsome man and she knows because he talks to her and she talks to him.”

  2. The scent of a Body (works for turn-on or turn-off):


    A friend of a blind person wrote that “He doesn’t like girls who bathe in colognes and use scented bath products.” For him, it is the best chance to give him a headache. Body odor has its own smell and that works as s big turn for him. You can also refer to a movie named: “The Scent of a Woman” for more information about how blind people remember smells. Some amount of distraction happens too with the breath and the skin, junk food is the enemy of the good smell and somehow also junks the pores of the body. The smell is important but it can tell a lot about the person even before he or she speaks to you. And obviously, different parts of the body has their own smelly structure – from hair to face and beyond.

  3. Sex feels great when you’re blind:


    Have you tried BDSM or have you seen BDSM porn or anything related to it. You’ll see blindfolds for the intimacy. I was watching one of the episodes of Intimacy Coach and she actually presented this blind-folding exercise to the couples. And guess what, it actually worked. Blindness in sex activity helps to enhance the touch of the partner, smell them, and sense the vibrations through the touch. Blind people actually sense intimacy through this activity.

  4. Presence is Tangible:


    One of the users typed on the webpage that blind people sense the presence of their partner across the places or in toom and they still feel connected to them as if they are touching them. The sound of feet, the sound of anklets, and doing something in the home make them feel comfortable and connected. The sound of breathing, flick of a hair is actually amplified by the concentration. If you are not blind, just close your eyes and concentrate on these things, you’ll feel connected to the partner with this meditative skill that blind people have naturally. Close your eyes and listen carefully.
