Guessing you feel the same? :biggrin1:
I meant I loved the phrase. It's such a great phase.
I sometimes walk around feeling unfulfilled, but that's mostly because I don't have a regular partner.

I'm finding this really interesting. I've experienced a similar feeling with strangers who eventually become friends (and I always end up remembering the moment we met with perfect clarity, even years later), but have never experienced it in a sexual sense.
Okay, so the experience is not unique and that makes me feel more normal, but it also sounds like while there may be some similarities, the experiences are also very different for each of us. Now we just need to find someone who knows what this is, what causes it, and what it means.
I'll go out on a limb saying that I'm pretty sure men and women feel horny differently.
Having attended enough swing parties and observing the men and women, and being surrounded personally by up to four males at a time, I would say that men and women are not only experiencing different sets of physiological sensations, but are expressing them VERY differently.
But what would I know?

Thanks MoneyForNothing, adrenaline makes total sense now that you've mentioned it. I appreciate your help in sorting this out for me. The electrical shock feeling comes first; the other responses follow immediately after the "shock".
Since adrenaline is involved that makes me wonder if maybe it's some kind of imbedded prey instinct? Maybe I recognize the male as someone I would take to my bed and feel surprised or threatened by the shock of his presence and what I'd like to do with him? Although this is the first time I've ever thought of it that way... and I'm not sure that theory would explain the “shock”, as its not mental the feeling truly is physical although certainly my brain triggers it.
It could be anything. It could be completely irrational. Especially if it hits you unexpectedly. As I said elsewhere, acute stress is known to cause sexual arousal. It could be somewhat unrelated to the attractivenes of the man. Based on my experience with that, I'm guessing you feel an intitial suprise and then start to feel turned on some time later.
As for the shock feeling, current running through muscle just makes it contract and you feel more in that tissue because muscle is highly innervated. You are probably getting some kind of sudden muscle contraction from surprise. I was chasing a mouse in my kitchen. He was running toward me and the instant he saw me he popped straight up 2 feet in the air.
To the posts above me, females react physiologically differently to stress, which tends to go hand in hand with situations where you are turned on. Men go more into fight mode, whereas women go more into love mode.
What "few observations"? These are all found in lab experiments. Whether or not you understand how it manifests for you, some researchers found that oxytocin goes up in women under stress in acute cases, which does not happen in men.
You are just being a scientist, my precious! :biggrin1:Don't hate me for critical thinking ;-)
If it were merely certain physical features it would probably happen much more often because I see many very attractive men, but it's not that. It's always been a mystery to me why I have such a strong reaction to certain males and whats up with the electric shock therapy that is triggered?
