When orgasm triggers a light show - The first ever study of synaesthetic sex
"The sexual synaesthetes described different perceptual sensations for different stages of sexual activity from arousal to climax. Initial fantasy and desire triggered the colour orange for one woman. As excitement built for another participant, this went together with colours of increasing intensity. With excitement plateauing, one person described fog transformed into a wall. Orgasm was then described as the wall bursting, "ringlike structures ... in bluish-violet tones." The final so-called resolution phase was accompanied for another participant with pink and yellow."
Wow! Regular sexual experiences are so intense already, imagine having a rainbow of shapes morphing around you at the same time. It sounds amazing to me but the study found that it actually makes people fee disconnected from their partners who don't share their experience. I guess the solution for that is to have all the synaesthetes make out with each other. Right?
