When it comes to pleasurable activities, lots of people have the same top choice: having sex. Physical intimacy with a partner, whether you have an orgasm or not, can feel amazing — but not everyone agrees that it’s the *most* pleasurable experience. Many people think other things actually feel better than being sexually intimate with someone.
Women on Reddit opened up about some of the things they think feel better than sex. While some of the answers are predictable, like going to a massage or getting some well-deserved shut-eye, some of the responses are a little less common. Here’s what the commenters had to say:
