Sexperiment Results: Do blindfolds make orgasms and arousal better?

In the spirit of all things spooky, Lioness users spent the month of October experimenting with pleasures they couldn’t see.

Here’s what the data says about blindfolds and orgasms:

A Quick review of the Lioness community poll & hypotheses

Before jumping into the Sexperiment, we wanted to get an idea of where Lioness users fell in terms of sight and masturbation.

Community Poll: Do you flick the bean with your eyes open?

For the first time ever, we had a tie! With only 14% of users reporting they never masturbate with their eyes open, the remaining 86% was equally divided between "Often” and "Sometimes.”

Hypothesis: Do you think being blindfolded will improve your orgasms

Lioness users were given the same three choices for this hypothesis as they always are: Get Better, Stay the Same, or Get Worse.

Here’s how they voted, with 55% of users predicting their O’s would Stay the Same:

Fun Fact: 5 out of the 7 sexperiments we’ve done so far have seen an overwhelming majority of folks hypothesizing their arousal won’t change. CBD and Edging have been the only experiments thus far where users thought their orgasms would improve. But in all seven experiments, data showed some element of improvement for arousal and orgasm — whether it was orgasm length, peak force, or star rating.

The Results: Longer Sessions, Stronger Orgasms

Lioness sessions tagged as "blindfolded” yielded some interesting results! Here’s what we found:

• Session length increased by an average of 35% percent, averaging about 10 minutes and 48 seconds in length
• Average orgasm strength increased by 12%
• Average peak force during orgasm went up to 66.7 gf versus baseline sessions that averaged 59.7 gf

This Sexperiment also found the average time to orgasm to 8 min 6 secs minutes (compared to 5 min 10 secs in baseline sessions).

The Conclusion: Blindfolds can make orgasms better

In a surprising turn of events for over half of Lioness Sexperimenters, blindfolds definitely improved orgasms and arousal from a data perspective. More time spent masturbating and stronger force during orgasm are just two indicators that perhaps there’s merit in covering your eyes during masturbation and sex.
