People are finding out they could be taking part in ‘auralism’ bedroom trend without even realising

Is it even a trend if you don't know you're doing it?

Apparently, plenty of people are just figuring out that they've actually been taking part in a viral bedroom trend while having sex, which calls into question whether it's really a trend if nobody knows they're doing it.

It's entirely possible that people have basically just been doing this already but now someone has come up with a snazzy, pithy name to slap on it.

This one is called 'auralism', and it now joins the pantheon of other bedroom trends that people might partake in when their relationships reach the point of doing the no-pants dance.

Other hallowed entries in that pantheon include 'sploshing', which is a wet and messy fetish where food and drink are introduced to the bedroom and often applied to people's bodies for good measure.

'Gooning' has grown in popularity, though perhaps that's just the term and not the practice, while there's all sorts of other things going on in bedrooms that people want to try.

You've only got one life so you might as well get as much pleasure out of it as possible, so long as you're not hurting anyone one else (at least not without their consent) over it.

Fill your life to the brim with all the kinky sex stuff you've always wanted to try because you don't get another go, unless of course you're part of a religion which believes in reincarnation in which case you might as well enjoy all of your lives.

As for whatever on earth 'auralism' is, according to Metro it's a sort of blanket term for lots of sound-based sexual stuff in the bedroom.

Some people get aroused from sounds and there are various things you can do to make the most of this, which would mean you're partaking in 'auralism' even if you'd never heard the word before today.

Even just a bit of basic dirty talk in the bedroom counts, communication is really important for good sex but sometimes you're talking just to turn each other on.

Beyond letting your partner know what's good and what you'd like there's plenty of things to say, and 'millions' are into things like a 'praise kink'.

Everyone likes to be told they're doing a good job, don't they?

Another very popular aspect of 'auralism' is ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response), which a lot of people find to be a mixture of soothing and stimulating.

There's lots of non-sexual appreciation for ASMR, but sex expert Gigi Engle told Metro that 'people do get really turned on by it' and it 'activates that arousal when you hear the whispering and the saliva'.

So now you know a bit more about 'auralism', and perhaps your life has been enriched by this gaining of new knowledge.
