Lingerie and handcuffs are so vanilla.
Couples are done with role-playing and skin-tight latex; Fantasies nowadays are much kinkier, according to a salacious Bumble survey on the most popular proclivities.
To determine what turned people on over the past year, the dating site surveyed over 4,000 people on their favorite fetishes, the Daily Mail reported.
They found that many previously popular kinks — feet, latex and role play — are so 2000 and late.
In 2024, continuing after climax was the number one fetish among couples, Bumble found.
To wit: Coming in second behind persisting post-orgasm was getting frisky on an open-air balcony — a trend that’s supported by the myriad instances of alfresco intercourse we’ve seen in recent years.
Get out your XXX-box as the third biggest turn-on was having sex while playing video games, something that redefined toying with the joystick.
This was followed by waking someone up with fellatio, per the survey, which found working out in the nude was the fifth most popular fetish.
Of course, not all generations are getting freaky in the boudoir.
For instance, unlike their Gen X and Millenial brethren, Gen Zers preferred comparatively staid sexual activities with cuddling taking the top spot.
Following close behind were at-home spa pamper days, “hanging in a hotel bathtub with a tremendous view,” and going at it in the shower. Coincidentally in 2023, many Zoomers rated lengthy showers way “hotter” than having sex.’
Gen Z respondents were shier about employing sex toys between the sheets.
Just 43% of those surveyed said they’d be open to it, which contrasted starkly to Millennial and Gen X respondents, 54% of whom claimed they were using synthetic hanky panky enhancers.
If that weren’t traditional enough, Zoomers were twice as likely to report plain old “missionary” as their favorite position compared to Millennial and Gen X users.
Overall, the favorite sex positions were kneeling (74%), face-to-face (72%), right angle (70%), cowgirl (59%), and oral sex (56%) respectively.
The least popular hanky panky poses, meanwhile, were doggy style (53%), sixty-nine (52%), and anal (50%).
