The Brain
The brain is by far the most erotic spot of the entire body. If you doubt it, consider how satisfying it is to fantasize and daydream. All too often, though, lovers focus below-the-belt. But paying attention to what's going on in your and your lover's head allows the two of you to stay connected in the moment and create an overall mind-body experience.
The Scalp
Giving your partner a head massage is one of the most sensual, soothing ways to seduce, show your love to or simply pamper your partner. Massaging the scalp helps lovers to relax and unwind together because it releases oxytocin, a stress-response hormone that produces a state of calm, especially in women.
i've never heard of oxytocin before. i wonder if that is why dogs and cats like to be scratched/petted on the head?
The Neck
People are very protective of this most intimate and sensitive part of the body, which is why neck play symbolizes two people's relationship as lovers. A gesture as simple as kissing your beloved on the neck before parting for a few hours reinforces your bond and can hint at more intimacy to come later.
never thought about the relation between protective body part and showing intimacy
The Ears
A person's ears can be really sensitive to touch and tone. So as you stroke, kiss and nibble on your partner's ears, don't forget the role of sound. Murmuring endearments, exhaling and making satisfied noises can reinforce attraction and adoration.
The Eyelids
Eyelids are easily one of the most ignored areas of the body. This is understandable since people are often fearful of hurting their partner in this delicate area. But sensory exploration of the eyelid -- kissing, brushing with your nose tip -- can be done without harm. A partner's trust in your ability to handle this area so lovingly is endearing.
The Eyes
When people first fall in love, they spend oodles of time gazing into each other's eyes. Considered by many to be the windows to the soul, the eyes signal love and sexual interest. This is one of the reasons why maintaining eye contact with your lover is a wonderful way to stay connected and feed each other energy.
The Nose
Breathing in through the nose helps the body to relax and focuses your mind. Also, the luscious smells found in essential oils, incense and scented soaps and candles are especially effective at leaving memory imprints. When reencountering that smell, a person is more prone to recall an intimate moment and the feelings that went along with it.
The Lips
It is important to always pay special attention to the act of kissing since it is one of the top ways to show love. Since some couples neglect locking lips after being together for a while, always strive to pucker up in order to take your pleasure up a level. Take turns being the active and passive kisser.
The Tongue
The tongue's wetness, warming effects and range of movements heightens its role in heating things up. This also includes its ability to taste. Offer your sweetheart an oral aphrodisiac: chocolate, mango, champagne or foods containing chili peppers. As you satiate your partner's appetite, don't be shy about offering a taste of yourself.

After reading that stuff it sort of made me think of how much we are like animals and react instinctly. but we take it to a whole other level..."love"
i've done most of these things will "making love" rather than just fucking a chick. but it was interesting (to me atleast) to read about why those things are nice.
