Uxoriousness ~ Aphrodisiacs from A to Z

Image Source
Uxorious* (uck-SOAR-ee-us) is an adjective meaning to be "...doting upon, foolishly fond of, or affectionately submissive toward one's wife." (Source) The bottom line, Gentle Readers, is that showing affection to either spouse, on a regular basis, can be a powerful aphrodisiac.

*I know, I had to drive around the block a few times to find a "U" word for my theme, but it works. (Well, it works for me, anyway.) (Plus, we all know how lazy I am, so...)

Y U SO SEX-AY?
That chemical, "certain something" will attract us to our partners and, as they endear themselves to us, we find ourselves wanting to do for them, don't we? Too, being shown affection frequently makes one feel secure, beloved, and I can't think of a better foundation for sexy intercourse in a committed relationship than those two feelings right there.

  2. Uxorious is a new one for me. I don't think I'd mind a bit of dotting upon, as along as I could return the attention. (:

  3. Creative "U" but I love it. It works and I love when my hubby drunkenly floods me when kiss up remarks. hehe

  4. I'd have searched half of forever for that six-bit word, but hey, it works! And it does produce that chemical, the action not the word. Ain't no doubt about that!

    1. I spent some quality time with my dictionary prior to the challenge, or I'd not have found it. :-)

  7. Definitely a new word, and one that's rarely performed around my house...

  8. Morticia and Gomez certainly fit the label!

    I've found that some of that attention may be a powerful aphrodisiac or sad to say a most definite and complete turnoff! :)
