Hi! I have a question, please. Sometimes I will have an erotic thought (especially if I'm looking forward to a sexual encounter) and it will trigger me to involuntarily stretch and make a loud, contented grunt. Kind of like you might do in the morning before getting out of bed, especially if you've slept really well. :mrgreen:

It feels really good. Can anyone explain to me what is happening here?

Hi phillyperson, what you are describing doesn't sound unusual or weird. It makes sense that your body would do that, there's no name for it or anything, it's just a bodily response.

Ok good, thanks Sofi. There should be a name for it, though. :)
