Exhibitionism

Lifestyle Glossary · play-dynamics

Exhibitionism in the lifestyle context refers to the consensual enjoyment of being watched by others during sexual activity. Like voyeurism, lifestyle exhibitionism is always consensual — all parties involved are aware of and comfortable with the arrangement. Exhibitionism is common at lifestyle clubs and play parties, where open play areas allow couples and individuals to engage in sexual activity in view of others. Many people find that being observed adds excitement and intensity to their experiences.
