WEARING socks during sex has long been a contentious subject. Some say it’s a lazy turn-off, others just want toasty toes.
Love Island’s Curtis Pritchard reignited the debate after keeping his ankle warmers on during a steamy ‘sex’ session with Maura Higgins.
Meanwhile, a Dutch study found wearing socks during sex makes women more likely to orgasm.
When they tested 13 couples aged 19 to 49, they found just half of women were able to climax during intercourse when they were barefoot.
But when they donned socks to get frisky, the number increased to 80 per cent.
Plum Lea, a 22-year-old estate agent from Maidenhead, Berks, refuses to get intimate with boyfriend James Thomas, also 22, barefoot.
She’s even invested in a special pair of ‘sex socks’, admitting they make her orgasms more intense.
She told Fabulous Digital: “I’ve always worn socks to bed and, even when everything else comes off during nookie, my socks stay firmly on.
Some people say it’s a turn-off but for me it guarantees a mind-blowing orgasm. I know if my socks aren’t on I won’t be getting turned on.

I always have cold feet – even in the summer my feet are like blocks of ice.
I’ve tried sleeping without cosy footwear but my poor fella James suffers.
He ends up yelping and jumping out of bed because I’ve slid my cold tootsies between his legs for warmth.
Socks solve my cold sex feet problem. I’m not distracted during sex worrying about why my feet are cold or accidentally touching James with them.
Covered tootsies means all my focus is on myself and my partner so we can chase the big O together.
Socks make me feel more safe and secure. They make me more adventurous and want to try different positions.

I prefer to wear pop socks not ankle ones or knee-length numbers.
My pops give me extra grip and traction if I’m trying a standing position or one which requires bracing myself with my foot.
That extra traction helps both James and I increase the intensity of our love making.
You don’t want to be slipping over in bare feet and losing your momentum.
SOCK SEX VS SOCKLESS SEX: THE RESULTS
When we had sex without socks on, I took 11 minutes and 18 seconds to orgasm. James orgasmed almost immediately after me at 11 minutes 24.
I would rate my orgasm as a four out of 10. James rated his orgasm as an eight out of 10.
When we made love with socks on, I felt more excited from the beginning.
I orgasmed at six minutes 39 seconds and it was intense. I came twice the second time at seven minutes 49 seconds. James orgasmed at six minutes 57.
I rated my orgasms as a nine out of 10. James rated his at a nine out of 10 as well.
We tried standing positions with our socks on and I believe feeling confident enough to try those positions, and not being worried about slipping, helped increase our orgasms levels, sexual excitement and that’s all due to socks.
Women can find an orgasm harder to achieve than a man. I know socks make my orgasm easier to achieve, faster to get to and more intense – and the research backs it up.
Without socks I’m thinking about my cold feet, trying to multi task and work out why they’re cold, how to get them warmer without ‘freeze feeting’ James and making love.
No girl wants to think that much about socks during love making. It’s why I’m a sock on girl and proud.
When I first met James, he was shocked at my sock wearing obsession.
When I pulled out a special pair of clean socks just to wear to bed he thought I was really odd.
When I left them off to make him happy and rubbed my feet on his leg for warmth he soon realised I was serious about cold feet being a sex distraction.
I also believe sock sex is better than sockless sex. Rubbing my clean socked foot up and down James legs or tickling his boys bits with my covered toes can be a turn on for us both.
I always make sure I wear fresh socks, not ones I have been wearing all day.
People think wearing socks to bed is a turn off because they assume they’re smelly and dirty – clean sock sex is mind blowing.

I carry a pair of sex socks with me everywhere just in case James and I decide to get adventurous.
He also knows if I come to bed not wearing socks then I am not in the mood or there is a problem.
So sock on means yes, yes, yes and socks off means no, no, no.
I like to try and match my socks to my underwear or lingerie – sex socks can be fashionable, too.
James sometimes wears socks but only if it’s very cold. I do like the feel of his socks on my legs. It’s erotic and sensual.

James told Fabulous Digital: “I have become a convert to sock sex. Initially I thought her sex socks were odd but now I’m quick to tell her ‘put them on right now!’
It definitely helps with traction and gripping. Plum likes the feel of socks being rubbed up and down her legs.
I think blokes often just jump into bed without putting on a fresh pair of socks on and that’s why wearing socks get a bad rap.
