Intense eye contact can make you cum or have sexual arousal

 Introduction

Eye gaze is a rich source of social information. Much research has shown that gaze direction is particularly useful to understand where someone’s attention is focused (e.g., Friesen and Kingstone, 1998; Hietanen, 1999; Frischen et al., 

A study was demonstrated that arousal from eye contact is associated with the sending and receiving of gaze signals, and as the ability to also exchange gaze signals.

Indeed, humans have evolved to have eyes that are easily tracked, where our dark pupil is centered on a white sclera (Kobayashi and Kohshima, 1997).

This high contrast between the pupil and sclera makes it easy for others to decipher in which direction the eyes are moving. In fact, the Researchers showed that humans are as accurate as 1° of visual angle in determining others’ eye movements (Anderson et al., 2011). The high contrast of the eyes also attracts attention due to the complexity of the information the eyes portray. This attention-capturing effect of gaze has been observed from birth, with neonates preferring direct gaze over averted gaze of their mothers (Farroni et al., 2002; Senju and Csibra, 2008). In adults, looking at a photo of a person with direct gaze results in quicker processing of the face, as demonstrated by faster face detection (Senju et al., 2005)

The researchers further engagement with real person was shown to elicit different brain responses compared to an image/video. In multiple studies, Hietanen and colleagues used electroencephalography (EEG) to measure brain activity during direct versus averted gaze with a live person or a photo of a person.

The researchers earlier  believed that the significant enhancement of arousal observed in studies with live interactions is likely elicited by both sending gaze signals out (and the self-monitoring that goes along with that) as well as receiving gaze signals from others (and the interpretations that go along with that). Hence, their first prediction was that arousal will be enhanced the most when participants make eye contact because participants will be sending and receiving gaze signals. They also predicted that the sent-only and received-only trials will have a significant boost in arousal compared to the no-gaze trials, if arousal is associated with sending information.

By taking advantage of this, the researchers believed this to be the first study to show arousal as a function of time during social interactions.

Conclusion

The study demonstrated that arousal from eye contact is associated with the sending and receiving of gaze signals.
