a very good and interesting question

i think that in the midst of the erotic,
we're in a kind of hyper-receptive state

so it's important that we're in a good environment

like
if you were having surgery done performed on you 
(your insides exposed to the breeze)
you'd be wise to be in a clean quiet place
and not some dirty loud crowded place

or you might pick up something you don't want

also
i think the erotic requires a kind of mental focus

so it's important there's no sudden distractions
to jar you and your loved one's state

like
if you were a pilot landing an aircraft
you shouldn't be watching television 

or you might miss something important

also
i think the erotic thrives in ease, not force

so it's better the environment doesn't push you,
better for your intensity to arise by itself

like
if you're going to pray
it doesn't help to shout
