Discover Your New Favorite Positions For Every Desire
We often approach our sex lives the same way we approach our favorite snacks: we stick to our tried-and-true favorites because we know they satisfy. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a classic, but sometimes your sexual "taste buds" crave something a little more adventurous.
If you are looking to spice things up, you don’t need an expensive getaway or complicated acrobatics. Here are 11 tried-and-true positions to help you explore new sensations, deeper connections, and more intense pleasure.
You Have To Know
Doggy Style
A classic for a reason. This rear-entry position is ideal for deep, intense stimulation for both vaginal and anal play.
Since you don't have face-to-face contact, try positioning yourselves in front of a mirror to watch your partner's expressions. A penis extender or sleeve can also add a bit of extra reach if needed.
The Lotus
Both partners sit cross-legged, with one on the other's lap and legs wrapped around them — designed for slow, synchronized breathing and deep emotional connection.
Since this isn't a high-friction position, wear a vibrating butt plug to stimulate your P-spot or internal G-spot, heightening intensity without needing to thrust.
Reverse Cowgirl
Saddle up facing away from your partner. This unique angle changes the distribution of pressure and lets the rider tilt forward to target the G-spot or prostate with precision.
A perfect opportunity to add extra toys — reach between your legs with a finger vibrator, or wear a jewel-based butt plug to enhance the feeling of fullness.
Missionary
Lying on your back with your partner between your legs creates the perfect setup for eye contact, dirty talk, and full-body closeness.
Place a sex wedge under the receiving partner's hips to adjust the angle for deeper stimulation. A vibrating cock ring or dildo adds hands-free sensation for both partners.
The Lazy Sixty-Nine
Forget the gymnastics — both partners lie on their sides facing each other in a "C" shape, making mutual oral play accessible even with a height or weight difference.
Keep flavored lubricant handy to stimulate taste buds and keep things slippery. If tongues get tired, a toy designed to simulate oral sensations makes a perfect stand-in.
Hard Press
A variation of Doggy Style — the receiver lies flat on their stomach with legs pressed tightly together, restricting depth and focusing sensation squarely on the G-spot or P-spot.
With legs pressed together, they provide extra tightness around the partner's shaft, creating a sensation of intense pressure many find deeply satisfying.
The Cowgirl
The ultimate position for the receiving partner to control depth, speed, and rhythm — straddle your partner while they sit or lie back and take full control of your pleasure.
Use a position-enhancer chair to support your knees, letting you sustain the motion longer without discomfort.
Edge of Glory
The receiver lies at the edge of the bed while the partner stands to provide penetration — letting the receiver fully relax while the giver uses the floor for leverage and rhythm.
If your bed is too low or high, a sex wedge or an over-the-door sling helps you find the perfect height for a comfortable, rhythmic pace.
Spooning
Perfect for slow mornings or post-play lounging. The partner enters from behind while you both lie on your sides — intimate, cozy, and low effort.
Add a kinky element with wrist restraints or a blindfold — spooning is one of the easiest positions to incorporate handcuffs if you want to keep your hands occupied elsewhere.
The Starfish
The receiver lies on their back with legs spread while the partner straddles them or reclines — fantastic for experimenting with angles that target the G-spot.
Use a cordless massage wand — the handle reaches easily while lying back, and the bulbous head provides a wide surface for incredible external stimulation.
The Pretzel
This variation combines the closeness of Missionary with the side-lying comfort of scissoring — one partner lies on their side with the top leg lifted, while the other kneels to straddle the bottom leg.
This position is all about friction and grinding — keep a high-quality, long-lasting lubricant nearby to keep things smooth and comfortable.
