Hi, I just wondered how successful people have found the man kneeling while the lady is laid down, I really like being stood up while she's laid back but nothing is at the right height!! I've seen positions where the man appears to be on his knees(with legs wide apart to get low).
Is it easy to thrust, and how about lining everything up, how tricky is it getting the height right?
Thanks for any advice!
Hi Map, do you mean you kneeling on the floor while she is on her back on a table , bed, sofa etc?
Or do you mean you're both on the same level?
We like 'face down doggy' - the woman lying flat and the man on knees and extended arms behind her, it's a very relaxed position for her and he can thrust hard. It also looks good in the mirror and in photos!. You both have to work together to get him in, it is possible to get tinto he wrong orifice!  It is actually great for people of different leg lengths.
We also like the traditional 'both kneeling' doggy, and the female kneeling on the bed / male standing on the floor style, or both standing on the floor. Have done that latter in a swimming pool (NOT a public one!) which was lovely!
Thanks so much for both replies; just to clarify my post, I mean having her lay on her back on the bed, whilst I'm kneeling, this position is pretty much it http://sexpositions.club/positions/209.html (If the link doesn't work please google "the captain sex position")
It is much better as shown on the picture in your link, when the man controls her feet/legs. Otherwise the legs can be a tangle which bugs him and sometimes I'll pull him out by accident, wrapping my feet around his and straightening my legs.
Ahh ok, didn't know it had a name but yes that definately works!
Its a DP position, we use it quite a lot. It can be quite energy intensive for me so we find that if she holds something (like the headboard) and flexes slightly at the stomach, tilting her hips forwards it has the benefits of
A) Allowing me to hold both ankles in 1 hand freeing up the other to stroke her clitoris.
B) Provides a fantastic view of what's going on during sex.
C) Means im stroking her G spot.
D) increases the kneeling height slightly.
E) reduces the risk of me over flexing her hips if I get a bit carried away.
I find that kneeling in a W position (legs open, knees down, bottom near or near the floor can be quite wearing on the hips and thighs so slight elevation as explained above can be a real benefit, if you partner doesnt have much core strenght you can always use pillows or sometimes we experiment with a lve chair.
Its a great position though because you can rotate it with a bit of practice to sideways, then doggy then back again without having to withdraw.
I wish you luck with it!
Thanks so much for all the replies, they're great, I'm looking forward to giving it a try :D
I do this often, sometimes I then go up on my feet/toes
The "captain" as I guess this is called according to the link is one of my favorite positions. I can thrust quite hard and I think it is more comfortable for both parties. I'm significantly larger than my O-H and it gets my weight off of the top of her. Also it is fun to have her ankles up around my neck. Great position.
I didn't know this was called the "Captain sex position" but it is the position in which my wife, more often than not, have sex. Sometimes she'll put a pillow under her bottom which aids deeper penetration.
It's a great position.
