Jigsaw V1

This position is perfect for super-satisfying clitoral stimulation, controlled by her. Heighten sensitivity of the clitoris and nipples with the lickable Lovehoney Oh! Cherry Orgasm Balm.

How?

He sits on the floor, arms back and knees up. She jumps on top, balances on her knees, then brings her feet to rest on his knees.

Why?

With her legs wide and all her weight pressing down on the whole of the vulva, there’s maximum friction on the clitoris and area surrounding the urethra.

Try…

She can rock back and forth, using the shaft of his penis and groin to effectively masturbate herself to orgasm.

Make it even better…

Wearing open cup lingerie means easy access for nipple stimulation as well as offering him a thrilling view while she rides him.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Not the position for you?

We’re working to make sure that everyone is represented on our website, regardless of who you love, so we’ll be using a variety of gender depictions in our Position of the Week posts. This will include straight, gay, lesbian, and gender neutral couples, but all positions will have details in the description of how to make them work for your own relationship dynamic.

The Pillar

This position is slightly more challenging for him, but it can be made a lot easier with an over-the-door sex swing.

How?

He sits on the edge of the bed and she climbs on top. He then slowly stands up, supporting her weight, her toes on the bed for balance.

Why?

This is a great position to try if he is a lot bigger than her.

Try…

Doing it against a wall. She has something to lean on – and feels lighter so he can hang on for longer.

Make it even better…

A couple’s vibrator like the Annabelle Knight Wowza! Silicone Vibrating Cock Ring will add thrilling sensations for both of you.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Mermaid V1

This position is great for G-spot targeting, and as her legs are tightly closed, it will make her feel tighter.

How?

She lies flat, he kneels and lifts her bottom to penetrate. She puts her legs over his shoulder.

Why?

His penis is in line for a direct hit to the front vaginal wall, the highly sensitive area where the G-spot lives.

Try…

Change the angle of her legs and try leaning them on different shoulders. Tiny angle alterations help to hit the spot.

Make it even better…

An inflatable sex position ramp will lift her pelvis for you, allowing you to hold the position longer for maximum enjoyment.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Head Over Heels

This position is little bit of a challenge, so make sure to use a sturdy chair with no arms, or a sofa.

How?

She starts by straddling him, then puts her calves on his shoulders and carefully leans back, him holding her middle.

Why?

The view is pretty amazing from his perspective; she has an ‘inverted orgasm’ because the blood is rushing to her head. We feel the sensation of orgasm in our brain as well as our genitals.

Try…

She can increase pressure on his penis by squeezing her thighs and buttocks together.

Make it even better…

She could try using a blindfold. By depriving yourself of one or more senses, the remaining senses become heightened which could lead to a more explosive orgasm. (Make sure you remove the blindfold afterwards to get back on your feet slowly and safely.)

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Tip to Toe

Any woman-on-top position ups her chances of orgasm because she’s in control.

How?

He lies flat, she squats and climbs on top, facing his feet. After penetration she leans forward, putting her legs behind her.

Why?

She can press her clitoris against his groin and rock her way to orgasm.

Try…

He’s in the perfect position to wedge a small(ish) vibrator in between the two of you for hands-free fun.

Make it even better…

Her bottom is also in reach for exploring anal play with an anal prober or anal beads, or indulging in a little light spanking.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Space Hopper

This position allows her to control the pace while he lies back, enjoying the view.

How?

He lies back, she faces away from him and gets on top.

Why?

He gets off on watching her ride him. Plus, he has a prime view of her bottom! The angle makes her feel particularly tight.

Try…

She can put on a floor show and play with her breasts or clitoris.

Make it even better…

His hands are free to pleasure her from behind. With the Lovehoney Remote Control Vibrating Butt Plug, he can set the speed or pattern that sends her over the edge.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Hammock

Feel like you’re flying without joining the Mile High Club! This position is a bit of a challenge, so make sure he is sat on something sturdy before you begin.

How?

Facing in the same direction, she lowers herself onto his lap to be penetrated. Then he leans back and she leans forward until lying almost straight. He holds onto her wrists, she digs her heels into his back for balance.

Why?

Because it’s tons of fun to try, though harder than you think, to thrust.

Try…

If it all gets a bit too much, he can pull her back onto his lap relatively easy.

Make it even better…

Sexy lingerie that showcases her bum, like the Lovehoney Wild Romance Basque Set, will make for a very enticing view for him. (Available in UK sizes 10-16 and 18-24)

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Corkscrew

A little bit of an unusual angle for sex, The Corkscrew is a great position to try if you want him to last a little longer.

How?

Start in the usual him-on-top position, then he uses his forearms and feet to swivel himself into position.

Why?

The ‘corkscrew’ effect feels good for both but difficult intercourse positions distract his brain from focusing too much on how good everything feels.

Try…

If he keeps falling out, swivel until you’re angled to more of an 'X; shape with his feet and legs closer to her feet.

Make it even better…

A couple’s vibrator like the Tracey Cox Twin Silicone Vibrating Love Ring will give him gentle constriction (keeping him harder for longer) while offering intense vibrations for her.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Hot Seat

This position is great for achieving G-Spot orgasms as she is in control of the pleasure. Make sure to use a sturdy chair, or even better – a large sofa.

How?

He sits, she climbs on top, feet flat on the chair, arms on his shoulders.

Why?

His hands on her upper thighs help her thrust but she’s the one in control of the angle, speed and depth.

Try…

The same position but her facing the other way; she can alter the angle of penetration by leaning back or forward and putting her knees down or up.

Make it even better…

Wearing open cup crotchless lingerie during sex will give him exciting visual stimulation. We recommend Lovehoney Boudoir Belle Quarter Cup Bra Set (available in UK sizes 6-16) or Lovehoney Plus Size Rendezvous Open-Cup Body (available in UK sizes 18-24).

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Voyeur’s Delight
(see also: Yogi)

If he (like many of us) is someone who really appreciates the view during sex, then this is a great position to quickly bring on that big O.

How?

She lies back, he gets between her legs, picks her up and holds his hands under her bottom.

Why?

She’s laid out in front of him so he has peak visual stimulation. Most men are turned on more by what they can see than what they feel.

Try…

Add to the eroticism by talking dirty, taking turns to tell each other your darkest, sexiest fantasies.

Make it even better…

For more comfort for her, and to help hold the position for longer, wedge a sex position cushion under her back.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Sexy Yoga

Positions where she is on top means she’s in control of the speed and depth of penetration, and ultimately – her own comfort and pleasure.

How?

She lowers herself onto his erect penis, feet on the floor either side. Once penetrated, she lifts one leg at a time to cross her legs.

Why?

It stops him pulling back and thrusting too deep which may cause discomfort or pain if he is on the bigger side. Instead, she rolls her hips and bottom in a circular motion.

Try…

She can lean forward, back or sideways to control how deep he thrusts and where on the vaginal wall he’s targeting.

Make it even better…

Clitoral, testicle and penis thrills are all yours, rolled into one explosive, climactic package with the Tracey Cox Supersex Rechargeable Vibrating Love Ring.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Raunchy Rider

Let her take the reigns in this position, where she is in charge of the movements and he just comes along for the ride. Giddy-up!

How?

He gets into position, hips lifted and balancing on hands and feet, she climbs on top.

Why?

Unless he’s very strong, this only works as a quickie, but it strongly appeals to women who like taking control.

Try…

Use it to play out a mistress-slave role play fantasy.

Make it even better…

To achieve and maintain this position for longer, try the Bondage Boutique Sex Position Enhancer Chair to support her weight while offering satisfying bounce.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Cover-Up

With your bodies intertwined and plenty of eye contact, this is a great position to help you feel closer to your partner.

How?

He sits, she lowers herself onto his lap. Both keep their upper torso close and cuddly.

Why?

Most men are visually stimulated and this position stops him focusing on intimate areas which can tip him over the edge too soon.

Try…

Break up the session and make him last longer by taking oral sex breaks: if we’re losing control, he stops to give her oral.

Make it even better…

Add a beaded butt plug (for him or her) and a couple’s vibrating cock ring for a plethora of nerve-tingling sensations.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Misson Impossible

If you and your partner are of significantly differing sizes, positions like Missionary can be somewhat of a logistical challenge. This position allows better alignment for sessions you’ll both love.

How?

He stands behind, she holds onto the chair and pushes her bottom high so he can penetrate.

Why?

Standing positions work well for couples of differing weights because no one’s lying on top of anyone. Holding onto a sturdy chair provides good stability.

Try…

He’s shorter? Pull the chair closer and get her to lean on the seat on her forearms.

Make it even better…

With his hands supporting her hips, and her hands holding onto the chair for support, hands-free toys like a strap-on clitoral vibrator or butt plug will add another exciting dimension of sensation.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Leg Lift

A snuggly, cosy fit for you and your partner, the angle of this position also offers lots of stimulation for both of you.

How?

She lies back and puts her feet on his shoulders. He holds her bottom and penetrates.

Why?

The position of her legs make her feel tighter and also allows deep access so he can penetrate fully.

Try…

Vary it by her pulling her knees closer to her chest or wrapping them around his back for deeper penetration just before orgasm.

Make it even better…

A sex position cushion like the Liberator Sex Position Wedge will allow you to hold this position more comfortably, and for longer.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Jockey

As she has full control of depth and thrust, The Jockey can be a more comfortable position for her if he’s on the larger side.

How?

She straddles him in a ‘cowgirl’ position. He then puts her in charge of thrusting by supporting himself on his arms hands and keeping one leg bent.

Why?

Positions where her legs are spread wide work if he’s thick as well as long – but only if she’s in control of the depth of penetration.

Try…

He should enter a little at a time and stop every inch to allow her muscles to relax around him. Penetrate from different angles to see which feels most comfortable.

Make it even better…

A blindfold for him will mean she has complete control. It may also mean his remaining senses will be heightened for mind-blowing sensations.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Up Against It

This position is great for a quickie and can be adapted by the use of a sex swing or a sturdy countertop.

How?

She jumps up and wraps her legs around his waist, he manoeuvres her so that her back is against the wall.

Why?

It’s perfect for drunken hallway sex when you’re both so desperate you can’t even make it to the bedroom.

Try…

Leaving clothes on and merely unzipping and pulling knickers aside makes it more exciting.

Make it even better…

It can take women a little longer than men to build up arousal, so with quickie positions like this one, make sure to use a good quality lubricant.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Tight Squeeze

She is in complete control in this position which means she can adjust pressure and stimulation to make him last longer.

How?

He sits and leans back on his arms, she lowers herself onto him, then leans back on her arm, using her feet to balance and thrust.

Why?

From this position, it’s easy for her to reach down and squeeze the base of his penis firmly for a few seconds, which can delay ejaculation.

Try…

Stopping thrusting while you both lean forward to kiss. It’s sexy but offers less intense stimulation.

Make it even better…

A vibrating love ring offers gentle constriction for him for enhanced erections and delayed gratification, while delivering tingly thrills to both of you for extra pleasurable playtimes.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

The Right Angle

With the deep thrusting this position allows, coupled with the extra friction her closed legs create, this is position will have him finishing in record time!

How?

From missionary, she puts her feet onto his shoulders, making it easy to access his bits with her hands.

Why?

She can easily reach around to hold the base of his penis, pulling his foreskin back for maximum sensitivity.

Try…

She can also cup and massage his testicles: a sure-fire orgasm trigger for lots of men.

Make it even better…

Send him right over the edge by wearing open-cup lingerie for exciting visual stimulation.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).

Table Top

Yes, this position is actually possible, but you do need bloody strong arms, legs and buttocks to hold it.

How?

Start with him sitting with legs straight and her on his lap. Both rest your weight on your arms first, then lift bottoms high.

Why?

If you spend hours getting in shape at the gym – this is the position that shows off all that hard work.

Try…

Lowering your bottoms to the floor when you feel yourselves collapsing but leaving your hands in the same position.

Make it even better…

With all arms and hands being used to hold the position, a butterfly strap-on vibrator and nipple suckers will add those extra thrilling sensations.

Non-hetero?

This position can be adapted for female-female couples with the use of a strap-on dildo. It’s also a great position to try for anal sex (and add a male masturbator into the mix if the receiver has a penis).
