Positions - The X Position

Positions - The X Position Very deep penetration with this one – so much so that some experts recommend it for conception.

On ejaculation the penis is positioned right at the opening of the cervix thereby shortening the distance the sperm has to travel.

To do this the woman has to lift her knees up to her chest and hook them over the man’s shoulders – this allows the man to easily press his pubic bone against the clitoris. X marks the spot.

Positions - 69 (Soixante-neuf)

Positions - 69 (Soixante-neuf) Is this a position or isn’t it? Well, although it doesn’t involve actual ’sex’ per-se, it’s a hot favourite.

Both partners give and receive oral sex – cunnilingus and fellatio at the same time. By necessity, a figure of 69 is described with one partner kneeling above the other facing the other way. Potential problems with this position include a lack of concentration. Many people find it difficult to continue giving oral sex whilst being stimulated orally. The more determined of the two will probably come off better in this case.

Positions - Wheel barrow

Positions - Wheel barrow The man enters from behind (she should either have very strong arms or lean on something) and then lifts her up by the upper thighs or pelvis. She also can wrap her legs around his waist.

Bear in mind that this is quite an athletic position and also has much comedy potential. It’s also useful for collecting leaves from the garden and putting them on the compost heap although doing this during the daytime is not to be recommended. The very adventurous could even have wheelbarrow races at parties but do check with the other people there before attempting this!

Positions - Woman on Top

Positions - Woman on Top In this position the man relinquishes control to the woman who can decide on the angle and depth of penetration, and he gets to lie back and enjoy himself.

This position can also help the man control his orgasm but make sure that penetration occurs only once he’s rock hard. Lowering yourself onto a semi-erect penis can cause it quite some damage.

In this position, both his hands are available for whatever purpose seems right (and there’s lots you can do with them) and although women might not be keen on the idea of their breasts wobbling around in front of someone, you can be sure he’s very pleased about it.

By leaning backwards, women can achieve G-spot stimulation and do not necessarily have to face him. If you do want to face his toes, let him know you’re about to turn before you do it or start that way. A surprise turn may just twist things too far!
