Sexual Intercourse Positions Guide

We will present to you the most well known sexual intercourse positions. Let us be your sex position guide as to what features make each sex position unique and fun.

One thing to try and remember is that when trying any new sexual position, the man should gradually insert his penis into his partner and should begin slowly until both partners have gotten comfortable with their bodies and the new sex position.

Missionary Sex Position

The missionary sex position is the most common position for intercourse in the western culture. The missionary position derived from Christian missionaries in the nineteenth century who considered it to be the only "proper" position for intercourse. These missionaries tried to convince foreigners to adopt this sex position claiming it was not "animalistic" like many other sexual positions.

Missionary sex position is when the man lies on top of the woman while both partners face each other. He gets between the woman's legs and penetrates with his penis while using his hands or elbows to hold up a portion of his weight and for motion in this position.

The man on top position (missionary position) can be pretty versatile in which you can alter into a variety of sex positions. Some people enjoy this sex position because they feel it is intimate as they can look into their partner's eyes.

If the woman positions herself just right, she can easily reach orgasm by the man's pubic bone rubbing against her clitoris. If the woman wants deeper penetration than what the missionary position typically offers, the man can raise the woman's legs and then pull her forward.

Woman on Top

Many couples prefer the woman on top sex position. A lot of people like this position because of the limited effort that is necessary. Many women like this sex position because they can control how deep and how hard the penis can penetrate. By varying the positions of the body while on top this can cause changes in the angles of penetration; the woman can then frequently enjoy better stimulation of the clitoris.

In this sex position the woman can kneel or squat over her partner thus changing the position. She can also face her partner or face away from her partner. A squatting position allows the woman to use her calves as well as her thigh muscles for motion and stimulation. This sex position is great if either partner wishes to stimulate the woman's clitoris.

Lying on Your Side

This sex position is best for a woman who likes to masturbate during intercourse. It leaves her vaginal area fully open to be touched. Many women find this to be the easiest position in which to use a vibrator while being penetrated from behind.

Some couples find that more body to body contact occurs while spooning on their sides, allowing them to feel more connected to each other. A lot of men also find they can last longer in this position because the strokes aren't as strong. It is not possible to easily enjoy a long stroke, but a deep stroke works quite well.

This is an excellent sex position for intercourse when the woman is in her last few months of pregnancy, as long as you are careful and don't go too deep.

Experiment a little with this sex position; try it with the woman's upper leg up or down. Try penetrating in slightly different angles. You can find that there are many different sensations using this sex position.

Standing up Sex Position

In the standing position one easy way is to have the woman bend over. This way the woman's vagina is accessible and the man will find it easy to penetrate deeply. If the man enjoys being a little more physical, then this position is a good one. The man ends up using more energy standing than lying down or sitting.

While the man stands the woman can sit on a desk, dresser or any surface sufficient for penetration. The woman can pull her pelvis forward and her legs apart at the edge of the surface. This sex position allows the man complete control of his thrusts. Also, the woman can control the angle that the penis enters her by shifting her hips giving her a much better orgasm.
