It's a new month, which means it's time to try some new sex positions - or at least some spicy takes on the classics. Here are nine ways to spice things up in the bedroom!
The Crab
Similar to cowgirl, the Crab is a bit trickier because instead sitting up, the partner on top leans backs with their arms supporting your weight instead of your knees. If you're in a heterosexual partnership, make sure to go slow as sudden movements could cause strain on the penis! If you're partner doesn't have penis, definitely still give this position a go - either with or without a strap-on!
The Cowboy
[Disclaimer: This refers to a penis-owner/vagina-owner partnership]
The opposite of cowgirl, this position requires the penis-owner to straddle the vagina-owner from above and enter the vagina. The vagina-owner will most likely need to start with their legs wide with the penis-owner's knees between the vagina-owner's thighs. This position is great for increasing intensity & tightness. Some vagina-owners are able to reach orgasm more easily if their legs are clenched close together!
Absolute 69
This position is great for all gender and orientation partnerships. It's a slight variation of regular 69 in that one partner is directly on top of the other, facedown. You can also try adding a G-spot massager or even clitoral stimulation if you're feeling super spicy!
Victory
Have the vagina-owner lay on their back while the penis-owner (or strap-on user) holds their legs up in a V-shaped position while kneeling and thrusting. And it's called victory for a reason - it allows for deep, intense penetration, and potential orgasm for both partners.
Simple Scissors
Like regular ol' scissoring, this position is great for either two vagina-owners or a vagina-owner and penis-owner. Make sure you add some lube to keep it slick - and more intense.
Side to Side
Like the ultimate lazy-Sunday-morning position spooning, the side to side is a little more energized - and interesting. Instead of one partner having their back to the other, both face each other. It's still lazy but the face to face makes it more intense.
Arch
This is the position for deep penetration. Have the vagina-owner lay on their back (with a pillow under their head) while the penis-owner (or strap-on user) is kneeling. The vagina-owner will arch their back & lift their hips so they can be penetrated. If you want to add even more, try using a clitoral stimulator!
Fusion
Similar to crab, except the bottom partner is leaning up against a headboard, wall, sitting up or supporting themselves with their arms. The top partner thrusts up and down while facing them. This position is great for finding that perfect spot. Pro tip: Don't do this position after arm day or after crab!
Cross
This is an underrated, under-appreciated, easy, and super-pleasurable sex position. Lie back at a right angle to your partner, missionary-style, and curve your knees over your partner's torso or butt while they enter you. It's a great, direct angle for penetration!
