The jellyfish
Ask your man to kneel down while you crouch over his lap facing him. With your arms round each other for support, get him to work up a rocking motion, moving apart and together in unison.
Why it’s good: “It’s intimate yet the angle is just right for deep or shallow penetration. Depending what sort of mood you’re in, your breasts move against his chest, giving you extra stimulation.”
Reverse cowgirl side-saddle
He lies on his back with his knees bent and legs apart. You get on top with your back to him, but, instead of straddling him, you have one leg between his, with one hand on his chest and the other on his shin. You can then rock back and forth or move up and down as fast or slow as you like.
Why it’s good: “This might take a bit of practice, but it’s great for deep penetration. Plus, you can just see each other fully."
The vixen
You sit on a counter and he stands facing you with his arms around your lower back. You then put your hands on his shoulders and he slowly raises your right leg and props it on his left shoulder, then he raises your left leg and props it on his right shoulder. He can either hold you close against him or you can lean back. For a slightly less acrobatic version, you can tilt your pelvis up and wrap your legs around his waist.
Why it’s good: “Whichever version you choose, the angle of this position is intimate and perfect for G-spot stimulation.”
The skewered hurdler
You do all the work here but you get plenty of rewards. Your man lies back on the floor, leaning against a sofa or bed for support. You then straddle him in a sideways split, resting your hands on the floor to allow you to control your bouncing. He can assist by putting his hands on your hips to help you move up and down if you start to feel tired.
Why it’s good: “It’ll drive him wild, but you’re in control and can set the pace of thrusting and grind against his thigh all at once. Meanwhile, he’s got easy access to caress your breasts and clit in-between thrusts.”
Front-row seat
You lie on your back and lift your legs up and over your head as far as they will comfortably go. Once you’re suitably stable, your man squats on top, slides in, and then alternates sitting back on your buttocks with leaning forward to thrust inside you. As you near climax, he can lean forward to rest his weight on his hands, deepening penetration. Naughty but oh, so very nice! Feeling flexible? Good –this position beats downward dog any day!
Why it’s good: “This move makes the most of every inch of your man. It’s also great for G-spot thrills and gives you easy access to caress his balls and perineum.”
Push me, pull me
There’s a reason that tantric sex has been written about for hundreds of years – and this position is all the proof you’ll need. You’ll both be moving from upright to flat on your back, and then back again, giving a delicious variation of angles. Start by facing each other, sitting cross-legged with your man inside you. Hold hands for balance and take turns slowly leaning all the way back and then gradually sitting up, taking your partner with you as you move.
Why it’s good: “You’ll find the sensations intense and deeply stimulating. It also allows for plenty of eye gazing and kissing, along with varied angles.”
The skier
He lies on the bed with his buttocks at the edge of the mattress, legs in the air. Start by lying on top of him with you back against his chest and your pelvis above his, then slide onto him. You should then gradually sit up and lean forward, taking it slowly to make sure you don’t bend him the wrong way. Once you’re sitting up, slowly lower your legs onto the floor, and then rock back and forth as desired. He should keep his legs raised the whole time, allowing easy access for you to reach between your own legs to stroke his penis and balls. He can rest his legs against your back if this proves too hard on his thighs.
Why it’s good: “It’s great for hitting your G-spot because you can angle him wherever you want him. And if a guy’s a little too, er, blessed, you can limit penetration levels too.”
The bookshelf
Stand in front of a wall and place your hands up against it. Get your man to stand behind you as you raise one leg up until your thigh is resting against his torso. You can push against the wall to squeeze yourself back against him. Voilà! Deeper penetration in seconds.
Why it’s good: “This is penetration that’s as deep as you both want it. Your muscles will tighten as you raise your leg, increasing friction for both of you.”
Crossed wires
It might sound tricky but this is surprisingly easy: lie on your back and get your man to lie across you to make a cross shape. He then puts one leg underneath your legs and the other one on top and slides in. You can flex and release your pelvic floor muscles to heighten sensation for both of you. Because of the unusual angle, it’s worth using lots of lube to ensure the friction works in the right way
Why it’s good: “This position exposes the sensitive clitoral hood, enabling either of you to stimulate it easily.”
The backflip
This takes core strength and flexibility but is simpler than it looks. Start with him standing up facing you. You then jump up to hook your legs behind his hips and slide onto him. Then lean back until your hands are touching the floor, and your man thrusts away. You can brace your hands firmly against the floor to allow for more vigorous thrusting.
Why it’s good: “This gives a real stretch for you, helping you flex your back muscles and relax. More important, it will make a thin but long penis feel as if it’s thick and filling. It’s also great for hitting your G spot and giving him an unparalleled filthy view.”
