If you suddenly have an itch to try some new sex positions, we're not surprised. When we recently surveyed 1,229 American men about their sex lives , a third of respondents said they're feeling more sexually experimental now than before the pandemic began.
According to Justin Lehmiller, Ph.D., Kinsey Institute researcher and member of the Men's Health Advisory Panel, stress could have something to do with the widespread craving for sexual novelty. "When we're stressed, it’s often harder to feel desire or to stay in the moment, because our mind is distracted and wandering,” Lehmiller says. “Trying something new can create this immersive experience that lets us be in the moment and raises sexual arousal.”
A fun, new sex position is an easy way to immerse yourself in a sexual experience. Take a much-needed break from stressing about work or the state of the world by attempting something adventurous in the bedroom, like the many sex positions you'll find on this list. (Don't worry, we also included fan favorites like missionary , cowgirl , spooning , and doggy style .)
Which position(s) should you try first? Start by asking yourself what you're hoping to achieve by changing up your usual routine. This will guide how you approach this list of 50 sex positions, explains Ian Kerner , Ph.D., LMFT, sex therapist, and author of She Comes First and So Tell Me About the Last Time You Had Sex .
If your partner has a vulva and you’re looking for positions to help them orgasm, then you want to look for sex positions where you can manually stimulate your partner’s clitoris during penetration. “Most [vulva owners] are not going to be able to get highly aroused or have an orgasm unless there's some kind of clitoral stimulation happening,” Kerner says.
Or perhaps you want to explore elements of BDSM (an umbrella term encompassing Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, Sadism, and Masochism) with new sex positions. “Some of these positions are great for power play, where you can feel dominant or submissive,” Kerner says.
Some of these sex positions are fun to try for novelty's sake, but not necessarily ideal from start to finish. “You will likely want to mix and match positions,” Kerner says. “You can start in some of the more adventurous and highly athletic positions, but then transition into a less demanding position, where you can fully relax and feel present in the sex you’re having.”
If a sex position feels uncomfortable, don't overdo it. This isn’t a “push through the pain” situation. Just switch to something else! There are plenty of positions here to choose from.
Benefits: You can enjoy the view of your penis thrusting.
Technique: Stand at the edge of a bed or desk while your partner lies back and raises their legs to their chest. Their knees are bent as if they're doing a "bicycling" exercise. Grab their ankles and enter them. Thrust slowly, as the deep penetration may be painful for them.
Also try: Have your partner place their heels on your shoulders, which will open their hips so their labia press against you.
Hot tip: Encourage your partner to play with their clitoris manually. Also, show them that they can control your penetration by flexing their thighs.
Benefits: Allows for face-to-face intimacy; cozy for long sessions.
Technique: Sit on a chair or the edge of the bed. Your partner then faces you, wraps their arms around your back, climbs on top, and sits on your lap. Once in the saddle, they can ride up and down on your penis by pressing with their legs or knees. Want to go faster? Assist by grabbing their buttocks and lifting and bouncing.
Also try: Your mate can sit astride facing you on a rocking chair. Old wooden rockers on hardwood or stone floors provide the greatest variety of good vibes.
Hot tip: There's lots of room for creativity in this position for stimulating erogenous areas of the upper body, head, neck, and face. If they like to have their nipples licked, go for it!
Benefits: Great for G-spot stimulation .
Technique: The penetrating partner lies on their back. The receiver can straddle them in a reverse cowgirl position before carefully leaning backward until their back is on their partner's chest.
Hot tip: The penetrating partner can reach around and play with the receiver's nipples or clitoris. (The receiver can also use a vibrator in this position.)
Benefits: “This looks like it's a nice position to fantasize a little and get a new view of your partner’s behind,” says Kerner. “It's a chance to get absorbed in the sensations.”
Technique : From reverse cowgirl, have them bend all the way forward, extending their legs all the way back. They should be supporting their body by resting on their elbows, as if they were holding a plank.
Hot tip : Your partner can easily stimulate their own clitoris while you penetrate them. If the two of you are into spanking , go for it.
Benefits: Ideal for vaginal and anal penetration. If the receiver has a vulva, this one's great for G-spot stimulation. And it's comfortable option if the receiver experiences lower back pain.
Technique: The receiver assumes the happy baby pose, a popular yoga position where you lie on your back, bend your knees into your chest, grip the outer edges of your feet, and roll side to side like, well, a happy baby. In this case, instead of rolling around, the receiver stays put so the penetrating partner can enter them from a kneeling position.
Also try: Tweaking your angles by sliding a sex pillow underneath the receiving partner's hips.
Benefits: Ideal position for all things cunnilingus: clit sucking, rubbing, digital penetration, G-spot stimulation.
Technique: While on your knees have your partner stand up-right. They should then drape one of their legs around your shoulder while you eat them out.
Hot tip: Ideally you want your partner's hands above your head. This can be accomplished through the use of some BDSM restraints . If restraints aren’t their thing, see if you can find an anchored bar or beam for them to grasp.
Benefits: “A great position that allows for clitoral stimulation with both your mouth and fingers,” says Kerner.
Technique: FYI, the partner on top will have sore triceps once you both finish. For the Little Dipper, the person on top uses either a bed, couch, or chair to hoist themselves over their partner. The person on bottom then inserts his penis into the top’s vagina or anus. The top then does tricep dips to move up and down on their partner’s penis. If done correctly, you should be in a T-shape formation.
Hot tip : Play with the top’s penis or clitoris for extra stimulation.
Technique: “This just looks impossible to me,” says Kerner. “But if you’re able to do it, go for it. I think it’s just a victory in being able to pull this position off.”
Hot tip : You may need to help out your by thrusting your pelvis up, so their mouth can actually reach your genitals.
Benefits: Strong clitoral stimulation. In a study published in the Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy , women who were unable to have an orgasm in the missionary position reported a 56 percent increase in orgasm frequency using the coital alignment technique. Other studies suggest even greater success, with up to 73 percent of women achieving orgasm with CAT.
Technique: The CAT is very similar to the missionary position except your body is positioned farther up and to one side. Instead of being chest to chest, your chest is near your partner's shoulders. Have them bend their legs about 45 degrees to tilt their hips up. This causes the base of your shaft to maintain constant contact with the clitoris.
Also try: Ask your partner to straighten their legs. Push your pelvis down a few inches while they push up.
Hot tip: Instead of thrusting up and down, rock forward and back to (hopefully) provide enough stimulation for your partner to orgasm. Make this position even better by grinding your pelvis in a circular motion.
Benefits: Deep penetration, G-spot stimulation, and access to the clitoris.
Technique: The receiver lies on their back and raises their legs in the air. Kneeling, the penetrating partner holds their ankles and spreads their legs into a V shape before entering them.
Also try: Making sure the receiver stretches their hamstrings first.
Hot tip: Since the penetrating partner's hands are busy holding the receiver's legs in place, the receiver should hold the vibrator if they want to add some clit stimulation to this position.
Benefits: The blood will rush to your other head too.
Technique: Move to the edge of the bed and lie back with your head and shoulders on the floor as your partner straddles you. The blood will rush to your head creating mind-blowing sensations upon orgasm.
Also known as: Over Your Shoulder, The Hamstring Stretch
Benefits: This is the best sex position for people who are particularly sensitive along one side of the clitoris.
Technique: Kneel on the floor with your mate lying on the edge of the bed. Raise one of their legs and ask them to support it by wrapping their hands around their hamstring just below the knee. With one hip raised, your partner will be able to add some movement to aid in your stroking or to help move you to the perfect spot.
Also try: Encourage your partner to wriggle a little to help you get the rhythm right.
Hot tip: During oral sex, allow the knuckle of your finger to trail behind your tongue. The contrast between soft flesh of the tongue and hard bone of the finger will create a pleasing sensation. (For more oral pleasure positions, check out Your Ultimate Guide to Oral Sex. )
Hot tip for her: Your partner can let you know the tongue pressure and technique they prefer by demonstrating with their mouth on your earlobe.
Benefits: “There's going to be G-spot stimulation, clitoral stimulation, and cervical stimulation,” says Kerner. “It’s a nice position for the person on top to really control their orgasm. It also gives you a great view of everything that’s happening.”
Technique: Cowgirl is one of the best sex positions because it allows for a variety of interesting sights and sensations, and offers your partner the psychological advantage of taking charge of pace and depth of penetration. Alternate between shallow and deep thrusts. "Shallow will stimulate the front third of the vagina, which is the most sensitive," says sex therapist Rebecca Rosenblat, author of Seducing Your Man .
Also try: Lie chest to chest, with your partner stretching their legs out on top of your legs. Your partner should brace their feet on the tops of yours and push off to create a rocking motion that will rub the vulva and clitoral area against your pubic bone for greater pleasure.
Hot tip: It will be easier for your partner to climax if you stimulate them manually and orally until they're extremely aroused. From the cowgirl position, have them squat over your face so you can pull off some oral stimulation.
Also known as: The Love Seat, The Man Chair
Technique: Sit on the edge of the bed or on a chair with your feet on the floor. Your mate turns away and backs up onto you, sitting between your legs. They can ride back and forth by pushing off the chair arms or pressing up with their feet. They can control the angle of entry by arching their back and pressing their buttocks into your groin. While doggy style is about your dominance, The Hot Seat puts your partner in the driver's seat. And that makes it one of the best sex positions for both of you.
Also try: Your partner can reach under and stimulate the base of your penis, scrotum, and perineum. Meanwhile, you can reach around and stimulate their nipples.
Technique: This is a variation on the Hot Seat with your partner sitting in your lap, but this time planting yourselves on top of a washing machine set at the highest agitator cycle.
Benefits: Good hand holds for your partner, and you don't have to wait until reaching the bedroom.
Technique: This is a variation on the Hot Seat with your partner sitting on top of you while you sit on one of the stairs of a staircase. Stairs offer good seating possibilities, and a hand rail for extra support and lifting leverage for them.
Also known as: Rodeo Drive, Half Way Around the World
Benefits: With a pillow under your head, you get an awesome view of your mate's backside. They can control depth of penetration and pace with this sex position.
Technique: Lie on your back with your legs outstretched. Your partner kneels next to you, then turns and spreads their legs, straddling your hips and facing your feet. Kneeling, your partner lowers down onto your penis and begins riding you.
Also try: Have your partner lean forward or back to change the angle of the penis for greater stimulation.
Hot tip for her: From this position, your partner can easily reach down to touch themselves or direct your penis to where it feels best.
Benefits: Dual stimulation for your partner; for you—a great view of their rear and your penis entering them.
Technique: Lie on your back and bend one of your legs, keeping the other outstretched. Your partner straddles the raised leg with a thigh on either side and lowers themselves onto your member so that their back is facing you. They should hold your knee and use it for support as they rock up and down.
Also try: They can press their vulva hard against your upper thigh rubbing as the feeling dictates.
Hot tip for her: From Pole Position, your partner can massage your raised leg during the action. Or reach down and touch your perineum.
Benefits: Puts them in control, maintains intimacy.
Technique: Place pillows behind your back and sit on the bed with legs outstretched. Your partner straddles your waist, feet on the bed. They then bends their knees to lower themselves onto you, using one hand to direct your penis in. Just by pressing on the balls of their feet and releasing, they can raise and lower themselves on your shaft as slowly or quickly as they please.
Also try: From this position, you both lie back into the Spider position or its more challenging variation, The X.
Benefits: This sex position is the piece de resistance for partners who prefer a strong, upward stroking motion.
Technique: Place a pillow under their hips to tilt their pelvis up. Bend their knees so they can place their feet on your shoulder blades.
Also try: Amplify your oral efforts with a simple sleight-of-hand trick: While you lap away, try using your hands to push gently upward on their abdomen, stretching their skin away from their pubic bone, and helping to coax the head of the clitoris out from beneath the hood.
Hot tip: Let your tongue rest firmly and flat against the full length of the vaginal entrance, then have them move and grind against your tongue.
Benefits: The ultimate sex position for oral on the go, use this to get your mate in the mood and help them cut loose.
Technique: Have your partner sit on a chair with their legs wide open. You take it from there. This is a good sex position for either beginning the slow build-up with loose, broad, strokes, or ending with strong suction. Your partner is able to easily guide you, and they're able to get a full view of you between her legs, which is a turn-on for many people.
Also try: Switch to a swivel chair and turn it left and right as you hold your tongue stationary.
Hot tip: Insert your index and ring fingers and stroke in a "come hither" motion to wake up their G-spot using this sex position. With either your tongue or other hand, apply pressure to their pubic bone. This dual stimulation executed just right will send your partner over the edge.
Benefits: A variation of One Up that allows for slow buildup.
Technique: Some people with vulvas find direct clitoral stimulation uncomfortable. Having your mate close their legs during oral sex may help. Place your hand above their public mound applying light pressure, then rub your firm tongue on the area around the clitoris to add indirect stimulation.
Hot tip: During oral sex allow the knuckle of your index finger of your free hand to trail behind your tongue. The contrast between the soft flesh of the tongue and hard bone of the finger will create a pleasing sensation.
Also known as: The Pretzel Dip, The Camel Ride
Benefits: The deep penetration of doggy-style while face to face.
Technique: Kneel and straddle their left leg while they're lying on their left side. Your partner will bend their right leg around the right side of your waist, which will give you access to enter their vagina. For many people with vulvas, rear entry hurts their backs. This sex position allows them to lounge comfortably while enjoying deep penetration.
Also try: Manually stimulate them using your fingers. Or withdraw your penis and, holding the shaft with your left hand, rub the head against their clitoris to bring them to the brink of orgasm. You can reinsert when they want you back inside.
Hot tip: Be gentle with the clitoris. It's more sensitive than your penis, so touch lightly at first. Some people even prefer gentle pressure around it rather than direct stimulation. Go soft, then increase speed and pressure.
Hot tip for her: And ask them to direct you, faster, slower, lighter, harder.
Benefits: “You can enjoy the view of your penis thrusting inside of your partner, and this position really allows for direct clitoral stimulation,” says Kerner.
Technique: Have your partner perch their butt right on the edge of the bed. With you standing in front, you can enter them. Then have them wrap their legs around you. From there, stand up-right, placing your hands around their back to support your partner.
Also Try: If you don’t have the quad and glute muscles to pull this position off, just keep your partner on the edge of the bed, penetrating them there.
Hot Tip : It’s a great way to finish having sex. Since the position is strenuous, try doing it 30-60 seconds before you and your partner are about to orgasm.
