The simplest - and most popular - sex position is the missionary position, where the woman lies on her back with legs apart. The man who is penetrating her with his penis lies on top of her, facing her, as he enters her. This position is easy and comfortable, and makes many women feel secure and men more powerful. But there are some great variations to try.....

For something different and exciting, try sex with the man standing in front of his partner, as she lies on her back on the bed with her legs over the edge of the bed. She then lifts her legs upwards and rests her feet on his chest near his shoulders. This is called the butterfly position. It's exciting, unusual and can give extra stimulation to the man's penis and the woman's vagina.

Here's another variation! She lies on her back with her bottom near the edge of the bed and her knees bent, with her legs folded up on her chest. He stands and lifts her pelvis for his penis to penetrate her. This gives both partners a thrilling feeling, and for the man the added excitement of being able to see himself making love to his partner.

Another very intimate variation of this position is for the man to lean forward so that he is in closer connection with his partner. The partners can kiss as they make love, and the tightness of her vagina adds to the thrills for them both.

The coital alignment technique involves the man penetrating his partner with his penis vaginally in the missionary position and then he moves upwards and forward so that the base of his penis stimulates her clitoris. With a gentle rocking motion, provided the partners are in the right position, the repeated stimulation of her clitoris can bring her to a powerful orgasm while her man is making love to her.

Penetration from behind (rear entry sex) can be very exciting for men because of the raunchy nature of this sex position; for women, it's an opportunity to let the "bad" girl out and have a wild, wild sexual time! It can be very liberating for both partners, if they just let themselves go and enjoy the sheer sexual power of this sex position. The usual method is to have both partners standing while the woman bends forward so her man can penetrate her vagina from behind.

Some women find they feel a little inhibited at first in the rear entry position - if this is true for you, wait until you're very aroused before switching into it - you'll enjoy it more.

A popular variation of the "doggy style" position sees the woman on all fours with her chest horizontal. He inserts his penis from behind. He may also hold and even gently pull her hair for excitement.

It's also possible to enjoy sex in this position with the woman's chest angled downwards so her head is near the floor and her buttocks are in the air. The man may have to raise or lower himself to get easy penetration.

In the reverse spoons position the two partners lie on their left or right side facing in the same direction.
He lies behind her and lifts her upper leg so that he can enjoy penile penetration from behind. This is a very relaxing position, suitable for sleepy early morning lovemaking; it also put less pressure on the penis, so a man who's prone to quick ejaculation may well be able to last much longer in this position.

And for a very powerful posiiton, which allows the man to feel dominant and the woman to enjoy a sense of being taken by her loving partner, have the woman lying face down, with her legs spread to expose her vulva.

He lies on top of her, and enters her gently from between her legs - she may need a pillow beneath her hips to help him get his penis inside her. This is a very exciting position which you can adapt as you wish - the tighter she has her legs, for example, the more sensations for both of them - and it's also great for exploring dominance / submission fantasies in your sex life.
