The lowdown on sexual positions
continued from page 1
Top positions for women
For women, orgasm potential is the ultimate consideration of what makes a great position, but vary sex by taking it in turns and changing positions
Woman on top
This position puts the woman in control. The man lies on his back while the woman rides him. She can then set the speed and depth of penetration. Obviously, the man's movement is tempered in this position. In fact, some women like this element and add to it by pinning their partner's arms to the bed whilst they make love to them.
One of the best things about this position is the amount of clitoral stimulation it provides. The more the woman leans forward, the better the friction. Some women may wish to use lube to make it more comfortable. Lying absolutely flat on top of the man will give the maximum clitoral stimulation. Move slowly for the most sensual sensation. Alternatively, try facing away from him for better G-spot stimulation.
Missionary
Even though it has a reputation for being 'unimaginative', the missionary position has a lot going for it. Many women particularly enjoy the basic missionary position, with the man on top and the woman underneath, because allows a lot of intimacy. You can see your partners' face, kiss, hug and caress each other. The full body contact felt in the missionary position means that the body's largest sexual organ - the skin - is stimulated. Oil (being careful to keep it well away from the condom) or lube on your skin in this position will heighten sensitivity.
Spooning
Many women also love 'spooning' because of the intimacy it offers. Both of you lie on your sides facing in the same direction with the man behind the woman. The man slides in and both partners gently rock to orgasm. The woman can play with her clitoris or guide the man's hand to wherever she'd like to be touched.
