5 Exciting Ways to Spice Up Missionary Sex
Take a sex vacation from the classic guy-on-top.
Missionary sex gets a bad rap because it's the go-to position for most couples, but it's also a favorite because it's damn good: There's lots of eye contact, you can feel his weight on you, and it's incredibly intimate. And if you do want to spice things up, step up your game with some of these sexy tweaks.
The I Want You, I Need You
According to famous research by Dr. Marta Meana, being hotly desired is what turns women on most. And there's no better way to see how much a guy desires you than watching him hoist your legs over his shoulders.
The Lock and Load
When you press your legs together in missionary, suddenly every stroke is enhanced. (And if your man's on the smaller size in, this is definitely the position for you—he'll feel bigger and won't slip out.) This position is also good for the super lazy among us because you can take control without moving: Roll your hips around slowly and you'll get amazing friction that will drive you both crazy.
The Shoot the Moon
Remember that old wooden Shoot the Moon game? You two should look like that once you're in position here. Bend your legs up to your chest and have him grab your ankles as he enters you. He can bend your legs, push them together on your chest, spread them apart, push them straight up—the challenge is figuring out exactly the right ways to please you. When at least one of you is groaning incoherently, you have a winner!
The Purring Kitty
In CAT (aka Coital Alignment Technique), he shifts a bit so that his hips are higher than yours. Once he's inside you, have him lift his hips and grind his pubic bone against you. He can circle his hips, rub up and down, or go side-to-side—whatever feels right. This position is super sexy and intimate, great for long, passionate kisses, and your best shot for an orgasm.
The Star-Crossed Lovers
This take on missionary is best if your man is (too) generously endowed—he won't be able to enter you quite as deep. In normal missionary, have him spin about 45 degrees to one side so your bodies form an X and he's entering you at a sideways angle. From here you get a hot view and you can tell him just how steamy he looks.
