Truly innovative sexual positions

Sex can often play tricks on us. These problems aren’t really about sex itself, but rather stem from various fears that affect each and every experience, even the good ones. Sex isn’t the real issue—our minds are, always expecting the worst.

We need to learn to see sex as something natural, as a form of play. It shouldn’t be viewed as a goal we must achieve to please the other person. If we approach it this way, it becomes easier to enjoy, and as a result, to help our partner enjoy as well.

One of the biggest challenges when it comes to sex is that it can sometimes become boring if the same positions are always used. But that’s where we come in to help. To avoid falling into routine, here are 7 innovative sex positions that will pleasantly surprise you.

1. The thrust position

This isn’t one of the easiest positions, but I can assure you that if you let go of fear and master it, the experience will be truly rewarding.

The penetrating partner lies on their back on the bed. Once in position, they need to bring their knees toward their chest. The other partner sits with their back facing them, using their partner’s feet as support. That’s when penetration should begin.

If either person feels that balance is off, hands and wrists can be used for additional support. The goal is to perform the penetration carefully to avoid any injuries that could break the romantic flow of the moment.

2. Position 68

If you’re looking to try a new and different position for cunnilingus, this is one you definitely need to try. It’s truly original and will bring your partner a lot of pleasure.

To try it, one person lies on their back on the bed—this person will be the active one. The other then straddles their partner’s face, placing their genitals over their partner’s mouth. In that position, they slowly lean backward, being careful not to hurt the person underneath. The idea is to let your partner’s body touch your back while you enjoy the pleasure of oral sex. It’s a very intimate and pleasurable position, perfect for those who want to feel deeply connected.

To fully enjoy it, both partners should be relaxed, and the person leaning back should do so gently. Once in place, pleasure is guaranteed.

3. The mechanical bull position

To really enjoy this one, good balance is essential. If you manage that, you can be sure that pleasure will be guaranteed for both of you.

For this position, you sit while penetrating your partner. Your partner should lie on a sturdy stool—make sure it can hold both of your weights. Then it’s time to start moving, both of you working to keep balance while enjoying each other. The key is for the woman to move as if she were taming a bull. This creates new movements and sensations that are very different from traditional positions.

That said, caution is important. Don’t get too carried away, as one of you might get hurt. To minimize risk, choose a low stool so any potential fall won’t be serious.

4 – Tightrope walker position

This position can be described as a penetration position with hands-free interaction. It’s different, and the couples who have tried it are glad they did.

In this case, you need to lie on your back and bend your knees if you’re going to be the one performing the penetration. Now it’s time for the woman to sit on top of you. It’s essential that she looks at you to intensify the arousal. For the penetration to be successful, the woman must lean her back against your thighs and knees. It’s a position that’s not easy to perform.

It’s crucial to use your hands to increase the pleasure of the moment. I recommend using them to give yourself extra stimulation if needed. But you should also use them to caress your partner, so she feels you’re present and enjoying the moment.

5 – Inverted penetration position

This is a comfortable position that can help strengthen the bond between partners. It does require some endurance, which is why it’s more commonly practiced by younger couples.

To perform it, you need to lie on your back with your legs slightly open. The partner who’s going to penetrate must lie on top—but not in the traditional way—rather, in reverse. To clarify, their head should be positioned near your feet.

To enhance the experience, adding a bit of movement is usually a good way to enjoy this position. If you feel things are a bit cold, say things your partner likes or even give them a few light spanks on the buttocks. Of course, always do this gently—pain should never be the goal.

6 – The X position

Personally, I think this is one of the most comfortable and pleasurable positions in a sexual relationship. However, many couples don’t try it simply because they don’t know about it.

To perform the X position, the woman should lie on her side and get comfortable. It can be done on the floor, but it’s recommended to do it on a bed. The man must position himself between her legs and begin the motion. The bodies should be arranged perpendicularly, forming the shape of an X.

To fully enjoy the experience, don’t close your eyes—focus on what’s happening. It’s an incredibly arousing experience.
