Like most couples, you probably often stick to the good old missionary style as it works just perfectly. Honestly, there is nothing wrong with sticking to what works and is practical for most of the time.
However, routines do get boring, and you need a way to keep things exciting by being adventurous, spontaneous, and passionate about your sex life. Without this, that spark and fun in your relationship can fade away, and this is not what you signed up for, right?
Since there is never a wrong time to switch up things, whether you are a new couple or one that wants to rekindle that fire you had years ago, here are exciting sex positions for more creative and adventurous intimacy.
Beginner-Friendly Sex Positions
Slowly is the fastest way to get there, especially if you are taking on a new adventure.
For your sex life, the best way to switch up things is with beginner-friendly positions as they are simple enough to try without struggling and passionate enough to fuel excitement.
Here are the top picks:
- Missionary but with a Twist
It would be a crime not to give the classic missionary position its flowers. Thinking this position is too boring?
How about you make some small adjustments and witness how those small changes can be magical? For example, CAT (Coital alignment technique), not the pet animal of course, is a simple way to enhance clitoris stimulation.
Here, you will need a pillow or two so that the partner being penetrated is elevated and their pelvis is upwards. This increases the range of penetration motion while allowing for added intimacy as you’ll still be facing each other. The partner on top can also easily grind instead of thrusting, allowing for more pleasure and better orgasms.
- Spooning
How about finding a gun way to enjoy cuddling and lovemaking at the same time? Spooning is the perfect position for this as it allows for slow, sensual late-night or lazy morning moments without having to struggle.
Just like cuddling, one partner will lie behind the other, and with a little shifting of the hips and good angles for the leg, you can have great intimate sex. With this position, you can also easily spice up things with that vibrating sex toy as your hands will be free to do some exploring.
- Woman on top/Cowgirl/Reverse Cowgirl
The woman can take charge by getting on top of the penetrating partner and get pleasure in different positions. She can choose to lie chest to chest and grind for deeper and constant vaginal and clitoris stimulation.
Alternatively, you can try the cowgirl where the woman gets to be in a kneeling position and can explore different angles and rhythms. To enjoy this position more, especially if you want better balance, the woman can use the headboard for support. You can also play with other toys such as blindfolds and feathers on your partner, allowing for more pleasure.
- The lazy dog or leapfrog
The lazy dog, as the name suggests, is a version of the popular doggy style. It’s great for g-spot stimulation and involves having the receiving partner crouch on all fours while the other partner kneels and penetrates from behind.
Another modified version of doggystyle is the leapfrog where the receiving partner gets on their hands and knees. This elevates the hips and allows for ease of deeper penetration from behind. The receiving partner can use a pillow for their head and use their free hand to play with a clitoral sex toy.
- The face-off
This is another easy yet intimate sex position that works for most couples. The penetrating partner will be in a sitting position on a chair or at the edge of the bed. This allows the receiving partner to sit while facing them.
Most couples love this position as it allows the hands to be free for the hands or fingers to do the talking; not to mention the many kisses and tongue plays possible.
Adventurous Sex Positions
Adventurous intimacy might require more flexibility and creativity, but it’s always worth it. You’ll not only be able to push those boundaries but be able to explore new sensations as you enhance couple bonding.
Here are some exciting sex positions for when you want to take things a notch higher:
- The Sideway 69
Oral sex and sex toy plays have never been better than with the Sideway 69. This position requires you and your partner to lie on your sides such that your mouths are facing each other’s genitals.
The trick here is to be as comfortable as possible, and you can use pillows to support your heads and place your legs over each other’s heads at a raised angle. Armed with your favorite toys, be it a dildo, cock ring, vibrator, or wand massager, you can have as much fun as you want.
- The Helicopter
This position requires some athletic abilities as it requires both partners to get on their knees with their butts facing each other. The penetrating partner will then lift their legs and be in an elevated position that allows for penetration.
Go slow if you are trying this position for the first time, and remember it requires some good endowment. You can also use a strap-on and it’s loved as it allows you to reach those sweet spots that don’t get that kind of pressure regularly.
- Standing Wheelbarrow
Are you feeling playful? The Standing Wheelbarrow position is one of those exciting sex positions that bring about some memorable adventure.
Here, one partner supports the other’s legs while standing, creating a unique angle and plenty of opportunities for deep penetration. It’s a great way to break routine and enjoy lovemaking from a unique position that is extra fun.
- The Magic Mountain
Combine flexibility and creativity with the magic mountain that opens the doors to lots of stimulation and deep eye contact. Here, you’ll both sit on opposite ends leaning on your hands with legs bent and crisscrossed so that the penetrating partner has room.
Since you are facing each other, as you are only slightly leaning back, you’ll enjoy looking into each other’s eyes as you grind. You can get naughty with some temperature plays or nipple stimulation.
Kama Sutra-Inspired Sex Positions
Creative intimacy can never be discussed fully without the mention of kama sutra positions; which have earned it an undisputed top position in the world as an ultimate guide to connection and pleasure.
If you and your lovely partner want to explore new levels of intimacy, this guide will offer some great inspiration. Here are some kama sutra positions you can enjoy:
- The Curled Angel
This position is relatively simple for most couples and is a modified way of spooning and lovemaking. Here, the woman or receiving partner will be in a curled position with knees more towards her chest, and the man spoons from behind.
It’s a position that can be tried out even on those lazy nights or days and it allows for deep penetration. Also, practical if the woman is pregnant; but you’ll need to communicate about angle and depth.
- The Indrani
The Indrani is another great position for couples who are energetic and flexible as it requires the receiving partner to lie on her back and curl her knees towards her breasts. This provides the man or penetrating partner with room for exploration and fingerplay.
The trick to getting this position right is for the receiving partner to rest her legs on the penetrating partner. Adding a pillow for support in the back and hips is also a practical way to ensure comfort and the best angles for penetration.
- Congress of a cow
Sex doesn’t have to start and end on the bed or chair. Congress of a Cow is perfect for high-energy couples who want to make use of the room they have.
Here, the receiving partner will stand on hands and feet (almost like a cow, hence the name) while the man stands and penetrates from behind. Since you’ll be on the floor, it requires some compromises in position, and if staying in this position for too long is hard, you can use the headboard or chair for extra support.
- The Ape
This position lets the woman be in charge by controlling the motion and depth of penetration while enjoying its mysterious touch. It requires the penetrating partner to lie on his back and curl his knees toward the chest. The receiving partner will then sit down facing away from the penetrating partner who then rests the feet on her back.
You can perfectly do this on the age of the bed or chair so that the receiving partner can have a firm ground that allows them to set the right rhythm and enjoy the vaginal stimulation.
