Let's be honest for a moment; sex can be incredible, embarrassing, whimsical, passionate, hilarious, and just plain strange. But that's sort of the beauty of it. The Our intimacy is reflected in the way we move, connect, and investigate with someone we trust. And one of the most fun (and yes, sometimes confusing) parts of sex? The positions.
Now, if you’re bored of the same old routine or just curious about what else is out there, this article’s for you. We’re diving into sex positions—the best, the weirdest, the new ones you probably haven’t tried, and how many are even out there.
No clinical terms. No awkward diagrams. Just a down-to-earth conversation.
Honestly? No one really knows. It depends on how you define a “position.” There are the ones you see in movies, some in magazines, and a few you figure out accidentally when a leg slips off the bed.
Some people say there are around 100 sex positions. Others claim thousands. Doesn’t matter. What matters is which ones work for you. That could be two or twenty. It’s not a contest.
Here’s a quick rundown of some classic sex positions that most couples enjoy. You don’t need to be an athlete to try these.
Don’t knock it. It's fundamental, yet it's personal. You are face-to--face; your eyes meet; you may rapidly vary the pace. Perfect for slow, emotional sex.
This one’s all about depth and control. The person behind leads the motion, and it gives a different kind of stimulation—especially for people with a G-spot.
The one where your partner’s on top. It's uplifting, entertaining, and gives them command of the speed. Good also for clitoral stimulation.
Think lazy Sunday morning sex. One behind the other, both individuals lie on their side. If you are worn but still in the mood, it's laid back, soft, and ideal.
Tired of the basics? Fair enough. Here are some new sex positions that aren't just for the flexible few.
You lie one way, your partner lies across you like a T. Feels weird at first, but gives different angles. Plus, it looks cool.
Sit facing each other with legs wrapped. It’s close, intimate, and lets you kiss and talk. Not one for fast action, but great for slow, intense sessions.
Use a sturdy chair, one partner sits, the other straddles. It adds height and changes pressure points. Just, uh... make sure the chair doesn’t slide.
Honestly? Sure—why not. Some people are visual learners. If looking at sex position images or watching a quick sex position video helps you figure it out, go for it. Just make sure the content’s ethical and respectful. Real intimacy doesn’t always look like adult films, and that’s totally okay.
Aren’t for Everyone (And That’s Fine)
Here’s something people don’t say enough: Not every position feels good for every body. What’s amazing for one couple might be awkward for another. That’s where communication comes in.
Talk about it. Laugh through it. Say “nope, not for me” and move on. That's meant to be the enjoyment.
If something is strange, unpleasant, or painful—stop. Try something else. You’re not doing it wrong. You’re learning together.
Some advice that actually matters:
Sex isn’t always the same, so why should your positions be? Here’s what to try depending on how you’re feeling.
It’s less about the position and more about how you feel in that moment.
Last Thing: Don’t Take It So Seriously
Exploring sex positions should be fun, not stressful. If you both end up laughing while trying to balance in some wild new shape, that’s still a win. Sex isn’t a performance—it’s a connection.
You don’t have to try all sex positions. You don’t even need to count how many sex positions you’ve done. Just enjoy learning about each other’s bodies and preferences. That’s where the real magic is.
