Other sex positions - standing, sitting and kneeling
Well, these are the adventurous versions of some of the positions you have already seen - some of them are just for fun, and some of them are only for the fit and supple. Why try them? Well, you certainly don't need to, if you are happy with the way things are in your love life. But as we said in the introduction, if your love life is flagging through boredom and you're feeling that sex has become a bit monotonous, then trying some new positions can be a way to boost your excitement and passion. I think that lovers who are trying slightly more complicated positions than the standard missionary, rear entry and side by side will be able to play with these positions and find their own favorites - above all, have fun, and enjoy yourselves! Sex should be playful as well as passionate!
If you're going to try standing sex positions then you need to be fit and fairly strong - especially if you're trying to carry your partner while she's mounted on your erect member! If you aren't confident of success, we'd recommend that you don't try these positions - there's no point risking a broken penis!
And that raises an interesting question - why would you even want to try standing sex positions? Well, there were a lot of jokes around in my younger days about "knee tremblers" behind the bike sheds at school: maybe the whole point of standing sex is to be able to do it quickly, when there are no beds or other conveniences, either out of necessity or for the sheer thrill of it! (Airplane toilets at 60,000 feet, maybe?)
Standing sex is most likely to work when you're both roughly the same height, so if the man is taller, then the best way to get it together is to have the woman stand on something strong enough to support her. Then, the best way for the man to get into his partner is to start with him bending his knees while the couple embrace loosely, facing each other, so that the man can enter his partner as he straightens up. He can thrust fairly strongly if the couple's height's right, and if the woman leans backwards a little bit, then his pelvic bone can press against her clitoris each time he thrusts. To get deeper penetration, the woman should stand one one leg and hook the other one around him. He can hold her thigh to add support, and he can hold her round her butt to help rock her on his erect cock. Take this a stage further if you like by having her completely supported on his hips - or resting her butt on a table if he doesn't have the strength to hold her up. You can see how all this works more clearly in the pictures below.
For even more variety, if you're the woman, stand facing away from your man, and have him enter you from behind as you bend forward. He can get into you deeply, and his hands are free to play with anything else that takes your fancy!

All in all, standing sex is a position you might want to explore, ready for those moments when you want a quickie, you just can't wait, and you just have to have your partner NOW! Apart from the quick satisfaction of an urgent fuck, there isn't a lot of sensuousness or romance in this sex position! But if it's what you need, what you want, and the time and the place are right, then go for it!
Standing intercourse is associated with the urgency of early sexual attraction and takes on an especially intense eroticism all of its own. We don't recommend resorting to it in the very first instances of having sex. That's because it's not intimate enough to help you bond as a couple, and it needs a high level of cooperation and communication for both man and woman to enjoy it.
This sex position is pretty easy but for those who have never experienced it, here's how you do it. Lean your woman with her back to the wall with her legs slightly apart. Support her at the rear with one hand while helping to insert your penis with the other. If she is short, you may have to lift her slightly. You may also have to bend your legs so that your penis is suitably angled. Don't forget that every time you thrust you crash her into the wall - so do your best to partly cushion her back with a free hand. This is exciting as long as your woman is shorter than you. Because of the height difference, you cannot help thrusting upwards and if you press in close your penis should be able to rub and thrust near or possibly on her clitoris. But the position's strongest advantage is that it reeks of excitement, urgency and lust. It can be a massive turn-on in itself.
The Perfumed Garden offers some extremely useful variations of the upright position, including the powerfully athletic Driving the Peg Home, where the male actually lifts the female off the ground until her vagina is at right angles to his upright penis and her knees grasp his thighs as if she were riding a horse. There is also a See-Saw version where the woman hitches one leg over her partner's thigh, thus offering a wider and more comfortable stimulation, and where the couple are exhorted to take it in turns to thrust, first one, then the other, a kind of alternative in-and-out so that each partner gains a sense of control and a choice of angle.
Sitting sex positions
If you look up "sitting sex positions" on the search engines, there isn't much useful information. Why on earth is that? Do people not have sex in sitting positions? Well, of course they do, but they obviously aren't very popular or at least they aren't considered worth writing about! Is that because everyone knows how to do it? Presumably, the logic goes, the man sits in a chair without arms, then his partner sits on his lap and puts his erect penis into her vagina as she lowers herself onto his lap. Simple? Of course and yet there must be more to it than that!
You can either sit facing each other or you can sit facing away from each other, in which case the woman can thrust backwards onto her man's erection like a sophisticated version of rear entry sex, where the man is treated to the sight of her buttocks framing his erection as he watches himself penetrating her.
Kneeling sex positions
There aren't any rules about how to enjoy yourselves during sex: indeed, there's a lot to be said for a simple philosophy of "if it feels good, do it". With that in mind, here are some suggestions, in the guise of photos, about how you might enjoy the more adventurous forms of sexual intercourse, among which I'd include kneeling sex positions. If you'd like to read a personal account of some of these, try Sarah's frank and funny website.
One of the possible advantages of the photos shown here is that the man can manipulate his position in relation to his partner so that she enjoys the maximum G spot stimulation. This can add greatly to her pleasure. I'd guess that you have to be fairly uninhibited to enjoy these positions, since they expose you completely to your partner's gaze, and they involve a fair amount of romping around in pretty unconventional sex positions
I came across the so-called Kneeling Ball Sex Position in the outer reaches of the internet, and I thought I'd describe it here for you.
In this the position the woman lies on her side as though she was going to curl up into a ball. The man is kneeling, facing the woman's back. He penetrates her from behind, while he's kneeling and she's sort-of curled up into a ball. He can thrust from his hips, though the woman can move somewhat as well. If you're into power platy, this is a good position to play in, since one partner is naturally subordinate and one is naturally dominant and in control. The man can change the angle and direction of penetration so he stimulates his partner's clitoris and G spot. The partner lying down can move their legs in and out of the ball (i.e. straighten them) to change the sensations for the penetrating partner. The penetrating partner can give a lot of loving attention to the lying-down partner.
Now, does that sound like something worth trying, or just like a way to give a fancy, made-up on the spot sex position a fancy name?
SITTING,STANDING AND HEALING SEX POSITION[2]
Sitting sex - a restful way to make love
If you're starting out in your sex life, one sex position you may not have tried is sitting. It seems to be a position that couples don't use until they're more experienced - or perhaps it's one that helps to relieve the boredom or sense of routine that can creep into a sexual relationship after a while. Whatever, it's not a very popular or common position. In one survey by Vulva Velvet, it transpired that only 1.2% of couples said this was their favorite sex position, and only 5% used it regularly.
But sitting sex does offer several benefits. A firm chair where both partners can get their legs over the sides and their feet onto the floor gives more support than a bed, so there's more stability as you make love. This means the woman has more control over the depth of penetration and the pace of lovemaking. Thus sex can equally well be spontaneous and passionate or slow and loving; in this sitting position, especially if the woman is facing her partner, sex can be gentle, romantic and cuddly, with plenty of kissing, touching and caressing, or it can be fast, exciting and rollicking with passion.
It's harder to make love in an armchair; the woman will have to squat with her thighs folded if she faces her man, unless he is so slumped that she can sit astride his thighs with her feet on the floor. An alternative position here is for her to sit facing away from her man, so that she basically sits in his lap and the couple enjoy a sitting form of rear entry sex. This can be very exciting and erotic: she can wriggle her hips and pelvis to enhance both her own and her partner's pleasure, either she or he can get to her clitoris, and he can enjoy the feel of her buttocks in his lap.
The third major sitting sex position is for the couple to sit on a bed - the man has his legs over the edge, while his partner sits on his lap facing towards him, her legs clasped behind his waist with her feet resting on the bed. This position has ample scope for the couple to caress, kiss and explore each other's bodies as passionately as if they were in the early stages of their love affair.
Most difficult of all is the variation where the man and the woman both sit on the bed, clasping each other with their legs around the waist. This requires a fair degree of flexibility and may not be possible for all couples. Indeed, even those who can manage it may wish to have some kind of back support. Obviously the woman will be sitting in the man's lap. One of the advantages of this position is that you can adopt an almost meditative pose and extend sexual intercourse for as long as you wish - small pelvic movements will keep him erect, and her aroused - while you center your sexual energy centers and visualize the flow of energy around your bodies. The higher the woman holds her knees, effectively the shorter her vagina will become.
In general, sitting positions may not give as much sensation as some of the more traditional man on top or woman on top positions, but the naughty thrill of sitting sex may make up for this. If you happen to be kissing and cuddling in a chair, it's not hard to make the transition into full-blown sex, partly or fully clothed, with a few adjustments to your position. Once again, the partner on top - generally the woman - is the one who has the most opportunity to move and control the pace of sex; though in some cases the man will be able to move and can help his partner to move by lifting her with his hands under her buttocks - which they are both likely to find rather erotic.
One of the nicest things about face to face sex is the closeness and extensive body contact that you can enjoy; in fact, this is what helps to give sitting sex a strong feeling of intimacy and connection.
Of course, it's arguable that many of the positions we have described on other pages fall into the category of sitting sex: for example, does "sitting sex" include a position where the woman is sitting on top of her man as he lies on the bed? We believe it doesn't matter. There are no hard and fast rules about sex - and indeed different categories may serve no useful purpose other than to satisfy our wish to classify things.
