Classic Missionary Position

Difficulty:

What is missionary sex?

Classic Missionary is just that – a classic. Although the missionary sex position has been used since the beginning of time, don’t be fooled into thinking it has to be boring. The classic missionary sex position doesn’t need much explanation, but if you’re unsure about nailing this one, we’ve got you covered.

How to have missionary sex

Have your partner lie back on the bed, sofa or floor, and climb on top of them. With their legs slightly spread, position yourself over them in almost a press-up position. From there you can penetrate, thrusting your hips for more speed and pleasure. Missionary sex is also great when using a strap on dildo.

Why should I do missionary?

Missionary style is an absolute staple in the library of sex positions – everyone has done missionary at some point! It’s a great starting point, gently easing yourself in and enjoying the intimacy and closeness it provides. What’s more, classic missionary is one of the best sex positions to move into other, slightly more advanced positions. Even from basic missionary position sex, you can try lifting yourself up and putting your partner’s legs on your shoulders for deeper penetration.

Make it hotter

Another great thing about classic missionary is the scope for using sex toys to make it hotter. As your bodies are so closely pressed together in this position, it’s ideal for using a vibrating toy to add some extra sensations. A vibrating cock ring will press directly onto your partner’s clitoris or balls and provide waves of pleasure throughout.

Perfect next position
