Spice Up the Missionary Position

 

The missionary position is a tried and true sex position that is used as a good old standard. You know what to expect, she knows what's coming and both of you are comfortable and satisfied. This very mundane position works well when needed so don't retire it just yet -- it can be modified. You can make what's old new again.

So when the standard missionary just won't do, here are some satisfying maneuvers to keep your partner satisfied and aroused (not to mention impressed) by your ingenuity.

The Jack Hammer
The name says it all. With a penetrating, downward maneuver you control the speed, depth and force of penetration. Your partner lies on her back with a leg on each of your shoulders. It would be wise to make sure she's limber enough and up for this kind of action. Kneel, placing your knees beside her waist. If needed, rest your hands on top of her thighs to steady and control the movement. Initially, you'll want to make sure she's alright in this position, as you can cause some discomfort if she is unused to stretching in such a way.

Rocking the Cradle
With a gentle motion you can rock her world. With you on top there isn't much your partner can do to add sensation to this position besides relax and contract her vaginal muscles. The brunt of the “work” is done by you. Lie on top of her while you rock back and forth. Some upper-body stamina is required. Firm foot placement is also a necessity to help you rock and pleasure your partner with the intoxicating motion. But make sure you don't crush her with your weight — she won't appreciate the novelty of being “rocked in a cradle” if she feels trapped underneath you.

Bicycle
While this one may take a bit more choreography, the pleasure is certainly worth the few extra seconds it takes to bend and place your bodies in delicious ways. Have your girl lie back on the bed and place her right leg on your right shoulder. Bend her left leg and place it beside your right side. Ease forward and feel the sweet sensation. For some added stimulation, your partner can use her free hands to rub herself or to stimulate you.

Golden Gate Bridge
The only time you'll want this bridge to fall is when she's overcome with a heavy, pulsating orgasm. Place her on her back with a comfy, fluffy pillow under her shoulders. Kneel between her legs, keeping your knees bent at 90 degrees and guide her up toward you with your hands under her waist. Position her vagina in line with your penis and insert. Use short thrusts to penetrate and ignite her senses. She can aid you by wrapping her hands around the backs of your legs to keep you close. Long, sweeping thrusts are not recommended as your control over the motion will be compromised and the position could be lost. This might become frustrating, so keep with the short strokes -- unless you are simply too well-hung to lose your way.

Coital Alignment Technique
If you want to experience her writhing in pleasure beneath you, check this position out. CAT (coital alignment technique) focuses on the alignment of both you and your partner's pelvic bones, which enables the base of your penis to rub against her clitoris. As she lies on her back, place yourself on top and enter her. Slide a couple of inches up to align your pelvic bone with hers and this will ensure the base of your penis is rubbing against her clit. Use an upward and downward sweeping motion. This is not the time to use regular in-and-out thrusting. Both of you should have your legs straight out and positioned beside or on top of one another. Your girl can bring you in deeper by wrapping her legs around your calves. Don't forget to touch and kiss her body as this deviation from straight missionary allows for great sensual body-on-body contact.

Missionary Fun
Digressing a bit from the norm is a healthy and exciting foray into sexual practice and pleasure. There is nothing wrong with the missionary position; however, you can liven up your sex life by introducing alternatives to everyday routines. Modest changes can yield fiery results. Have fun and play with your partner by taking old favorites and making them new again.
