How To Try The Kneeling Sex Position

Cowboy Sex PositionAnvil Sex Position

The kneeling sex position is a great pick for couples who enjoy face-to-face intimacy during sex along with the novelty of staying upright throughout. (Check out 119 more awesome sex positions in the Sex Positions Guide).

To set up the kneeling position, your man stands on the floor while you kneel on the bed, facing each other. Before going further, make sure the base of his penis lines up roughly with the height of your vagina. If it doesn’t, slide a few sturdy books under the bed to raise it, have your man stand on something to adjust his height, or kneel on a memory foam pillow to boost yourself up. Once you’re both at a comfortable height, he can enter you.

Her Role In The Kneeling Position

Staying perfectly upright the whole time won’t give you a ton of pleasure in the kneeling position with your man. You’ll get a lot more out of it by leaning back — how far is entirely your call.

Lean back just slightly, and your man can help brace you while you rest your hands around his waist. Want to lean back further? Plant your hands behind you on the bed instead. Whether he’s holding you or you’re propping yourself up with one hand, your other hand is free to rub your clit. Plenty of guys find it seriously hot watching you touch and masturbate yourself in front of them.

His Role In The Kneeling Position

Your man doesn’t have to do much while you’re kneeling. At minimum, he just needs to hold position and thrust. But if he wants to be more involved, he can help support you, and his free hand is also perfect for a fun spanking.

If you’re staying upright in the kneeling position, he’s perfectly positioned to kiss you and pull you close. But if you’re leaning back, he can place his hands on your breasts and gently rub them — let him know the nipple stimulation style you like best.

Tips To Keep In Mind For The Kneeling Position

The kneeling position isn’t the most popular one out there, but plenty of students have given it a shot with their man. Here’s some of their feedback worth keeping in mind:

• Most importantly, spend some time experimenting with the kneeling position until you land on an angle you actually enjoy. Since it can take a bit of adjusting to get the heights right, it might not be your best bet for a quickie. You may find you like it most when you lean so far back you’re nearly lying flat on your back.
• If the bed or your man isn’t quite at the right height, try spreading your legs to lower yourself, or have your man rise up on his toes to gain some extra height.

Sean’s Take On The Kneeling Sex Position

I’m a fan of this kneeling position. It’s got a great name 🙂 and with a little experimentation, I can usually land on an angle or setup that we both really enjoy.
