Attempting Reverse Missionary

Hang Loose Sex PositionBetty Rocker Sex Position

Reverse missionary essentially blends the Betty Rocker position with standard Missionary. It demands a fair amount of penile flexibility from your man. If this one isn't quite your speed, you may find something better suited to you in our ultimate guide to the most satisfying sex positions.

To set up reverse missionary, lie on your back with your legs fairly spread. Your man lies on top of you, but instead of facing you, he positions himself head-to-toe, legs stretched out along the bed on either side of you. He then carefully guides his penis downward to enter you. This places real strain on the suspensory ligaments in his penis, so caution is essential here.

Her Role In The Reverse Missionary Position

It's crucial not to tug on his penis with your hands as he gets into position — you don't want to cause him pain! That said, using your hands to help guide him inside you is perfectly fine.

Once he's inside, stay fairly still while he gets settled. After a minute or two, once he's comfortably thrusting, you can start thrusting back gently. Placing your hands on his butt can help him find an angle you both like and add extra push for deep penetration.

This position also sets you up perfectly for some anal fingering if he's into prostate play!

His Role In The Reverse Missionary Position

As already noted, your man needs to be careful attempting reverse missionary — he risks real injury without caution. If he feels excessive strain on his penis mid-sex, he should pull out and switch to a different lovemaking position.

Beyond that, all he needs to do during reverse missionary is thrust up and down.

Sean's Thoughts On The Reverse Missionary Sex Position

Honestly, I included reverse missionary mainly because it's different and exotic, but it's not something I personally enjoy much. To me it feels like more pain than pleasure. So keep in mind that a position looking intriguing doesn't guarantee it'll actually feel great.
