Sex position: Mouth magic

accreditation

Although humans aren't the only animals known to have oral sex (yup, I Googled it!) it is definitely one of the coolest things we, as a species can do. Move over opposable thumbs, hello oral sex! The variations are endless. It can be intimate, dirty, loving, kind, evil… The trick to giving great oral sex is to enjoy it!

Easiest position for cunnilingus:
Lie flat on your back on a comfy bed. He lies between your legs (it helps if he's half-on, half-off the bed). You can either put your head on a cushion if you like to watch or you can let your head hang off the bed for that blood-rushing-to-your-brain feeling.

Pros:
Because you're on your back your belly looks relatively flat so you can admire yourself while his head is between your legs.
He has access to your breasts.

Feeling playful?
Sit on a chair (office or kitchen chair works best) He sits on the floor between your knees.

Pros:
For women who like a little power rush this works a charm.
Also, you can explore that whole office sex fantasy thing. Specially if you sit at a desk and he crawls underneath. “Oh John, you’re going to have to explain these spreadsheets as soon as you’re done down there!”

Or for the more brazen...
He lies on the bed and you – well there's only one way to say this really – sit on his face.

Pros:
You control the pressure etc.
Most men find it wildly erotic – if you don't smother him!
You know that thing we mentioned earlier about the power rush. Mmm. Just the ticket.

Easiest position for fellatio:
Having him lie on his back. Or on your sides, facing each other.

Pros:
Humping his leg will let you be part of the action and also – he'll think your writhing looks hot.

Feeling playful?
Do the porn thing and have him stand while you go down on your knees.

Pros:
If you like to feel submissive, being on your knees generally does the trick. If you're not very excited or a little bit drunk, kneel on a cushion, unless you enjoy a bit of pain, of course. Hey, a world of no judgement.

You can look up at him adoringly/ naughtily/ hungrily (take your pick) and this adds zing.

Actually experiencing how his legs turn to jelly when he comes makes you feel like a sex goddess. Go you!

And of course the 69…
A lot of things in life works better when it's a joint effort. But not necessarily in this case. Although the 69 is probably one of the most famous positions (it sounds so damn good in theory!) most people find that you can't concentrate on two things at the same time, ie. you can't focus on his orgasm and expect to come. Well, most of the time, anyway.
