Astride Position
How to Do
In the woman-on-top/astride position:
- The man lies on his back and the woman sits on his erect penis
- Facing him, she may squat on her haunches
- Facing him, she may kneel, supporting herself with her hands, making it easier to lean forward and kiss his mouth.
- Sitting on top, facing away from him, increases the depth of penetration
- Lying with her whole body along his increases the intimacy
On top the woman can control the pace of lovemaking and regulate the depth of penetration and the rate of thrusting of the penis.
The woman-on-top position allows:
- for maximum indirect stimulation of the clitoris by the penis
- some women to reach orgasm more easily
- freer hand movements for caressing
- couples to see each other
Some women do not like the deep penetration of this position. This can be regulated by limiting how far down they lower themselves onto the erect penis.
The Man-On-Top Position
The Man-On-Top Position/Missionary Position is named after the 19th century Christian missionaries who believed that the man on top was the only natural and proper position for intercourse, and preached to their converts to give up their animal positions in favor of the man-on-top position.
The missionary position is the most common lovemaking position because:
- it is comfortable
- it allows a great deal of body contact
- it allows good depth of penetration
- you can kiss and hold each other at the same time
How to Do
In the man-on-top position:
- The woman lies on her back with her legs spread and her knees raised while the man enters her vagina with his penis
- The man can either lie flat on the woman if he is not too heavy in weight and it is not uncomfortable for her, or he can support some or all of his weight on his elbows, hands or knees (sometimes the weight of the man on them can restrict a woman's pelvic movement)
