What to consider when choosing a sex position

Feeling liberated in bed doesn’t require looking like you’ve won the Grand Prize at a butt-shaping contest. However, popular positions may not provide the desired pleasure if they don’t take into account your body’s specific needs.

Being overweight can pose two challenges. First, a large belly in one or both partners can make penetration difficult. If you’re looking for intense friction, you’ll need to carefully consider your position.

Secondly, if the heavier partner is on top, it can be difficult for the one on the bottom. This problem can be solved by choosing a position where the other partner isn’t supporting the weight of the first. Women with larger bodies should be especially careful with positions where the man is holding them; however, acrobatics should be approached mindfully, regardless of the weight.

You can use any sex toys during sex, but if you’re considering purchasing special furniture (such as a sex swing), keep in mind that they have weight restrictions. The structure must be able to support not only you but also your partner. The same applies to sex on a table.

These are just general guidelines: your specific sexual scenario may not fit within these guidelines. Adapt the classics to suit your body type. Explore new, unconventional moves and try all the positions that feel comfortable. We’ll recommend the ones that are most likely to bring you pleasure.

1. Doggy style

The position where the man is behind and the woman is on all fours is especially good for larger women: in this case, the belly won’t interfere with comfortable penetration. This position also provides additional clitoral stimulation.

If your bed is too soft, the recipient may feel unsteady during intense friction. In this case, try moving to the floor.

2. Dog on its hind legs

A slightly more exciting variation of doggy style. The woman is on all fours, with her buttocks facing the edge of the bed, while the man stands behind her on the floor. During thrusting, the woman can slightly raise herself, changing the angle—this will provide a more intense sensation.

3. Inverted starfish

The woman positions herself next to the bed, resting her body on the bed and raising her hips. The man enters his partner from behind. This position makes it easier for the couple to maintain balance, as the surface area of ​​support is increased.

4. On the side

The woman lies on her side, and the man positions himself behind her. Since neither of you has to support your partner’s weight in this position, you can enjoy each other for quite some time. The woman can raise her bent knee to enhance penetration. To vary the sensations, place pillows of varying heights under your pelvis or use toys.

This position is also convenient for practicing anal sex, as the partner is especially relaxed.

5. Advanced Missionary

It’s best for a larger partner to avoid lying on top of their partner: instead, try supporting your weight with your arms, although this can be quite difficult.

It’s much more comfortable to kneel opposite the woman’s spread thighs. You can also drape her legs over your shoulders. For added comfort, place pillows under her buttocks.

6. Butterfly pose

A variation of the previous position: the man stands opposite the bed, the woman lies on her back with her legs pointed upward. It’s important to move to the very edge of the bed. The legs can be kept straight or wrapped around the man’s waist.

7. Backwards Cowgirl

The penis of overweight men may be partially hidden by their abdomen. To gain access, consider positions where the woman is on top.

The cowgirl position is suitable for women of any weight, as the partner can control the pace and depth of penetration. But the “reverse cowgirl” position is especially effective—in this position, the woman sits on the man’s thighs, facing his feet. This position allows for smoother thrusting, and it’s especially effective for stimulating the man’s testicles and perineum.

8. Thigh Tide

This is the familiar “Reverse Cowgirl,” but with an important change: the man should bend one knee. The woman can grasp her partner’s thigh with her hands and rub her clitoris against it to bring about orgasm.

9. Standing

This position is especially good if one of the partners is self-conscious about their bodies: it won’t be possible to see each other properly. The woman faces the wall, and the man penetrates her from behind: this way, neither partner has to support the other’s weight. The stomach won’t create any additional obstacles.

To make sex more intense, try having sex in front of a wall mirror: it will help establish deep eye contact. Just don’t grab the glass with your hands; you risk ripping it from its mountings.

10. Ratchet pose (clapper)

A good position for couples with a heavier man. The partner sits on the bed, bracing himself with his hands, and spreads his legs. The woman kneels with her back to him and positions herself between his thighs. Then, she arches forward, extending her arms: this gives the man a good view of her buttocks and labia. The unusual angle ensures deep penetration without her belly getting in the way.

11. Large L (harp)

The woman lies on her side and raises her top leg toward the ceiling—ideally at a 90-degree angle, but this is not necessary. The man kneels, straddling his partner’s thigh, and penetrates her, pressing her top leg to his chest. If this option proves too challenging, the woman can bend her knees slightly.

12. Bent Leg Pose

This position is similar to the “Big L,” but a little easier to perform. Its advantage is the ability to easily stimulate the clitoris.

The woman lies on her back, bending one leg. The man kneels and lowers himself onto his lover’s straight leg, supporting himself with his hands.

13. Scissors

The partners sit on the bed facing each other with their knees bent. They should interlace their legs so that the man’s left thigh is on top of the woman’s right, and vice versa. The woman leans back, maintaining the same position. This position is especially suitable for sensual, slow sex.

Bonus: Intramammary sex

This is a type of intimacy where a man moves his penis between his partner’s breasts. A large bust will enhance the pleasure in this case: simply squeeze the breasts with your hands.

The woman lies on her back, and the man positions himself just below his partner’s breasts and begins thrusting. To avoid chafing, use lube. Edible lube is best, as intravaginal sex especially easily transitions into oral sex.
