For Valentine’s Day, ElaineyO explains (with illustrations) how to do five sex positions that are more likely to lead to sprained muscles and torn ligaments than to orgasm. Don’t try these at home.

1. The Triple Lindy

How To Do It:
This is a position that takes IMMENSE strength for both parties.

The female must have relatively strong abdominal muscles and be able to align her spine with the man’s penis throughout the entire experience. The man must be able to lift the woman to the point of insertion, then settle her lower region comfortably into his thighs while leaning back, using the woman’s front half as balancing weight.

In a sense both genital regions act as a fulcrum. If anyone can do this for more than a few seconds, congratulations, you lift weights 8 times a day.

What Could Go Wrong:
Since the man’s strength is all that is really keeping the woman safe as she is being pleasured while held up and craning her back like she’s a mermaid at the bow of a ship, the worst case scenario would be: man drops woman, woman gets concussion, vagina breaks penis, man’s knees knock the wind out of the woman, making this one of the most daringly dangerous sex positions to do without leaning on anything.

If your woman isn’t as eager for sex as you’d like her to be (or not interested at all), it’s probably because she isn’t getting much enjoyment from it. It’s human nature to want more of what we like and less of what we don’t. If your partner isn’t sick, injured, or cheating on you, the reason she doesn’t want to have sex more often is because she doesn’t enjoy it. Period.

Surveys reveal that only about 30 percent of women have orgasms with intercourse. Female sexual pleasure mostly associates with her clitoris and G spot. Women often don’t have orgasm with intercourse because some sex positions don’t provide enough stimulation of these pleasure spots. Here are some positions and techniques that do provide the stimulation your woman needs to have an orgasm with intercourse. (more…)

Good sex can make for a good workout if you use the right sex positions.

No matter how much your partner pleads, you can’t substitute time in the sack for time on the treadmill. However, certain sex positions do work a woman’s muscle groups — some so much, in fact, that you might not be able to make it to the gym the next day.

Missionary

In a way, the missionary position is the physical equivalent of the old “I’m busy washing my hair” excuse — it’s the brush-off used when you’re lazy, tired, or just not that interested. But despite being one of the most passive contortions for a woman, man-on-top can still provide a pretty good workout. Read more

Now seen as a valid form of birth control, pulling out doesn’t have to be just about safety. Enjoy it with these withdrawal method sex positions.

Recent research has shown that the withdrawal method of contraception isn’t as useless as we all think it is. There is a common perception that using withdrawal (or “pulling out” as it’s referred to) is as good as doing nothing, but most of us know that, in fact, this isn’t true — it’s worked for most of us at least once, if not on a regular basis. Taking hormones and using condoms or diaphragms doesn’t work well for everyone for a variety of reasons, making the withdrawal method, in reality, a reasonably attractive option for many.

Keep in mind that some positions are better than others for executing this maneuver as they allow easy removal of the penis, and can provide some nice visuals — you get to squirt your stuff on breasts, buttocks and bellies, and enjoy this aspect of lovemaking as well as feeling more secure in your choice of birth control.

Pull-out Puppy
The Pull-out Puppy (from behind, doggy style) offers not only easy removal of the penis, but you get to come on her butt (if she agrees). While penetrating her while she’s on her hands and knees (or lying on her front, however you like to do it), right before you orgasm, pull out and lose it on her lovely rear and/or back. Read more

Sometimes a change of sex position can bring improved satisfaction. The Sun’s sex advice columnist Deidre surveys the erotic possibilities of different positions.

If you’re interested in learning about effective and satisfying positions for making love, first let me stress that it’s not compulsory to make love in lots of different positions.

Some couples have a wonderful sex life never varying from the traditional missionary position. Don’t get the idea that you have to be a contortionist to be a good lover. There is a lot of emphasis on variety in love-making these days, but it is meant to be enjoyable variety.

However, if your partner wants to experiment, do at least be willing to give it a try. If one of you favours a position the other isn’t so keen on, you can easily make love for a while in one position, and then swap over to the other’s favourite. Obviously if the man tends to climax in one position and the woman in another, it makes sense to choose the woman’s favourite first. Read more
