The missionary position is one of the most common and traditional sexual positions. Here’s a general guide:
- Positioning:
- One partner lies on their back with their legs slightly apart.
- The other partner lies on top, facing them, with their bodies aligned.
- Comfort and Support:
- Use pillows or cushions for support under the lower back or head if needed for comfort.
- Adjust leg positions for variety or better access (e.g., legs bent at the knees or wrapped around the top partner).
- Communication:
- Talk with your partner to ensure mutual comfort and consent. Adjust speed, depth, or angle to suit both partners’ preferences.
- Intimacy:
- This position allows for face-to-face contact, making it great for kissing, eye contact, and emotional connection.
- Safety:
- Use contraception or protection as appropriate to your situation to prevent unwanted pregnancy or STIs.
