The “68” sex position is a playful variation of the classic “69” position. In this position, one partner focuses on giving pleasure to the other, rather than both simultaneously engaging in mutual oral stimulation, as in the 69 position. The name “68” humorously suggests, “You do me, and I’ll owe you one.”
How to Do the 68 Position
- Receiving Partner:
- Lie comfortably on your back on a bed or another supportive surface.
- Keep your legs relaxed, either slightly apart or positioned as your partner prefers.
- Giving Partner:
- Straddle the receiving partner, positioning your body above them, facing their head.
- Lean forward and focus on performing oral or manual stimulation on the receiving partner.
Differences Between 68 and 69
- In 68, only one partner provides pleasure at a time, making it less about mutual stimulation and more about focusing entirely on the receiving partner.
- It allows the giving partner to concentrate on pleasing their partner without the distraction of being stimulated simultaneously.
Benefits of the 68 Position
- Focused Pleasure:
- The receiving partner can fully relax and enjoy the experience without needing to reciprocate immediately.
- Comfort:
- It’s less physically demanding than the 69 position, as only one partner is actively engaged at a time.
- Playful Dynamic:
- This position can be part of a fun and teasing build-up to other activities.
Tips for Comfort and Enjoyment
- Communicate Preferences:
- Discuss comfort levels, pressure, and technique to enhance pleasure.
- Use Pillows:
- Place pillows under the receiving partner’s back or head for support.
- Take Turns:
- Switch roles after a while to ensure mutual satisfaction.
The “68” is an intimate, lighthearted position perfect for partners who want to focus on giving and receiving pleasure individually while keeping things fun and relaxed.
