The best positions for exploring anal sex include lying doggy, backdoor missionary, and caboose. Herein is about positions for anal sex, including; the importance of positions during sex, lap dance, and spooning.

Anal sex is no longer a gay thing. Some heterosexuals seem to like it too. The more popular it gets, the less taboo it is, and the more people want to find ways to make it more exciting. Some people may fear engaging in anal sex because they think it may be painful, but that fear can be countered using lube. The main thing anyone who likes anal sex must remember is that using lube during anal sex can never be underrated. You may have as much anal sex as you want, but you will not have a great experience if you do not use lube.

Why not just enjoy having a doggy? A doggy will be great for you if you have sex to get off. But the people who yearn for different positions are seeking sexual pleasure. Some are trying to find positions that ensure intimacy. Sometimes you want a position that gives you a better view of your body, or you may want a position that gives you the most arousal. There could be a position that can cause you to have a climax, and there could be a position that you saw somewhere and want to try out because you are curious. Maybe you are the type of person that is ever shifty and cannot stay in one position. Sometimes different positions allow different stimulation of different parts. There are various reasons as there are people to explain why they'd have sex in a different position. The following are some positions that you may want to try out;

Lap Dance

Your partner sits on the edge of a chair or a bed, padded with some pillows for comfort. You can sit on them while guiding the penis into the rectum. This position is great for partners experienced in anal sex because the penis can get too deep due to excitement. It is an easy position. You will control how deep you want to let the penis get in. once you are comfortable, your partner can help you control the rhythm. Your partner can hold your waist and breasts as you go up and down on the penis. You can also play with your clitoris while having sex and reach his balls for more excitement. Frank (2003) revealed that the lap dance position is perfect for patterns that enjoy seduction and intimacy. Have some sexy lingerie to make it even more steamy. If the man was waiting for a lap dance only to end up being involved in anal sex, it might be one of his fantasies come true. Lap dance with a happy ending.

Lying Doggy

The lying doggy is the best style for beginners because it allows for shallow penetration, as Agard-Jones (2012) stated. The partners feel greater intimacy because they'll be close to each other, but the partner on top can brace himself with his hands for support. Most of the anal nerves are not far from the anal opening, so you do not have to go deep into the anus to go deep inside to enjoy it. You may use a pillow. The lying doggy should be called the lazy doggy because you do not have to do anything while lying there. No one will ever know you could even enjoy a short nap.

Backdoor Missionary

Rauk (2019) stated that the backdoor missionary is the missionary position -but of the anus. The position allows you to have face-to-face contact, making it more interesting. You can press your legs against his sides to control how far they can go as your partner penetrates you. Pastore & Katzman (2012) stated that you could have a pillow under your hips to elevate the pelvis properly for penetration. The partners can hold each other as they look at each other, making it more intimate. You can touch each other's nipples. Feeling each other's bodies during sex makes the partners take off the pressure of thinking about anal sex; hence, it is a great position for beginners.

Caboose Position

Caboose is slang for buttocks. The caboose position is a buttocks position because your partner sits on a bed or chair, lowers your butt on his lap, and spoons you. Your partner should lower your butt onto the penis. The caboose position is sensual and allows for the most intimacy between the partners because the bodies are close, and you can even kiss and caress each other. The caboose position is excellent for relatively experienced partners in anal sex.

Spooning

According to Örnkloo & Von Hofsten C. (2007), you both lie facing the same direction when spooning. You raise one leg slightly, and your partner enters you. For the days that you want to have anal sex but do not want to get on crazy moves, the spooning is perfect for you. The position is simple, but you can add some spice by rubbing your clitoris and massaging your partner's penis before it goes in. Spooning is position because you lie close to each other. The partner behind may hold the other partner, and it feels like there are protection hints. People who genuinely like each other tend to enjoy spooning.

Conclusion

People who want to have sex in one position all the time are usually the contented type. Complacency is the last thing you need in anal sex. We thought that only gay people would be interested in anal sex because they did not have much choice. Still, the heterosexual community joined in because we all soon discovered that the anal canal has thousands of nerves and that an anal orgasm is probable. The pursuit of orgasm has always been a never-ending goal. Therefore any sexually adventurous person should always be alert to the new things that can happen to make sex enjoyable. Finding the right positions for sex should be the first goal.
