Having covered missionary and cowgirl , let’s get down and dirty to doggy style . There’s something primal about this rear entry position. If it’s good for the rest of the world’s mammals, it may work for you.

The penis enters the vagina from the opposite direction of the missionary and cowgirl  positions. You may be able to find great G spot  stimulation in this angle. Here’s a tip: the man should try swaying his hips instead of thrusting. Try to rub the penis head in small circles right at her G spot . Don’t be a typical bonehead here: ask for directions! This rear entry position also gives the man a free hand for clitoral stimulation. He may want to stop thrusting, or even pull out for a bit, when she gets close to orgasm . This is a great position for simultaneous orgasming .

Women may feel that they have less control in doggie style, but her control just comes in a slightly different form. If she wants deeper penis penetration, she can arch her back upward, lower her chest, and spread her legs wider. On the other hand, she can go shallower by pulling her hips down. Explore these options to see if you can find a wonderful stimulation.

A word of warning for the male of the species: since this position can produce deep penis entry at a different angle, be gentle on that first long push. Mashing into her cervix  is as bad as her hitting you in the testicles. If she indicates any pain, don’t take it as a compliment on your amazing “hugeness.” Instead, follow one of the most important (and ignored) rules of Christianity: Don’t be a Jerk.

Here are some doggie style variations you may want to try:

1.     Basic Doggy : She is on all fours and he mounts her from the rear. This can occur on the floor or on a bed. I suppose it could be performed while riding down a zip line, though the attendants would have to help you hook up the safety lines appropriately.

2.     Upright Doggy: She’s on her knees with torso upright and he’s on his knees behind her. In this position, she can twist around and kiss her partner. You can also push up against a sofa backrest or a wall for a different feel.

3.     Corkscrew Doggy: She kneels facing a couch and puts one leg up on the couch; he has one knee on the ground and the other under her knee on the couch. This position provides really deep penis penetration, so to paraphrase Sergeant Phil Esterhaus from Hill Street Blues, “Be careful in there.”

4.     Laying Doggy: This position has lots of options. During or after a back massage, he can slide in while kneeling behind her while she lies face down. You can also use a bunch of pillows to build some marvelous bridges. Vary the pillow orientation so the penis rubs against different vaginal locations (G spot  lookout).

5.     Standing Doggy: Like most standing sex positions, this one requires that you two are just the right height. In this position, the man doesn’t have to lean, so he has both hands available to put to good use.

Dog in the Water: If you have an Endless Pool, this is a marvelous doggy style  variation to try. She will hold on to the bar and lean in to the current generator while he goes behind her. As the current rushes over her entire body, he can penetrate and rub her clitoris . Her legs can rest on the ground between his or float outside of his. This is a great position...you may want to purchase an Endless Pool just to try it. Though the dealer frowned upon trying this in their showroom.
