Performing oral sex acts (fellatio for males and cunnilingus for females) is one of the most intimate things that you can do to your spouse. Performing such an act requires so much vulnerability. When you’re vulnerable to your partner, there would be no difficulty for you to share each other in this position.

And there’s probably nothing that says “I want you” or “I crave you” than having your faces in front of each other’s genitals.

6. The koala

By its name, you can probably tell how this position is done.

Let your husband carry you, as you drape your arms over his shoulders and your legs over his hips. Husbands should position their hands as if catching your spouses buttocks to support her as you enter her.

The difficulty of this position might be 8 out of 10, with 10 being the most difficult, but if your husband likes carrying you, why not give this position a try tonight?

It’s an exceptional, intimate and satisfying position, which if it wasn’t a little bit difficult might have found its way closer to the top of the list of 10 best sex positions.  

7. The kneel

As the name implies, you and your husband will be in a kneeling position facing each other. Whether you do it on the bed or the floor, it’s your choice.

The beauty of this position is that you get close enough to your spouse as if in the missionary position; face to face with your hands-free to touch each other as well.

8. Spider

Among our list of 10 best sex positions, this one may sound the trickiest of all.

To do this position, the man sits with his legs stretched out and leans back resting on his hands for support. The woman sits straddling him facing her husband. She also leans back on her hands and can use them to help her rock back and forth

9. Reclining lotus

This position is very close to the missionary. While lying back on the bed, the woman’s legs should come close to her chest, as if doing the child’s pose with her feet in the air. The husband then supports his weight on his arms and penetrates his wife from the top.

You can modify this position to vary the angle of the vagina to achieve a different penetration. To do so, you can place a pillow under the wife’s buttocks. The pillow can also provide a support system in case the husband tires from his initial position.

Another variation that you can do to deepen the penetration is to put your wife’s ankles over your shoulder.

10. Splitting Bamboo

To achieve this position, the wife should be laying on her back with one leg stretched out and the other resting on her spouse’s shoulder. For a more straightforward example, the legs of the woman should be in an L-shaped position. The man straddles her thigh while holding on to his spouse’s raised leg to balance himself.

Splitting bamboo is a relatively comfortable position which leaves both of your wife’s hands-free to caress herself or her spouse.

The essence of consummation or making love is to bring married couples even closer to each other. This is also to teach us that as partners, the husband and wife should be able to find comfort in each other’s bodies to share in one of the most beautiful gifts that God has given us, which is sex and we hope that these positions will help you enhance your closeness further.
