The best sex positions for lesbian couples

Many sex positions are automatically more enjoyable if they involve creativity in stimulation, bodily contact, and intense intimacy. There are a couple of classic sex positions for lesbian couples, like scissoring and position 69. But there are many more options!

Classic with a twist

The porn industry sometimes makes it seem like scissoring is the only sex position available for lesbian couples. Which is why many women deliberately avoid it. But rubbing your clitoris on your partner’s clitoris or thigh really does feel great. Try mixing it up with rotated scissoring. This is a fun variation where one partner lies on her belly, while the other partner lies on her back and puts her leg around her partner’s thigh.

Penetration with favourite toys

Of course you already know that penetration isn’t necessary to make sex enjoyable. But still, it’s a welcome addition. In this position, one partner lies on her back while the other partner penetrates her with a sex toy. You can use a dildo or vibrator, but of course you can also use your fingers or hands to penetrate your partner.

Missionary with a strap-on

Isn’t the missionary position boring? On the contrary! With a strap-on dildo you can enjoy this intimate position to the full extent. The benefits of the missionary position are deep penetration, bodily contact, and looking into each other’s eyes. The one wearing the strap-on is in control of the speed and depth of penetration. Of course you can take turns, so you can both enjoy intense penetration. A strap-on also makes many other sex positions possible, such as:

• Doggy style
• Spooning
• The Cowgirl

Sex in the shower

A relaxed sex position for every couple: shower sex. Stimulate and penetrate your partner with your hands. The warmth, the steam, and the tight space make this sex position even hotter. Keep your favourite lubricant close and make sure it’s silicone based, as water-based lubricant easily washes away in the shower. However, keep in mind that you can’t use silicone lubricant in combination with silicone sex toys, because it can negatively affect the material of the toy.

Female blowjob

When you think about oral sex for lesbian couples, a blowjob is probably not the first thing to come to mind. But it really is an option! A strap-on is not just for penetration. Even when using a dildo, oral sex can be one of the most intimate parts of your sexual experience. The trick is to focus on the visual experience of giving or receiving a blowjob. Plus, depending on how much space your strap-on leaves you to work with, you can simultaneously stimulate your partner’s clitoris with your hands or a toy.

Down on your knees

One partner gets down on her knees and leans back on her partner who fingers, caresses, and stimulates her. If you can’t see your partner’s face, your other senses are heightened. Listen to your partner breathing and moaning, and feel your body on hers. Sitting close to your partner with your back turned can be just as intimate as a face-to-face position. There is plenty of bodily contact and you can completely give in to your partner.

Woman on woman

This position doesn’t need much explaining. Woman to woman is one of the most enjoyable sex positions for lesbians. One partner lies down and penetrates her lover with a strap-on or her fingers. Or you can rub your clitoris on your partner’s clitoris, while you lovingly gaze into her eyes. If you use a dildo, you can also use your finger into to stimulate your partner’s anus for extra sensation. And don’t hold back on stimulating each other’s breasts and nipples. There’s a lot to remember here, but you’ll see that it all comes naturally.

All tied up

Cunnilingus and position 69 are the most standard ways to perform oral sex. If you and your partner want to experiment, try adding bondage elements to your lovemaking sessions. Use rope, ribbon, or bondage tape to tie your partner’s hands and take your sexual experiences to a higher level. One of you can be the dominant partner or you can take turns to experience both sides of bondage.

Sitting on a strap-on

Sex on a chair is fun, because you can do it anywhere you want. In the kitchen, the dining room, the living room, or the bedroom. Having sex outside the bedroom spices things up for many couples. Because what if your neighbour sees you or a passerby just happens to look through your window? In this position, one partner wears a strap-on while the other partner sits on top of it and moves up and down. The one on top is in control. She decides the rhythm and depth of penetration, and she can simultaneously use her hands to stimulate her partner.
