Position of the Week: Feel the Lovehoney

Get close to your lover and feel connected with this ultra sexy and ultra cosy move. The Feel the Lovehoney sex position encourages you to take your time, get close, and enjoy each other...

How?

Start with one partner on top, receiving penetration. Once you’re comfy, the receiver can wrap their arms around the giver, bringing your bodies close. Lean slowly until you’re both lying on your sides, still fully inserted.

As the receiving partner, place one leg over your lover’s hip, to create this super comfy sideways angle. Caress each other's hips and thighs, enjoying that sweet skin-to-skin connection.

For an even more sensual shared feeling, you can slip a wearable couple’s toy, like this one by Lovehoney mon ami, inside the receiver. The silky soft silicone and slim design feels discreet between your bodies, while the internal vibrations will send pleasurable shivers down both your spines.

Why?

Share nearness, body heat, and intimacy with your partner – but make it effortless. The sideways angle takes the pressure off the giver, who won’t have to work so hard at pumping away. Instead, you can go at a slower, more sensual pace, which is great for a long, relaxed session.

Think Sunday morning in bed with your loved one, making the most of a little extra “us” time before the day begins. It’s all about feeling unhurried, taking the quality (and sexy) time together you’ve been missing. Give yourself a moment to explore each other and rediscover your connection.

Make it even easier

If you have mobility issues, try doing this position against a wall, bedhead or sofa back to have something to lean against for extra body support.

If lifting your leg over your partner’s hip is a little tricky, use a rolled towel to support your butt or ankle, or get your partner to lean forwards so your leg doesn’t have to reach as far. Slow, steady and sensual is what we’re aiming for here, so just communicate and adjust to what feels good for both of you.

Make it even better

While you’re luxuriating in the slow, decadent vibe, take it in turns to massage each other. It’ll help you both relax and make the whole experience feel even more indulgent.

Lightly massage your lover’s neck and shoulders with circular finger motions – but be sure to go slow! Taking time over your lover’s body feels more relaxing and special than rushed motions.

Gently kneed your lover’s butt with a body massager to release any lower back tension. Add a generous amount of massage oil for that smooth glide over skin – you can drip some between you and enjoy the silky, warm feeling of rubbing against each other, too.

Make it even kinkier

A blindfold can heighten your senses – and your anticipation – making everything a little more intense. You don’t need any special gear – a scarf, tie, or sleep mask will work.

But if you’re thinking about adding a touch of playful restraint to his position, consider getting a proper bondage kit. Bondage cuffs, like the ones in this set, are designed to restrain you without chafing or cutting off your circulation – and can be easily removed.

With one partner a little “restricted,” the other can take charge, adding a bit of adventure to this intimate position. Playing with power exchange as a couple can make you feel even more connected – since you need place your trust in each other and communicate so carefully about your boundaries.

Not the position for you?

We're working to make sure that everyone is represented on our website, regardless of who you love, so we'll be using a variety of gender depictions in our Position of the Week posts. This will include straight, gay, lesbian, and gender neutral couples, but all positions will have details in the description of how to make them work for your own relationship dynamic.
