Position of the Week: Love Tug

Enjoy a close embrace with Love Tug. If you’re a softie at heart, you’ll love how this position keeps things cosy – all with the possibility of penetrating them from behind.

How?

One partner gets on hands and knees with their legs spread slightly apart. The other partner kneels behind them and hugs them around the waist. Once in position, the giving partner can use their hands to stimulate the receiver’s nipples, vulva, penis or testicles.

Why?

You'll feel sexy and sensual, focusing on intimacy and foreplay rather than rushing into penetration.

If penetration’s what you desire, that’s OK too since the transition will be super smooth in this position. Plus, you’ve got the lovely deep angles of doggy style, with the closeness of spooning. What’s not to like?

Try

Love Tug gets more tantalising when you start with nipple suckers, which heighten sensitivity as you get ready for nipple play. If you’re the giving partner, try teasing your lover’s nipples for as long as possible. They’ll be tingling with anticipation by the time you’re finished.

Make it even easier

If you do go for penetration, make sure you’ve got plenty of lube keep things slick and smooth.

Meanwhile, the receiving partner could lean against a wall or headboard if bending over doesn’t suit.

Make it even better

While you’re going to town on those external pleasure zones, either partner can wear a vibrating cock ring to stimulate their shaft and testicles. The giving partner could also insert a butt plug, stimulating their prostate while they pleasure their lover.

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.
