The woman sits up straight on the bed, folding one leg under her so she is sitting on it, and extending her other leg along the bed. The man sits in a similar position and places his folded leg over her extended leg and his extended leg under her folded leg as he penetrates her.
This position can be tricky, and requires patience and flexibility.
The lovers can wrap their arms around each other for balance, or they can each put a hand on the bed. To enhance intimacy and intensity, the couple should stare into each other’s eyes.
Whether a couple is getting ready for a night of passion or just a few hours of stolen time, boundaries should be set.
There should be no mention of “hot topics” such as money, jobs, or children while preparing for lovemaking. Conversation should be light and fun as the mood turns towards love. Compliments and lots of eye contact can quickly soften the atmosphere.
