7 Sex Positions That Will Make You Forget About Your Bed

Standing sex postures are underappreciated in the sex world. Sure, a nice, warm, plush bed is always appealing, but standing sex positions give you and your partner the opportunity to be even more creative and adventurous with how you pleasure each other and achieve orgasm. Standing sex positions also allow you and your partner to have sex almost anyplace (legally and consensually! ), which may really heat things up between you.

While some standing sex positions are just variations of other sex positions you're familiar with, others need you and your partner to be a little more clever, creative, and flexible, making for a more enjoyable experience at the end of the day. Furthermore, standing sex is fluid; when excitement rises, you and your partner can easily swap positions, places, switch between penetrative and oral sex, and switch between giving and receiving. You might even forget about your bed since you're having so much fun.

Before you and your lover get down and dirty, have a look at these seven standing sex positions.

Standing Sex Position: Doggy Style Standing

The standing doggy style sex position is simple: the receiving partner lies doggy style on the edge of a bed or surface, while the providing partner stands behind them and penetrates them from behind, utilizing their partner's hips as an anchor. This posture allows for deeper penetration, as well as the possibility of G-spot or prostate stimulation, if that is a priority for either partner.

Upright Missionary is a standing sex position.

Missionary sex is a timeless classic that doesn't have to be "boring." Upright missionary sex allows you and your lover to move away from the bed to wherever you like. The receiving partner stands with their back against a wall as the giving partner stimulates and penetrates from the front in the most basic standing missionary sex position. Because the penetrating partner isn't relying on their arms to support their entire body, this position can be easier for them.

Standing Sex Position: Oral Sex (Standing)

Everything you love about oral sex, but in a standing position. While the other conducts oral sex while kneeling, you or your spouse can stand against a wall, a countertop, or almost anyplace else. (Kneel on a pillow or cushion if you know you'll be doing this for a while.) This posture is equally thrilling for both cunnilingus and anilingus and is a great alternative to penetrative sex.

The Butter Churner is a standing sex position.

The Butter Churner sex position is a lot better than it sounds, however it does demand a little more effort and flexibility than the others. The bottom partner will lie on their back while the top partner vertically elevates their partner's legs, stands between them, and softly squats to penetrate their partner. The Butter Churner is a challenging posture to hold for long periods of time, but it's one worth trying.

The Lift is a standing sex position.

The lift is a traditional standing sex position in which the penetrating partner lifts the receiver up so that the recipient's legs are wrapped around their partner's waist as they're being entered. Resting either the receiver's or the giver's back against a wall, or even the receiver's bottom comfortably against the edge of a table or countertop, can provide a little extra support.

The Wheelbarrow is a standing sex position.

The Wheelbarrow is another fascinating standing sex position that demands some coordination but is still fun. The penetrating partner will stand between the receiver's legs and lift them, allowing them to comfortably penetrate their partner, while the recipient supports their upper body with their arms.

The T Stand is a standing sex position.

Another position that stresses oral sex, specifically cunnilingus, is the T Stand. The partner doing the oral should lie on their back with their head just off the corner or edge of the bed in this position. As they receive oral, the receiving partner should stand over their partner with their knees on either side of their partner's head, similar to a modified variation of face sitting.
