Sex Positions - Doggie Style

Sex positions, Rear Entry or "Doggie Style", has seemed to gain popularity over the years. I’m not sure if it’s because it’s the closest thing to anal sex without really having it or if you just feel so dirty and naughty doing it. Either way, for those that may not already know, the Rear Entry position is when the man penetrates the woman's vagina from behind.

The Good, For Her
There are a few important physical reasons why women love doing it doggie style. First, this position allows for deep penetration. With the woman's body being so angled, the thrusting of the penis can stimulate the g-spot. Depending on how far bent over the woman is and how fast the man is thrusting, his testicles slap against her vagina, which can be really very exciting.

Clitoral stimulation is possible by both partners. The man can reach down, while thrusting, and rub her clitoris and massage her vulva. Or if the woman prefers, she can reach down and rub her own clitoris or vulva. This is also a great position for vibrator use because the clitoris is so accessible. The woman can wear a strap-on vibrator, or use her own hands which are completely free and available for holding onto a vibrator.

This is also a great position to introduce vibrators into sex. If the woman feels awkward about using a vibrator in front of her lover, the rear entry position is a great position to start in because the man isn't staring down at her holding the vibrator against her clit.

Many therapists suggest this position to couples who are trying to conceive because once the man ejaculates the semen is initially released near the mouth of the cervix, due to the deep penetration. Some pregnant women find more comfort having intercourse in the rear entry position rather than missionary position.

But those are not the only reasons women like the rear entry position... Besides physical, there's also mental stimulation that women get off on. Some women feel like they're being taken by their lover. There's an animalistic, I'm going to grab you and do you, sort of excitement to it. A feeling of helplessness, that I can't get away. Like I said earlier, it's also an alternative to anal sex. It's that I'm a dirty girl taking it from behind with my ass so exposed feeling that some women get off on. Anal sex is becoming a more accepted practice, but there is still a taboo surrounding it and I think the Rear Entry Position is the closest alternative.

The Not So Good, for Her
Yes, there are a lot of good reasons to start exploring the rear entry position, but as with anything, if there's good points, there's bad ones too. Most women have issues about their body, they're too fat, too thin or they think their ass is too big. So a position like this makes them feel very exposed and, to them, highlights the fact that their ass is big, regardless of whether it is or it isn't. These women are missing the boat on this one, but for a woman to really enjoy sex and even reach orgasm, she has to mentally feel good. If she's worried that her ass, sex will not be a pleasurable experience for her.

Another reason some women avoid getting down on all fours is because there's no intimacy. If you're not looking at your lover, you're not making a very personal, very intimate connection and that's extremely important. Once again, women really have to be in the right state of mind to just let go and experience pleasure, so if an intimate connection is necessary, rear entry may not be the position to get into. And to that I suggest trying it lying side by side. That will definitely add some intimacy.

It's demeaning to women, is another popular reason floating around out there in women's minds. Somehow women feel like they're giving up control by being taken from behind. That's not true, because the man doesn't have to be the one in control. He doesn't have to be the one to do the thrusting. He can stand there and the woman can push up against him. It's similar to the reverse cowgirl, woman-on-top position but turn it 90 degrees anti-clockwise.

If a woman has a tipped uterus or a very well endowed partner, this position can be painful and/or uncomfortable for her because his penis will be hitting her uterus or cervix upon every thrust. If that's the case, your lover should really control how deeply he penetrates. Shallow thrusting may be in order.

The Good, for Him
Men are very visual creatures, so this position gives him very naughty views. He has a great view of his penis penetrating his lover's vagina. He also has a very nice view of her exposed buttocks and; by simply tilting his head to the right or left, he can also see her swinging breasts, which for a breast man, is extremely exciting.

Besides the visual stimulation, there's also ease of stimulating. Just because he's not facing his lover, doesn't mean she's out of touch. Men can easily reach around to fondle his lover's breasts, clitoris or vulva. If she's into any kind of anal play, her anus is right in front of him for the taking. Some women like their hair pulled and he can easily do that in this position too.

Another plus to the rear entry position for men is the control that he can have. Deeply penetrating a woman, that deep, hard thrusting action can be very exciting for some men. Most men fantasise about grabbing their lover from behind and entering them. Its animalistic features are what make it such a desired position to be in.

As far as physical exertion goes, there's not too much to it. There's less work for the man in this position than the traditional missionary position. And if the woman takes the driver's seat, he just has to stand there, hold on and enjoy the view. Now, depending how hard and fast she rides him will depend on how difficult it is to stand in that one position. With some women, you really have to hold on.

The Not So Good, for Him
There really aren’t' too many reasons here, many men don't need that intimate connection that some women need. One thing I have learned is that some men don't like to be ridden hard and fast in that position. Sometimes it's just too much, too quickly and it will cause them to reach orgasm very fast and they either, didn't get to feel that much because of the fact that it was too hard, or it happened so quickly they missed it. And still some men find it such an exciting position, because of all the reasons above, that it's just too much stimulation all at once, seeing such an arousing view and it feeling so good. But that's no reason to not do it. That could just be negative, but most men still do it, with no complaints.

How to Spice It Up
There are numerous ways to spice up the traditional rear entry position. It can be done with both partners standing, the woman bends over. It can be done lying down side by side, for comfort the woman can put her bottom leg between her lover's leg. The woman can kneel on the floor and lay the upper half of her body across the bed. There's also the wheelbarrow position in which the man lifts and supports the woman's legs while she holds on to the back of a chair and rests her forearms on the seat of the chair. Her legs are also wrapped around his waist for additional support. PLEASE NOTE: Make sure you are both strong enough and know exactly what you are doing before even attempting this.

Another little manoeuvre to try once the man penetrates the woman is for the woman to bring her legs together and squeeze slowly and gently. This provides heightened stimulation for both partners. Just make sure the man has penetrated the woman and that she squeezes gently, as to not strangle the man's penis. By the woman tightening her muscles she experiences more stimulation and he experiences a tighter place for thrusting.

Since men are visual creatures, put on a show. Gyrate against him, slap your own buttocks. Grab your breasts. If you can reach around and grab his testicles, do so, but gently.
