Doggy style is a fan favourite for plenty of people! And no wonder — it gives the giver a glorious view, while the receiver enjoys deep penetration and G-spot or P-spot stimulation. That makes this position a perfect match for lesbian and gay couples too.
It’s safe to say that lots of men — and surprisingly many women — are big fans of bums. Want to bet your partner could happily stare at yours all day long if they could? And the same the other way around. But sadly, that’s not how it works.
During sex it absolutely can work, especially when you’re doing doggy style together. But fancy something different? Try these positions instead — the best variations on doggy style. As a cheeky bonus, we’ll throw in a few tips to make each one even more fun.
Doggy style refresher
It might seem like an easy position, but don’t be fooled — most variations require a bit more practice. The classic version is fairly simple: the receiver gets on hands and knees, the partner kneels behind, penetrates the receiver and holds onto their hips firmly. The giver can place their legs between or beside their partner’s thighs. Thanks to this position, the glans gets strong stimulation, and the deep penetration hits the G-spot or P-spot — which can lead to a sensational orgasm.
Standing Doggy
The Standing Doggy is essentially the same as regular doggy style, but standing up. We’re not making it overly complicated. You can also have your partner lean over a table, or try this one in the shower. Because you can penetrate deeply in this position, the glans, G-spot or P-spot all get a thorough workout. As the receiver, lean slightly forward so your partner has good access. As the giver, you can grip the hips for extra stability.
Reverse Cowgirl
The Reverse Cowgirl is brilliant for vaginal stimulation, but of course also perfect for anal. As with any doggy-style position, the view is fantastic, and the pleasure is right up there too.
Tip! Instead of resting on your knees, try a squat position for extra pleasure.
When you’re on top, a whole world opens up. You’re in control and you decide exactly how deep and how fast.
Rimming Doggy
You don’t even technically have to take your underwear off for this one — but you can. You can simply pull it aside and your partner has free range. From this angle you can stimulate the anus and vagina, or the clitoris. As a true bum-lover, you probably won’t mind getting up close. To make it extra fun, use a clitoral stimulator or a penis stimulator during the rimjob.
Sofa Seduction
With Sofa Seduction you give doggy style a slightly different — and slightly easier — twist. As the giver, you can simply stand upright. That dramatically reduces the chance of cramp in your legs or feet (and let’s be honest, doggy cramp happens far too often!). For this position you could also use a chair, the kitchen counter, a table or even the washing machine. Because you’re standing, you can probably keep going for longer.
Flat Doggy
Anything that works on hands and knees can also work lying down. This position is barely different from classic doggy in execution, but it feels totally different. The bottom partner lies comfortably on their stomach. By tilting their pelvis back, the bum lifts a little, making it easier for the giver to enter. The giver lies as far over their partner as possible, supporting themselves on knees and hands or elbows.
Lever Doggy
With Lever Doggy you make doggy style a touch more challenging. The giver lifts the receiver’s leg, allowing for slightly deeper penetration. The leg can also be used to pull the partner closer and set the pace. Be aware: this version is harder on the receiver because they have to engage their core muscles for balance. Think of it as a super sexy workout!
