    A variation on missionary position

    Ladies: Since the most common position among lovers is missionary I'd like to ask if you've tried this variation: Woman is on her back with her knees pulled way back to her chest, or if she is able, she tucks her knees behind her elbows or even behind her shoulders. Some women are flexible enough to even interlock their ankles behind their neck (I think this is known in Yoga as Nidrasana). The man then enters her either standing at the side of the bed or kneeling in front of her on the bed, or he can position himself on top of her. Have you ladies tried getting into this position? Do you feel sexy while flexed like this? Is intercourse pleasurable for you in this position? Does your man enjoy it? Just curious.

    I'm not the most flexible person out there, but yeah we have done something of that nature (trying to have a baby too, so that's been kind of a fan favorite lately). It's actually very pleasurable and my husband seems to enjoy it too. There have been times we've ended up laughing and having to switch it up because for some reason I get a shortage of breath from being like that for so long... but aside from our silly times, yes, it's actually a really good position to find ourselves in. Just have to stay within my flexibility limits

      Not flexible enough for my legs to go behind my shoulders lol... When we do missionary a lot of the times my knews are pressed against me and legs on his shoulders.

      Also missionary is not the most common position, at least not us lol

        I can't twist like a pretzel either, but like Pinky described, sure, all the time.

          We've done positions like that. She is extremely flexible. If we could only choose one position though, it would probably be her on top.

            Well me and wife very rarely missionary mostly doggy. Once in a great while she will do the feet by her head and I can go all the way deep inside her this position but she can only hold this for 10 mins tops the campy comes in her hamstring, she is 50 so she still pretty limper for her age lol.
            When out driving always turn left. Then, should you become lost, you can find your way home by reversing the procedure and always turning right.

              I'm not that flexible but on occasion do bring my knees up. I find we do missionary when it's about making love and we want to be as close as possible and really intimate with each other. You know, being able to kiss and go slow.....

                That is very intimate position as you right allows for some very intimate kissing as very erotic as well.

                  I can't get my legs up that far, but usually during missionary I will bring my knees up and cross my ankles behind his back, sort of hugging him to me with my legs. I find it very loving and it excites him a lot.

                    Yeah, that's very intimate.
