There are countless sex positions on the internet. But which ones are the best to drive you crazy and reach the O-town? Read below to find out.
If you type “best sex positions” on the internet, you will run into countless positions, some of which you know, some so strange that you might scratch your head in confusion. It is a confusing world, honestly. Some of them look the same with one small difference, some look like professional acrobatics.
Well, the truth is, when it comes to sexual intimacy, there’s no one-size-fits-all formula for pleasure. Every person and couple is different—what feels amazing for one may not work for another. But whether you’re with a long-term partner or exploring something new, knowing the right sex positions can elevate your experience, bring you closer emotionally and help unlock levels of pleasure you didn’t know existed.
Talking to the experts, Team Wedding Affair has gathered some information for you. Here are ten of the best sex positions designed for maximum stimulation, deeper connection and mutual satisfaction.
Missionary
Let’s start with the classic, shall we?
Often underrated because of its simplicity, missionary can be incredibly intimate and pleasurable. Think of it as the trusted brand that you will go back to after every other experiment fails.
With a few enhancements, the missionary position can be exciting too. Try placing a pillow under the receiving partner’s hips to elevate the pelvis; this helps with deeper penetration and increased stimulation. Eye contact, synchronised breathing, and kissing make this position emotionally charged and physically satisfying.

Cowgirl
This one is for the ladies.
Yes, we all know. This is the best sex position for women, and most of us will agree. It puts you in control, great for adjusting angle, depth, and rhythm. You can rock your hips, grind or bounce depending on what feels best.
Cowgirl encourages active participation, gives full control over movement and pressure, perfect for stimulation of sensitive areas. Try reverse cowgirl for a new perspective and more visual stimulation for the partner lying down.
Doggy Style
Raw, primal, and incredibly stimulating. Doggy style allows for deep penetration, which makes it ideal for hitting the G-spot. Undoubtedly one of the best sex positions for first timers, doggy style also allows access for simultaneous stimulation with fingers.
It offers deep and intense penetration with great leverage. A favourite for those who enjoy a more dominant/submissive dynamic. If you are feeling experimental, try “flat doggy,” where the receiving partner lies flat on the bed—it gives a snugger, more intense feel.
Spooning
Ideal for slow, sensual sex or lazy morning lovemaking, spooning offers full body contact, making it intimate and cosy. The angle is also fantastic for people who prefer shallow but pleasurable thrusts.
Spooning encourages intimacy, allows for gentle stimulation and is perfect for long, drawn-out sessions. It’s a great position for partners who experience pain during deeper penetration and want more control.
Standing (Against a Wall)
Standing sex is spontaneous and exciting, especially when pinned against a wall. It requires some strength and balance, but the thrill factor is off the charts. The angle offers good access and pressure on sensitive areas.
This sex position invokes urgency, passion, and allows for eye contact, kissing, and even mirror play. Just make sure to communicate and control physical strength to prevent injury. This is not a beginner’s move!

The Lotus
This seated sex position has the penetrating partner sitting cross-legged while the receiving partner sits on their lap, wrapping their arms and legs around. It’s all about intimacy, eye contact and deep, slow strokes.
The lotus combines emotional closeness with strong physical pleasure. It is ideal for you if you prioritise emotional intimacy. Try rocking together rhythmically; it can intensify the experience and allow for more control over depth and speed.
Face-Off
This one is similar to Lotus but with more freedom of movement. Both partners sit facing each other, allowing for pelvic grinding, nipple stimulation, and plenty of kissing.
Face-off encourages communication, intimacy, and gentle control over rhythm. Great for synchronised pleasure. It also allows for easy manual stimulation during intercourse.
The Butter Churner
One of the more adventurous ex positions, this involves the receiving partner lying on their back, legs over their head, while the penetrating partner kneels and thrusts downward. It’s intense and deep, so communication is key.
This position hits new angles and increases blood flow to the pelvis, which can heighten sensations. It is ideal for couples who are flexible, comfortable with each other, and want to explore kinkier dynamics.
The Bridge
In this position, the receiving partner creates a bridge with their hips lifted while the other partner enters from above. A pillow or furniture can support the back to make this easier.
Excellent for pelvic floor engagement, the bridge also offers an angle that presses against the G-spot. The only downside is that it can be physically demanding, so don’t be afraid to use props or take breaks.
Edge of the Bed
With one partner lying back on the edge of a bed or sturdy surface and the other standing or kneeling between their legs, this position combines ease with intensity. It allows for deep penetration and is perfect for adding oral or toy play into the mix.
Why does it work? Great height dynamics, leverage, and control. You can switch it up easily by lifting your legs or angling your hips.
