When it comes to vaginal sex positions, one of the most common is the Lotus. The penetrating partner must assume the lotus posture on the floor or bed, crossed-legged or with legs spread, as depicted below, in order to perform this position. A "true" lotus sex position would not involve spreading one's legs apart, even though this is the more convenient option.
Spouses take turns straddling each other's laps once the penetrating partner assumes position. Legs are wrapped around the waist of the penetrating partner by the receiving partner. In this posture, the partner doing the penetrating can enter the partner doing the receiving. Another option for support is for the receiving partner to wrap their arms around the torso of the penetrating partner. If the penetrating partner needs additional support, they can also grab onto the receiving partner. In this posture, instead of thrusting, the couple gently rock back and forth.
The Lotus sex position has a long history of practice among humans. It may have been around for a lot longer than the third century AD, when it was mentioned in the Kama Sutra. Because of the joy it may bring to couples, it has been popular for a long time.
Many other names have been coined for the Lotus sex position, including Lotus Blossom and Crossed Legs. The Yab-Yum posture is the name given to it in tantra.
For couples seeking a more sensual experience, the Lotus sex position is a great option to consider. Because it's a face-to-face posture, it promotes eye contact and breathing coordination between partners. Additionally, they are in an ideal position to embrace, kiss, and caress one another.
Neither person can really thrust while in this position, but they can grind on each other by rocking back and forth. The allure of this posture is amplified by the gradual, sensuous motion. Additionally, it can bring on an orgasmic response and heighten sensual pleasure. Take into consideration that although orgasms are possible, the primary goal of this position is to strengthen the bond between lovers rather than to facilitate sexual release.
By slipping their hands under their partner's arms and gripping their shoulders, the receiving partner can slightly change the posture. When you and your penetrating partner use each other's shoulders as props, you can grind and rock more easily. Another way to trigger the G-spot and get deeper penetration is for the receiving partner to lean back slightly.
Another way a penetrating partner can make their spouse more happy is by freely moving their hands around. The penetrating partner can use their finger or sex toy to enter their partner's anus in this ideal posture.
While the Lotus sex position is simple to execute, the penetrating partner does require some flexibility to bend their legs into it. Those with limited range of motion could benefit from the extended leg position. Though it's a gentler way to have sex, the penetrative partner still needs to be strong enough to keep their partner seated.
Pillows or sex furniture (such as the Jaz or Liberator Wedge) wedged behind the butt or knees of the penetrating partner can provide additional support if needed. At any point when you feel weary, you can lean back against them without adjusting your position. As an additional option, you might try performing the Lotus position close to a wall and leaning back onto its sturdy surface to relax your abdominal muscles.
The partner doing the piercing must be cautious not to sit or lean on the ankles of the partner doing the receiving. Joint pain or injury could result from the strain this puts on the joints.
