In the wonderful world of sex, there’s getting down and then there’s getting down. For connoisseurs of a sensual romp — we’re talking about our true scholars and geeks when it comes to sex and sexuality — there’s always a sexy new position, a new sensation or experience to try out with your partners for any occasion.

Don’t get us wrong; we’re always down for a casual quickie or some moderately augmented missionary to give a quick O, but why not branch out and take things to a whole new level? After all, your sex life is a living, breathing and evolving thing that deserves a bit of TLC to keep you and your partner(s) entertained and satisfied through the years. Sometimes all it takes is a brand-spanking-new position to get the party started and to reignite some important conversations about what feels best in the act. (It’s okay if those things change or if you just want to test something out!) Speaking of spankings, you can throw one of those in for good measure too. You know, if that’s what you’re into.

We also know you’re busy and you don’t want to waste that precious alone time researching impossible pretzel-like contortions to try out. Instead, we’ve compiled 69 fun positions we think you should try ASAP. Ironically, good old-fashioned 69 isn’t on the list, because as the very wise Carrie Bradshaw once wrote, “It’s my belief that the last time anyone actually enjoyed the 69 position was in 1969” — and we felt that.

So here you go: 68 (Nice) sex positions to try out

We have all heard of — or even done — the notorious 69 sex position, where a couple maneuvers their bodies so both their mouths and genitalia match up perfectly.

But what about its lesser-known, but just as erotic, neighbor … the 68?

This oral sex position may not be able to deliver mutual pleasure, but it is superbly designed to activate those often forgotten erogenous zones: the anus and testicles.

While the 69 position allows both partners to give and receive oral sex, the 68 focuses on one partner getting all the action.

This variation of the 69 has one partner lying on her back while the other also lies on his back but on top of the giver with his head tucked between her thighs and his genitals above her mouth. With the receiver’s legs spread open, the giver has full access not just to his penis, but also to the neglected testicles and anus, making the 68 the ultimate blow job experience.

The ’68’ is a new variant on the classic, but rather than giving pleasure to both partners, it provides immense pleasure to one person – for those selfish moments that we all want and need from time to time.

If you are a woman or vagina-owner, you position your vulva over your partner’s mouth, giving the them – aka the giver – full access to everything they wish to explore, and leaving you to concentrate on how it feels.

As well as being the ultimate in oral sex pleasure, the 68 leaves your hands free to do some exploring and masturbation (maybs even some nipple play?). You could even get a clit vibrator in there to provide extra stimulation while you enjoy the ride.

Tips And Tricks To Try When Doing The 68 Sex Position

With the woman on top, the 68 not only makes it conveniently easy for your guy to eat you out but also allows his hands to roam all over your body. Plus, you can turn him on even more, or stimulate your own orgasm further, by masturbating while he’s performing.

For an even kinkier version of the 68 sex position, the man can wrap his legs around her neck and pin her down while she lies spread eagle for him.

If the woman is on the bottom, she is in the perfect spot to lick and suck his penis and testicles (which often get no attention during a traditional blow job) and swirl your tongue in his anus to perform analingus — more commonly referred to as a rim job.

This oral sex position is perfect for its versatility and ability to enhance sexual exploration. With a normal 69, you are restricted to just one form of sexual play, but with this obscure variation, you have a multitude of sexual acts at your disposal to try.

Despite the alluring appearance of the 68, the position is often regarded as rather difficult and challenging.

To make things a bit more comfortable, the receiver should support their body by propping themselves up on their elbows or forearms. However, “netizens” have had reservations in experimenting with this particular position, citing concerns about managing to hold up the weight of their partner.

Another user helped address this concern by suggesting a slight modification. Try turning on your side if you find supporting your partner’s weight uncomfortable or vice versa.

To further aid in comfort, the giver should have a pillow placed behind her head to reduce neck strain.

CONSIDER THIS: A lady goes to the doctor and complains that her husband is losing interest in sex. The doctor gives her a pill, but warns her that it’s still experimental. He tells her to slip it into his mashed potatoes at dinner, so that night, she does just that. About a week later, she’s back at the doctor, where she says, “Doc, the pill worked great! I put it in the potatoes like you said! It wasn’t five minutes later that he jumped up, raked all the food and dishes onto the floor, grabbed me, ripped all my clothes off, and ravaged me right there on the table!” The doctor says, “I’m sorry, we didn’t realize the pill was that strong! The foundation will be glad to pay for any damages.” “Nah,” she says, “that’s okay. We’re never going back to that restaurant anyway.”
