Sex Positions – Standing

This position often makes people think of the  quickie or highly erotic yet risky sex in elevators or alleys.

Standing is actually one of the more difficult positions to achieve. In order for the man to be able to be at the proper height and angle to insert his penis into the woman’s vagina, the shorter of the two partners usually the woman needs to find a way to be at just the right level.

She might need to wrap her legs around his waist, or have the man hold her up, or stand on a step or something else to gain a little height. If you’re a woman and you anticipate one of these stand-up encounters, you could try something sexy and show up wearing really high heels. No matter how they do it, for couples who are different heights, it often takes great flexibility and balance to enjoy sex in this position.

A couple can also have sex in the standing position from behind. The man can penetrate the woman from behind as she leans against a wall, or bedpost (or shower stall, or refrigerator, or�you get the point). In this position, the penis can
easily enter the vagina, which is angled right at his lower body. If the woman bends over before he enters her from behind, it’s even easier.

When a couple is in the standing position, their hands are usually busy trying to hold the woman in the proper position. And if they’re doing it while standing from behind, she is faced in the opposite direction. Therefore, this is not the best
position for caressing or contact. Because it’s usually associated with hot, steamy encounters, it can be an exciting variation that you might want to try.
