6 Plus-Size Sex Positions for Great Sex in a Bigger Body

When your body is larger, some sex positions don't make sense. I already threw my copy of 101 Positions for Better Sex! across the room, so feel free to do the same. The fact is, you're already headed for plenty of fun sex if you make a few adjustments to fit bigger bums and stomachs and, if you like, add some toys.

According to Michael Grey, a certified marriage and family therapist and sexologist, "great sex is about communication and connection." Penetration isn't usually the only factor. Using a vibrator, toy, or prop to provide additional comfort is perfectly acceptable.

There are many things to keep you occupied, ranging from plus-size sex positions you can experiment with to ideas for changing positions for comfort and enjoyment. Discover the top new sex positions for plus-size bodies by reading on.

Tips for having sex in a bigger body

If you haven't been reminded recently, sex is for people of all shapes and sizes, and you deserve to enjoy sex that is hot, passionate, and mind-blowing!

People with larger bodies can adopt a variety of sexual positions and modify sex to fit their needs. In addition to offering comfort, pillows and wedges enable deeper penetration.

Although buying sex benches and chairs can be enjoyable, Michael suggests using home furniture, such as dressers, couches, and low bookcases, to improve accessibility and comfort. And treat yourself to some curvy women's beautiful lingerie—you have it, show it off!

Above all, have fun. You and your partner may not be able to fit into every position, but you may still have a lot of fun by making adjustments. Additionally, if something doesn't work, laugh and try something else.

Edge of Glory

Get into position: Edge of Glory provides a sample pack of penetration depths by increasing or decreasing thrust speed. While the other partner lies on their back with their legs up and their butt up to the bed's edge, resting on the giver's shoulders, the penetrating partner stands at the bed's edge.

Why it feels good: You can make direct eye contact with your companion in this intimate position.

"When you face each other, you can establish many connections," Michael explains. Additionally, it allows the providing spouse to deliver clitoral stimulation simultaneously.

How to spice it up: Edge of Glory frees up both hands so you can use them or a vibrator to flex your partner's or your own clitoris.

Modifications: Try this modified variation of Doggy Style if resting on your back is too uncomfortable: To improve access, the receiver rests on their front with a wedge or pillow beneath their hips. The standing partner elevates their partner's legs after approaching from behind. To reduce the weight, the receiving partner can bend their legs and place their feet on their partner's back.

Side Honey

Get into position: On the side, honey is A good spooning position with a twist. With their knees bent and their legs together, the receiving partner rests on their side. To determine the most comfortable position, experiment with how much you're turned to the side.

The penetrating partner places their foot on the bed for balance and bends the other leg before getting on one knee from behind.

Why it feels good: A plus-size penetrator can have greater control and stability without putting pressure on their stomach by bending one knee rather than crouching on both knees. Try Side Honey for a change of pace if you enjoy Doggie Style but need something new.

How to spice it up: You might be able to masturbate while your partner's penis penetrates you, depending on how much space you have between your legs and stomach. For added enjoyment (and perhaps to maintain a rock-hard erection), consider a vibrating cock ring.

Modifications: Using a penile sleeve or extender can add some extra length or girth, but this posture may make penetration harder for larger men with smaller penises. You can alter the angle of penetration by elevating your rear end with a pillow beneath your hips. To gain a deeper penetration, the penetrating partner may grasp their partner's hips while thrusting if they are larger in stature.

Liberated Lover

Get into position: The Cowgirl, a traditional female-on-top sex position, is comparable to the Liberated Lover. The person on top, however, leans back and grips their partner's legs in this situation.

While the person on top straddles them, facing forward in a kneeling position, the bottom partner rests on their back with their legs extended. Once the receiving partner is within, grind your hips back and forth or bounce up and down.

You're doing it correctly if you're both having fun.

Why it feels good: The individual lying down has unrestricted access to their partner's hot parts in this posture. Use your hands or a vibrating wand to provide the partner on top with clitoral stimulation to liven up the Liberated Lover. The person on top can rest their weight on their knees and lap by bending back a little, preventing their stomach from getting in the way.

How to spice it up: This role might have some — ahem — more constrained spaces. Consider using a little massager for additional stimulation for the partner on top. Additionally, angle is crucial; adjust the depth of penetration by experimenting with your hip movements. To achieve an excellent G-spot position, lean even farther back.

Modifications: You could place your hands on the floor or bed to relieve some of the weight on your partner's thighs, but if the person on top is larger, they don't have to worry about their stomach pressing down on the person lying down. Do your knees hurt? Instead, try crouching over your spouse or kneeling on pillows.

Doggy Style

Get into position: A standard sex position that can give sex a passionate, animalistic vibe is the "doggie style." While the giver kneels behind the recipient (and takes in the scenery), the recipient gets on their hands and knees.

As the receiver, you can arch your back a little if it is more comfortable for you. As the recipient, you can take charge and thrust yourself, or your lover can thrust from behind with their penis or strap-on dildo. Dog, ooo!

Why it feels good: By putting the recipient on their hands and knees, Doggy allows you to penetrate considerably more deeply. If the receiver has a vulva, it also provides G-spot stimulation. In this deep penetration position, lubricant will add comfort and slickness; therefore, it's always a good suggestion. To simplify access, the receiving partner can hold their cheeks from behind and spread them wide.

How to spice it up: Lean down on the receiving partner's forearms to raise the hips and butt, and experiment with varying depths. If you want something new, try a vibrating butt plug. Another way to make this position even more intimate is to kiss the receiving spouse on the back.

Modifications: To relieve pressure back pain and allow for deeper penetration, place a wedge or pillow beneath the receiver's stomach. If deep penetration isn't your thing, you can also attempt the starfish sex position.

Backstage Pass

Get into position: Backstage Pass would appeal to you if you enjoy anal play. Leaning slightly back, the providing partner sits or squats behind their partner. In front of the receiver, the receiving partner straddles their ass over their face.

By raising or lowering their body as desired, the recipient can choose how much stimulation they want.

Why it feels good: Licking and kissing your partner's anus, often known as "rimming," can make them feel good about one of their most private areas. They will beg for more if you combine rimming with clitoral stimulation or a frontal hand job.

How to spice it up: Try mutual masturbation if you are balanced. While the seated partner reaches down to touch themselves, the standing partner stimulates themself. For something different, try a clitoral suction vibrator. Or include anal play in other mouthwatering lesbian sexual positions.

Modifications: Depending on your unique body size and strengths, you might need to raise or lower your body to change your posture. The receiving partner can give their spouse a fantastic perspective by leaning over a piece of furniture rather than standing up straight.

Bondage Queen

Get into position: Bondage Queen is similar to Queening, but with bondage instead, if you're comfortable with bondage and want to try something different.

The person on top is on their hands and knees, facing backward, straddling their partner, who is tied up. Let your partner feast as you scoot up to their face.

Why it feels good: Although Bondage Queen strongly emphasizes power dynamics, it can also offer intimacy and pleasure to both lovers. According to Michael, trusting your partner is the most critical aspect of bondage, which adds additional dimensions centered on excitement and exploration. For people who like to experiment with submission and domination, this role may be ideal.

How to spice it up: Give your partner oral sex when they're lying down to give them even more pleasure. Lean back and forth while stroking your nipples along your lover's skin if you're on top and have breasts. Or, to increase your partner's excitement, tease them with a feather tickler. For even more sensory exploration, include a blindfold.

Modifications: Use pillows or cushions to make the submissive's neck more comfortable. If your weight puts pressure on the submissive's tummy, consider using a sex chair.
