The flat iron
The flat iron might just be the gold standard of sex positions that allow for very deep penetration, especially if you prefer not to go on top! The closeness of you and your partner's bodies in this position also increases the sense of intimacy, and best of all, this position can be enjoyed by couples of all sexual orientation (with a few adjustments).

A bit like doggy style lying down, the receptive partner (the one who will penetrated), lies face down with a pillow under their hips for elevation, legs out straight. Their partner then enters them from behind (in the same position as during missionary).

The benefits of this position
This position not only provides deep penetration but a lot of extra stimulation.For vagina owners, expect to feel extra pressure on your clitoris and g spot, since the weight of your partner will press you up against the bed. The same applies for the prostate if the receptive partner is a penis owner and you're trying the anal version of this position.

So why not try it out, we hope you have some fun!
