No | Sexual position/style | Description | Relevance | Cost GH₵ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | ‘Missionary’ | Lie on your back while he lies face down on top of you | This sex position is simple, relaxing, and less stressful to the woman | 20 |
2 | ‘Face-off’ | Your partner sits on a chair or the edge of the bed; you face him, seated on his lap | During this sex position, you’re in control of the angle and depth of the entry and thrust. Being seated adds support, so it’s great for marathon sex sessions | Negotiable |
3 | ‘Doggy Style’ | Get on all fours, then have your partner kneel behind you, with his upper body straight up or slightly draped over you (like a humping dog) | This sex position allows for deep penetration and easier G-spot stimulation | Negotiable |
4 | ‘G-Whiz’ | Lie back with your legs resting on each of your partner's shoulders | This sex position is awesome because when you raise your legs, it narrows the vagina and helps target the G-spot | Negotiable |
5 | ‘Wheel barrow’ | Get on your hands and feet and have him pick you up by the pelvis. Then grip his waist with your thighs | Aside from being a fabulous arm workout for you, this male-dominant sex position allows him deeper penetration | Negotiable |
6 | ‘Leap Frog’ | This is a modified doggy-style. Get on your hands and knees, then, keeping hips raised, rest your head and arms on the bed | This sex position creates deeper penetration and gives you a chance to rest on a pillow | Negotiable |
7 | ‘Stand and Deliver’ | With both of you standing, you bend over at the waist; he enters you from behind | Bending over during this sex position helps make the vaginal walls tighter and increases the intensity of the friction | Negotiable |
8 | ‘Magic Mountain’ | Your partner sits, legs bent, leaning back on his hands and forearms. You do the same and then inch toward him until you make contact | You will both feel really connected looking at each other. Increase your stimulation by grinding your clitoris against his pelvis | Negotiable |
9 | ‘Cowgirl’ | You kneel on top, pushing off your partner's chest and sliding up and down his thighs. You can relieve some of your weight from his pelvis by leaning back and supporting yourself on his thighs | By being the dominant in this sex position, you’ll delay his climax and intensify yours | Negotiable |
10 | ‘Cowboy’ | You lie on your back while your partner straddles you and then gently inserts his penis through the tight opening created by your semi-closed legs | Tightness increases the intensity of the penetration | Negotiable |
11 | ‘Ballet Dancer’ | Standing on one foot, face your partner and wrap your other leg around his waist while he helps support you | This sex position allows for quality face time and connecting | Negotiable |
12 | ‘Scoop me up’ | Both of you lie on your sides, facing the same direction. You bring your knees up slightly while your partner slides up behind your pelvis and enters you from behind | This sex position allows for more skin-to-skin contact, increasing your stimulation | Negotiable |
13 | ‘The Chairman’ | Your partner sits on the edge of the bed and you sit on him, facing away | This sex position will hit the G-spot. Meanwhile, you can use your hands to stimulate his scrotum or perineum | Negotiable |
14 | ‘Spork’ | While you lie on your back, raise your right leg so he can position himself between your legs at a 90-degree angle and enter you. Your legs will form the tines of a spork. You can do this with him facing you or facing your back | From the spork position, you can lift your top leg and support it by resting it on your partner's shoulder. From here, you can easily stimulate your clitoris using your fingers while he is inside you | Negotiable |
15 | ‘Table Top’ | You don’t have to do this one on a table. Any surface that hits your partner at crotch height will do. Have him enter you while you’re sitting or lying at the edge of a table, counter, or maybe even your bed | This position is great for face-to-face action. Plus, if you two are drastically different heights, this is a great option, since it puts you both at the same height | Negotiable |
16 | ‘Champagne Room’ | Your partner sits and you sit on top of him, facing away | It helps you regulate the pace and intensity of the thrusts | Negotiable |
17 | ‘The Lazy Man’ | Place pillows behind your partner's back and have him sit on the bed with legs outstretched. Now straddle his waist, feet on the bed. Bend your knees to lower yourself onto him, using one hand to direct his penis in. Just by pressing on the balls of your feet and releasing, you can raise and lower yourself onto his shaft as slowly or as quickly as you please | This position puts you in control, and maintains plenty of intimacy. Think of his penis as a masturbatory tool, something to rub and stimulate your clitoris with and against | Negotiable |
18 | ‘Snow Angel’ | Lie on your back and have your partner straddle you facing away. Lift your legs and wrap them around his back to elevate your pelvis so he can enter you. Grab his butt to help him slide up and back. Add a little massage action to your grip | You get a prime view of his cute butt. Plus, from this position, you have easy access to fondle his testicles. Not to mention, his pelvis is perfectly positioned to grind against your clit | Negotiable |
19 | ‘The Snake’ | Lie down on your stomach, and have your partner lie down on top of you and slide in from behind | This position allows for super-deep penetration, and a snug fit which can feel great for you and your partner | Negotiable |
20 | ‘Blowjob’ | The blowjob involves using the hands and mouth, fingers, skilled tongue and even breast: caress his penis gently, be sufficiently rude, and the result will not be long in coming | The man is entirely under your control and you may do with him everything you want | Negotiable |
