The intense sex position you've probably never heard of

Like 69, but even better

We've all heard about the '69' position, right?

Just a quick recap if not, it's a rather acrobatic style that equals pleasure for both. Both partners give oral sex at the same time (hence the 69 shape), and the position can either mean that one person straddles the other person, or both people lie on their side (which sounds easier but it is actually harder!).

So, yes, it's genius and yes, we love it - but we've found a new position that threatens to throw it off the top spot.

Enter: the 68.

This similarly-named take on the classic rejigs the pleasure giving ratio and puts the onus completely on one person. Yes, it sounds like a selfish position but sometimes we all need to take care of number one.

How to do the '68'

The position begins with one person lying on their back with their knees bent and their feet flat on the floor. The other partner, or the 'lucky one' as we like to call them, then lies on top of that person with their head, face up, resting on the 'bottom's' thighs.

If you're on top then position your vulva over your partner's mouth, giving him full access to everything, and just lie back and relax.


Why is it SO good?

Not only is this position the ultimate for oral pleasure, it also means you're hands free to get involved with some masturbation, nipple play or just explore your own body in this intimate position.

It's sexy, it's vulnerable and it's a sure fire way to enjoy an intense orgasm.

If you find it hard then use your elbows to prop you up and take some weight off your partner.

68 is our new favourite number!
