"The butterfly is the hottest sex position. It feels like he is so deep inside me when my legs are up on his shoulders and he's kneeling in front of me."

The Butterfly Sex Position

The Butterfly Position is just one of those sex positions that, when executed right, looks damn good. Typically she is seated, with her legs hanging over the edge of the bed or table. Her partner stands in front of and facing her, and lifts her legs onto his shoulders. She can lean back and use her arms for support; he has the option of kneeling.

What's good about The Butterfly: Like the Legs Up position, this is a great position for maximum penetration. He can stimulate the back walls of her vagina, creating different sensations for both partners. Unlike in the Legs Up position, however, she can use her arm and abs strength to do some of the thrusting, which increases stimulation nicely.

What's bad about The Butterfly: This position can be uncomfortable if she is not flexible or able to hold her weight on her hands. It can be awkward to find the right height for her hips to make penetration easy and accessible, especially if there is a big height difference between partners.

Best for: nature enthusiasts.
