The best positions for long-lasting pleasure

If you’re looking for sex that isn’t just fast and intense, but also lasts long enough to get the most out of the experience, choosing the right positions is essential. Some positions offer more control, more depth and more possibilities for prolonged pleasure. Whether your focus is on comfort, intensity or variety, the right positions can help to create a long-lasting pleasurable experience that will leave you both wanting more.

Spooning

Why it works: spooning is ideal for slow and prolonged pleasure. Both partners lie on their sides, the man behind the woman. This position offers intimacy, deep connection and makes it easy to adjust pace and intensity. Lying so close together, you can kiss, whisper and touch each other during sex, making the experience more intimate.

Pro Tip: this position is perfect if you want to go gentle and enjoy the experience more. You can move slowly and deeply, and maintain the sexual energy that way.

Missionary with adjusted angle

Why it works: the missionary is a classic, but if you change the angles a little, it can lead to much longer pleasure. For example, by raising the woman’s legs or placing a pillow under her hips, you can adjust the depth and pace. This makes it possible to move slower and deeper, increasing pleasure.

Pro Tip: place your hands on your partner’s hips to control the pace, and try moving at a slower pace to keep it up longer.

Doggy Style with breaks

Why it works: doggy style is a position that can bring a lot of intensity, but by taking things slow, with breaks, you can keep it up longer. The man has a lot of control in this position, but the deep penetration and possibility of clit stimulation offer the woman much pleasure. By taking occasional breaks, you can prolong the experience and maximize pleasure.

Pro Tip: variations such as ‘lying doggy’ (where the woman lies on her stomach and the man positions himself behind her) can slow down pleasure and prolong the experience even more. Combine it with occasionally stopping for a short moment of intimacy, like kissing or soft whispering.

Sitting swan

Why it works: in this position both partners sit across from each other, with the woman on the man’s lap, her legs wrapped around his hips. It gives her control over the depth and pace of penetration, but at the same time offers a lot of physical connection with the bodies so close together. Because the movements are relatively slow and controlled, they can offer prolonged pleasure.

Pro Tip: this position is ideal for slow, deep penetration and can easily be adjusted to slow down the experience. Let your partner concentrate on the rhythmic movements to prolong the experience.

Reverse cowgirl

Why it works: this position also gives the woman control over the movements, but in this variation of cowgirl, she sits on top, but facing his feet. This gives a different kind of dynamic and offers lots of room for slowing down. It also makes it possible to modify the pace and balance intensity, leading to longer pleasure.

Pro Tip: the woman can slow down her movements by adjusting the pace and depth of penetration to her and her partner’s feelings.

Why long-lasting pleasure is important

Sex doesn’t always have to be hard and fast; sometimes slower, more controlled pleasure can be much more satisfying. It gives space to experiment, communicate with your partner and discover new ways of intimacy. These positions don’t just help to build sexual tension, but to feel the experience at a deeper level too. Remember: it’s the journey, not the destination, that counts, really.

So, whether you are looking for long-lasting pleasure together or just want an intimate moment, with these positions you’re well on your way to a sex life that continues to blossom at your own pace!
