Discussing sex positions is as complex as any other controversial topic like football, politics or religion, because everyone has their own taste and preference. This is no different with sex.

What we know is that sex positions are as old as the practice of sex itself and, every day, countless new ideas arise on how, when and where to practice.

Historically, we have records that in ancient Rome, for example, sex positions appeared in paintings on canvases, lamps, bowls and even coins.

In addition to being brothel tokens, Roman coins had a different sex position illustrated on each side.

The positions with penetration represented higher numbers, so these coins were more valued.

One of the best known and most practiced sex positions is, undoubtedly, the famous Missionary position. Do you know why?

According to evolution, humans are descendants of monkeys so we instinctively inherit the mating form of this species.

Now that you know the origin of one of the most widely performed sex positions, let’s talk about the 7 reasons you should enjoy and spice up missionary style sex.

7 reasons why you should enjoy and spice up missionary style sex

1) It increases intimacy

It is one of the positions that most favor the exchange of glances between partners.

The essential “eye to eye” spices relationships up, brings partners closer and allows them to show confidence in each other.

2) It helps in pregnancy

If the couple is planning to conceive, this is one of the most suitable positions since the vagina is closer to the cervix, which helps the natural path of sperm (if you do not intend to conceive, use a condom, but be sure to practice and take advantage of this position).

3) Countless variations

There are countless variations of this position that range from the inclination of the bodies to different movements done by the couple.

Be creative and enjoy the freedom that this position gives you during sex.

4) It improves sensibility

The focus of this position is on penetration, since the man is always above the partner in this situation. So, you should value penetration in this case.

Use body movements, alternating between light and deep penetrations in order to intensify pleasure.

5) It stimulates the clitoris

If well aligned, the man can stimulate the woman’s clitoris with his own body and increase the chance of orgasm by stimulating the clitoris while penetrating the female partner.

6) It is possible to add objects and even sex toys

Use pillows, for example, under your partner’s hips to increase the inclination level of her body and totally change the way you have sex.

7) Advantages

The couple is extremely close in this position, so take the time to kiss, bite and explore the body of whoever is with you to the fullest.

A practice that is as old as missionary style can be as rich and pleasurable for the couple if there is freedom and motivation from both partners.

Enjoy the moment and explore all of your senses and desires.
