The spoon position is one of the varieties of backward sex positions that requires the least effort. It is perfect in the morning, right after waking up, as well as after a hard day when we do not think about extreme bedtime activities. The spoon position is also safe for pregnant women. What does the "teaspoon" look like and how can it be varied?

The spoon positionis a favorite for lazybones. But even though it doesn't look spectacular, it gives both partners a lot of satisfaction. Discover the advantages, disadvantages and variants of the "teaspoon".

Spoon position - what does it look like?

A man hugs his partner from the back, both legs slightly bent. If you looked at them from a bird's eye view, the shape of their bodies would make you think of the teaspoons in the kitchen drawer. He enters it from behind (depending on preferences - vaginally or anally) and he is the dominant party in this system. By holding her partner's hip, she can control the angle of penetration. But - when he gets tired - it is his lover who can take the initiative. He can hug him more with his back or, on the contrary, lean forward and move his hips to orgasm both him and himself, because the spoon position is unmatched when it comes to G-spot stimulation.

Spoon position - for whom?

Not every couple can afford loud frolics or breakneck exaggerations in the bedroom. Some have a small apartment with thin walls, others - children in the other room. The spoon position is just right for them! It is a quiet, delicate, undemanding position that will work both in the morning and after the hardships of everyday life. It can put us in a positive mood for the day or provide complete relaxation that we deserve. It is also a good position for overweight people and for partners who differ greatly in body composition. When a woman is very small and a man, on the contrary, very tall, it is sometimes difficult for them to find a convenient position for themselves. The "teaspoon" is one of those that should appeal to them!

It is worth emphasizing that it is also a safe position for pregnant women, because it does not put pressure on the mother's belly. As you can see, the spoon position has many advantages.

Spoon position -advantages

  • Undemanding - calm, relaxing, does not lead to sweat, does not require fighting gravity or the performance of a circus performer.
  • Not straining your muscles - good for overweight people, elderly lovers, people tired all day at work.
  • Comfortable for partners with different body shapes.
  • Perfect for pregnant women - the mum-to-be's belly lies freely, is not pressed.

Spoon position - disadvantages

The discussed sexual position, however, also has its drawbacks, namely it makes eye contact between partners difficult and - kissing. Besides, only a man can additionally caress a woman with his hands, because she - although her hands are free - has a very limited range of movements.

In addition, since in the spoon position the penetration is very deep, if a man has a large penis, it can hurt a woman. However, we have several variants of the "teaspoon" at our disposal, in which this inconvenience can be slightly eliminated.

"Teaspoon" in several ways

Depending on individual preferences, this classic item can be modified in many ways, and as many variants as there are pairs. Here are some of them:

Romantic spoons- the basic version. The lovers lie close to each other, he hugs her from behind, he can use his hand to stimulate her breasts or clitoris. She can reach back to caress her partner's buttocks or control his hips to set the rhythm. Both partners have slightly bent knees, they make gentle movements with their hips - a woman and a man can do it as well.

Spicy spoons- lovers impose a faster pace on themselves, and the thrusts are stronger. A woman can move her back slightly away from the man (even to a right angle), unhook her bottom and press it against him to further enhance the sensations. He holds her firmly by the hips, and she can fondle her clitoris herself.

Passionate spoons- this is a variant for those who cannot imagine sex without kissing. Initially, the lovers arrange themselves like a classic "spoon", but the woman slightly twists her torso and head towards her partner so that she can look him in the eyes, and he, for the same purpose, rises on his elbow. Thanks to this arrangement of the bodies, they can kiss. In fact, it is only natural for a woman to pass one woman's leg over her hippartner. Thanks to this, the penetration is even deeper, and the man gains convenient access to all erogenous spheres of his beloved, she also can caress him as comfortably.
