Do Cowgirls Have More Fun? The Cowgirl, also known as woman-on-top and Reverse Cowgirl, may just be the key to better sex. Why? Cowgirl positions can help women move in a way that feels good to them, focus pressure on the right places, and, for some women, make them feel more comfortable.

When you're on top, you can position yourself for maximum friction, stroke your clitoris with your hand or a toy, and do it to your own favorite rhythm. It's also great for a partner with a slightly larger package, because you can control the depth.

If being on top isn’t your thing, that’s totally normal, as we all have our own preferences. It’s understandable that it can be super intimidating to be on top of someone naked, with your breasts on full display, and completely in charge of the sex.

Some women may also feel that cowgirl positions make them feel more self-conscious about their bodies or unsure if they are moving correctly.

These are feelings that, if embraced, can be overcome. Focusing on pleasure instead of climax and focusing on how your body feels can alleviate some of the worries.

Focusing on your pleasure can make things easier, but what about the practical aspects like what to do with your hands, what to do with your hips, or what to do when your legs get tired?

Yes, you can attend a class or just learn by doing, but chances are you'll want to have a few tips and techniques in your back pocket before you hop in the saddle.

From the basics to the best manners, here's how to ride your partner like an expert when you're on top.

Remember: always use lubricant

Lubricant not only makes sex more enjoyable, but also safer . If there is not enough lubrication, whether natural or store-bought, it can cause small tears in the penis or vagina.

This can be incredibly unpleasant and increase the risk of infection, causing you to avoid intimacy altogether, which is obviously not ideal.

In short: give yourself enough time to get nice and aroused before penetration, and use some lubricant to minimize pain.

Take it easy

If the Cowgirl is new or exciting to you, take it slow, change your hip angle or go deeper onto the penis or toy little by little to give your body time to respond.

Since this position allows for very deep penetration, some individuals may find it painful because their partner may come into contact with their cervix.

All sexperts agree: if the position is extremely uncomfortable, stop immediately! And while it’s uncommon, Cowgirl can cause the most “broken penis” injuries , which is another good reason to take it slow…

The critical angle

The Cowgirl doesn't mean sitting up on your partner at a 90-degree angle, but rather leaning forward slightly (up to a 45-degree angle) for the easiest and most comfortable penetration.

Keep it exciting

Vary the pace and depth of penetration so that no pattern is established. Start with shallow, fast thrusts and gradually move down to your partner every fifth thrust.

If you're having trouble finding a rhythm, try alternating between bouncing and grinding or adjusting your speeds to suit your comfort and enjoyment.

Use your hands

Experiment with your partner and your own hands . Have them place their hands on your hips for more leverage.

If you start to get tired, lean back slightly and rest your arms behind you and on your partner's knees to help shift your weight.

For extra stimulation, try caressing your breasts or playing with your nipples. This also serves as a nice visual aid for your partner…

Don't be shy to take the lead

Want to make Cowgirl even sexier? Tell your partner to stay still and keep their hands above their head, or use handcuffs . Taking that power away from them will drive them crazy as you show them how you like to ride.

Also, don't be nervous about asking your partner to help

Likewise, just because you’re in charge doesn’t mean you have to do all the work. It’s okay to ask your lover to meet you halfway and thrust from underneath.

Toys Toys Toys

Make it extra hot and exciting with sex toys ! Try leaning back to get better access to your clitoris while on top. If you need to steady yourself with your hands, ask your partner to hold the vibrator for you.

This can be incredibly hot, because you are giving them the power (and toy) to your pleasure.
