What is the corkscrew sex position?

There are a few different forms of the corkscrew position.

One is a variation of the ever-popular missionary position and sees the penetrating partner crossing their legs while entering their partner - who wraps their legs around their partner's waist.

But this version of the corkscrew is slightly different as it involves using the edge of a surface, like a bed, and one partner standing up.

It is perfect for when the receiving partner is feeling a little lazy - so experts suggest it's a good one to have in your back pocket for Sunday mornings in bed.

To perform the position correctly one partner should start by lying down near the edge of a bed or the sofa.

If you're feeling extra adventurous the receiving partner could even opt for the kitchen counter.

Once the receiving partner's back is to the person penetrating, they should prop themselves up on their forearm while pressing their thighs together.

Explaining the position in more detail, says: "Your partner stands and straddles you, entering from behind.

"Keeping your legs pressed together during this sex position allows for a tighter hold on him as he thrusts."

Different angles and depths can allow for both partners to find what feels best for them.

For example, one partner - or both - adjusting the angle of their hips or the position of their legs can help boost stimulation and pleasure.
