How do you do the Snow Angel sex position?

The Snow Angel sex position isn't just one for the winter, as the name would suggest.

Whatever the weather, this playful position can certainly spice things up in the bedroom.

It takes inspiration from the classic Missionary position but gives it a bit of an upside-down twist.

To start off, get your partner to lie on top of you with their head face down by your legs.

Then lift your legs and wrap them around their back to elevate your pelvis for penetration.

You're then very much in the driving seat when it comes to thrusting, as you can grab onto their bum to control it.

Even better, women can also position themselves in such a way that their partner's manhood rubs against her clitoris during sex — giving her an extra pleasure boost.

Why do they call it the Snow Angel sex position?

As the name suggests, it is a great position for cold winter nights as it is close and keeps you nice and warm.

How do you get the perfect angle in a missionary sex position?

The missionary position traditionally has the male partner on top and the female on the bottom, although this can be altered to a woman on top, or to any gender combination.

The receiver gets a really hot view of their partner’s butt, which is something we don’t get to see very often in other positions"

Isabelle Uren

To get the best out of the move, one partner needs to lay on their back, while the other will lay directly on top.

While this is a great base, couples can also choose to mix things up slightly and can always make small changes as they go to find what feels best for both parties.

For instance, try changing your hips' angle or raising your legs to find new sensations.

The missionary position can be used for either vaginal or anal penetration.

What are the benefits of the Snow Angel sex position?

Isabelle Uren, a certified master sexpert with degrees in psychology and cognitive semiotics explained the benefits of the position.

She told Woman&home: “The receiver gets a really hot view of their partner’s butt, which is something we don’t get to see very often in other positions.

“Plus, the reverse orientation gives a different angle of penetration that provides new sensations.”

If you are on the bottom of this position you will be very much in control of the whole movement.

And if you are a fan of lazy sex positions, then this could be for you as it's a combination of missionary and 69 with little movement.
