Surprisingly, sex stalwarts like missionary and doggy made the least favourites list.

Here are the top five worst sex positions for women.

 

Doggy Style

It may have been voted Britain’s favourite sex position, but it’s a no for the ladies.

The women surveyed confessed that it just doesn’t feel intimate enough for their liking, leaving them feeling slightly turned off.

 

Cowgirl

The ‘Woman On Top’ isn’t doing it for the ladies either .

Apparently it can kill her mood because she feels self-conscious.

The angle of this one puts her stomach and boobs on show to her lover – so can make her feel ‘on display’.

Switching positions may be best if your woman doesn’t feel her sexiest.

Reverse cowgirl

This is one may increase your arousal but ladies don’t seem so keen as they are less likely to climax.

There’s also a warning label here for men: it’s one of the most dangerous sex positions for you guys - and you do risk damaging your willy.

 

Missionary

Ye old faithful, but it’s bad news for guys with small schlongs as you’re unlikely to hit the right spot.

This position doesn’t work wonders for maximising your penis size, but a twist on this classic can make all the difference.

Try using the coital alignment technique (CAT) sex position – also known as “grinding the corn” – to boost enjoyment all round.

CAT is pretty similar to missionary but the man is positioned slightly higher, allowing for more stimulation.

69

This is one to bin, lads. Most ladies would rather not perform oral sex at the same time as receiving it - it means they can’t concentrate as much on their own enjoyment.

According to the survey, this manoeuvre also lacks intimacy and can feel impersonal.
