5 SEX POSITIONS WOMEN SECRETLY CRAVE 1. Cunnilingus (Oral Sex) “It's hard to speak so broadly, as there are 2.5 billion adult women in the world, and undoubtedly innumerable different sex position preferences among them,” Jill Mc Devit,Ph.D, sexologist and author of Sex Positions for Every Body, says. “But for the women I encounter in my work, which are mostly American women between the ages of 18 and 45, often a highly craved sex position is the one where she lays on her back with her legs spread and knees bent, with her partner lying on their stomach and their mouth on their vulva—also known as cunnilingus/oral sex.” The reason women crave oral sex is that it stimulates the clitoris, which usually isn’t stimulated during penile vaginal sex, according to McDevitt. That’s why she says this sex act is more reliably orgasmic than some other ones. 2. Missionary Position / Missionary Squeeze O’Reilly says that the missionary position usually isn’t considered a position that women (or men) crave since it’s often seen as boring. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t spice it up. O’Reilly recommends enhancing the regular missionary position by doing the missionary squeeze. 3. Woman on Top (And Its Variations) Women also crave any variation where they're on top, which includes positions like Cowgirl, Reverse Cowgirl, The Lotus, and Yab-Yum, according to Griffin. “Women love these positions because they allow them to be able to control the speed, angle, and depth of penetration,” Griffin says. “When a woman is on top, it makes it easier for her to move in a way that feels more pleasurable for her. The man’s hands are free to roam and stimulate other pleasure points of her body such as her breast, back, and butt, which also helps to increase her body’s sensitivity. These positions also offer direct stimulation of the clitoris and G-Spot, which can maximize her chances of having an orgasm.” 4. The Snake The way to do The Snake, according to O’Reilly, is that the woman lies on her stomach flat on the bed and her partner slides in from behind. Then she wraps her hand or a small toy under her vulva and pubic mound. The reason O’Reilly says this works: “The weight of her body allows her to grind with extra pressure against her hand or toy stimulating the internal (erect) shaft of her clitoris.” 5. Spooning While Griffin says that spooning certainly isn’t a secret to most men, she notes that some men choose sexual positions in an effort to impress women with their sexual prowess rather than going with a tried-and-true method.
