This **list of sex positions** is a list of different ways to have sexual intercourse and other sexual acts.

Intercourse
-----------

These positions involve a penis going into a vagina, or the anus.

### On top with front entry

Lovers in the missionary position
These positions are used for vaginal, or anal sex. The basic position is called the missionary position. In it, the receiving partner lies on their back with legs apart. The penetrating partner lies on top of the receiving partner, facing them. The penetrating partner enters so that the base of the penis rubs the clitoris.

### From behind

A doggy style position
Most of these positions can be used for either vaginal, or anal sex.

The receiving partner is kneeling or on all four limbs. The penetrating partner inserts their penis from behind. This position is sometimes called as the doggy style position.

### On top

See also: Woman on top
Most of these positions can be used for either vaginal, or anal sex.

The receiving partner is on their hands and knees with their bottom exposed. The penetrating partner then pumps away at the receiving partner's vagina or anus with his penis.

### Sitting and kneeling

Sitting position
Most of these positions can be used for either vaginal, or anal sex.

The penetrating partner sits down, with their legs stretched out. The receiving partner sits on top and wraps their legs around the penetrating partner. This is called **pounding on the spot**.

### Standing

Standing position
In the basic standing position, both partners stand facing each other and have vaginal sex. The shorter partner can stand on a stair if the partners are different heights. It may be easier if the person being penetrated has their back to a wall.

### Anal

Most of the above positions can be used for anal sex.

* From behind. This position is good for thrusting.
* On top with front entry. The penetrating partner is between the receiving partner's legs. This position is good for beginners, because it allows them to relax.

Outercourse

**Outercourse** or **frottage** is sometimes part of foreplay, or to avoid intercourse.

* Dry humping – similar to sex, but with clothes on.
* Handjob – Rubbing a partner's penis.
* Footjob – using the feet to rub the penis.
* Mammary intercourse – using the breasts to rub the penis.
* Armpit Sex - placing the penis on the axilla.

### Genital-genital sex

Oral sex
--------

Oral sex is the term given to genital stimulation by the mouth. People may engage in oral sex as part of foreplay before intercourse, or during, or following intercourse. It may also be performed for its own sake.

### Fellatio

Fellatio is a kind of oral sex that involves a person letting their penis be licked, or "eaten" by their partner. The person's partner can be any gender, or sex. There are several ways to have oral sex.

* The person with male genitalia lies on their back while their partner kneels between their legs.
* The person with male genitalia lies on their back while their partner lies off to the side of their legs.
* The person with male genitalia sits in a chair and their partner kneels in front of them between their legs.
* The person with male genitalia stands while their partner either kneels in front of them or sits (in a chair or on the edge of a bed, etc.) and bends forward.
* The person with male genitalia's partner lies on their back with their mouth open and the person with male genitalia lies so that their penis is in their partner's mouth.

Note: Fellatio doesn't have to involve two people. Some people with male genitalia have a long-enough penis and a good enough stretch to lick or put their own penis into their mouth. However, this is called autofellatio or autofellation.

### Cunnilingus

Cunnilingus is oral sex involving a person's female genitals. There are several ways to have oral sex.

* One partner lies on their back as in the missionary position. The active partner lies on their front between the first partner's legs.
