8 Essential Sex Positions You Can Do Without Leaving the Couch

Whether you’re dreading going outside in 20-degree weather or just want your routine Sunday afternoon sex to not involve a bed, couch boning is where it’s at. Hop aboard that trusty futon and get on getting it on. Here’s how:

The seat cushion

Once you get through the awkward butt-in-the-face positioning part, you can wiggle your ass as you please and experience some truly deep penetration from an all-new angle. If you’re not so flexible, prop your hands on a sturdy coffee table and you’ll still get the same benefits.

The armchair traveler

Get on your knees and bend over, holding on to the couch arm. You can just hang the hell on, or if you want to try a version where you’re controlling the speed, have them stay very still while you thrust back onto them at your own pace, using the couch arm for leverage. If you require vibration, your partner can press a toy against you to spur you on.

The sexional

Just ’cause you’re on the couch doesn’t mean you can’t fancy it up a little. Try this twisty position that looks way more complicated than it is. It’s a kind of doggy/spoon/scissor hybrid that lets you twist back so you can watch (and if you’re the leg-humping type, take advantage of their quite f*ckable thigh right there).

The couch potato

Sit their ass down, get on their lap, and slowly undress them, kissing them as you go, until you end up on your knees in front of them giving them the best oral they ever had. Let them choose how and where they want to orgasm, then switch places and Get. Yours.

The lazy boy

Got a reclining sectional? Have your partner lie down and throttle it back as far as that baby will go. If you still want to do it after seeing them pants-less and fully reclined, straddle them facing their feet. Rub your clit as you move and they can hold on to your boobs—everyone’s happy and, technically, still seated.

The channel surfer

Bend over the arm of the couch with your hands on the seat cushions for balance. Your partner stands to enter, holding on to your ass for deeper penetration. Fun fact: If you prop a vibrator between yourself and the sofa arm, it stays put, like, perfectly.

The greasy spoon

Make a spoon deeper and so much better just by taking your top leg and hooking your foot over the back of the couch. Still as cozy and couple-y as ever but a li’l sexier. If it’s not quite doing it for you, squeeze some lube onto their fingers and guide their hand where it needs to go.

The tease

Sit facing each other with your backs on opposite armrests. Pop in (or on) a remote control toy and tease each other by ramping it up then cruelly back down exactly when it’s getting good. (Guy partners might like a P-spot toy). For variation, you can also stroke yourselves while watching each other get more and more turned on.
