How to Do the Anvil Sex Position

The Anvil sex position is a classic for couples seeking deep penetration and heightened G-spot or prostate stimulation. It’s a powerful variation of missionary that brings both partners closer together and allows for intense, focused pleasure.

How to Do It

  1. Lie on your back.The receiving partner lies flat on their back on a comfortable, supportive surface like a bed or padded mat.

  2. Lift your legs overhead.The receiving partner raises their legs straight up and back, so their knees are near their chest or even touching the bed behind their head (flexibility permitting). For extra comfort, ankles can rest on the giver’s shoulders.

  3. The giving partner enters.The penetrating partner kneels or stands at the edge of the bed, gently guiding the receiving partner’s hips upward for a snug fit and deep penetration.

  4. Adjust and support.Pillows or bolsters under the hips can help maintain the position and reduce strain. The giving partner can hold the receiver’s legs or hips for support and rhythm.

Tips for Maximum Enjoyment

  • Warm up with gentle stretching or massage to increase flexibility.
  • Use plenty of lube for comfort and smooth movement.
  • Communicate throughout to ensure both partners are comfortable.
  • Adjust the angle and pace to find what feels best for both of you.
