This article is the next in the series and will give you the pros and cons of the all-time favorite doggie style position.

What’s the doggie style position and why is it called that?
The doggie style position is a classic that has been embraced by both the human and animal world. As the name suggests, this position places the male on top of the female with her on her knees or all fours while he enters her from behind, just as you would observe if you saw dogs going at it. Compared to the missionary position, the doggie style position has a reputation for being “naughty” or adventurous. However, for many people this position is just another basic sexual position.

Getting started with the Doggie Style Position
Unless you have a very conservative sex life or sexual partner, then you have, quite likely, experienced the doggie style position. It’s basically the reverse of the missionary position, and even though it is pretty straight forward, you can still mix it up a bit to make it more interesting. For example, the woman can be on all fours or she can be on her knees only, leaving her hands free to stimulate herself or reach between her legs and stimulate him as well. He can use her hips for stability and to control the speed and depth of each penetration, or he can reach around and massage her breasts while he is thrusting.

Cons
Guys that love grabbing their partner, flipping her around, and humping her from behind, will likely wonder if they are any cons to the doggie style position. Even though this position is great for many couples, there are some complaints about it too:

It lacks intimacy - Unlike the missionary position or the female superior position, the doggie style position has been criticized for its lack of intimacy. Just like animals that screw and then leave to move on to the next female in heat, this position is sometimes seen as a bit impersonal. This is because the position doesn’t leave room for face-to-face kissing or communication during sex.

It tends to be fast – Unless you are looking for a quickie, this position is often good for wham, bam, thank-you ma’am sexual experiences. Plus, because it allows for very deep penetration, guys may find it difficult to keep up the thrusting for very long which may not satisfy their female partners.

There’s no direct clitoral stimulation – For many women, a sex position that doesn’t involve clitoral stimulation is not very enticing. This is because many women find it difficult to achieve orgasm without some direct clitoral contact. To alleviate this problem, he can reach around and rub her clitoris while thrusting her from behind, or she can stimulate herself while he holds on to her hips for stability.

He’s in control – Generally, women take longer to reach orgasm than do men. Positions that place men in “charge” are, therefore, less favored by lots of women. The doggie style position is one of those positions because she doesn’t have much control over the depth and speed of thrusting.

Pros
Even though there are several criticisms of the doggie style position, it still has a lot to offer, and can be ranked as one of the all-time favorite positions amongst sex partners. Here are just some of the pros of this position:

It’s got a good reputation for being naughty – For couples that want to spice up their sex life and are tired of switching between the missionary and female superior positions, this is a great alternative. It’s simple, but at the same time, it offers another way for couples to explore their sexual preferences. And because it’s thought of as being sort of mischievous, it can add an element of excitement to your sex life.

Men get a great view – Let’s face it – a lot of men really enjoy the view they get during the doggie style position. Even if you aren’t an ass man, you will likely enjoy viewing the full package from behind and watching yourself penetrate your partner. Men are very visual when it comes to sex, and this is why so many really enjoy this position.

It’s great for quickies – There are times when you won’t want or won’t have time to engage in long, sensual love making, and for this reason, the doggie style position is a great way to have fast sex.

Versatility – Some people think that there’s no versatility involved in the doggie style position, but this doesn’t have to be the case. For example, if she complains that she isn’t getting enough direct clitoral contact, reach around and deliver it or introduce a vibrator into the mix so that she can pleasure herself while you thrust from behind.

Deep penetration – This position allows for deep penetration, which can be a very good thing when you are looking to stimulate her G-spot. If you have entered her at the right angle, you should be able to directly stimulate the infamous spot.

Maybe animals have it right
Now that you’ve had a chance to review the pros and cons of the doggie style position, you can try it out for yourself to see if the animals had it right this whole time. Unless you try it out, you will never know what your favorite sexual position will be!
