Position of the Week:
Flock Together

You know what they say; birds of a feather – ahem – flock together! So, hand your lover a feather tickler, lie back, and let your body get the all-over attention it deserves. Head-to-toe tingles, coming your way.

Why?

This luxurious, lounging position offers lots of skin-to-skin contact and helps the receiver feel relaxed, connected, and supported. Meanwhile, you’ll build anticipation and heighten the senses with light, sensual touching.

Feather ticklers feel gentle and soft, teasing the skin for a heavenly, goose-pimply feeling all over. If you don’t have one, trace your fingertips or nails along your lover’s skin instead, asking them where they like being touched the most.

Exploring each other’s erogenous zones is a fun way to switch up your foreplay and show your lover how much you worship their body!

Make it even easier

If you have a disability, this is a gentle position for building intimacy and exploring pleasure together without acrobatic poses or high-energy sex. Some people even find that the light touch of a feather helps calm and distract them from tremors caused by conditions like Parkinson’s.

If you want to transition from here to penetrative sex, a sex position restraint can help raise your legs and explore new positions without tiring your limbs as much. Take breaks whenever you need and be clear about what feels good (or doesn’t).

As the giver, if you get fatigued or can’t support your own weight very well, you can maintain this position for longer by getting propped up with lots of pillows. Choose a long-handled tickler so you can reach your lover’s hotspots with ease.

Make it even better

Go from laidback to lusty by treating your lover with a remote-controlled vibrator like the We-Vibe Jive Lite. This vibrating love egg sends deep, rumbly vibrations straight to the G-spot – so you can keep teasing the labia and clitoris with your feather tickler for simultaneous stimulation.

Alternatively, the giver can lube up their penis – or a double-ended dildo – and slide inside. Lean forward into your supporting arm to give your hips space to thrust, or stay still to let the receiver enjoy the sensation of having you inside them while they masturbate.

Make it even kinkier

BDSM beginners can explore a soft Dom/sub dynamic by letting the receiver take control. Put your communication skills to the test as you direct the giver to touch you exactly the right way. It’s all about owning your desires and getting confident asking for what you want. Otherwise, the giver can take charge as the receiver submits to slow, teasing tickles.

Before getting the feather tickler out, adorn your sub with a nipple or clit clamp for a couple of minutes. Once removed, the rush of blood to the surface of the skin will have them feeling ultra-sensitive. That’s when you start sensually touching their body and get them begging for more before you let them come. Saucy.

Not the position for you?

We're working to make sure that everyone is represented on our website, regardless of who you love, so we'll be using a variety of gender depictions in our Position of the Week posts. This will include straight, gay, lesbian, and gender neutral couples, but all positions will have details in the description of how to make them work for your own relationship dynamic.
