Position of the Week:
Knocker Knock-out


Kinky yet comfortable, this position is all about your naughty nips! This week, we’re celebrating Lesbian Visibility Day with a close and sensual, boob-loving position. No matter who you love, you’ll find some fun and saucy tips right here.

How?

Partner one, you’ll lie on your back in any comfortable position. Partner two, kneel between your partner’s legs, facing them. Lean forward slowly until your nipples touch.

Make out in this position as you reach your hand between your partner’s legs. Explore how it feels to trace your nipples over their skin – it'll be even more intense if you’ve used nipple clamps or orgasm balm on your nips beforehand.

Press your chests together or keep the friction light. When you’re both fully aroused, bring in penetrative toys or fisting, if that’s on your ‘hell yes’ list.


Hold each other close


Why?

It's basically a love letter to nipple play. Nipples can be super sensitive, so playing with them during sex might be a big turn on. And, as you get more aroused, your nipples get firm, which means your partner can feel them even more as they trace over the skin.

For people who get a thrill from having breasts and feeling the femme fantasy, wearing an open-cup bra takes things up a notch; it frames the breasts, keeps everything lifted – and looks outrageously good, of course. And masc vibes are welcome here too: You don’t need voluptuous breasts to enjoy teasing, squeezing, or pinching the nipples while you make out.

Make it even easier

Partner one, try bending your knees and placing feet flat on the floor. This can feel more comfy on your lower back, while giving you both more stability. If lying on top of each other is too smothering, you can lie down on your sides, facing each other instead.

Being side-on might make it easier to use toys or finger each other while you play. Toys can also help if sustained wrist or finger activity is strenuous. For example, a long-handled vibrator like a wand helps reach your lover’s clit or perineum without straining.

Make it even better

Got a tingling lube or orgasm balm in the bedside drawer? You can dab a little on your nipples before you play to up your sensitivity. Try edging each other by teasing the knockers only – no kissing or fingering allowed! Not yet anyway...

When it’s time for toys, choose a compact clitoral suction toy that fits easily between bodies without breaking your chest-to-chest contact. Start on a lower setting and build gradually – it's easier to increase intensity than to recover from starting too strong.

If you prefer fingers, try slow circular movements around the clitoris, alternating with light tapping or gentle side-to-side strokes. Combine that with steady nipple brushing for layered stimulation that keeps building rather than plateauing. If your partner has a penis, a pulsating or vibrating stroker is a great option for single-handed stimulation.

Make it even kinkier

For those of you who love a nip tug, play with nipple clamps before getting in position. Get adjustable ones so you can control pressure – tight enough to feel noticeable, but not painful (unless that’s the goal).

When you remove clamps, the blood rushes to your nips, which will make teasing feel even more intense. You can also tug gently on the chain between clamps while maintaining genital stimulation, adding a playful push-pull dynamic.
