Position of the Week:
Butter Churner

How hard can it be to make butter?! The infamous Butter Churner sex position, also known as the Piledriver, combines raised hips and deliciously deep penetration angles that’ll have you flexing your muscles while you ride.

Why?

On our Forum, WaveyAlien describes this position as a more extreme version of Doggy Style – and it’s easy to see why! The Butter Churner offers depth while angling the penis directly against the G-spot (rather than going straight for the cervix, which can be painful).

The pose may feel intense for both partners to hold, but the unique, slightly unhinged angle offers novelty and plenty of visual stimulation.

“It takes a bit of practice and can be a bit tricky to begin with, but if you like the deep penetration from Doggy, you’ll probably love [it],” WaveyAlien adds on another thread.

Make it even easier

Tuck a pillow under the receiver's head and make sure they’re supporting their weight in their shoulders and upper back, rather than their neck.

Unless you’re a fully trained acrobat, you might want to keep it short and sweet before moving onto another position. Start with 30 seconds to a minute – no medals for powering through if it’s uncomfortable!

For longer sessions, try it on the edge of a bed or couch instead. That way, the receiver can lean their lower back and hips against the furniture. You can also slide a sex wedge under their hips for support.

Make it even better

Giver, once you’ve found the right angle, try shorter leg pulses and shallow thrusts. This gives you more control and helps the receiver enjoy the pressure without feeling like they’re in a wrestling match.

Receiver, you might like licking your fingers and circling your clit with your wet fingertips (for your partner, this can look almost as good as it feels for you). If your hands are busy holding your hips aloft, let the giver hold a wand vibrator against your clit instead.

Giver, try teasing the vibrator over your lover’s nipples, thighs, and labia before you finally press it against their clit. It’ll feel ever better if you dab lube against their clit first.

Make it even kinkier

If you’re on top, you can grip the receiving partner’s thighs or hips, squeezing your fingers to act as though you’re pinning them down. Use your words (e.g. “I’ve got you right where I want you”) and a tight grip, to lean into the power dynamic without putting your bodyweight on them.

If you like being restrained, try a spreader bar. The bar attaches to your ankles with soft cuffs, pushing your legs apart. If you’re the receiver, your legs will be kept in sexy spread eagle while you feel deliciously immobilized and ready for ravishing.
