Position of the Week:
Bridge to Bliss

It’s a muscular display of lust this week, as we show you how to lift your partner to your mouth and make them forget their own name. You can do it, tiger!

Why?

This isn't your average sex position – it's a sky-scraping, architectural oral position to blow you both (sorry) away. Most of us are used to receiving oral while lying on our back. Switching it up can make every lick feel brand new, and this “from behind” angle makes it easy to incorporate rimming should you wish.

The elevation also creates natural tension in the receiving partner's muscles, engaging their core and intensifying every sensation. There’s something primal and intense about gripping onto each other during sex, relying on raw strength and horniness to stay in position.

Make it even easier

Not everyone can hold themselves up London Bridge-style, and that's totally fine! Grab some pillows or a sex wedge and create a ramp system under the receiving partner's hips instead. You’ll need to get lower to hook their legs on your shoulders, so try leaning forward on your elbows.

Even better – use the arm of your sofa or the edge of your bed. Have your lover drape over it naturally while you position yourself behind, keeling on a cushion. This puts your hungry mouth right next to their sweet spots – no need for biceps of steel!

Make it even better

A vibrating butt plug or love egg adds incredible internal sensations while keeping your hands free to explore other erogenous zones. You can choose who wears the toy, as it won’t get in the way of oral – but there’s no reason the receiver should get all the fun.

Pick one with a remote and hand over controls to the receiving partner, while the giver wears the toy. The receiver can up the intensity of vibrations to signal when they want more, more, more. As the giver, you’ll need to do your best to focus on pleasuring your lover while your body feels the thrill of deep, rumbly vibrations.

Make it even kinkier

A dildo gag transforms the giving partner into a living sex toy, to be “used” at the receiving partner’s will. A lot of specialist kink gear can be costly, but a dildo gag is a pretty inexpensive way to bring the illicit thrill of BDSM into your sex life.

Gagged, the giving partner is unable to speak, which makes them deliciously subservient. Just be sure you have an agreed “safe action” that the gagged partner can easily do to signal to the receiver if they want to stop.

You could even wear nipple clamps connected by a chain for the receiver to tug on – perhaps to let you know you need to work harder between their legs...

Not the position for you?

No matter who you love, or how you identify, we want you to feel represented on our website. That's why you'll see gay, lesbian, non-binary, and straight couples in our illustrations, and gender neutral language in the description of each position. If this position doesn't quite work for your relationship dynamic, check in next week – you may see something you like!
