10 New Sex Positions To Try When You Want Something Hotter Than the Usual (Photos Included!)

Sometimes you do not need more sex. You need better sex. Not more of the same two positions you already know by heart. Not the lazy little rotation you fall into when everybody is tired and just trying to get off. I mean the kind of sex that makes you perk up, grab the sheets, and immediately add a position to your mental list of things you want again.

That is what this blog is about. New positions that bring different pressure, different rhythm, different access, and a whole different mood. Some are deeper. Some are more intimate. Some feel downright filthy in the best way. But all of them have one job, to make sex feel fresh, hot, and worth talking about after.

Because a good position is not just about how it looks. It is about what it unlocks. The arch in your back. The way your hips open. The grind. The stretch. The eye contact. The reach. The control. The kind of tension that turns regular sex into sex you remember.

So no, this is not a basic list. These are the positions you pull out when you want to play a little more, feel a little more, and stop letting the usual routine have all the fun.

Before You Start Getting Fancy

A few things will make trying new positions way more fun and way less awkward:

• Grab the lube. New angles can feel amazing, but they usually feel better with less friction and more glide.

• Use pillows like you mean it. Under the hips, under the knees, under the chest. A pillow can turn a good position into a great one.

• Start slow. Do not jump into a new position like your body already knows what is happening.

• Talk while you move. A little “right there,” “hold my leg,” or “slow down” can save the whole experience.

• Keep your sense of humor. Sometimes a position is hot. Sometimes it is a hard no. That is part of the fun.

Now let’s get into the good stuff.

1. Butter Churner

This one is bold, dramatic, and definitely not your casual Tuesday night starter position. But if you want a position that feels wild and memorable, here you go.

How to do it

The receiving partner lies on their back near the edge of the bed, then lifts their legs back over their head into a shoulder-stand style position. The penetrating partner squats or kneels over them and enters from above.

Why it is so sexy

The angle can create a very intense feeling of fullness and pressure. It also has that “we are really doing something filthy right now” energy that makes the whole thing feel extra sexy.

What to know first

• This position takes flexibility and control.

• Put a pillow or folded blanket under the shoulders for support.

• Go slow. Very slow.

• If the neck, back, or hips are complaining, switch positions.

Best for

• Couples who want something daring

• Deep, intense penetration

• Nights when you want the sex to feel a little outrageous

2. The Corkscrew

This one deserves way more hype. It is sexy, unique, and does not feel as complicated as it sounds.

How to do it

The receiving partner lies on their side near the edge of the bed. The penetrating partner stands or kneels behind them and enters from the back at an angle.

Why it is so sexy

It combines the closeness of spooning with a stronger, more targeted angle. It can feel deep without feeling too aggressive, and it gives the penetrating partner easy access to the hips, waist, clit, chest, or whatever else needs attention.

Make it better

• Pull the top leg slightly up or forward to adjust the angle.

• Add a hand between the thighs for clitoral stimulation.

• Use slow strokes first, then build.

Best for

• People who love back entry but want something fresher

• Deep strokes with less strain

• A sexy mix of comfort and control

3. Lotus

If you want a position that feels intimate but still sexy as hell, lotus is that girl.

How to do it

One partner sits upright, usually cross-legged on the bed or couch. The other partner climbs on top facing them, wraps their legs around their waist, and rocks or grinds while staying chest to chest.

Why it is so sexy

This is not a pound-it-out position. This is a slow, connected, grind-on-it position. It gives you eye contact, kissing, chest contact, and a lot of control over rhythm. It can also be great for clitoral stimulation because of the body-to-body pressure.

Make it better

• Use a pillow under the seated partner if needed.

• Think rocking and grinding, not bouncing.

• Talk dirty in each other’s ear and stay close.

Best for

• Slow sex that still feels intense

• Couples who want emotional and physical closeness

• Long makeout energy that turns into sex

4. G-Whiz

The name is goofy. The angle is not.

How to do it

Start in missionary. The receiving partner puts both legs up on the penetrating partner’s shoulders. The penetrating partner stays more upright and uses the lifted-leg angle to thrust deeper.

Why it is so sexy

That leg position changes everything. It can create stronger internal pressure and a much more targeted feeling, especially for anyone who likes deep penetration and wants more G-spot-focused contact.

Make it better

• Put a pillow under the hips to tilt the pelvis.

• Go with slow, deep thrusts instead of rushing.

• Add clitoral stimulation to make the whole thing even nastier.

Best for

• Missionary lovers who want more intensity

• Deeper penetration

• A strong, open angle without getting too acrobatic

5. Face-Off

This one is flirty, sexy, and perfect when you want closeness without losing that grown energy.

How to do it

One partner sits on the edge of the bed, couch, or a sturdy chair. The other partner straddles them

face to face and rides while both partners stay upright.

Why it is so sexy

You get eye contact, kissing, control, and a lot of body contact. It feels personal. It feels hungry. It feels like the kind of position where you can pull each other close, talk a little mess, and move exactly how you want.

Make it better

• Rock your hips instead of only bouncing.

• Let the seated partner grip the waist or ass and guide the rhythm.

• Drag it out. This position gets hotter when you do not rush it.

Best for

• Partners who love face-to-face sex

• Grinding and teasing

• A sexy mix of intimacy and control

6. The Pinball Wizard

This one is playful, hot, and made for people who want more pressure in all the right places.

How to do it

The receiving partner starts in a partial bridge with their upper back on the bed or floor and their hips lifted. The penetrating partner kneels between their legs and enters while helping support the hips or thighs as needed.

Why it is so sexy

The lifted hips change the angle in a big way. It can create deeper penetration, stronger internal pressure, and a very open feeling that makes every thrust feel more pronounced. It is also visually sexy and feels a little more adventurous than your usual on-the-back position.

Make it better

• Put a pillow or wedge under the lower back or hips for support.

• Let the penetrating partner hold the thighs to help with control.

• Start with slow thrusts and then build once the angle feels good.

Best for

• Couples who want a deeper, more intense angle

• People who like lifted-hip positions

• Sex that feels playful but still very dirty

7. The Ballet Dancer

Simple setup. Strong payoff.

How to do it

Both partners stand facing each other. One partner lifts one leg and wraps it around the other partner’s hip or waist while the standing partner supports them and enters standing up.

Why it is so sexy

There is something very sexy about standing sex when it is done right. This position creates closeness, urgency, and just enough instability to make it feel exciting without turning it into a circus act.

Make it better

• Use a wall for support.

• Hold the lifted leg under the thigh or behind the knee.

• Keep the thrusts shallow at first until you find the rhythm.

Best for

• Fast, heated, can’t-wait energy

• People who like standing positions without full acrobatics

• A sexy break from the bed

8. The Seashell

This one is open, deep, and not for playing shy.

How to do it

The receiving partner lies on their back and pulls their legs back toward their chest, almost folding into themselves. The penetrating partner kneels in front and enters while controlling depth and pace.

Why it is so sexy

It creates a tighter, more compressed angle that can feel intense fast. It also gives the penetrating partner a very clear line of access, which can make every movement feel more focused.

Make it better

• Support the hips with a pillow.

• Hold the backs of the thighs instead of forcing the legs too far.

• Stay slow and steady. This one does not need speed to hit.

Best for

• Deep penetration

• People who like a very open angle

• Couples who want something intense but still bed-friendly

9. Flatiron

This one is simple, sexy, and way more intense than it looks.

How to do it

The receiving partner lies flat on their stomach with their legs mostly straight or slightly apart. A pillow under the hips can help lift everything into a better position. The penetrating partner enters from behind while kneeling over them or leaning forward.

Why it is so sexy

Because the legs are closer together, the fit can feel tighter and more snug than regular back-entry positions. That creates stronger friction, a deeper feeling of pressure, and a slow, dragging kind of penetration that can feel ridiculously good.

Make it better

• Slide a pillow under the hips to change the angle.

• Go for slow strokes and occasional grinding instead of only thrusting.

• Reach around for clitoral stimulation to make it even better.

Best for

• People who want a tighter, fuller feeling

• Back-entry lovers who want something hotter than basic doggy

• Slow, deep sex with a lot of pressure

10. The Chairman

This one feels dominant, grounded, and very grown.

How to do it

The penetrating partner sits in a sturdy chair. The receiving partner backs up and lowers down onto them facing away, then leans back against their chest while riding.

Why it is so sexy

The chair changes the whole mood. It feels intentional. It feels controlled. It gives the receiving partner room to grind, bounce, or circle their hips while the seated partner uses their hands everywhere they can reach.

Make it better

• Use a chair without wheels. Please.

• Let the seated partner hold the hips and set the pace.

• Reach down and add clitoral stimulation while riding.

Best for

• People who love reverse positions

• Power, control, and visual heat

• Taking sex out of the usual bed setup

How to Keep a New Position From Turning Into a

Weird Workout

Trying something new should feel sexy, not like a fitness challenge you regret halfway through.

Here is how to keep it sexy:

1. Pick one or two positions before clothes come off.

2. Have lube nearby, not somewhere across the room.

3. Use pillows early, not after somebody is already cramping.

4. Move into the position slowly and adjust as you go.

5. If it feels off, change it. Do not force chemistry with a position your body hates.

Add-Ons That Make New Positions Even Better

A new angle is great. A new angle with the right support is even better.

You can level things up with:

• A good lubricant for smoother movement

• A small vibrator for clitoral stimulation during penetration

• A pillow or wedge for better hip support

• A little dirty talk so the position feels like part of the fantasy, not just the mechanics

Final Thoughts

Sometimes the hottest shift in your sex life is not some huge transformation., it's one bold little switch that changes the pressure, the pace, the way your body opens, and the kind of pleasure you get to feel. One new position can turn a regular night into the kind of sex that has you replaying it in your head the next day and thinking about exactly how soon you can do that again.

So pick the one that made you pause for a second. Pick the one that sounded a little filthy, a little exciting, and just daring enough to make you want to try it. Let yourself be curious, let yourself be turned on by the idea of something different, and let the night have a little more heat than usual.

Sex gets a lot better when you stop treating new positions like a test and start treating them like part of the fun. This is where you play, explore, grind a little slower, arch a little deeper, and find out what your body has been craving when the usual routine is just not hitting the same. Sometimes all it takes is the right angle, the right touch, and the right amount of nerve to turn good sex into the kind that feels deliciously hard to forget.
