Perhaps the most empowering position for women, sex with the woman on top is a great treat for the guy as well. It gives the woman the ability to control the speed and depth of penetration while it frees the man’s hands for exploring her body.

From Quick Guide: Sex Guide
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Lubricant
  • Condom
  1. Step 1

    Get naked with your partner and find a flat, comfortable surface--a nice, soft bed is preferable.

  2. Step 2

    The man should lie on his back while the woman gets on her knees and straddles him. She should face the man to make it easy for kissing and caressing.

  3. Step 3

    Slide the penis into the vagina. The woman can now move up and down, side to side, or however she wants. She controls the speed and depth of the intercourse.

Tips & Warnings
  • This arrangement is also known as the "cowgirl" position.
  • The female can also face backwards, with her buttocks toward the man's head--the "reverse cowgirl." This position allows for even deeper penetration.
  • Many women say it is easier to achieve orgasm in this position.
  • Use a condom or other form of birth control. Condoms also reduce the risk of spreading sexually transmitted diseases.
  • It may take practice for the woman to find the correct angle so as not to crush the man’s penis.

on 2/4/2009 I think the most important thing is that each need to be in the right frame of mind. Sex is mental If you are thinking about the crap that went down at work, you ain't gonna reach any orgasmic climax no matter what the position or how big the male's **** is. This is especially true for woman. So men, it is up to us to mentally take them away from it all; even from themselves.
