Doggy style: a classic position of Kamasutra
Doggy is one of the most famous sexual positions of Kamasutra. Some blame its for too animal side and his lack of intimacy between the partners. How to have fun, for men and women, practising doggy?
What is doggie?
Doggy is one of the best known sexual positions. It is part, as well as the missionary or the Amazon, of the great classics of Kamasutra. The woman is on her knees, resting on her hands or forearms, and the man, on her knees too, comes to penetrate her from behind, holding her by the hips. This position adapts just as well to vaginal penetration as anal penetration. Several explanations are proposed, but legend has it that it takes its name from the female greyhound, a dog that has the distinction of having the front legs shorter than the hind legs.
What are the advantages of this position?
If you like positions where the penetration is relatively deep, doggy style can be made for you. It also makes it possible to adapt the rhythm according to the desires of the two partners. Because of its stability, the doggie can be practiced relatively long, varying the rhythms and phases of acceleration. Indeed, depending on the angle of inclination and speed, the greyhound allows the man to be able to alter the intensity of movement and penetration. Finally, like all back positions, doggy style does not enable to see his partner. However, this relative distance may allow some timid to feel better and better able to let go during sex. Feeling less “watched” can be liberating and give free rein to emotions and expressions.
Why some do not like the doggy?
The doggy style is often associated with a position where the man “dominates” the woman, because of the hold he has on his movements and his position “above” the woman. It is also sometimes criticized for being too bestial, because of its similarity with animal sexual positions. However, there is no correlation to do: love doggystyle does not mean that we like to be dominated, or that we are subject to his partner. The other disadvantage that is sometimes reproached to this sexual position is the lack of proximity and intimacy between the partners. Since the woman is behind, it is not possible to be able to see her and to witness the expressions on her face. It is also difficult for partners to kiss each other or to caress each other. Thus, some blame the greyhound its too “wild” side, devoid of contact. It is, however, possible to bring variations to the position, so that it adapts to all desires.
How to take pleasure with the doggy style
Despite appearances, the woman has a lot of control in the doggy. By varying its inclination, the spacing of its legs or the chamber of her back, it is she who decides the angle of penetration and depth. Thus, the greyhound can be used to stimulate her G-spot quite easily, by getting up or leaning more or less. Similarly, this position allows the man, who has his hands free, to caress the clitoris at the same time as the penetration takes place. This double stimulation makes it possible to provide intense sensations to one’s partner. He can also choose to caress her breasts, buttocks or kidneys while continuing her back and forth. For her part, the woman can also masturbate during the report, to stimulate her clitoris and increase her pleasure.
The different variations to change the position
Like the missionary, doggy is a basic position to which variations can easily be performed. For example, the woman can rest on her forearms instead of her hands, to further tilt her back and thus have a deeper and more intense penetration. She can instead raise her bust and bear only on her legs and come to a body-to-body with his partner. This variant makes it possible to bring a more intimate dimension to the position, because of the privileged contact between the busts. In the same way, it allows the partners to be able to exchange kisses and more intense caresses on the breasts or the clitoris. The man can also carry the ankles of his partner until raising it: this position is called the wheelbarrow. This variation, however, requires more skill and is less easy to maintain over time. Finally, it is quite possible to integrate a vibrator on the greyhound, to vary the forms of penetration.
