Here’s how to have great sex despite the height difference.
It’s easy to assume that when there’s a big height difference between partners, sex can feel like trial and error. It’s easy to imagine that your nuts and their bolts won’t line up, and if they do, you get a strained back or muscles. What’s supposed to be hot, turns into a yoga or pilates class.
But let’s look at the positive side, a research from Eduindex.org states that couples with biggest height gaps often report the highest levels of relationship satisfaction. In fact, shorter receivers paired with taller givers tend to have strong bonds and happier relationships overall.
It only means one thing: What happens in the bedroom could work. You don’t have to go for awkward angles. There are different ways you can enjoy sex. You just need to know the right positions and add a little tweak to make the height gap work.
12 Best Sex Positions for Tall Guys and Short Women
Here are the best sex positions for tall guys and short women. No awkward body-bending sex positions included:
1. Stand & Carry
How:
The giver lifts the receiver and holds them close, with the receiver’s legs wrapped around the giver’s waist and arms around the neck for support. The giver grips the thighs and controls the motion by moving the receiver up and down.
Protip:
This sex position needs balance and strength, so make sure the giver is stable before going for it. If carrying gets tiring, swap the lift for a sex swing or lean against the wall for support.
2. Doggy Style (a.k.a Corgi Style)
How:
The receiver gets down on hands and knees while the giver goes behind their partner. With a little hip adjustment, the height difference doesn’t matter; everything will line up just fine. The doggy style allows deeper penetration, and it also frees up their hands so they can use them to stimulate their partner.
Protip:
The giver can reach their partner’s chest or rub their clitoris for double fun. If you want to mix things up, the receiver can grab a toy, such as the Heart, for added clitoral stimulation.
3. Pretzel Dip
How:
The receiver lies on their right side while the giver kneels and straddles their partner’s lower leg. The receiver’s top leg curls around the giver’s side, creating a snug angle. This position allows deep and controlled thrust while allowing deep eye contact.
Protip:
Use this angle to your advantage. Both your hands are free to explore each other’s erogenous zones, like the chest or thighs, to up the heat. A pillow under the receiver’s hips can also make the experience even more relaxed.
4. Cowgirl
How:
The receiver straddles the giver, who’s lying on their back. The receiver sets the rhythm, depth, and the pace of the penetration.
Protip:
The partners can turn this into an intimate ride by maintaining eye contact and looking at each other’s expressions. Since, the receiver is the one in control, they can lean forward for more clit stimulation or lean back for a deeper angle.
If the partners want to level up their experience, they can use the Abe cock ring, which is a perfect toy to stimulate both partners at the same time. And this can be controlled with a remote.
5. Lotus
How:
The giver sits down with their feet tucked under their butt, while the receiver straddles them and wraps their arms around the giver’s neck. Think of it as a full-body hug with a sexy twist. This position is slow, mindful, and perfect if the partners are in the mood for something more intimate.
Protip:
Lock eyes and take it slow, because this is where the emotional connection comes in. If you want to turn up the heat, you can use a Kiala, a wearable nipple cover massager, which is best for extra stimulation while you lock in that embrace.
6. Leap Frog
How:
The Leap Frog is a doggy style variation, but this time, the receiver gets down with their chest and face pressed into a pillow and their hips lifted up high. The giver positions themselves behind and takes control from there.
Protip:
Slide a pillow or wedge under the receiver’s hips to change the angle and take the pressure off their lower back, providing a comfortable experience.
7. Missionary
How:
The receiver lies on their back while the giver positions themselves on top, face-to-face with their partner. This position is the go-to. It’s a simple classic sex position that offers one of the most intimate ways for connection.
Protip:
The receiver can touch their partner’s chest and stomach with their hands, adding more stimulation while keeping eye contact. The receiver can also use a pillow under their hips to help with the angle and make the penetration deeper.
8. Snake
How:
The receiver lies flat on their stomach with their hips slightly raised for a good penetration angle. The giver kneels behind and leans forward to penetrate their partner from the back. It’s like a Leap Frog variation but with less arching and more angle.
Protip:
Place a pillow under the hips for comfort and to keep the angle just right. This takes pressure off the lower back and lets the receiver relax while still enjoying a deep thrust.
9. Spooning
How:
Both partners lie on their sides, with the receiver in front and the giver right behind. It’s like that comfy cuddling with a naughty twist. The giver penetrates their partner from behind. They can also lift the receiver’s top leg for easier access and deeper thrust.
Protip:
Use a toy like Tara for a double penetration feel while the giver focuses on the backside. The receiver can also tweak the angle by shifting their hips or tucking a pillow between their legs for comfort and pleasure.
10. Corkscrew
How:
The receiver lies on their side at the very edge of the bed or couch with their legs pressed together. The giver stands or kneels just behind and enters their partner from the back.
Protip:
The receiver can place a pillow between their thighs to tweak the tightness and angle, while the giver can use their hands to explore their partner’s body, such as the breasts and the clit.
11. Reverse Cowgirl
How:
The receiver straddles the giver, just like in the classic cowgirl, but this time, they’re facing away. That means that the giver gets a front-row seat to the receiver’s backside, while the receiver is in control of the speed, angle, and depth.
Protip:
Leaning back or forward can change the sensation for the receiver, and they can rest their hands on their partner’s thighs or legs to steady themselves. For added stimulation, the receiving partner can use the naughty clock to stimulate the clitoris while riding.
12. Lap Dance
How:
The giver sits back on their knees with legs tucked under, similar to lotus, or they can sit on a chair. The receiver then straddles their partner facing away and their knees or legs on either side of their partner’s thighs.
Protip:
The giver can tease the receiver’s chest or clit with their hands or level things with the Ugly Tongue to stimulate other erogenous zones while having sex.
Sex Advice for Height-Different Couples
Think of your height difference as an advantage instead of a barrier. It allows you to have a more fun and creative intimate experience. Here are some tips to keep sex comfortable, safe, and satisfying:
Use Props
Use pillows, wedge, or a sturdy piece of furniture to find the right angle. A prop can lift the receiver’s hips just right or change the angle to make everything line up better.
Modify Body Angles
Try elevating the legs, tilting the hips or slipping arms under the legs to find that sweet spot. As mentioned, use props for a more comfortable experience. Do not be afraid to experiment. Who knows, you might be able to come up with your own Kama Sutra-worthy sex position.
Communicate
Check in with each other. Don’t be afraid to laugh when things get awkward. You can include some dirty talk if that will make the atmosphere in bed hotter.
Ensure Stability
Make sure the table, or whatever you’re using is not wobbly. Nothing kills the mood faster than a wobbling furniture or a crash mid-thrust. Safety ensures you’ll achieve the climax without injury.
Comfort First
At the end of the day, the hottest thing is knowing what you both are into. It’s possible through open communication and checking in. Trying new sex positions should always feel safe, mutual, and fun.
Conclusion
Having a partner who’s way taller or shorter than you is normal and common. According to Science Direct, many women prefer taller partners. The point is, height gaps happen, and they don’t have to get in the way of great sex.
With the right sex positions (and maybe a trusty toy or two), you can turn this height difference into an advantage. Imagine deeper angles, new sensations,and sex positions that just hit right because of your unique fit.
So, instead of stressing over height, focus on making the most of it. And if you want to level up your bedroom intimate experience, grab a toy that pairs perfectly with your go-to position, like the ones you’ll find at BeYourLover.
