It happens to everyone, but a simple pillow changes everything by giving that perfect lift for smooth alignment and making sex way more fun.
No more awkward twists. Just comfy, deeper thrills in every position.
If you're ready to unlock game-changing sex pillow positions to make intimacy feel amazing, then your upgrade awaits!
What Is a Sex Pillow?
Sex pillows are game-changers for bedroom comfort, and unlike everyday pillows that flop under weight, these stay firm, angled, and supportive so you can hold positions longer without strain.
They come in a few main types:
Wedge
Triangle-shaped and extra sturdy, like a mini ramp for popping hips or knees higher. A wedge makes those awkward angles way easier without wearing out your arms or legs.
Ramp
A ramp is larger with full back support for reclining into deeper moves, and awesome if mobility is an issue, but it takes up more closet space.
Mount
Long, bolster-style with a toy slot inside, that's perfect for solo grinding or when you want hands-free action.
Sex Pillow Positions That Make Intimacy a Breeze
If you ever find a position that wobbles around and leaves you sore the next day, then these pillow sex hacks can make everything easy peasy.
1. The Jockey
Ever tried the Jockey where you're on your stomach like a horse and your partner rides from behind? It rocks for vaginal or anal play.
To do this, just lie face down on the bed, slide a pillow or wedge under your hips to lift things up nicely, then have your partner straddle your waist and slide in.
They can tweak the angle by leaning forward or back, or shifting their knees to hit all the right spots.
Love feeling submissive? This one's perfect as the receiver, but if you're penetrating and crave some control, you'll dig it too.
Toy tip:
If you receive, you can slip a small vibrator between your legs for buzzing clitoral fun while they thrust.
2. Missionary
Missionary is the classic that everyone knows and loves, and all you gotta do is add a pillow, and it gets even better.
To nail it, the receiver can lie on their back and slide a wedge or firm pillow under their hips to lift them up comfortably.
Your partner then kneels or leans right over you, faces you, and shifts a tad for the perfect fit.
That hip lift makes every thrust deeper and super smooth.
Toy Tip:
The receiver can try wearing some nipple clamps to allow their partner’s hands to roam on their other erogenous spots.
3. Doggy Style
Doggy's a timeless fave, and popping a ramp or pillow under your hips takes it to the next level. Comfier for the receiver, easier angle for the giver.
First, place the pillow on the bed, high end toward the receiver, low end by the headboard, then lie stomach-down with hips on the high slope, while your partner kneels behind and slides in for vaginal or anal.
Great if you're holding the pose for a while or want less arm workout.
Toy tip:
Reach for a vibrating cock ring on the giver for shared vibes.
4. Butterfly
This one's a killer for G-spot hits and even squirting.
Start with the giver kneeling while the receiver lies back, legs up on one shoulder, feet near their chest, so it's easy to slide a pillow under the receiver's butt for that perfect lift.
Foot fans? Bonus toe play right there.
If the angle's off, just say, have them lean forward or back, drop lower, or go deeper/shallower. They can grab your hips for rougher pulls or lean in for nipple fun.
Toy tip:
The receiver can add a curved G-spot vibrator into play to double the stimulation.
5. Easy 69
69's a total crowd-pleaser for mutual oral, but it can cramp up quickly, and a pillow or ramp fixes that fast.
For the bottom partner, just lie back with the pillow propping your hips or lower back to curve everything up nice and comfy. Then, the top partner hops on hands-and-knees for classic 69, now way easier to dive in without neck strain.
Or try this: One lies back on the ramp, head on the low end, hips lifted high, while the other climbs on top, crotches lined up perfectly.
Toy tip:
Grab a flexible vibrating wand to hold while going down on each other for buzzing boosts.
6. Oral Play With a Pillow
Sore neck from going down on your partner? A sex pillow swoops in to save the day, every time.
The receiver just chills on their back, wedge under hips, lower back, or butt for that sweet, perfect lift. The giver gets on hands-and-knees or stomach for comfy oral, no awkward bends. Works great for oral eating, rimming, or flipping roles.
Or switch it: The giver lies on the ramp, head low, hips up. The receiver straddles their face, hands down for balance, to offer cunnilingus or a blowjob.
Toy tip:
The giver can grab an anal toy to play with themselves while licking their partner.
7. Cowgirl With a Twist
Craving a fun twist on cowgirl? You'll love this one.
The giver lies flat on their back with a wedge tucked under their hips for lift, while the receiver climbs on top like a regular cowgirl but leans back slightly, folds their legs, and rests them by the giver's chest.
Then, the receiver rocks their hips back and forth or bounces up and down, going at whatever pace feels right.
For the flip side, the giver lies back with a ramp propping up their back, shoulders, and head, plus a wedge under their knees, while the receiver hops on and rides just like classic cowgirl.
8. Lustful Cobra
About intermediate, nothing too wild.
Picture a comfy reverse cowgirl where a ramp pillow props the bottom partner up, relaxed. The top partner straddles the same direction, hits that feel-good inside spot easily, and controls the ride.
The bottom partner chills back on the ramp, while the top one swings a leg over, facing forward, plants hands for balance, slides down onto the penis or strap-on, and rocks however feels right.
9. The Pinned Butterfly
Use a firm sex pillow as comfy support underneath, and the receiving partner lies back on it with hands "tied" above their head (you can use safety cuffs and blindfolds), while the giving partner climbs on top and slides in.
With arms held back and chest exposed, giver can tease their partners with feathers, nipple play, or warm massage, and candle drip.
Pro tip:
Amp it with a soft flogger or tickler for that extra tingle.
10. Lazy Dog
Not feeling regular doggy? This prone twist works wonders, especially if you want more snugness.
First, the receiver lies flat on their stomach, pillow under their belly and pelvis for a nice hip lift, legs squeezed tightly together.
The giver slides in from behind, the squeezed legs make everything feel tighter and oh-so-good for both.
Pro tip:
Grab another pillow to muffle those moans.
11. Pillow Pet
This one's great for solo play or putting on a show for your partner.
You tuck a vibrator snugly between two pillows and kneel over it with your knees on either side for hands-free, buzzy fun.
Stack the pillows nice and firm, snuggle the vibe while it’s pointing upward, then straddle and lower yourself onto it before riding however feels best.
Your partner will love watching, or they can jump in too.
12. Deep Plunge
Super simple way to go nice and deep, so every thrust hits the good spots inside.
Put the ramp at the bed edge, and let the receiver lie back on it and put their legs up. The giver stands close, grabs the hips, rests the receiver's feet on their chest (knees fold easily), and slides in for vaginal or anal fun.
If heights are off, the giver can bend their knees a bit.
Why Sex Pillows are Awesome
Sex pillows make everything comfier and hotter by fixing common bedroom aches, and here's the simple scoop.
Deeper Thrusts Without the Ouch
Ever get that sharp twinge or ache during missionary or doggy? It's usually bad angles bumping sensitive spots inside, not size.
If you're a vulva owner, one wrong tilt of your hips can make a toy or penis poke your insides uncomfortably. And penis owners can feel soreness if they bend their thing awkwardly or forcefully.
Per a Cleveland Clinic article, penile fractures can hurt enough to kill your erection on the spot, and may call for surgery to fix.
A sex pillow lifts the hips just right to line bodies up perfectly, and prevent these mishaps from happening.
Less Strain on Your Body
These pillows take the work off knees, backs, and joints, so you stay in the moment.
Perfect for:
- New moms easing back into intimacy
- Plus-size couples
- People with mobility challenges
- Anyone wanting an easy support
Easier Hot-Spot Hits
Pillows give you better access to those sweet internal spots.
For vulva owners, the G-spot is 2-3 inches in on the front wall, while for penis owners, the P-spot, or prostate, is 2-3 inches in on the rectum. The right angle lets massage or play hit it easily.
Some Sex Pillow Tips
As we wrap things up, you can keep these tips below in mind:
Get Consent
If you're playing with a partner, chat about it first and get their enthusiastic yes, because even though a sex pillow isn't something that goes directly on the body like a vibe or dildo, it's still a no-go without them knowing.
Always loop them in before adding anything new to the bedroom, so everyone's comfy, safe, and really interested to try it. Plus, you get to geek out together in the hottest positions to start with!
Pick the Perfect One
It's tempting to dash to your go-to sex toy shop and snag the first pillow that catches your eye, but hold up, that could end up being a pricey regret.
Just like any sex toy, you want one that fits you right, but remember those three main types we covered? Each one's built for specific positions and vibes.
So when you're dropping cash, go for one that matches your body, play style, and bedroom goals.
Shop Smart and Clean
To get real bang for your buck, scope out where you're buying from.
Sure, cheap sex pillows are everywhere online and off, but tons use junky materials that flop on comfort and support. Stick to trusted sex toy shops for wedges and ramps that actually deliver.
Always keep it clean, because inanimate and absorbent objects like pillows can transfer STIs, as noted by Sarah Bares of Advancing Health.
Time to Get Comfy and Play
That's a wrap! And these sex pillow positions can fix those wonky angles and make your intimacy feel more amazing.
Doing it solo or with someone special, they'll make everything smoother, hotter, and just plain fun, so snag a pillow, give them a whirl (consent first!), and have a blast.
