Want deeper penetration and stronger orgasms? Try the Viennese Oyster sex position

People often say the honeymoon period of any relationship is when you have the best sex. But this isn’t necessarily true. Sure, you and your partner can’t keep your hands off each other during this phase. Your hormones are raging and every moment alone is spent kissing or caressing. But the honeymoon period is also when you’re still getting to know one another, sexually and otherwise. And so, the best sex of your relationship comes after your honeymoon period, when you are more comfortable around each other and have formed a rhythm.

Even then, you have to be open to shaking things up once in a while to keep your sex life sparkling. We aren’t saying every romp in the sack must be a high-intensity one. You can resort to your top three favourite positions that are well within your comfort zone and are guaranteed to push you over the climactic edge. But if you don’t throw new experiences in the mix every once in a while, things will start to feel monotonous. You’ll be in a rut and that is the worst thing you can do for your sex life.   

A lot of people have varying opinions about the missionary position and it gets a bad rep of being too vanilla. While we don’t subscribe to this line of thought, we agree that variations of classic positions are one of the best ways to keep things interesting and red-hot in bed. Having said that, the missionary variation we are talking about today is the Viennese Oyster, which is anything but basic. Full disclosure though, you will have to stretch a little beforehand to avoid an unexplainable sex injury. 

How to do the Viennese Oyster?  

This raunchy sex position requires you to be as bendy as Pheobe Buffay (Friends). It’s all about deep penetration and giving control to the penetrating partner. The receiving partner lies on their back and spreads their legs up to get into position. Their partner then grabs their ankles and bends their legs towards their head. If you’re a gymnast this means bringing your legs behind your ears. The rest of us have to take it as far as we can go. Once the receiving partner is in position, the penetrator starts thrusting. If you want to add a little extra spice to this position, move the whole thing to the edge of the bed so the penetrating partner can stand and do their thing.
