AIBU to place a pillow underneath my bottom when I have sex in the missionary position?

[NotSuchASmugMarriedNow]

Well am I? I have a new lover and he said he'd never ever known anyone to do that!!!!! Not that he minded, just that he hadn't seet it before!!! He's 55!!!!!

I've always done that, just to elevate the vagina a bit.

Tell me IANBU or even that IABU!!!!

I just want to know whether i'm "normal"

YANBU, you're very normal....or we're both abnormal

YARBU!

I do that. Issues come with leakage

You're normal, if that's what you wish to call it. I've done it and know of others who have.

I wandered on here to see if you were TTC as that is the MO of the TTCer!

Are you Liz Jones? Do you keep used condoms?

(YANBU btw - if it works for you..)

I don't know if it's an old wive's tale but I thought you were supposed to do that when TTC?

YANBU or original.

You do what you like with your pillows if it works for you. I prefer to sleep on mine.

Totally normal. It makes the "angle" more pleasurable. I'm surprised he hasn't ever come across this before.

oh my God! Definately not TTC, just always found it more comfortable that way. but then before my new lover I had the same partner for 20 years so i don't know shit about sex really.

YANBU. Better access. But make sure it's his pillow, not yours

Yadnbu. Never come across it before but will definitely try it out tonight

lol at toddlerama!!!!!

I have never heard of this during sex but did do while TTC, after sex.

I have no idea how normal it is, but I once had someone position me over a pillow in just such a manner.

I wondered at the time whether I was somehow lacking in the 'access dept' and it put me off somewhat .

I was very new to the sex, and had no idea what I was doing, or what he was doing...

wow that is sexy "wait darling I need to position pillow, OK GO!!"

I remember reading that advice in Just Seventeen, 20 years ago!

yanbu it makes that position more enjoyable

ObiWan your not lacking in anything!!!!! It's simply a better angle for some of us i think.

I'm off for an appointment now. will check in again later

Am I he only one thinking OPs fella would have actually seen this before bu is in a panic that OP is TTC??

I would say it was pretty common so dont worry about it

It's quite normal, it increases friction on the G-spot, thereby increasing the female's pleasure (and his too, presumably)

your new lover is a bit behind the door, I reckon

I've never done it but then I'd never heard of it.

Now, though... I wonder if I can stay awake late enough/can get DH to stop working long enough tonight

Definitely NBU!

I shall be trying this, thanks smug.

And congratulations on all the sex!

all you ladies trying this out tonight, don't forget your sex towel

I thought everyone did this! YANBU
