Women On Top

needsomesextips · 17/03/2011 12:25

The long ans short of it is I was married but have separated from my husband and our sex life was non-existent. I now have a new boyfriend and am rediscovering the joys of sex but I am not very confident when in the woman on top position.

It is not a question of him wanting me to do something i'm not confident with, just that I am pretty inexperienced. So, ladies what do you actually do once you've climbed on board?

I tend to read my book, I find the bridge of his nose makes a fab bookrest. :)

Knitting is a bit more difficult as the yarn tickles his nose, and the needles have nearly had his eye out once or twice. :)

JeffTracy · 17/03/2011 14:28

squeaky - I agree with you on the dangers of knitting. Last time I got carried away, there was a loud pop and all the air rushed out. Now I have to get a new partner Sad

I used to have a telly in the bedroom for such eventualities. Since getting divorced though I've concluded that a chair is so much more comfortable.

I've already reported this and was told it's a name changer as far as MNHQ can see. Smile

We do a sort of 9 1/2 Weeks thing. I especially enjoy a good Biscuit

JessicaDrew · 17/03/2011 14:47

when the telly is on its best to just stick to them on top!
or you end up with them leaning round you to see match of the day [hmmm]

HecateTheCrone · 17/03/2011 14:47

basically?

You bounce up and down until he stops breathing.

Then you lay your nice new rug in front of the fire.

Just me then?...

Pretend you're on a horse. Walking or trotting, depending on your mood. Make sure to feed him sugar lumps at regular intervals.

There is actually a book called Women On Top by Nancy Friday OP, it might be worth a read? Give you a few, ahem, pointers?

BigBadMummy · 17/03/2011 15:02

I find that the best way when on top is facing the other way.

Really great.

Because it means I can log on to Mumsnet on my BlackBerry.

JD - its all about YOU isn't it? How am I supposed to see Alan Hansen and Gary Lineker like that? Confused

Hours of fun to be had on that website. Smile

nickelbabysnatcher · 17/03/2011 16:47

so if it's a namechanger, can we please stop teasing?
(unless it's supposed to be tongue in cheek)

at the risk of giving away too much - I found with my ex, very often it was the only way I actually got anything out of it.
It took me ages to do it with DH because of this.

jsut start off slowly - do it for a minute or so, or lean forward onto him so that you're not too "exposed"?

I name changed because some friends IRL know my usual MN name and it is a bit embarrassing.

I was married for a long time and like I said the sex was non-existant and I have only one other partner and my new BF so despite nearly being 40 I am pretty inexperiences (like I said).

Anyway, whatever Hmm

*thanks to the posters who made constructive replies xx

I have always found myself a bit more wary of this position mainly because I fell like it's a performace. I find leaning into your partner so he gets a face full of boobs helps, it gives you more balance to get a good grind going.
Also its a bit less exposing to do it while he sits up in a chair so your a bit closer and you have the back/arms of the chair to grip. hth.

lookingfoxy · 17/03/2011 18:25

Also you can lean back slightly (grab his legs behind you for balance) to really go for it, would maybe leave that until your more confident though.

TBS, yes, I do feel very exposed and that I am a bit rubbish technique wise :-/

LF, I hope to go for it eventually!

needsome - apologies for reporting your thread. I hope you understand why....... Blush

I find on top is rather painful as I have the remains of severe SPD and chronic lower back pain. Plus DH is rather, erm, gifted in that area. Wink

But, if DH takes control so to speak, and moves my hips for me, gridning rather than up and down, it's easier IYSWIM?

I'm no spring chicken, have a bit of a baby belly and my boobs have seen better days but so bloody what!

Go for it when YOU feel ready. Smile

DrunkenDaisy · 17/03/2011 21:23

i like to stick a big butt-plug up his bum; one with the horses tail sitcking out.
