Kama Sutra: The Spider

On a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate position (1 as horrible, 10 as sexual nirvana)? 


This position receives a 3.


Did you have difficulty getting into the position?  Yes we did. The first item of difficulty for the man will be lying back while maintaining penetration at the same time. Now I may be no John Holmes, but for most positions, I have plenty of erection to work with. But the way this position is set up, you need a good 8 to 9 inches to really achieve decent penetration, otherwise you will be rimming it the whole time. I must admit here that this problem will be escalated if your partner has a bubble butt, which mine does.


Did you feel like a pretzel? Were you able to do the motions once in position?  We felt like two sticks screwing. Which to be honest, explains the entire feeling that this position will give you, which I will get to here in a minute.


Any recommendations on getting either in or out of this position:  You are probably going to want to exit out of this one pretty quickly, which for the guy is as easy as sitting up, putting your hands under both her knees, pinning her legs behind her head like Bugs Bunny, and getting out all your frustrations from the previous position.


How long did you last in the position?  8 minutes, although it is possible that it just seemed that damn long!


Enjoyment once you were in position (for the woman):  She likes it slow, she likes it romantic, but geriatric... no!


Enjoyment once you were in position (for the man):  Ditto, this position is boring as hell!


Was the position comfortable? Were you able to relax?


      Man:  Yes, this position is a sleeper. Even if she is not in the mood and has a headache, she has absolutely no excuse not to be in the mood for this position.


      Woman:  She was plenty comfortable and relaxed.


Would you consider this to be an intimate position (Why or why not)?  This is one of the least intimate positions we have experienced with each other. The only way a couple could get less intimate would be if they were in the same room screwing somebody else. It is that bad.


Are you achy or sore after the fact?


      Man:  My entire body ached for 9 days... Not!


 Woman:  No.


What did the position feel like (both mentally and physically) in 50 words or less?  We've all heard the phrase, “That's about as exciting as watching two flies f***.” Well, this position is about as exciting as watching two sticks f***, which is a hell of a lot more boring than a fly! If you don't believe me, try it!


Did she reach orgasm?  ...You kidding?


Did he reach orgasm?  ...No.


Did it take longer than usual to reach orgasm?  Yes, I calculate that we would have achieved orgasm by the time world peace was initiated.


Would you do this position again (why or why not)?  No, no, no... There is too much against you with this position. We both like a challenge, but there has to be a fighting chance for you to actually get the job done. This position is simply a tease.


Any suggestions to make the position more pleasurable:  If you can talk your partner into a third person to add more action into the mix, then you just might be able to get a decent party going. I'd try it if I could, but a ménage is not in my partner's vocabulary!

The Spider begins with the couple facing each other, both in a seated position. The woman is the first to lie back, while the man scoots in between her legs achieving penetration. Next, it's the man's turn to lie back, being careful to maintain his erection inside her. If the couple is in the position correctly, each partner should be lying flat on their back with their head in between the others legs, buttocks touching. To improve the possibility of greater movement, the couple can bring both knees up so that they each have something to grip during the motions. The couple is now instructed to wiggle, gyrate, and grind their buttocks anyway they like.
