To do the butter churner position, the person on the bottom puts their legs straight up. Roger Diaz Gomez/Getty Images The butter churner sex position involves the receiving person putting their legs in the air. The penetrating partner then puts their legs on either side of their partner and squats to enter.
It allows for deep penetration and may even help you get a yoga-adjacent workout. If you’re bored of rotating through missionary, cowgirl, and doggy style during sex, it’s time to switch it up in the bedroom. Trying new positions can help you unlock different types of orgasms, new kinks, and simply have more fun.
You can turn your sex life on its head (quite literally) with the butter churner sex position — which is probably unlike any position you’ve tried before. Not for the faint of heart, the butter churner will require some athleticism, flexibility, and an open mind. Here’s how to do the butter churner, including some simpler variations.
What is the butter churner?”The butter churner is a yoga-meets-sex position in which the receiving partner is inverted in the ‘plough’ position,” says Rachel Zar, a certified sex therapist at Spark Chicago Therapy. To get into the position, Zar says to follow these steps:1. The receiving partner lies on their back, and then lifts the lower half of their body by propping themselves up with their hands on their lower back.
2. The receiving partner uses this leverage to push their butt in the air so their feet are either up above them, or their body is folded in half with their legs and feet on either side of their shoulders/head. (This will vary based on personal mobility and flexibility) 3.
The penetrating partner stands with their feet on either side of their partner, and squats down to penetrate with their penis or a toy. As for some tips to make it feel more comfortable, the standing partner can help take some pressure off their partner’s back by helping hold their partner’s legs up, Zar says. Or, if the standing partner is feeling unsteady, they can lean their hands against a wall for support and relieve some pressure from their knees and thighs.
Zar suggests you both “be there for a good time, but maybe not for a long time. ” Listen to your body and lay off if you get too uncomfortable. “If you’re noticing the work of holding the pose more than the pleasure of being in it, move on to something else,” Zar says.
Benefits of butter churner sex positionNeed some more inspiration to try this position? Here are four reasons the butter churner is a great one:1. It’s a workout: “If you’re someone who enjoys working up a sweat during sex, this one’s for you. The exercise and movement inherent in this pose will get your heart rate up and your blood pumping,” Zar says.
2. It’s a novelty: When you’re used to going through the same positions every time you have sex, adding some novelty can really spice up your sex life. Zar says it can be thrilling to incorporate a new position, even if it doesn’t become a go-to in the future.
Not to mention, it’s a hot visual. “Seeing your partner all pretzeled up can be uniquely exciting,” Zar says. 3.
It allows for deep penetration: With the receiving partner in this open position, it allows for deep penetration, which can be pleasurable for both parties. Not only is it deep, but Zar says it also allows for a new angle of penetration, and the receiving partner will experience extra friction on the front wall of their vagina, which is often extra sensitive. 4.
It’s like a yoga inversion pose: “For the receiving partner, you also get all the feel-good benefits of inversions in yoga class, including a rush of blood to the head, which some really enjoy,” Zar says. Butter churner variationsThe butter churner isn’t for everyone. “Unfortunately, this position is not accessible or sustainable for many.
We can, however, use more ‘beginner friendly’ yoga poses to receive similar sensations and stimulation,” says Rachel Smith, a sex therapist at Infinite Intimacy Therapy. Here are three variations recommended by Smith:1. The bridge variation “A shoulder stand requires both your back and legs to lift all the way up in the air.
The bridge, however, allows for your feet to stay planted on the floor while you elevate your back through your hips,” Smith says. This is an easier way to be in a sexy position, but still enjoy deep penetration. How to do it:1.
The receiving partner lies flat on their back with their knees bent, feet hip-width apart, slowly lifting their butt off the bed until their knees are in line with their hips. 2. The receiving partner draws their shoulder blades together and keeps their forearms firmly on the bed to support their weight and keep their hips elevated.
3. The penetrating partner kneels between their partner’s hips to penetrate. As a bonus, they can hold their partner’s hips up to take some pressure off their partner’s arms as they thrust.
In this position, there’s direct access to the clitoris. Smith says you can use this opportunity to add clitoral stimulation into the mix, with either partner stimulating the clitoris with fingers or toys. 2.
The happy baby variation “This position allows for a very similar type of penetration as the butter churner, except your back is fully flat on the floor or bed and your legs are hinged at the hip and bent in a 90 degree angle over you instead of up in the air,” Smith says. How to do it:1. The receiving partner lies flat on their back, draws their knees up to their chest.
2. The receiving partner flexes their feet to face the ceiling, and then reaches up their hands to hold the inner or outer sides of their feet, gently pulling their knees to the sides of the body and towards the floor. 3.
The penetrating partner gets between their partners spread legs and enters. If the receiving partner isn’t flexible, they can keep their legs fully bent, drawing their knees into their ribcage while holding onto their shins, Smith says. For more comfort, you can put a pillow underneath the receiving partner’s butt to support their lower back.
3. The Legs-on-shoulders variation “This is a position that can be accessible for people with certain physical limitations because it only requires the receiver to lay flat on their back, while their partner can assist with lifting and holding their legs in place,” Smith says. Not to mention, it still offers deep penetration, and since the legs are closer together, you might get even more G-spot stimulation.
How to do it: 1. The receiving partner lies flat on their back and lifts their legs straight up, forming a 90 degree angle. Alternatively, their partner can lift up their legs and hold them in place for them.
2. The receiving partner rests each of their legs on either side of their partner’s shoulders. 3.
The penetrating partner enters. To make things even more comfortable for the receiving partner, put a pillow under the small of their back to help elevate the hips a bit, Smith says. Insider’s takeawayThe butter churner is a fun and unique sex position to add to your repertoire and spice things up in the bedroom.
However, since for some people it’s so easy and it may get uncomfortable after a while, don’t be afraid to move onto a variation or another position altogether. “A lot of people can get frustrated when trying new sex positions, thinking that they have to ‘get it right’ or ‘perfect’ in some way. This mindset can take away from how fun and exciting the experience can be as a whole, especially when embracing novelty,” Smith says.
So, when you’re trying new positions, Smith suggests taking a lighthearted approach. Remember: sex is all about exploration and having fun, and there’s certainly no shortage of sex positions to play around with. Read the original article on Insider.
