The 69 sex position: Half the time, double the fun of oral sex

My inches. Yesterday,

Are you big fan of oral sex? Does your partner match your excitement when it comes to going down? If your answer is yes, then 69 is a sex position that is tailor-made for you.

How to do it?

69 is a position where both partners are mutually inverted and perform oral sex on each other at the same time. It can be performed both with man on top and woman on top. Some people even do it sideways as it is a more relaxed position than others. Despite its popularity, 69 is not an easy position to master and can take some co-ordination and manoeuvring for both partners to get comfortable.

Pros

Being tough to master, 69 can be a great way to improve coordination and make both partners understand each other really well. This is always a plus in any sex position. 69 can be a great position to spice things up. If things are getting boring and monotonous in the bedroom, 69 will make it fun and challenging again! It also saves time as you don't have to take turns to perform oral sex. Another major benefit is that chance of unwanted pregnancies is nil. The risk of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases is also lower than unprotected anal or vaginal sex. However, it can lead to STDs like herpes, throat, Chlamydia and throat gonorrhoea. You should know your partner's sexual history to be safe.

Cons

Oral sex is not for everyone and thus this position won't be too. Also one partner may come before the other and that can take the whole steam out of this sex position.  Both partners need to be compatible in terms of weight and height. Otherwise, this sex position will become too uncomfortable to enjoy. The nature of this sex position is such that some people feel suffocated while performing it.

The 69 or soixante-neuf (to use its proper French name) is kind of like fine wine. Some love it and swear by it, while others, no matter how good the wine, would rather stick to beer. So try it and let us know whether you're a wine connoisseur or a beer guzzler!
