10+2 Review: The Missionary Position

If you’ve had sex, you’ve probably had it missionary-style. It is one of the most frequently-used positions and often one of the first tried. Missionary often gets a bad reputation for being basic or “vanilla.” Here are ten things to know and two reviews of the tried-and-true missionary position.

1. It’s not named after missionaries. The name appears to have been coined accidentally in the 1950s by Alfred Kinsey who misinterpreted historical documents describing the position. It has also been known as the matrimonial, the Mama-Papa, and the English-American.

2. Humans have been doing missionary for a long time. Our evolutionary ancestors, the great apes, used missionary positions for sex. It is also evident in art from the earliest human civilizations. Many of the positions in the _Kama Sutra_ involve the woman laying on her back and are based off of the missionary position.

3. There are many varieties of missionary. Many varieties can be explored often by adjusting the leg positions of one or both partners. The _Viennese Oyster_ missionary position involves the woman placing both her legs behind her head while the man enters from above.

4. Shakespeare talked about missionary. In Othello, Shakespeare refers to the missionary position as “the beast with two backs.”

5. There is no science that says it is the best position for conception. It is often thought that this is the best position to try to conceive, though that opinion is largely derived from logic that says pooling as much semen near the cervix is a good thing to get pregnant. Science hasn’t determined the best position for conception.

6. A win for skin contact. Missionary allows the most skin-to-skin contact between partners. That allows for a fuller feeling of body contact and connection.

7. It’s not just for heterosexuals. Two men can have anal sex just fine in the missionary position and two women can also use missionary to rub their vulvas together, often while using toys or fingers on the clitoris.

8. It’s not just for penetrative vaginal sex. Intercrural sex is where the couple lubes up her inner thighs and he thrusts between her legs.

9. Some cultures avoid missionary completely. The Brazilian Bororo Indians do not use missionary because they find it insulting that one partner should be above the other.

10. Missionary doesn’t win popularity contests. Doggy style usually tops most surveys of sexual positions for both men and women.

💘 Wild’s Review:

My first experience with missionary sex was the loss of my virginity, cramped in the back seat of a 2006 Kia Spectra, the framework of the seat digging in my back and the door open with my head hanging out awkwardly. Luckily I wasn’t uncomfortable for too long. It was over pretty quickly. It goes without saying, I’ve since found more comfortable variations of the position.

I find it interesting that the Missionary Position offers the most skin-to-skin contact, yet is beaten out by a position like Doggy which doesn’t even involve eye contact and might be one of the least personal of common sexual positions. I wonder what that says about our culture. If I were taking the poll, missionary would be the most common sexual position I’ve found myself in, though all my real world relationships have been vanilla. I enjoy the closeness. You can get lost in your partner more easily, feel their heart racing, hear their labored breath, watch their facial expressions, and hold one another – which is awesome because the only thing better than a hug is a hug with him inside you. Missionary I think creates a unique intimacy and makes it easier to stay connected. I also don’t think it’s just for vanilla couples. There are many ways to keep it interesting, like the variations listed above, and it is easy to fit into a power exchange dynamic, which floats my boat. Between the intimacy and potential for diversity in this position, I’d say it’s definitely underrated.

I give the Missionary Position ⭐⭐⭐⭐

🎩 Experienced’s Review:

My first sexual experience was also missionary – though in bunk bed at camp with all body parts contained therein. My first experience was not over quite so quickly lol. First time jitters and all – but the deed was consummated.

I love the intimacy, and when acting in a Dominant role, I appreciate the control that Missionary affords me. Being able to adjust the pace, depth, and rhythm is important. I have actually found this position one of the easiest in which to ensure my partner orgasms without any special stimulation, which really goes to making sure there is plenty of pubic bone contact to grind against her clit. The tease and play are important for me, and this position affords me plenty of opportunity to do that – pushing her to the edge and then bringing her back. I feel like Missionary affords me the best opportunity to observe her and tailor my actions to her pleasure and to her patience.

I love feeling what my partner does with her hands – whether it is grabbing me and pulling me in, or gently stroking my back, or something in-between. I find myself watching missionary porn now and then and watching what the woman is doing both with her hands and with her legs.

But at the end of the day, the intimacy of close eye contact, the ability to whisper right in her ear while fully thrusting inside her really makes it the full sensory experience for me – touch (obviously), sight (eye contact), sound (whispering naughty thoughts), taste (plenty of opportunity to bite and nibble), and smell (hair and skin).

There are many other worthy positions, but Missionary is definitely a keeper.

I give the Missionary Position: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

I often point out that both “missionary” nor”doggie” were coined by people who were fairly disdainful of the positions.

Whether your fluffy vanilla or deepest kinky, face to face fucking is goddamn heavenly.

This is a lovely post with lovely commentary and for once I have nothing more to add besides “well said!”
