Doggy Style - Variants

Variants

Most 'doggy style' entry positions can be used for either vaginal or anal penetration. There are several forms, including:

Classic doggy style

The receiving partner is on all fours with his/her torso near-horizontal, while the active partner is either standing or on his/her knees and holds the receiving partner firmly by the waist or buttocks while penetrating from behind.

Leapfrog position

The receiving partner's torso is angled downwards by resting on the elbows or upper arms, or resting the head on the floor. The hands are then free to be in front or back between the legs for manual stimulation of either partner. The position allows the penetrating partner to raise his/her own hips above those of the receiving partner for maximum penetration and to reach the G-Spot. This position can also be used in bondage play.

Froggy style

The receiving partner is flat on his/her torso, while the active partner lies on top of or close to him/her, while penetrating from behind. A variation of the spreadeagle, this position is often made more comfortable by placing a pillow under the receiving partner's hips.

Arms back

The active partner pulls the receiving partner's arms backwards, holding them at the wrists, or ties the receiving partner's hands behind his/her back, making the receiving partner dependent on the active partner to maintain balance.

Furniture support

For support, the receiving partner can hold onto or lie across furniture, such as the side of a bed, couch, chair or stool. Furniture can also be used in bondage play.
