Expert sex positions are all well and good, but as I've said time and time again it's only worth doing difficult sex positions if there's a big pay off. There's nothing wrong with the classic, easy sex positions. In fact, often the best sex positions are the easiest ones because you can actually relax and focusing on enjoying it, without worrying that the tiniest shift in weight distribution is going to cause you to topple over and headbutt your partner so hard they cut their lip (One time, OK?! I did that one time.).
But can we go beyond classic? Easier than easy? What about sex positions for when you're feeling lazy as f*ck? That kind of position that you do while your show is buffering, while you wait for pizza to arrive, or just plain old Sunday morning hangover sex? Sometimes after a night of wild, pushing-your-boundaries sex you find that it's time to to settle into something a little easier lest you sprain something. I've scoured some positions and come up with the laziest ones that are still totally hot. Some of these may take a little maneuvering to get into initially, but they're some of the closest, most stationary positions around.
Here are eight lazy, lazy sex positions, because lazy weekends mean lazy everything. (And keep in mind, these positions work with two women as well!)
1. Sideways Straddle
How To Do It: This is one of those that's tricky to get into. As you can see you need to straddle his leg, so if you start with him laying down and then bend one knee, you can fit yourself in there. If his head is 12 o'clock, you should be aiming to face about 7 o'clock. And then you can grind away.
Laziness Level: Medium for you, super high for him. He gets to just lay there, though he may do some hip thrusting, and the focus on slow grinding rather than thrusting, plus having his leg as a brace, makes things extra lazy.
2. The Cross
How To Do It: He has to lie on his side, then you scootch down perpendicular to him, with your knees over his hips.
Laziness Level: Ordering delivery from a restaurant down the block laziness. You both get to lie down and you're working with a very limited range of motion. Plus, there's potential for lots of clit stimulation, always a win.
3. Sofa Brace
How To Do It: This one isn't difficult to get into, it's the doggy style you know and love but with the girl over the end of a sofa, or if you're doing it on the floor you can use a table or whatever is available.
Laziness Level: Medium. He has to do some work still, but instead of holding yourself up by your arms, which can get tiring if your partner is thrusting hard in doggy style, you get something soft to rest on. Combine that with deep penetration and it's a definite win.
4. Sitting
How To Do It: He sits cross-legged, you sit cross-legged on top of him. You can grind in circles or move up in down, but there's not quick movements o thrusting here.
Laziness Level: So much sitting. You know when you kind of collapse into a hug? That's basically what this position is. Move as slowly as you want, or not at all, there's enough deep penetration that it will still feel great.
5. Side-By-Side
How To Do It: You both get to lay down, but you may have to work a little bit to figure out the leg positions, try lifting your top leg higher or lower until you find a position where he can enter you. Then lay and chill.
Laziness Level: This is like the fourth time you tell your TV: "YES, I'M STILL WATCHING DAMMIT!" on a Sunday afternoon. You're relaxed, you don't want to go anywhere, and you don't have to.
6. Sitting
How To Do It: It's great for two women, but for everyone else too. One person sits on the edge of the bed or couch, and the other kneels on the floor. Perfect for cunnilingus or for fingering.
Laziness Level: Medium— yes, you both have to sit up but the both of you get to sit in comfortable positions. Great if you want to stay in the position for a long time.
7. Vibrator
How To Do It: You can incorporate vibrators into almost any sex position, but her lying down with her legs spread and you kneeling in-between gives you an opportunity for an amazing finger-vibrator combo.
Laziness Level: It depends on the position, but adding a vibrator into the mix feels incredible while giving your fingers/tongue a break when they need them.
8. Spooning
How To Do It: You already know how to spoon. You love to spoon. Just a little leg repositioning and maybe some lube means you can turn your favorite cuddling into a great sex position.
Laziness Level: It's basically like texting your roommate from the same room instead of talking to them. You're close, you're intimate, you're laying down. The ultimate lazy sex position.
