These 3 Sex Positions Are the Most Likely to Make You Orgasm
In fact, you don’t need to be very creative at all. Men’s Health surveyed almost 500 Women’s Health readers about the sex positions that bring them to climax most often, and the top three were tried-and-true moves you’re probably familiar with: cowgirl or woman on top (35 percent), doggy style (25 percent), and missionary or man on top (23 percent).
Reverse cowgirl (woman on top, facing away) and spooning each brought in only 5 percent of the vote, and rear-entry brought up the, er, rear with 4 percent.
