Why women prefer the missionary position?

Why do you prefer variations of the Missionary Position to other positions? Don't get me wrong, I love variety. But, when it comes to Sex, there's just something about the Guy on top that makes it better than the other positions. I love the fact that its great for kissing and the skin to skin contact is more than in any other position. I love the feeling of a guys weight on top of me and the different variations for placing your legs. there's way to many advantages in this position. What are your reasons...

  • Mine is missionary too. Cowgirl second. I think it's an age thing? The older we get we appreciate missionary more. It's much more intimate. I prefer the closeness The control is better. Can get more deeper and things feel tighter and sexier. Can do a lot of variations in it with the hands, legs and mouth.

  • I can't tell you why women like to be on bottom but I like to be on top so I can admire her body while I pleasure her. I would like to be the one on the bottom some time to see what she does though.

    PS: I'm not experenced in other positions so that might make my comment nul and voide.

  • i enjoy the missionary best for a beginning of our love making when he is on top of me ..he has total control over me and what he does to me...and then I love to be moved in every other lustfull postion after that...

    • Come to think of it, when it comes to Sex its almost natural to just lay down and grab your guy on top of you.

  • i like the wight of him and the fact I'm not in control, I'm bit of a control freak so it good to be submisive, plus we get to be close and kiss and whisper things in his ear,

    • Ha! I know what you mean. I tend to feel like I'm the dominant one in this relationship, so in bed, I want to be controlled. He better pin me down by my wrists and make me feel like a Woman. Lol.

    • lol I know what you mean I somethimes want to be held down by wrists and controlled but he won't as he says he would get carried away and hurt me, he is strong and I'm tiny, so got a point dnt stop me from wanting it

    • Same here! He's like twice my size! He used to hold himself up in Missionary cause he thought he was gonna crush me! Lol. Now he knows I can take it. Its a turn on to feel pinned beneath him. I think we were meant to be squished during sex. Lol. He throws all his weight on me and it doesn't bother me.

  • 1) We don't have t anything much. The guy does more work.

    2) More intimate than other positions

    3) You can kiss and look into each others eyes

    • Oh yesss, the eye contact.

    • I think a girl should still do "work" while she's on bottom. keeping in rhythm takes some effort. :)

    • I work more when I'm on the bottom. I buck my hips and meet his thrusts, scratch his back, use my legs etc...

  • Not all women prefer missionary.

    • I said most. Ofcourse not all.

    • not even most, necessarily. that's kind of a bad generalization to make.

    • Well, there is a reason it is the most used position of all.

  • ... doggy, has to be doggy

  • I think girls like it because girls like to be submissive, whether they want to admit it or not. It's also the most intimate position in the book. Girls love intimacy and for guys to take their time.

    • girls like to be submissive whether they want to admit it or not?! ...no. no you didn't.

    • I'm seeing some fairly compelling evidence that he did

    • Didn't mean to put it that way. Girls like that, it's in their nature- just like men want to be dominant in certain situations. It's hormonalll

  • from what I can remember from a documentary on sexual intamacy (I was drunk so it's sketchy) it is all to do with the intemacy of the position - the skin contact,eye contact and being able to see every thing that's going on. its also to do with the amount of cliteral stimulation as there as such a large amont of contact. but to me I love missionary (legs on my shoulders variation ) due to the deep penetration and being able to see my partners face.

  • even I love this position with girls and by keeping girls legs up and doing it hard

  • A lot of women prefer doggie.

    • doggie is good too when you just want to get bit wild, but somethimes it nice to be close.

  • My Wife likes it because it puts me in charge. she likes me to be in charge in bed.

  • Yes I also like it. The skin contact is good. U feel submissive to him at your own leissure

  • Well for me it feels more femnine position. Seeing on top of me, carassing his buttocks, kissing, well this makes this my fav

  • Urgh missionary is so boring

    • Maybe you're notdoing it right!

  • Nope not me. I prefer when he is seated and I am seated on top of him, the kissing is great and I am in control.

    • Zzzzzz

    • lol

  • more close and intimate for them

    they don't really have to do anything
