The Chairman Sex Position Is Just What You Need to Spice Up Reverse Cowgirl

If you’re looking to add a new move to your sexual bucket list, allow us to introduce you to the chairman. It’s basically reverse cowgirl, but as that whole “chair” bit in the name strongly implies, everyone gets to sit down.

“Don’t be afraid to modify the traditional cowgirl for your needs,” says sex expert for SKYN, Gigi Engle. “With the chair, you're not doing as much up and down bouncing, which can cause a serious thigh burn. Not only does your partner get a great rear view, but if you like, you can rest your hands on their legs for a little extra leverage.”

You can also tweak the chairman to your liking, whether that’s by adjusting the speed of the thrusting, the depth of penetration, or where, exactly, you want body parts rubbing together.

“When your partner (of any gender) is on top, they can take full control of the rhythm and speed of sex—which maximizes their pleasure while the receiver gets to go along for the (literal) ride,” says Engle. The person on top can lower themselves gradually for slower, shallower penetration (especially handy if you experience pain during sex, your partner is particularly well-endowed, or if they’re sporting a seriously large strap-on) or hold themselves up on their feet for extra deep penetration. “It’s also optimal for bringing in toys,” says Engle. Pretty much any vibrator works, as do penis rings and butt toys.

If you’re ready to take the chairman’s seat (or actually ~be~ the chairman’s seat) here are some ways to get started.
