01Why chair sex is so good

Sitting holds him still and upright, so you get deep, steady contact without anyone holding themselves up. Your feet are on the floor, which means you can ride for much longer than you can on a bed.

You're also face to face and close enough to kiss, bite and whisper.

02How to have sex on a chair

  1. 1

    Pick the right chair

    Use a sturdy chair with no arms and no wheels. A dining chair is perfect.

  2. 2

    Sit him down

    He sits with his feet flat and his knees slightly apart.

  3. 3

    Climb into his lap

    Face him, straddle his thighs and lower yourself onto him.

  4. 4

    Use the floor

    Push with your feet to rock and lift. Hold his shoulders or the back of the chair.

03Chair positions to try

  • Lap ride

    Facing him, arms around his neck. Close, deep and easy.

  • Lap dance

    Sit in his lap facing away and grind. He holds your hips or your breasts.

  • Bent over

    Stand, bend forward and hold the seat while he stands behind you.

04Make chair sex hotter

  • Keep some clothes on. A skirt pushed up feels far more urgent.
  • Tie his hands behind the chair with a scarf and take your time. See light bondage.
  • Lean back and let him kiss your breasts while you move.
  • Do it in a new room. The kitchen counts.
