Sometimes the bed is too far away. He pushes you up against the wall, you hook a leg around his hip, and it's happening right there. Standing sex is urgent and a bit rough around the edges, and that's exactly the appeal.

01Why standing sex is so hot
It feels like you couldn't wait. Clothes half on, hands everywhere, a wall at your back. It works in a hallway, a shower or a kitchen, which makes it perfect for a quickie.
It does take a little setup. Height, balance and grip all matter, so use the tips below and it stops being awkward.
02How to have sex standing up
-
1
Find a wall
Put your back against a wall or door. It holds you both steady.
-
2
Lift one leg
Wrap one leg around his hip. He holds your thigh from underneath.
-
3
Fix the height
If he's taller, he bends his knees or you stand on a step or a low stool.
-
4
Go short and deep
Short, firm thrusts work best. Long ones make him slip out.
03Standing positions to try
-
Face to face
One leg up, arms around his neck, kissing the whole time.
-
From behind
Hands flat on the wall, hips pushed back, him standing behind you.
-
The lift
He picks you up, your legs around his waist, your back on the wall. Strong legs needed.
04Make it easier and hotter
- Use a counter, a desk or the arm of a sofa to perch on.
- Wear heels if you need a few extra inches.
- In the shower, use a non slip mat and a silicone lube, because water washes natural wetness away.
- Tell him exactly what you want while he has you pinned.
