Man is the only living being who has sex not only for conceiving a child, but also for pleasure.

Sex as a way of pleasant pastime has been known for a long time: a couple of hundred years ago there were legal spouses for procreation, and beautiful courtesans for the enjoyment and realization of intimate fantasies.

Sex is the most important part of a happy relationship today. Each couple has their own preferences in bed, their own games and accessories. The world of paraphernalia for intimate life is large and constantly expanding, which makes it possible to make the intimacy of lovers unique and unforgettable.

However, against the background of diversity and novelty, there are things that have not lost their relevance over the centuries. One of them is the cancer pose, loved by almost all women. And this is not surprising, since it is in this position that the pleasure from sex increases by 70%!

Top – 5 Pose Variations

The classic position has several options, and each of them is good in its own way.

Feet together

The position is slightly different from the classic one: the girl is on all fours, but the lower limbs are tightly brought together. At the same time, the guy spreads his legs wide, fixing them to the side of the partner’s legs so that her pelvis is between them. To make it easier for the lover to enter the process, it is worth bending the lower back as much as possible, if necessary, the emphasis is fixed not on the palms, but on the elbows. The pose provides close bodily contact, but leaves the lady able to control the speed of movement and the rhythm of intercourse.

Body straight

The girl takes a classic pose, the partner hugs her from behind and enters her. Then both straighten up without losing internal contact. For maximum convenience, it is best to lean against a wall or other stable vertical surface. In this position, the partner will have full access to the breasts, nipples, thighs of the beloved, her clitoris and mouth. The lips of a man have access to the neck and shoulders of a woman, which can be fondled throughout the intercourse.

Boys stand

The emphasis on four points is performed at the very edge of the bed. When this partner stands firmly on the floor and “controls” the lady, holding her hips. In this version of the posture, the difference in the height of the partners plays an important role: for long-legged guys, you should choose higher beds, and for small stature, low surfaces so that the intimate areas of both are at the same level.

Girls stand

This option requires some physical fitness. The guy sits on the bed, sits on his knees. The girl turns her back to him and falls down, resting her palms on the floor or other piece of furniture to ensure her balance. In this case, the partner’s pelvis should be at the level of the man’s groin. In addition to an unforgettable pleasure for a lady, this position also opens up a magnificent view for a man.

On the top

A small variation of the classic position: a girl on all fours, a man behind, but at the same time does not kneel. To facilitate the entry of the penis, the lady’s thighs should be raised higher. In this position, the maximum angle of penetration of the penis into the vagina is ensured, which gives an incomparable sensation from sex. An important condition is not to rush and maintain a measured rhythm of thrusts so that the penis does not pop out at the most interesting moment.

Historical summary

The first information about the pose of cancer was found in the papyri of Ancient Greece. In those years, she was considered the pose of lionesses – large and beautiful predators. Representatives of other nations also revered her, identifying a woman who accepted this position with various animals – a rabbit, a dog. She received a similar name in Russia – the “doggy-style” pose, a more rude, colloquial and even abusive name – the cancer pose.

The roots of this “name” are of religious origin. The Church condemns sex as a pleasure and accepts only one position that is convenient for conceiving a child – the missionary position. The knee-elbow position is associated with the mating process of animals. Today, when they stopped talking about sex in a whisper behind closed doors, the pose received a modern and playful name – Doggy Style. As in the previous names, it reflects all the same sexual intercourse of animals and it is difficult to argue with that. But where did the mention of crayfish come from? 

There are two assumptions:

“Crawling on all fours” – movement on all fours, when the body has four points of support – two elbows and two knees. And it is this position that the partner takes. And the word “all fours” underwent a slight change and became just “crustaceans”. This is where the phrase “stand up crustacean”, that is, cancer, came from.

Backward movement. When a girl is in a knee-elbow position, she herself sits on the partner’s genitals and sets the rhythm with movement. At the same time, from the side it seems that she is moving backward like a cancer. This option is more reliable and, most likely, it was this association that gave the popular name for this position.

Features of “animal” sex

Men also love Doggy style, but it’s not just about sensations. The first thing that attracts them to this position is the opening view of the innermost part of the beloved’s body. In addition, the guy gets the opportunity not only to see, but also to touch any part of the girl’s body and caress her sensual intimate organs.

The sight of a lady in a pose with cancer is really exciting: the open “flower” is complemented by elastic buttocks and an arched back – such a picture will make even a member with erection problems “stand up”. And if the girl also begins to caress herself in the eyes of her beloved, it will not take long to wait for the animal impulse.

Another pleasant sight is the opportunity to watch how the penis plunges into the girl’s vagina and how wet it returns from there. This process really resembles a rough animal mating, brings sharpness to familiar relationships, makes you trust each other.

Ladies, on the other hand, enjoy the stimulation of the innermost G-spot, which the head of the penis easily finds in this position, and the possibility of obeying their master, who satisfies her and her desires. This leads to the fact that girls often achieve not one, but several orgasms in one intercourse.

Pros and cons of the pose

The position of cancer has many positive moments and advantages, and this is not only the fact that every time she gets an orgasm and moral satisfaction for the girl. There are elements of BDSM in it, since in this position all control over sex is given to the man, that is, he acts as a dominant. Also, the partner gets access to all erogenous parts of the lady’s body – breasts, clitoris and can caress them with his free hands.

In the doggystyle position, it is easy to indulge in fisting and rimming, it is convenient for both classic vaginal sex and anal penetration. It is also worth noting the gorgeous view that opens up to the body of a supple and submissive woman. And for lovers of threesome sex, this position will be a godsend for double penetration: a lady will be able to satisfy two partners at once, they will provide her with double satisfaction at the same time.

Another significant plus of the position is that it allows you to be given a sudden grip of passion anywhere and at any time. It is possible to get pleasure in a quick way with its help in an elevator, a fitting room, a car, a cinema, an entrance and other interesting places. The position of partners can also be different: vertical, horizontal, with emphasis at the top and bottom, and in many more options.

However, in addition to the positive aspects, there are also negative ones, which are also worth remembering before surrendering to love pleasure. According to a survey conducted in the United States, 56% of guys have never tried this position, and even more women – 64%. 

So, some girls do not like the dog’s pose because of the negative associations with its name. There is an opinion that sex in this position is characteristic of women of easy virtue, and young virgins, in order not to drop their own opinion in the eyes of their beloved, refuse it.

There are ladies for whom eye contact with a partner, kisses and mutual caresses are important, and in this position the man is in the back, which excludes such a possibility. A guy can make up for the lack of affection by caressing other sensitive areas, kisses of the back and neck, caresses of a woman’s mouth. They do not accept the pose of a cancer lady who needs to dominate in bed: this pose deprives them of control over the process and puts them in a subordinate position.

Some men also have negative emotions: orgasm in this situation occurs faster than in classic intercourse. Therefore, guys who want to practice Doggy-style should learn how to control ejaculation, be able to stop in time to achieve a joint peak of passion. You can also try other positions at the beginning of bed adventures, and go to “animal” sex at the end, or alternate several positions.

Conception in the “animal” position

There are positions in which the probability of pregnancy is significantly reduced or reduced to almost zero. The knee-elbow position is not at all one of them, since it is in this position that the probability of conceiving a baby is maximum. Obstetricians-gynecologists and urologists, consulting families wishing to become parents, advise exactly the position of cancer for the appearance of the long-awaited baby.

The reason for this “fertility” is the physiological position of women and men. The curved back of the lady allows you to raise the pelvis and bend the cervix towards the seed. The partner manages to penetrate deep enough into the body, to practically rest against the uterus.

As a result, sperm cells travel faster and in greater numbers to reach the egg, which increases the likelihood of fertilization. Also, if a lady wants to become pregnant, after such sex she is recommended to lie on her stomach for several minutes, while lifting her ass a little higher to ensure the flow of sperm to the uterus. 

Doggy during pregnancy

The doggy pose is ideal for lovemaking during all stages of pregnancy, especially the latter. In this position, not the slightest pressure on the child arises, the muscles of the uterus do not tense, therefore gynecologists recommend it for all future parents. Another concern is the deep penetration of the penis, which should also not bother the lovers: the stimulation of the cervix in this position is small and, if there is no indication for sexual rest, it can be used by a couple.

How to prolong pleasure tips for girls

Although the position is simply intended for vivid emotional and physiological sensations in women, there are ways to enhance it several times. According to sexologists, a variety of tricks can help with this.

Butt plug

The accessory is gently and gently inserted into the girl’s anus before or after the immersion of the penis. In addition to stimulating the anus, the toy will help to narrow the partner’s vagina, which will improve the stimulation of the G-spot. Parallel thrusts of the penis and fondling with a plug will allow you to feel all the charm of double penetration without a second partner. The pleasure received by the lady will certainly be reflected in the feelings and the partner.

Reduction of legs

By squeezing or crossing her lower limbs, the girl will also achieve the effect of narrowing the vagina. In this position, it may be difficult to insert the penis, so it is better to do this after the penis is in the woman’s body. This will increase the friction of the male organ against the walls of the vagina, enter the lady deeply and tightly, which will lead to the satisfaction of both partners.

G-spot stimulation

The fact that a girl wants to get a point effect, she should inform her partner about this before intercourse. It is also advisable to clarify whether the beloved knows where she is and how to get to her.

If the answer is negative, you need to tell that you can find the cherished point on the front wall of the vagina 4-5 cm from its entrance. It is more convenient to get her with a penis in a position where the girl’s pelvis is slightly lower, and the penis enters a little from above and at an angle. If everything is done correctly, the sensations from such intercourse will be incredible, and the orgasm will not be long in coming.

In the event that pain or discomfort arises during contact, the dog position should be abandoned and a gynecologist should be consulted. Perhaps discomfort is a signal of health problems or developing pathologies.

Fun facts about doggy style

It is noteworthy that the doggy pose is the most famous and revered among the people. More than 1600 songs have been written about her in different countries of the world, and the most popular is “PIMP” by 50 Cent.

Although the name reflects the process of intercourse of only a few animals – dogs, rabbits, the number of animals choosing her for procreation is much greater. Even such large animals as elephants, camels and even giraffes assume the knee-elbow position. At the same time, great apes do not accept the pose of cancer and more wander around the missionary. It is preferred by whales and dolphins, as well as some insects.

The dog’s pose is one of the best for a mutual orgasm and getting vivid sensations from sex. However, you should not dwell on it, because even the most pleasant sensations can get bored. It is worth alternating between different poses and trying new things in sex, so that intimate life brings only joy and positive emotions.
