How to Have Sex in the Reverse Missionary Position
- The husband lies on his back in bed with his legs together.
- The wife straddles her husband while facing him and helps him enter her.
- She leans forward and lies on top of him with her legs outstretched on each side of his legs.
The husband holds onto his wife’s butt while one or both of them make a rolling motion with their hips to make love to each other. This sex position provides exquisite clitoral stimulation from his penis when the wife rolls her pelvis back and out.
Why You’ll Love the Reverse Missionary Sex Position
For Her: This pose’s deep penetration and clitoral stimulation are fantastic. Try pressing your clitoris against your husband’s body when he’s entirely inside you, and make a grinding or circular motion with your pelvis. It feels so good! The body-to-body closeness of this position is very intimate, too.
For Him: This is one of those sex positions where you let her do her thing on you while you enjoy the ride. Reverse Missionary also helps you last longer during sex and allows you to hold on to her butt and maybe guide her motions. Try clasping your hands over her butt and pulling her against you, so her clitoris rubs firmly against your body.

This position is very similar to Reverse Grinding the Corn 2, except her legs are outside of his. If she’s willing, she can lean up and push her breasts out letting me lean into them which is fun.
When the wife is enthusiastic and willing to participate, this is a great position. It is easy for her to stimulate her clit against me and let her get the angle she needs. It frees up my hands to touch her wherever she wants/needs. And we get to have that face to face intimacy. Because it isn’t a lot of stimulation for me it is very easy for me to hold back and let her go as long as she wants. 99% of the fun for me is watching her have a blast. 5/5
However, when the wife isn’t in the mood to be the active one, it is very difficult for me to do much of anything. My body is pinned, my hips are pinned down, and the angle isn’t great for thrusting. 2/5
The wife gives it a 3/5 because she doesn’t like being the active one but does like the position in the rare moments she’s in the mood for the position.

So.. The Reverse Missionary..is basically my wife laying Chest Up
on TOP of Me..?..While I lay down on the bed…
Is this a variation of
“Woman on Top” position?
Or something entirely different?
CFSP says
She lays on top of you chest down.

So .When a couple engaged in Reverse Missionary.. Essentially..the female
(wife)..lays straight down on her male partner,(husband)..
So Intercourse will occur insertion of male penis ..pushing up into the wife
CFSP says
Yes. Exactly.

Wife review: This is my go-to position! My husband loves getting me to climax first and this position drives me nuts (in a good way)!
If I lift myself up on my arms, my husband can reach my breasts with his mouth and that is very stimulating everywhere.
I find that spreading my knees wider can change the sensations and be an enjoyable variation.

Our new favorite to finish at the same time!! Don’t feel limited to putting your legs on the outside and his straight, it works better for us to do every over leg

Does her Squatting down,while doing Reverse Missionary add a different sensation to sex?
