Charlene Douglas, a seasoned sex therapist, delves into the nuances of the ‘most effective’ sexual position for partners, exploring both its benefits and drawbacks.
With her expertise in intimacy, Douglas provides insights into what can enhance experiences between partners. When posed with the question about the ‘most effective’ position for reaching orgasm, she had a definitive response.
While individual experiences vary, she pointed out that numerous couples find one position particularly exciting.
In a conversation with LADbible Stories during an Honest Box Session, Douglas addressed a variety of topics, including popular turn-ons.
Upon being asked about ‘position effectiveness’, she chuckled, presuming the inquirer was referencing effectiveness in achieving orgasm.
She explained: “A lot of people say that doggystyle is effective in terms of having an orgasm.
“It can be very sexually stimulating because if you are the person that is bent over, the position can feel very nice, you can feel a sense of vulnerability there.
“For the person pounding behind, they get to see the visual of your bum in the air, arched back, and whatever it is they want to see, be it the penis or the vulva, they get to see that before they enter as well.
“Usually, people say they cum quickly from that position as well.”
Douglas did mention some ‘issues’ with this position concerning emotional connection, despite its effectiveness for climax.
She added: “It is probably not the most intimate position because you are not looking into each other’s eyes, so you can’t really tell what your partner is feeling as such or thinking.
“But in terms of the physical, the bang, bang, bang, get to the point, oftentimes people will say that is the one they will go for.”
Douglas also shared the most frequent inquiry she receives when people learn about her profession.
She revealed: “So oftentimes, I’ll go to a bar and people will find out that I’m a sex therapist and they’ll say to me, ‘How many times should you really be having sex like in a week?’
“And they’re all waiting for my answer. Everyone leans in waiting for me to give that number to work out whether they’re in the normal range or not.”
According to her, ‘statistically speaking,’ the average frequency for most couples is once a week.
