Help & FAQ

Positions are our core content — over 200 sex positions, each with 3D-rendered illustrations showing exactly how they work. Every position includes details like difficulty, required flexibility, and what makes it unique.

Guides are longer educational articles covering technique, communication, anatomy, and more. Think of them as the "how and why" behind the positions.

Variations are alternate versions of positions — small tweaks to angle, leg placement, or support that change the experience. Most positions have several variations to explore.

The position finder lets you narrow down positions by what you're looking for. You can filter by entry angle, who's on top, body position, sex type, and features like face-to-face contact or accessibility. Combine multiple filters to find exactly what fits. Filters work with the collection pages too.

Collections are curated groups of positions organized by theme — like "Beginner Friendly," "Standing Positions," or "Deep Penetration." They're a quick way to browse positions that share a common trait without manually filtering. Each collection has its own page with all the positions that belong to it.

Click the bookmark icon on any position, guide, or forum post. Your bookmarks are saved to your account and accessible from the Bookmarks page in your profile menu. You can bookmark as many items as you want. Remove a bookmark by clicking the icon again.

Some content on the site is marked as mature (18+). You can see the titles of mature content in listings, but to view the full content you need to be logged in and have confirmed your age in your profile settings. Users under 18 cannot access mature content. This is a safety measure, not a paywall — the content is still free.

A checklist is a personal (or shared) list of sex positions you want to try. Think of it as a bucket list for the bedroom. You can add any position from the site to your checklist, mark positions as tried, and track your progress. It's a fun way to explore together with a partner or keep track of what you've experienced.

Go to your checklist page from the profile menu. You can create multiple lists — maybe one for solo exploration, one with a partner, one for aspirational goals. Give each list a name and start adding positions to it from any position page.

Yes. Each checklist has a PIN-based invite system. Generate an invite PIN from your checklist settings and share it with someone — they enter the PIN on their end to join the list. Both of you can then see and update the same checklist.

A shared checklist is truly shared — both participants see the same list and can mark positions as tried. When one person checks something off, the other person sees it too. It's a live, collaborative list, not two separate copies.

If the checklist owner deletes the list or closes their account, the list is removed for everyone. If a participant (non-owner) leaves a shared list, the list continues for the owner and any other participants.

From your checklist, click the invite or share option. You'll get a unique PIN code. Share that PIN with the person you want to invite — they can enter it on their checklists page to join. PINs are single-use and expire after a set period for security.

The forums are organized into categories (called forums). Each forum contains topics created by users. Topics are threaded discussions — you can reply to the original post or to other replies. Topics show the most recent activity first in listings. You can vote on posts, bookmark them, report inappropriate content, and share content from around the site.

To create a topic, navigate to the forum you want to post in and click the "New Topic" button. Give it a title and write your post. To reply, open any topic and use the reply form at the bottom. You need to be logged in to post or reply.

Every post and comment has upvote and downvote buttons. Voting is a way to signal whether content is helpful, relevant, or well-written. Votes affect the author's reputation score — upvotes add points, downvotes subtract them. You need to be logged in to vote. You can change your vote at any time.

Click the report icon (megaphone) on any post or comment. You'll be asked to select a reason for the report. Reports go to moderators for review. You can report posts, comments, messages, and user profiles. Don't abuse the report system — false reports may result in action against your own account.

Moderators review reported content and can take action: removing content, issuing warnings, or restricting accounts. When a moderator acts on a report, the reporter is notified of the outcome. Moderation is handled by real people, not automated systems. Decisions are based on community guidelines and context.

Visit someone's profile and click the "Add Friend" button. They'll receive a friend request notification and can accept or decline. Friendship is mutual — both people have to agree. When someone accepts your request, you automatically follow each other.

A partner is a special type of friend — someone you're in a romantic or sexual relationship with. You can mark any existing friend as your partner, and they'll need to confirm it. Partners are displayed on your profile. You can have multiple partners — we're inclusive of all relationship types.

There are a few possible reasons: the person has disabled friend requests in their settings, you don't meet their reputation threshold (they can set a minimum), there's a 30-day cooldown active from a previously declined request, or there's a block between you. Build your reputation by contributing to the community — post in forums, vote on content, and engage positively.

When someone declines your friend request (or partner request), there's a 30-day waiting period before you can send another request to that person. This prevents harassment. The person who declined can always send you a request from their end at any time — the cooldown only applies to the person who was declined.

To unfriend someone, visit their profile and use the option in the menu. Unfriending is silent — they won't receive a notification. To end a partnership, use the "Sever Partner" option in the profile menu. Ending a partnership doesn't unfriend you — you'll still be friends unless you explicitly unfriend. Your follows also remain intact.

Visit someone's profile and click the Message option in the menu, or start a new conversation from your messages inbox. Type your message and send. Conversations are private between you and the recipient. You can send text messages and share content from around the site.

Direct messaging has a trust gate to prevent spam and abuse. To unlock messaging, you need to reach the Frisky reputation tier (250+ rep) and have no content that's been removed by moderators. You build reputation by posting in forums, getting upvotes, and engaging with the community. This ensures that people who message others are established community members, not drive-by spammers.

Each user controls how they receive messages through their settings. Some users accept messages from anyone, some require approval first (your message goes into a request queue and they decide whether to accept the conversation), and some have messaging disabled entirely. If someone has approval mode on, they'll see your message request and can accept or decline it.

Go to Settings and look for the messaging section. You can set your preference to Open (anyone with messaging unlocked can message you), Approval (messages go to a request queue first), or Disabled (no incoming messages). You can also set a reputation threshold — only users above a certain reputation level can initiate conversations with you.

Your reputation score places you in a tier that reflects your standing in the community. Higher tiers unlock additional features and show other members that you're a trusted contributor. Your tier is visible on your profile as a badge. Reputation is earned through positive participation — upvotes, bookmarks, shares, and engagement from other members. Patreon supporters earn reputation faster through a multiplier on all earned points.

Reputation points come from community activity: creating forum topics, replying to discussions, having your content upvoted, bookmarked, or shared by others, getting your poll suggestions accepted, and more. Downvotes on your content subtract points. Patreon supporters receive a reputation multiplier — the higher the tier, the bigger the boost on all earned points. The system rewards consistent, positive contribution over time. Gaming the system (vote manipulation, spam posting) will result in moderation action.

Some features require a minimum level of community trust before they become available. Direct messaging requires reaching the Frisky reputation tier (250+ rep) with no moderated content. Friend requests can be gated by the recipient's reputation threshold setting. These gates exist to prevent abuse while keeping the community safe for everyone. Keep contributing positively and features will unlock naturally.

The leaderboard ranks community members by reputation score. There's an all-time leaderboard showing cumulative scores and a monthly leaderboard showing who's been most active recently. It's a fun way to see who's contributing the most. Admin boosts are factored into scores for members who've made exceptional contributions.

You'll receive notifications for activity that's relevant to you: replies to your forum topics, replies to your comments, friend requests, partner requests, message requests, votes on your content, report outcomes, and more. Notifications appear in the bell icon in the navigation bar. Click a notification to go directly to the relevant content.

When you create a topic or reply to one, you automatically follow it and receive notifications for new replies. You can toggle this with the bell icon on the topic toolbar — bell on means you'll get notifications, bell off means you've muted the topic. Muting overrides everything, including auto-follow. You can unmute at any time to start receiving notifications again.

Visit their profile and click the Follow button. Following is one-way — you don't need their permission. When you follow someone, their posts will appear in your feed. They'll receive a notification that you followed them. Unfollow at any time by clicking the button again.

Go to Settings and look for the notification preferences. You can control which types of notifications you receive — toggle on or off for categories like topic replies, votes, friend activity, and more. This lets you tune the signal-to-noise ratio to your preference.

Go to Settings from your profile menu. You can add a bio (up to 500 characters, plain text), change your profile visibility settings, and manage your tags. Your bio appears on your public profile and is visible based on your visibility settings.

Go to the avatar editor from your profile menu or settings. You can customize your avatar by choosing a base character, then selecting hair, makeup or facial hair, and clothes. The editor shows a live preview as you make selections. Hit the Randomize button for a surprise combo, then tweak from there. Save when you're happy with it.

Tags are optional labels you can add to your profile — things like your age range, gender, sexual orientation, relationship status, and comfort zone. They help other community members know a bit about you at a glance. Tags appear on your profile as pills. You control which tags you add, and you can set visibility so only certain audiences can see them.

In Settings, you'll find visibility controls for each section of your profile: bio, tags, stats, posts, followers, following, friends, and partners. Each section can be set to "Everyone" (public, including logged-out visitors), "Members" (logged-in users only), "Friends" (only your friends can see it), or "Only Me" (private). Note that blocked users see the same view as anonymous visitors, regardless of their logged-in status.

Go to Settings and look for the account section. You can update your email address and change your password from there. You'll need to confirm your current password to make changes. If you change your email, you'll receive a confirmation link at the new address.

We collect what's necessary to run the site: your email address, your password (encrypted, we can never see it), your profile information (what you choose to share), and your activity on the site (posts, votes, bookmarks, etc.). We don't sell your data. We don't run targeted ads. We don't share your information with third parties. Your browsing of content doesn't require an account and isn't tracked to an identity.

Visit their profile and click the Block button. Blocking is mutual in effect — they can't see your profile details (they see the same view as a logged-out visitor), they can't message you, and any existing friendship is immediately severed. They won't be notified that you blocked them. You can unblock at any time from their profile. Note: blocked users can block you back.

Go to Settings and look for the account closure option. You'll need to confirm with your password. Once confirmed, your account is immediately closed and you're signed out. This starts a 30-day cooling-off period — your data is preserved during this time in case you change your mind. After 30 days, your account is automatically and permanently anonymized. Admins cannot close their own accounts.

Yes, during the 30-day cooling-off period. Log back in with your email and password — you'll land on a reactivation page with two options:

• Reactivate — your account is restored to full active status, as if nothing happened.
• Delete Now — skip the 30-day wait and permanently anonymize your account immediately. You'll need to type "DELETE" to confirm.

Once the 30-day period ends (or you choose Delete Now), the process is irreversible.

After the 30-day cooling-off period (or if you choose Delete Now), your account is permanently anonymized:

• Destroyed: avatar, bookmarks, follows, blocks, tags, checklists, direct messages, votes, friendships, notifications, and reputation history.
• Anonymized: your username becomes "Deleted User," your email and IP addresses are wiped, and your password is randomized. No one — including us — can recover your identity.
• Preserved: forum posts and comments remain to keep discussion threads intact, but they're attributed to "Deleted User" instead of your name.

During the 30-day cooling-off period, none of this happens — your data is fully intact and recoverable through reactivation.
