I also find the up and down and action tiring, and i am by no means unfit, my bloke used to comment that i did put too much pressure on his chest after a while.(oops) I definately agree that grinding is so the way to go, G- spot stimulation everytime, and then slip the up and down action in. Just make sure when he is about to come you try and stick at the one thing, unless you want him to go that little bit longer.:)
i love when my girl is on top like this. she has two little tricks that all girls should do. #1 she will lay with her chest on mine. raise her hips and reach between her legs and grab the bass of my c*. then go up and down just on the tip. so amazing #2. while she's riding me she will sit my up and reach behind her and play with my balls. she will also rub hard on the place between you balls and a hole as i'm cumming. its INSANE. ladies do this to your man and he will scream
This is one of my absolute favorite positions. I love how i have control over my man and it turns me (and him!!) on so much. I love the ability to control the depth and speed of penetration, and he likes to sit back and watch me ride him hard. It allows his hands to be free to explore my body, playing with my tits (which i abso-freaking-lutely love) and massaging my clit and/or ass. Some tips:
*try this but lying down on top of your man, it allows more intimacy and you can kiss and neck better, plus there's the added hotness of even more skin-on-skin, and more ability to thrust
*try the cowgirl position while sitting up in a swivelling desk chair... its so much fun!
*in a car, this position is great, straddling your man while he is sitting up... i love the added closeness and he can easily wrap his arms around me and bring us even closer, or play with my ass. also, it provides amazing clitoral stimulation against his pelvic region. god, I'm getting so wet just thinking about it.
*be sure to vary the speed and depth of how you ride your man; mix it up from quickly moving up and down, to nice short little thrusts that only go about halfway down his penis or just around the tip, then slowing down, savouring every last inch of his rock hard shaft to the base until it's completely inside you, and take a moment to just sit there; while you sit straddling him with his cock fully inside, surprise your man by squeezing the muscles of your vagina... it's like a massage for his penis while he's inside you! also, grind against his body, trying not to release any of his penis (you can use him for support, putting one hand on his shoulder, and one hand behind you on his leg or the bed for support) and begin to swivel your hips in a circular motion, every now and then completely switching the speed and/or direction... this will be such an amazing treat for your man, because he'll never know what to expect, and his eyes will roll into the back of his head with the insane pleasure. at the same time, you won't be able to get enough of him inside you, and you enjoy the intensely pleasurable sensations that will most DEFINITELY lead to orgasm, and usually simultaneously. ;)
*another great aspect of this position is when i get tired or can't ride him anymore, like after i orgasm, and he wants to finish off, is he takes my hips into his hands, and can move me up and down his shaft while i lay panting on his chest. that way he gets to have a little control at the last couple seconds or so, while still having the stimulating benefits of me being on top. =)
This is my favorite position because I can do so many moves that make my bf want me more. he loves it when I am doing it then start to sway my hips and grind on him. It is so erotic for both of us
From leaning forward with my hands on the sides of his head & letting him do the thrusting, next, up with hands on his chest. Then sitting up full rocking my pelvis front to back (nice clit contact for a hands-free orgasm), to leaning back so I can reach his scrotum. Also squatting makes up & down action for him easier for me, just can't do that one very long.
I agree with the people saying they get tired on top... It's probably harder for women on top than the men because i could hump all day long if that's what it envolved but we have to go up and down which requires a lot more effort...
But it's always a real help that my boyfriend helps me out so we're both doing the work (:
When i'm riding on top, I like to lean back, but for the longest time he never would play with my clit. Lately he's caught on. =) But, when you lean back, your clit is exposed and when he plays with it, basically fingers it, it helps your orgasm come faster and it makes the experience MUCH more exotic.
Most of the replies stress the position's physical rewards. Remember, the brain in the most important sex organ. A woman on top can let her dominant fantasies run wild. My favorite is a role-reversal in which I'm the masterful "husband" fucking my submissive male "wife." It's even better when I lie down full-length on him and wrap my legs around his. I passionately French kiss him and whisper: "You're a great piece of ass. I could fuck you all night!" I think it's good for a man's ego to know that he can be used for a woman's pleasure, just as he uses her.
This is so hot, and my gf and I have done this also. She teases me when we're in this position. She calls me her "little bitch" when she's on top, which in reality is kind of funny since I'm over 6 feet tall and weigh 280. Still, it is erotic and a lot of fun for both of us.
I totally, totally, totally LOVE this position. Watching my girl gyrate her hips, her beautiful breasts bouncing up and down, this way and that, and her facial expressions changing in ecstasy works wonders for me. The bonuses include my hands are free to wonder down to her petals, clit which I could stroke as she heaves, or I could grab her but cheeks and spread them apart for deeper penetration, and I last long enough to watch her cum and cum in exhaustion before I take time to fuck her till I cum too... The feeling of being dominated for a change is awesome.
